In his thoughtful sermon, Pastor Gary Thomas at Cherry Hills Community Church explores the idea that "God doesn’t need the US; the US needs God." With warmth and clarity, he emphasizes that God's work and purpose extend far beyond any single nation. Yet, the true well-being of any country—including the United States—ultimately rests on seeking God’s guidance. Pastor Gary points out that the church’s role isn’t political but deeply rooted in encouraging the nation to pursue righteousness, reminding us that a meaningful and grounded society starts with aligning with the values that God calls us to embrace. It’s a timely reflection on where our true strength as a community lies.
