Church and State Are Not Meant to be Separate | A.R. Bernard

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the importance of appreciating America's national day of prayer, especially in contrast to nations facing religious persecution. It highlights the distinction between separation of authority and isolation between church and state, advocating for a proactive working relationship. The practical takeaway is to engage with and contribute to society, drawing inspiration from the biblical example of Israelites in Babylon and establishing formal avenues like the New York State Interfaith Council to bridge church and government.
