However, no matter if we celebrate the Fourth in Pensacola, Mountain Brook, at Regions Park, or on Lake Martin, the important thing to remember is why we are celebrating.  America is the best country on earth, and God has blessed us with unparalleled freedom and prosperity.  Men and women have fought and  died so that we can have the freedoms that we enjoy today. 

What started as a rebellion against tyranny and oppression on the part of a small group of Patriots who demanded recognition and representation be given to a small British colony, has blossomed into the mightiest nation that the world has ever seen.  This nation while mighty is still fragile.  If we forget the sacrifices that have been made and must continually be made to keep America great then we will slowly degrade into a second tier nation, but if we forget the God who made us into the nation that we are today, then we will quickly plunge into the oblivion of history.

Let us with humility and thanksgiving reflect upon what God has given us and never take for granted the freedoms that we enjoy.

For many decades Southern Baptist have been doing VBS and it has been our greatest outreach. Every year we see the lives of children and families changed as they encounter the Good News of Jesus Christ.  Our prayer is that VBS 2008 will be just as life changing as it has been in other years.

Be Praying for VBS

Pastor Stan
