where you live should no longer determine whether you live.

Recently I was told to read the speech that Bono gave at the President Prayer Breakfast. I have heard a lot about it but never actually heard it for myself or read it.
After reading it I have come to the conclusion that God is on the move. That the foundational beliefs of this country are still in full effect. If you would like to read the speech I have added the link at the end of this post.
I have been reading a book recently by Loreen Cunningham about how the bible can transform a nation. There are so many examples through out history dealing with this very issue. When God's word is applied to any area of society you can see justice and truth prevail. You can see the blessings and the flow of the Holy Spirit in peoples lives.
Having read Bono's remarks and now going through this book I have come to a new understanding of the blessing that I have to live in this country and yet at the same time my responsibility as a Christian to be a part of discipling it. To be a change agent instead of a by-stander.
