Forsaken or Forsaking?

Grace Under Pressure: The Unsung Eliza Monroe

Grace Under Pressure: The Unsung Eliza Monroe highlights the quiet strength and diplomatic influence of Elizabeth “Eliza” Kortright Monroe, wife of President James Monroe. Using the image of a faithful lighthouse keeper, the episode explores how unseen acts of service can guide and preserve others through turbulent times. Eliza Monroe helped shape America’s international image during the volatile years following the French Revolution and throughout the “Era of Good Feelings,” despite chronic illness and limited public recognition. Her story reminds listeners that faithful influence often works quietly behind the scenes, and that God honors humble service done without applause.

The Foundation Beneath Freedom

Charles Carroll warned that free governments cannot survive without morality and that Christianity provides the strongest moral foundation for liberty. This Minute Man Message explores the connection between biblical virtue and the endurance of the American republic. True freedom requires self-government, moral restraint, and hearts shaped by God’s truth.

Where the Real Treasure Lives

In "Where the Real Treasure Lives," Perry Greene uses the 1986 comedy "The Money Pit" to illustrate a timeless biblical truth: what appears valuable on the surface can conceal deep instability beneath the surface. Drawing from Proverbs 15:6 and Jesus’ parable of the hidden treasure, this episode contrasts worldly income with Godly treasure—peace, righteousness, truth, and enduring character. The message explores how America’s Founders understood that prosperity without virtue eventually destroys both people and nations. Listeners are challenged to examine what fills their homes and hearts: temporary gain that brings trouble, or eternal treasure that produces peace, stability, and hope.

Christ Above Politics

Benjamin Rush warned that human governments alone cannot produce lasting order and happiness. Calling himself a “Christocrat,” he pointed to Jesus Christ as the only perfect ruler of mankind. This Minute Man Message challenges Americans to place their ultimate trust not in political parties or earthly leaders, but in God’s authority and truth. Real national renewal begins with transformed hearts and humble dependence upon Christ.

When the Wolf Wears a Familiar Face

In this episode of GodNAmerica, Perry Greene explores the often-overlooked 1771 Battle of Alamance, where colonial officials in North Carolina turned military force against their own citizens long before the American Revolution officially began. The episode examines how corruption, abuse of authority, and unjust taxation led ordinary farmers and tradesmen known as the Regulators to resist local tyranny. Through historical insight, biblical reflection, and the words of Pastor Jonathan Mayhew, the message warns that tyranny does not always arrive from distant enemies—it can emerge wherever power operates without accountability. The episode challenges modern listeners to remain vigilant, morally grounded, and committed to defending liberty through truth, virtue, and faithfulness to God.
