Our forefathers understood the importance – nay, the necessity – of acknowledging God and seeking His aid in all their doings. They warned future generations that the day God was not earnestly revered in America, she would become a byword among nations. We would do well today to review their urgent admonitions and the wisdom that was theirs when they forged the greatest and most prosperous nation in all history. Americans have lost their way in part because they do not know their own Christian heritage. The pages that follow declare that heritage, explain the bedrock foundations of our freedoms, and tell the dramatic story and impact of America’s great spiritual awakenings. It is the side of early America that has been either ignored or distorted by the history books. Several times in the history of our nation, widespread revival has put God’s people back on course. Each time it has reversed a downward moral trend in society and ultimately unleashed profound social impact. For in Jesus Christ lie all the secrets of the universe, the origin of life, the direction of history, the life beyond. Without at least an elementary grasp of God’s sovereign hand behind all history, which our founding fathers so clearly understood, modern Americans will overlook the true meaning of their own land., ISBN13: B000BL8G40 ISBN10: B000BL8G40 Material Type: paperback
