no more pain. no more sickness. no more burdens of this world. in fact, his biggest concern is probably what channel do i have to find in heaven to watch larry play on sundays? all joking alive, he is a free man and more alive than he s ever been. see, senator mccain professed christianity. here is the hope in what senator mccain believed. romans 3: 23. for all sin fallen short of the glory of god. romans 6:23. the wages of sin was death. the gift of god is eternal life through his son, jesus christ. the hope we have is senator john mccain believed this passage
about him. he sang a constant hymn to america. i think you see at the air force base or refugee camps on the edge of syria, people wanted to be around john mccain. today, people wanted to be around john mccain. this is a message about john mccain but also john mccain s message to america. well said. joe biden gave a hymn to america. he said the america we know is an idea. it s a declaration of universal human dignity. 7.5 billion people across the globe created by god with rights. you don t have rights because we gave them to you. john was the proponent of that american ideal. you heard a lot of people singing a mccain refrain to that. one more question, how do you how do you take this message and continue it in a practical way? how do you take his life and legacy and what he did in the
i can testify to the interview in 30 years. it s going to be an important eulogy on saturday when your former boss, the former president of the united states, barack obama, is at the national cathedral. yeah. what strikes me about this is senator mccain didn t orchestrate a tib ute to himself. he orchestrated a civic communion where we took it to revisit principles of who we are as a country, quwhat politics should be about. the fact president obama is speaking and president bush is speaking, two vanquished opponents, but respectful opponents is enormously important, at this time in our country, when politics is so angry and polarized, to see former opponents, people of different parties stand-up and pay tribute to each other, i think is not about john mccain, it s about what he believed about our country and so i m

u.s. senate and politics and continue it in a real way, not just talking about it now, but in the future? sure. this is obviously a week, not just yesterday and today, through saturday and the burial coming. this is a time to celebrate john. one of the things you see are a civic that is are bigger than policy preference in john. we have a lot of people in politics who are mostly interested in their own incumbency and low grade tribalism. what should we do about x ? the other guys are worse than our guys. wouldn t it be great to come out of the week, there s a lot of celebration. it would be great to come out not just 100 people in the senate or 535 people in the congress, but people across america saying republicans and democrats, we differ on a bunch of things, but there are things bigger that unite us. senator, thank you. thank you for sharing this.
