Broken Pieces

If we could walk through all the cities, towns and communities of our country we could not count all the buildings, temples and cathedrals that we call "Church." So many different churches, denominations and versions of the Bible, and yet, the world is in more turmoil than ever before, and sadly most Christians identify each other by the Church they attend. America has always been a church going Nation. If one wants to be upstanding in the community, church is the place to go and be seen. When I was in school, the first thing our teacher did was lead her class in the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by the Lord's Prayer. She had a plaque of the Ten Commandments hanging over her desk, which likewise, hung in the halls of our gyms and auditoriums, and the American Flag hung beside them. We always had prayer in homes, schools and public gatherings. With so many Churches and good people, what happened to Beautiful Christian America?
