Is America Dying? Part 4 — The Collapse of Leadership

Rome didn’t fall in a day—it fell when leaders stopped serving and started serving themselves. In this episode of What’s Important Now, Tom Sears looks at the collapse of leadership—one of the clearest warning signs of a nation in decline.

From Rome’s corrupt emperors to America’s political gridlock, corporate greed, cultural confusion, and spiritual failures, this program explores how leadership shapes the destiny of nations. When leaders rise to serve, people flourish. When leaders collapse, nations crumble. But there is hope. Tom lays out what servant leadership looks like—at home, in the church, and in the community—and how ordinary people can reclaim responsibility in extraordinary times.

Is America dying? In this episode of What’s Important Now, Tom Sears examines one of the clearest warning signs of national decline: the collapse of the family.

From skyrocketing fatherlessness to the redefinition of marriage, America is experiencing the same decay that once brought down the Roman Empire. When families fall apart, nations soon follow. But is there hope for renewal?

Can the American family be restored before it’s too late? In this 30-minute broadcast, Tom confronts the cultural assault on the home, reveals what history teaches us about nations that abandon God’s design for family, and points to the path of restoration. This is not just commentary, it’s a call to action for anyone who believes America still has a future.
