Lincoln's Prayer, by Jon McNaughton
Abraham Lincoln was a man who kept his religious view very personal, but he often spoke of God as he led the country through one of its darkest times. During the Civil War, he was quoted as saying, “I have been driven many times to my knees, by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go.” I believe God often uses imperfect people to make a difference when they seek His help. Today, President Trump prays for guidance as he also leads this nation through a difficult time. May God bless the United States of America.
Jon McNaughton is America’s foremost conservative artist. An outspoken critic of liberalism, McNaughton strives to paint images that express his ideas and beliefs. Hated and loved for his controversial work, viewers from around the globe write about the unique perspective of these paintings that seem to tap into the heart of American patriotism.
“The purpose of my painting is to communicate my ideas. American politics is filled with nuance and shades of grey, but I see the world through a prism of light and truth. My art reflects who I am and doesn’t use nuance or shades of grey to make my point. I want future generations to know exactly how I felt during this time of our country’s history.”
