What a
'Nation of faith' looks like
The
161st session of the Southern Baptist Convention
assembled this week in Dallas, Texas. The Convention includes
more than 47,000 churches ministering to more than 15 million
people, and its houses of worship can be found in all 50 states
and in communities of every size.
Vice
President Mike Pence addressed the Convention yesterday.
"You know, the President likes to say, in his words, that
we're a Nation of faith," the Vice President said. "The
truth is, Southern Baptists have always worked to bring about
renewal of America, and new beginnings. And as I stand before
you today, I believe that our Nation is in the midst of a time
of renewal."
The
real source of America's greatness, he reiterated, is
in the work of its people. "The truth is no podium that
President Trump and I will ever stand behind will be of greater
consequence than the pulpits you stand behind every Sunday
morning. No policy we enact will ever be more meaningful than
the ministries you lead. And no action we take will ever be
more powerful than your prayers."
A
tremendous moment for the world
President
Trump's successful Singapore summit marks a new
pathway to peace on the Korean Peninsula. "Chairman Kim
has the chance to seize an incredible future for his people.
Anyone can make war, but only the most courageous can make
peace," President Trump said.
