Reason #5: I'm A Royalist

We were in Coventry today for part three of the Archbishop tour, and visited the old Cathedral, mostly destroyed by World War II bombing.

Meanwhile, the Queen was celebrating her Diamond Jubilee, and the nation was celebrating with her.

And whoever would be Archbishop of Canterbury, as chaplain to the nation and spokesman for England's established Church, must be willing to submit to the Queen's authority as head of the Christian kingdom of England.

And I proudly sing God Save The Queen -- as a prayer that God would indeed save our Queen (as he apparently already has, judging from her boldness to proclaim the gospel in her Christmas speech) and also as a prayer that God would revive the nation of England.

Go in peace, to love and serve the Lord.
