With a country divided, the Republican risk and morality being redefined, it's time to get around the campfire, get back to basics, and spark the revival that this country so desperately needs.

This is the American Campfire Revival with Cook Cameron.

You know, we're still talking about the American Campfire Revival,

and I was talking with Chelsea this evening about why I'm talking about marriage and about the love dare.

And again, the reason that I'm focusing on the subject of marriage

is that the only way that God is going to bless a nation

who says that He is the Lord.

And we say things like God bless America, and we sing

it in our national anthem, is if we are actually staying in right relationship with him. You know,

if I say to my wife that I love her, but I'm cheating on the side, I'm demonstrating that my

words mean nothing and my heart is corrupt.

And so if we really want God to see our desperate need for him to come and bring revival

to our nation, we've got to be willing to honor him in the personal commitments at home.

In the marriage vows, in the way that we raise our children.

And if I want to be effective on a national level, if we want to be able to affect the things

that we see happening in the political sphere and in the cultural realm,

I've got to demonstrate that I can be faithful in the small things, like marriage and family,

which, by the way, are not small things.

If I cannot be faithful to my wife, if I cannot be faithful to my children,

why should God entrust me to be in charge of things that affect people outside my four walls? And so, we are trusting God and obeying him

in His word to be faithful and to be found trustworthy in marriage as the important building block of family

and society and to demonstrate that we are ready for more responsibility.
