Returning the nation to God

Roy Moore is absolutely right. This nation needs to return to God and obey His word in Scripture. That would mean:

▪ Healing the sick (expanding Obamacare)

▪ Feeding the hungry (restoring adequate funding for food stamps)

▪ Caring for the widow and the orphan (with good housing and well-funded education at every level)

▪ Freeing the prisoner (by ending police shootings and mass incarceration)

▪ Welcoming the stranger (refugees from famine, drought and war)

This is what the Lord requires of us: To do justice, love mercy and walk humbly with our God.
