God’s Wake-Up Call to the Sleeping Church
Every year since 1790 (during the presidency of George Washington), the President of the United States has given an annual speech to the nation. That speech is known as The State of the Union Address. In it, he discusses the greatest problems of the nation as well as a plan to overcome them. The president’s speech is one that unifies the nation and encourages citizens to work together to improve the country, as one people, regardless of party association or general beliefs and convictions. The one thing that can arguably be agreed upon by most people is that everybody wants to live in a better country and benefit from the liberties, life, and opportunity that the United States has to offer. This is a noble cause, and makes the State of the Union
Address more than simply a speech. It is a bond that brings people together under the red, white, and blue. Accordingly, millions of people tune in each year around the last week of January to watch the State of the Union live on television on all the major networks.
