David. Moses. Abraham. Peter. While all of these men achieved amazing things for God, they all also had shortcomings. In the same way, the great men who built this country were also flawed. There’s a trend in culture right now to dismiss their heroism, and choose instead to emphasize their shortcomings. But as Theodore Roosevelt once pointed out, [quote], “far better is it to dare mighty things…than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much.” [end quote] It’s not necessary to pretend that the Bible– or our nation’s history– is only made up of perfect people. The fact that God can use even the most flawed men to achieve great things for His Kingdom is just the inspiring message our sons desperately need to hear.
