From the Desk of Gary DeMar
I watched the film The Founder for the second time. It’s about how Ray Kroc created the multi-billion-dollar franchise empire McDonald’s. While there are some inaccuracies in the film, there’s a lot that’s historically true.
There’s one scene that caught my attention in relation to American Vision.
The scene takes place after Kroc pays the McDonald brothers $2.7 million dollars for their name and company. Dick McDonald wants to know why Kroc just didn’t steal their ideas and start his own restaurant as other people had done. Ray said, “It’s not just the system. It’s the name. … That name. That glorious name. ‘McDonald.’ It’s wide open. Limitless. It could be anything, whatever you want it to be. It sounds like … America.”
Donald Trump has “Make America Great Again,” but American Vision has … American Vision.
America needs an American Vision. That’s why I’ve stepped back into the leadership role at American Vision. What American Vision has … America needs.
At the end of March, I will be meeting with the folks at CrossPolitic Studios to produce two film series. One on “God and Governments” and the other on “Eschatology and the Future of America.” It will be a grueling three-day shooting schedule that will give American Vision something that can be used by Christians all over America to bring our great nation back from the brink of destruction.
The God and Government series was designed to help Christians understand the basics of biblical government and how “government” is not synonymous with politics. The three-volume series (now in a single volume) has had a tremendous impact. I saw the following on a Facebook post:
A few years ago, I was asked on an application for a pastoral residency which 5 books had impacted my life the most at that time. [God and Government] made the list.
America needs the principles outlined in God and Government more today than ever before.
American Vision is about all the Americas! I was invited to speak in Guatemala by William Josué Ochoa Samayoa who uses my God and Government series to train politicians and my books and articles on eschatology to help pastors lead their flocks.
The video series that he produced will include a Spanish translation. Central and South America are caught up in Last Days Madness and it’s hurting their ability to turn their countries around!
Ideas have consequences.
Here’s what I need from you.
Make America Great Again is a great slogan, but it’s not enough!
Even American Vision isn’t enough. The life-transforming gospel of Jesus Christ is the necessary foundational first step that leads to the application of God’s Word to every area of life.
American Vision is hoping to raise $50,000 for the video projects to get these materials into the hands of people outside our orbit of influence.
One generous American Vision supporter has donated $10,000 for the project.
I’ll be filming the two series (plus some bonus material) March 28-30. I’ve been working on the scripts for the past month that will be turned into study guides for the videos.
