About this episode

Pastor Brandon Scroggins discusses the role of biblical teachings and courageous men in the formation of America, emphasizing the importance of faith and responsibility.

In this Father’s Day sermon, Pastor Brandon Scroggins continues the series on biblical nationhood by looking at the kind of men God used in the making of America. This message highlights the Great Awakening, the Minutemen, and especially the often-forgotten Black Robe Regiment—the bold, Bible-preaching pastors who thundered the whole counsel of God from their pulpits and helped shape a generation of courageous Christian men. Long before the first shots of the War for Independence were fired, faithful pastors were teaching Scripture, forming families, discipling churches, confronting tyranny, and applying the Lordship of Christ to every area of life. From Peter Muhlenberg to James Caldwell, this sermon calls men to recover biblical courage, sacrificial responsibility, watchfulness, strength, and love. Pastor Brandon then turns to 1 Corinthians 16:13–14, where Paul commands the church: “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” Preached at Reformation Baptist Church in Central Alabama.
