What happens when a nation forgets its spiritual foundation? In this soul-searching episode, Jesse Cope challenges listeners to examine their daily priorities and whether they truly align with their professed faith.

"Have you made time for God today? Have you made time for Jesus Christ? Have you made time for your spouse?" These aren't just rhetorical questions, but a mirror held up to our collective conscience. As Christians, we claim God is our top priority, yet our schedules often tell a different story. Cope thoughtfully explores how prayer shouldn't be a checkbox item but an ongoing conversation throughout our day—whether we're working a fence line, teaching in a classroom, or serving in the military.

The discussion on marriage strikes a particularly resonant chord. Using the powerful analogy of a bank account, Cope points out that we would naturally pay more attention to an account with $50 million than one with mere pocket change. Shouldn't we then invest more attention in our marriages with each passing year, not less? He challenges the notion that the "honeymoon period" should end, arguing instead that the same level of attentiveness should characterize the entire relationship.

Diving into historical wisdom, Cope examines why our founders deliberately established a republic rather than a democracy. With quotes from James Madison, John Adams, and Fisher Ames (who wrote the First Amendment's Establishment Clause), he demonstrates how pure democracy inevitably leads to mob rule and self-destruction. These warnings seem eerily prophetic when considering today's social unrest and political turbulence.

The episode culminates with a fascinating look at the "committees of correspondence" established before the American Revolution—networks that enabled colonies to coordinate their response to British tyranny. Cope makes a compelling case that Christians and conservatives need similar networks today to effectively stand against cultural and governmental overreach. When faithful communities work in concert rather than isolation, their impact is exponentially greater.

Share this episode with someone who needs a spiritual wake-up call, and join us in reclaiming America's soul through the timeless values that once made our nation great.
