Religious liberty is foundational to our freedom

A great America needs God

I'm not afraid to say I'm a Christian, saved by Jesus Christ, but people of every faith have seen how religious values, and even God Himself, have been under attack in America over the past few years.

Here's the truth: The United States isn't going to solve its problems in a country empty of faith. I'm Gordon Howie and I approve this message because a great America needs God.
