America's Providential History

Book excerpt: Discover why many historians consider the Bible America's founding document. Learn how God's presence was evident at our nation's founding in the men who fought for independence and shaped the Constitution. Beginning with ancient history, the book presents a providential view of significant events leading to the establishment of America. Examines the Reformation, the Pilgrims, the role of the clergy and church, the Christian foundations of education and economics, and the development of liberty. Cites primary source documents that show our nation grew from Christian principles and reveals how to bring them back into the nation today. Numerous illustrations, portraits, and visual aids make this book a valuable resource. The Conservative Book Club says: "This volume seems destined to become one of the best selling Christian books of our time." This revised and expanded edition contains two new chapters and much additional information not in the original version.
