Summary
Division, separation, and polarization. It’s reaching incredible heights right now. I see it everywhere and the Bible warns us about it. The question is — are we listening?

| 1:06.7 | And I was telling Jay the other night, we had an open house for the congressional campaign |
| 1:13.8 | and I'm getting to meet lots of really wonderful people and what's fascinating to me is the |
