It is fitting that artist Mike Malm as the lead artist for this project completes his set depicting the inseparability of covenant makers and covenant protectors to a free republic. No one should be more honored than those who become “the servant of all” and willingly put themselves under oath and do solemnly swear…. These are truly the “greatest among us”. Those who enter politics to serve-self or place their left hand on the Bible, yet sign into law that which is not lawful crumble our Republic. Many of the models for this picture are real covenant keepers, including the soldier who told leaders that if an order to confiscate the guns of American citizens after the Katrina hurricane were given, he would not obey them. Lest we forget, the white headstones are symbolic of the cost of Freedom. This prayer from William Stephenson during WW II says it well “Dear Lord lest I continue my complacent way help me remember that somewhere out there a man died for me today- as long as there be war, I then must ask and answer am I worth dying for?” (pp118 A Man Called Intrepid, William Stevenson)
