INAUGURATION AGITATION: Has America Lost Her Way?
Manage episode 463249165 series 3551319
In this episode, we dive deep into a thought-provoking exploration of societal and spiritual decline, beginning with a powerful passage from Isaiah 1:21-23. The prophet's lamentation over a "faithful city" turned into a "prostitute" offers a striking parallel to America's own struggles with justice, righteousness, and corruption. How have we gone from a society built on ideals of justice to one where "rulers are rebels" and “partners with thieves”?
Join us for a conversation that connects ancient wisdom with modern-day struggles and challenges us to reflect on where we’ve gone wrong—and how we might find our way back.
