Series: Will God Bless America?

Judges 8:28 - 9:21
I heard about a man who went to the doctor. Actually, his wife took him to the doctor. He was feeling really, really sick. And so the doctor ran a bunch of tests on this guy. And then he called the wife into his office to talk to her separately about these tests. And he said, ''Your husband is in very bad shape.''

And as they're driving home, the husband said to the wife, he said, ''Well, honey, what did the doctor say?'' She said, ''Well, he says you're going to die''. Obviously, she wasn't willing to do what was necessary for him.
I want to talk to you today about America. See, I believe that America is just like that man in that joke. America, the land of the free and the home of the brave, is in critical condition. And unless some things are not done in America, America is going to cease to be the land of the free and the home of the brave. See, America used to be focused and rooted in God. But we have lost our moorings and we're so far from what we used to be. We're so ...
