Yesterday, I was blessed to join a small group of Christians for a private meeting in the Oval Office with the president of the United States. We were there at a time when the president is carrying the heaviest burden any president has to endure—entrusting the lives of our brave men and women in uniform in a military conflict to protect the United States of America. Throughout our history, whenever a conflict began, both political parties rallied together in support of our troops and our country. Sometimes that unity would fray as a war continued. But in the beginning at least, everyone is united. Sadly, that is not the case today.
