We just celebrated the Fourth of July, when we remember our history --or put more accurately need to learn, or re-learn, our history -- the history of freedom and our wrestling with what freedom means for all people.

This episode of word, prayer and music recalls the Apostle Paul’s words “For Christ has set us free” in Galatians 5 and a little known speech in which President-Elect Abraham Lincoln referred to the American people as “almost chosen.”

John Hilley reflects on what that peculiar ascription “almost chosen” might mean and speaks of the importance of character and self-control.

Also in this podcast, we’ll hear Nate Strasser’s version of

“With Malice Toward None” from the movie Lincoln composed by John Williams.
