After listening to a speech given at a recent tea party rally, I have distilled the message into ten words. The heart of the message is a prescription for saving not just America but freedom - both political and religious.
1) Believe
2) Act
3) Pray
4) Discern
5) Support
6) Vote
7) Join
8) Subscribe
9) Testify
10) Persevere
I plan to write a vignette about each of these action words.
In the meantime, let's examine the landscape and renew our commitment to culture.
The following quote is from one of my college professors, Russell Kirk. The garden metaphor gives me more direction and is a huge encouragement.
A culture is perennially in need of renewal.
A culture does not survive and prosper merely by being taken for granted; active defense is always required, and imaginative growth, too.
Everyone is involved.

Whether you like it or not.
Whether you acknowledge it or not.
Be a force for Good.

Make sure it lasts.

Good values but I don't think the Tea Party favored Republicans in Congress are doing a great job in following them.
