This Fourth of July, as many Americans celebrate with barbecues, parades and fireworks, Pastor Terrance Levise Turner wants to encourage them to give more than a passing thought to the freedoms the country was built upon: among them religion, speech and privacy. Pastor Turner says, “All are being violated and put at risk in the current political environment.”
To balance the loss of these external freedoms, Pastor Terrance says Christians need to rely on their internal or spiritual freedom. He says, “The key to true liberty is to free your mind from the tyranny of poverty, failure, and low-esteem. This is also the key to the survival of the U.S. and the world.”
Pastor Terrance, author of the new book, Living Proverbs: Over 500 Wisdom Nuggets to Enrich Your Life (Vol. 1), cites Proverbs 4:7. “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
In an interview, he can talk about:
- Why just because something is politically correct does not make it right or negate the consequences of breaking God’s laws of justice, truth and liberty.
- The biblical underpinnings of the Founding Fathers.
- Making better and faster godly decisions as individuals and as a country.
- Finding comfort and counsel to face life’s challenges.
