As our nation approaches another Independence Day, we revisit first principles—not merely political or patriotic, but deeply biblical. In this two‑part foundational episode, Everyday Reformation asks: What does Scripture really say about nations, borders, leadership, and the moral character of a people?
Join Nick and Pastor Brian Scroggins as they lay the groundwork for next week’s discussion on the U.S. Preamble. They dive into Acts 17’s reminder that God “sets the boundaries of the nations,” while exploring the tension between misplaced nationalism and indifferent globalism.
We explore invaluable questions:
-
Are nations man‑made constructs—or divinely purposed?
-
What God‑ordained limits and responsibilities exist for civil leaders?
-
How does subsidiarity—in homes, churches, and communities—reflect biblical order?
-
Why virtue in the public square requires holy character cultivated at home and in the church?
-
What role should the local church play in shaping civic life and cultural health?
Recorded amid unrest, heated debates about borders, and declining civic virtue, this episode offers a covenantal and Christ‑centered framework for engaging public life. Whether you're a parent concerned for your children’s future, a pastor grappling with civic engagement, or a believer who believes that "Jesus is Lord over all," this is your invitation to rethink Independence Day—not as a secular holiday, but as a distinctive opportunity to celebrate God’s ordering of nations, covenant leadership, and the call to everyday reformation.
Tune in, reflect, share, and next week—stay with us as we unfold the theological significance of the Preamble. May your hearts be rooted in Christ, your families built on His Word, and your hands busy in the work He’s given.
