In God We Trust Conference This Saturday Features David Barton, Standout Speakers
While we battle here at the General Assembly to ensure that our commonwealth’s public policy reflects the eternal values our forefathers enshrined in the constitution, a Richmond church will host a conference to remind folks of exactly that history. This Saturday, February 13, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., you have the opportunity to attend the In God We Trust Conference at Grove Avenue Baptist Church.
The conference’s speakers include:
» David Barton, Founder and President of Wallbuilders
» Richard Land, President of the Southern Baptist’s Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission
» Steven McDowell, co-founder of the Providence Foundation and President of its Biblical Worldview University
» Craig Parshall, the Senior Vice President and General Counsel for National Religious Broadcasters
Rarely are all of these great leaders in one place and this conference is not simply to remind you of the Biblical worldview of our Founding Fathers, but also to address the issues facing the church today. To help with this goal, we invite attendees to learn more about The Family Foundation and how to put their worldview to work for their family and their faith. Join us Saturday by purchasing your ticket, then stop by our table and say hello.
This is utter nonsense. As if our Founders all shared the same “Biblical Worldview.” Show me a single reference to “Christian” or “Christianity” in our Constitution. What is the significance of the whole notion of a “Biblical Worldview” and “Christian Nation” when Christians themselves don’t even agree on a “Biblical Worldview”? The “One Nation Under God” motto didn’t even come about until 1954. As I’ve said before, placing “In God We Trust” on license plates and displaying the American flag in our churches up on the alter next to the Cross is simply a conceited attempt to make us feel better about ourselves as a people; not about honoring God. The need to do these things reflects human failings, not American virtues.
