Psalm 119 And The Case For A Bible-Centered America
from The American Soul · host Jesse
Drop us a note about the podcast. America can feel like Psalm 119 sounds: worn out, eyes straining for promises to come true, asking “How long?” while everything around us pulls toward despair. We start there, reading Psalm 119:81-96, and sit in the tension it names so well: the faithful can be exhausted and still obedient, pressured and still hopeful, targeted and still anchored in God’s word.From that foundation, we move through Hebrews 13:4 and the practical call to honor marriage and sexual purity, then spend extended time in John 17 as Jesus prays for His people. We talk about truth as something God gives, not something culture votes on, and about unity that comes from holiness, not from pretending differences do not exist. Along the way we pray for leaders in church and government, for families, and for the courage to fear the Lord and avoid evil.Then we turn outward to the state of the nation: headlines that expose moral collapse, debates over immigration and assimilation, and the deeper question of what a country is for if God gives it more time. We revisit early American history with Fisher Ames, the Establishment Clause, the argument for Bible-based public education, and the story of the Aitken Bible of 1782 to ask whether we have been told the truth about America’s roots and responsibilities.Subscribe for more conversations on Scripture, American history, and a biblical worldview, then share this with a friend and leave a review. What do you think it would look like, practically, for a nation to return to God’s word?#ChristianAmerica#FoundingFathers#BibleoftheAmericanRevolution Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribeCountryside Book Serieshttps://www.amazon.com/Countryside-Book-J-T-Cope-IV-ebook/dp/B00MPIXOB2 America's Christian Heritage Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2622483
