Pastor Lorenzo Sewell delivers remarks at Rededicate 250 on the National Mall:
"I realize and recognize that we are able to respect every faith, but when our Founding Fathers were thinking about blessing America, they were thinking about the God of the Bible.
They were thinking about our Lord Jesus Christ."

The U.S. Military Chaplain Corps delivers prayers at Rededicate 250 on the National Mall.
Pastor Jentezen Franklin delivers remarks at Rededicate 250 on the National Mall:
"I want to tell you that Elijah, through prayer, through fasting, he fasted for 40 days. Fasting seeds the clouds for revival. And you can't see them, but even your physical posture of humility being here saying, "God, we need you on the 250th anniversary. We need you in our nation. We need you."
We're sowing seeds for future generations. Every time you clap your hands in praise to God, you're seeding, and invisible vapors are going up, forming clouds over the White House, forming clouds over the Supreme Court, forming clouds over the Congress."
