A new person has thrown their hat into the ring for the Republican nomination for the presidency. Reported by the LA Times on June 7, 2011, Rick Santorum has announced that he will run for the Republican nomination. Pretty much unknown even as a U.S. Senator, it is a wonder why he is even running. He says that he has the courage to lead America, but this reads like simple political rhetoric. From quotes in the article, it all reads as the same old same old political baloney meant to gain the votes of the gullible. They say nice things, but they say it only to get them elected and when it times for reelection they say it only to get reelected. Such a wonderful bunch politicians are.
This week's core biblical truth, Growth, seem very apt for this article. "God’s people are stewards of His blessings, and with those blessings come great responsibility to further God’s ministry of redemption." Here we have one of many possible stewards of America and we know nothing about him. This is a problem, if we are to vote him into office we should know all that he is capable of and what he has done. These things are critical if he or anyone else is to be a steward.
