Transcript:
William Penn expressed a common vision for government later built within the Declaration of Independence. How does integrity, a common vision and national renewal link? I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. The rotunda in the Pennsylvania state Capitol includes the words of William Penn which read, “That there may be room there for such a holy experiment, for the nations want a precedent. And my God will make it the seed of a nation.” What a vision? A self-governing
republic based on God’s authority. When we recognize this vision shared by our nation’s founding fathers, we’ll gain a vision for blessing and accept our duty to pursue it. God will then make it to happen. Praying for our nation, seeking the good of our land, and honoring those who serve our land are just some of the ways we can pursue this vision with integrity.

Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. This week, we’ve looked at how God helps us in times of adversity.

When we rely on His strength, we will lose some battles, but our victory is guaranteed. Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.
Overcoming Adversity Series: Our Heavenly Home
April 18, 2024
Transcript: The trials of this life can be overwhelming at times, but one blessing for the Christian is the ability to look forward to heaven, knowing that this world is not our home. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. In Philippians 3:20, Scripture says “our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body.” The aches and pains of our humanness will one day be over. I’ve heard it said that as we grow older that what works hurts and what doesn’t hurt, doesn’t work. We can all feel that way as we struggle with sickness or physical pains, but we know there is a day when all things will be made new and we enjoy eternity in the presence of our Lord with all those who believe.

Overcoming Adversity Series: God Intended It for Good
April 17, 2024
Transcript: It’s good to remember that our past and present is all part of God’s plan. It was that way for Joseph – and he recognized it. It can be the same for me and you as well. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. The final chapter of Genesis reveals that Joseph’s brothers feared retaliation from Joseph or judgment from God for selling their younger brother into http://slavery.and and they deserved it. But Joseph wisely responded, “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” The same attitude can be yours today. Sometimes the worst of troubles can overwhelm us in the moment. But when we trust in God, we can rise above those troubles and understand that God seeks not to destroy us, but to develop us. It’s never about us. It’s about God’s work in us and how we can point others to God who meant it for good. Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.
