American Story: The Beginnings
From Columbus to the Civil War, this passionately researched history written by the founder and president of Wallbuilders, provides a solid, Biblical, and conservative US history overview. The text highlights the “golden thread” of American History: God’s providence. From this perspective, the author records the events that show human affairs as directed by God. Additionally, the focus seeks to reveal the character of God and of man. The authors urge families to raise Biblically minded citizens who examine the lives of key individuals as well as the consequences of their ideas and actions. The ultimate goal is to equip readers to study, teach, know, perceive, defend, and assert both the Bible and the Constitution. You’ll also find arguments and examples against revisionist history, along with many primary source quotations and a copious 65 pages of endnotes. 379 pgs, pb. ~ Ruth
America is unique. No other nation in the world has enjoyed the widespread levels of stability, individual prosperity, and personal freedoms that have become customary in America today.
What made America different from other nations? Was it the people, the principles, or the blessing of God? It was all three of these, and this work will highlight each, telling the story of the most exceptional nation in the history of the world.
Our story is not one of a perfect people, yet it is a compelling account of diverse people seeking religious and civil freedom, escaping oppression, pursuing opportunity, and often joining hands to achieve common goals. The American Story highlights some of the interesting moments and incidents affirming God’s Providence in American history. Our past is full of captivating accounts of the brave and the cowardly; of heroes and villains; of atrocities, corruption, and greed as well as self-sacrifice, honor, and redemption. It is a compelling and fascinating story.
