I’m Proud To Be An American

Michelle and I got to see Lee Greenwood in concert while back in Tennessee. While I didn’t know a lot of his songs, I was thoroughly impressed with what this guy was doing at the age of 74.

I had no idea what a great saxophone player he is. I may not be a Country Music fan, but I love live music and could seriously appreciate all this great band was doing.

Bottom line, it was a lot of fun, and yes…he sang “I’m Proud To Be An American.” We stood, we sang…and we left…proud to be Americans.

That being said, I want to encourage you again today to pray for our great Country. We do have all kinds of reasons to pray…so PRAY!

“The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know. Pray especially for rulers and their governments to rule well so we can be quietly about our business of living simply, in humble contemplation. This is the way our Savior God wants us to live.” (1 Timothy 2:1-3 MSG)

I’d also like to ask you to pray for Community, our leaders, our impact in our Valley and your role in our effectiveness. Please pray for our weekend services coming up…I can’t wait to see you all!
