We explore the inseparable connection between Christian principles, virtue, and maintaining liberty in America as understood by our nation's founders.

• Faith and virtue are essential foundations for maintaining liberty and a functioning republic
• Benjamin Rush stated that education must be rooted in religion to develop virtue necessary for liberty
• Daily encouragement of others and living in harmony should be priorities for Christians
• Scripture readings from 2 Corinthians 13, Psalm 57, and Proverbs 23 provide guidance for virtuous living
• Medal of Honor recipient Frederick Behne displayed extraordinary heroism aboard USS Iowa in 1905
• Charles Carroll warned that undermining Christian religion removes the moral foundation for free government
• The fallacy of being "socially liberal but fiscally conservative" ignores the connection between morality and governance
• The fentanyl crisis (107,000 American deaths in 2023) demonstrates how policy decisions impact vulnerable citizens

God bless you all. God bless your families. God bless your marriages. God bless America.
