God Bless America - Our unofficial National Anthem (relevance: 66.7%, date: Jul 2, 2025)
Tomorrow we will be celebrating July 4th. Patriotic music is always a keystone of that celebration. For example, we'll hear Lee Greenwood sing his classic, I'm Proud to be an American. It's a great one.
Many of us will also hear God Bless America. No one could sing that like the late, great Kate Smith. Many of us weren't even born when Kate Smith sung God Bless America for the first time. The song debuted in 1938 on Armistice Day (later known as Veteran's Day).

Intersections: God and Life (relevance: 66.7%, date: Jul 2, 2025)
"Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness." Psalm 29:2 (NIV) Here's a truth that might surprise you: You can't actually give God glory. He already has it completely. Think about it this way. An earthly king only looks glorious when he's wearing his crown and royal robes, sitting on his throne. Take those things away, and he just looks like an ordinary person. His glory depends on external things. But God is different. He doesn't wear glory like a costume--He IS glory. Just like water is naturally wet and the sun naturally gives light, God is naturally glorious.
