May 27, 2015
Not a perfect article, but not bad either: “Please think twice before putting on a Star Spangled gala in church this Sunday. I love to hear the national anthem and ‘God Bless America’ and ‘My Country, Tis of Thee,’ but not in church where the nations gather to worship the King of all peoples.”
Thanks to W.S.
