This is a sermon I preached a couple years ago, but since the same text comes up again this Sunday, and I'm guest-preaching at another church, I'll be using it again.
And I was thinking that you finished your sermon early so you wouldn’t miss a single minute of the Pro Bowl.
A nation without a culture falls apart. The world culture comes from “cult” meaning form or worship. Medieval and Renaissance Europe had a culture on the Catholic Mass. American culture was based on the Protestant worship. When these both fail, the nations decline. It either becomes an anarchy or another power fills the vacuum. Islam will probably fill the void in Europe. Who knows what will in America.
