Can elections alone fix our societal issues, or is there a deeper solution rooted in our values and faith? In this episode of the American Soul Podcast, we make a bold statement: real change begins with a return to our foundational values, not just at the ballot box. We start with a heartfelt prayer and emphasize the need to integrate faith into our daily lives and relationships. By dedicating time each day to Bible reading and prayer, we can cultivate a life centered on spiritual principles. We explore the historical significance of the Bible in America's founding and discuss the modern consequences of neglecting these practices. Moreover, we challenge the common excuse of having no time for our spouses, insisting on the importance of daily prioritization and love in our marriages.

Our discussion continues with a fascinating look at the religious beliefs of America's founding fathers and the role of faith in governance. We'll unpack the predominant belief in the triune God among early Americans and imagine the controversy if a belief in God were still a requirement for public office today. Drawing from Justice Brewer's 1892 Supreme Court decision in Holy Trinity Church vs. United States, we underscore the enduring role of faith in America's legal and cultural heritage. We conclude with a heartfelt blessing for our listeners, their families, marriages, and our nation, all aimed at inspiring a collective return to our spiritual roots. Don't miss this thought-provoking episode!
