Corruption Doesn't Change 'Under the Banner of Heaven'

I was lucky to be able to see Rusty Bowers, the speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives, testify recently before the January 6 Committee. It was a fascinating story Bowers told about the pressure he got from then-President Donald Trump to participate in a coup to flip the electoral votes of Arizona from President-elect Joe Biden to Trump. He successfully resisted that pressure, using his commitment to his oath of office and his faith as the sources of his needed strength. "It is a tenet of my faith that the Constitution is divinely inspired …" Bowers testified. And while that specific language made me cringe a little, as I learned more about him and his faith in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I thought I understood him better. That understanding was short-lived. Connect with Michael Leppert Visit michaelleppert.com to read the full post and links to any resources or articles mentioned.
