However, it cannot be done without the church, because the faith of the people is more powerful than any law government can enact.The church is the...

What if the greatest threat to Christianity in America was American Christianity?As the Church has become increasingly entangled in the pursuit of politics, the Gospel has become tarnished and often abandoned as the primary focus of the Body of Christ.
