Of God and Country

Humphrey Stevenson

Last night, I attended a great lecture put on by The USA Patriots. The title of the lecture series is “Of God and Country.” The two speakers were Associate Pastor Jeff Reed of Kirk Of The Hills in Tulsa, OK and Pastor Jason Murphy of New Life Church in Owasso, OK. Wonderful music was provided by The Hargroves. A group of Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts did a great job as the Color Guard for the evening. There was a huge assortment of delicious cakes, cookies and other snacks provided for intermission.

A full discussion of the content of the lectures is not possible here. However, Pastor Reed proved, with historical evidence, that the United States was founded as, is now and always has been a Christian nation. Pastor Murphy showed how the land mass that is now the United States was a special place, intentionally hidden away by God for hundreds of years until He was ready for it to be settled by a chosen group of people so that the greatest and most free nation in history could be formed.

I am terrible at estimating crowd size, so I will only say the there were several hundred in attendance. The large hall in which the event was held was filled to near standing room only.

I would like to thank The USA Patriots for sponsoring the event and all others involved in making the event possible. Also, a special thanks to the pastors and congregation of Kirk Of The Hills for opening their superb facilities for the evening.

There is another lecture in the series scheduled for Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 7 pm at:
Kirk Of The Hills
4102 E. 61st Street
Tulsa, OK
So if you are in the Tulsa area, please come. You will learn much more about how God has influenced this great nation and have wonderful time while learning it.
