| 0:00.0 | 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. |
| 0:15.8 | This is the American Campfire Revival with Cook Cameron. |
| 0:23.8 | Well, here's what I wanted to talk with you about tonight. |
| 0:28.2 | Let's see. We've been looking into the American Covenant book for quite a while now, |
| 0:35.0 | and we're still coming to the end of Chapter 6, and I'm on page 144 right now, |
| 0:40.7 | if you want to follow along in the American Covenant book. And we're talking about conscience. |
| 0:50.2 | Your conscience is a gift that God has given to you. And it's something that is different than every |

| 2:18.6 | property just as much, if not more, and regard it as sacred. And I'm going to read to you a little bit |
