...Looking at the 8 years of Obama, I'd say we were dang blessed to have the Bushes.   

That I will definitely agree with.  I will always say I am damm glad we had President Bush 43 in the White House on 9-11.  Can you imagine what would have happened if Obama was president on that day?  We would be bowing to our enemies and begging for their forgiveness.  If Obama was president then, he would be blaming Americans.  I think he does now.  Obama never cared for America.  He was and is openly hostile to this nation -- a country that gave him everything, most of which it is doubtful he even worked for.  His 8-year reign was meant to destroy America and turn it into some third world banana republic.  And he nearly succeeded.

Houston service-

America the Beautiful- Congregational hymn

This is My Country - Choral Anthem
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

I think it's the most powerful musical tribute to the military.

Commendatation, followed by prayer from Bishop of Texas

Ending with "Onward Christian Soldiers," one of GHW's favorites.......... NOT a "PC" hymn. It's been banished in many hymnals for being too warlike!
