Faith(defined): The closest that the Bible comes to offering an exact definition is Hebrews 11:1 – “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” From this particular passage we see that the central feature of faith is confidence or trust. In the Bible, the object of faith is God and his promises.
Three aspects of Faith: In Whom do we believe; what do we believe; & why do we believe?
Don’t Get Frustrated
We hear from folks all the time that are fearful of what may come … or frustrated at why a certain setback occurred … or exhausted as to why it is taking people so long to “wake up” to everything happening around them.
Quitting would be the easy route … maybe even going to the other side would seemingly “end the struggle”, at least in the short term … but ask yourself, what did our Founding Fathers do? Did they quit? Did they go back over to the British side? Did they go for where the money was? Did they sell out for praise?
Or did they take the road less travelled … with FAITH in God?
There is a reason for EVERYTHING: Enjoy the ride. When you have FAITH, when you trust that whatever happens there is a reason … when you know that even losses are there for a purpose, to wake people up, to give you more time to prepare … it makes life and MISSION so much easier to #PressON!!!
Don’t get frustrated … look inside and ask yourself if you did all that your could (as faith is not an excuse to be lazy) … and if you gave your all, if you left it all on the battlefield, ask yourself if you truly have FAITH in God’s PLAN & God’s (perfect) TIMING?
“God’s PLAN,
God’s TIMING.”
These things are not just words written in a Book or talked about on Sunday Mornings … these are principles of life we must live by every day.
And know that others are looking on … watching what you DO, not just listening to what you SAY.
Are you a leader, or are you a politician? Do you live by your professed FAITH? Do you inspire, or do you complain and depress?
Be the GOOD. Be the FUTURE. Be the SOLUTION.
Ask yourself … would you have been Churchill? Are you God’s Warrior? And do you have FAITH?
No, we don’t encourage “betting” … but we do encourage following the BETTING ODDS (aka “Predication Markets”). Polls can be easily manipulated … and these prediction markets can be as well … but when people have to put their money where their mouth is, it is a lot harder to fake.
We love studying these elections … the data, the momentum, the candidate’s personal pros/cons, the donors and the dark money really controlling candidates … the CONSULTANTS … it’s all fascinating.
As we teach, NOTHING is what it seems in politics.
This SC Governor’s campaign will be one to study. The “autopsy” will be amazing. We expect the “Powers that Be“ will start listening to the MAGA / America FIRST grassroots in the future … but we will find out for sure if there are lessons to learn next Tuesday.

As Patriots, we love our country and deeply care about the future of our great Palmetto State. Proverbs 22:29 offers a timely reminder of what truly matters this election season: “Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.”
True leadership is not about the loudest voice, empty promises, or political games, it is about competence, integrity, and selfless service.
We seek leaders who communicate clearly and honestly with the people they serve. Leaders who demonstrate a genuine willingness to serve every South Carolinian – not just special interests or party insiders. Leaders who prioritize doing what is right for our state over political ambition, and who embrace transparency so citizens can see how decisions are made and where their tax dollars go.
Runoff Election Day is Tuesday, June 23rd – GO VOTE!!!
“Do you see any truly competent workers? They will serve kings rather than working for ordinary people”
Proverbs 22:29
To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), as we approach the South Carolina primaries this coming Tuesday, we can take pride in the hard work behind us – doors knocked, voters informed, and values defended.

As we approach the South Carolina primaries this coming Tuesday, we can take pride in the hard work behind us – doors knocked, voters informed, and values defended. We are running hard to the finish line, and we match our work with our faith. This morning, remember James 1:5: God gives wisdom generously to those who ask. Let’s seek His guidance as we prepare for Tuesday.
Join us in prayer:
–> For wisdom for every voter to choose leaders of integrity and courage.
–> For truth to prevail over lies, manipulation, and political corruption.
–> For gratitude for the freedom to vote and be heard.
We will keep working, keep pushing, and ultimately, trust the results to Him.
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
James 1:5
To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), with only one week left until the primary elections, patriots must block out the frantic noise and emotional manipulation of the campaign trail by anchoring their decisions in the wisdom of Jeremiah 6:16.
