29 Mar Pastor Pat Bailey, Insights: Presbyterians & The Rise of Democracy? Really?
Last Sunday I spoke a little about Presbyterian history. Did you know that Presbyterian polity influenced the rise of democracy and that many in England called the American Revolution the Presbyterian Rebellion? However we self-identify, our deeper self is without boundaries, without center or circumference, the subject that observes all.
Pastor Pat Bailey

For 16 years, Pat served as a chaplain in the U.S. Army. He is also an Iraq War veteran.
