LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Dear AMAC Member, Now is the time for an American revival.

Over two million AMAC members believe that freedom is guided by the laws of nature and Nature’s God. As we look to our past, we discover that we have learned so much and should never forget the many morally defining moments in American history (see page 26). Our nation’s founding paved a way for men and women yearning to be free, making our nation the greatest place to live, raise a family, grow old, and eventually die. We acknowledge that our freedom is not granted to us by man, but rather, that we are a people created by God and inherently born to live free, to pursue happiness. We have not forgotten that it is imposed on “we, the people” to ensure the American govern- ment does not forget that government was put in place by and for the people. Not the other way around. We understand how the radical left is attempting to destroy our culture in order to impose a new one  a culture that embraces the Marxist concept of dividing people by class. Today’s radical left preys on people’s goodness. They want to destroy merit and create their own score card, using us as pawns in their power game. We all have friends and perhaps some close family members who fall prey to this new culture that attempts to blur the lines between right and wrong, male and female, good and evil. US cities are on the verge of collapse under democratic control (see page 8), and an entire generation of Americans have abandoned faith in God, choosing the wider road, lined with false trappings that encourage and celebrate abortion, gender mutilation, sexualization of children, and the “health of the planet.” So how do we fix things? Perhaps we can learn from AMAC’s man of the year, Ron DeSantis (see page 20). We must be unafraid to charge into the culture war and create an American revival that is rooted in God’s Word. We do this by reminding our friends, family, and those who will listen that woke ideology and hostility toward traditional expressions of faith, particularly the Christian faith, have no place in America. It is on this generation to step up and do better than any other generation has ever done before. This will take the courage of individuals like you to save our country. This is AMAC’s call. Your membership helps us deliver our message to the halls of Congress. Please consider giving the gift of AMAC membership to a friend. And check out page 46 for AMAC Action legislative wins! May we all be reminded that we, people of faith, can and will, with God’s grace, live out our mission to be the salt and light in American life. God bless you always, Rebecca Weber
