Today for the first time, I listened to a full speech by Barack Obama – his speech to the 2 million people on the mall, his speech to America, his speech to the world.

Knowing that a hundred and fifty million dollars has been spent on this inaugural celebration, we all know that President Obama is the world’s superstar for this week.

And one aspect of our President’s speech stood out to me:  he was calling us to a renewal through a return.

God says, “Return . . . for I am merciful.”
