America's Providential History
Studying American history has brought me such increased witness of God's hand in our nation's history! He truly guided and directed the events of America's founding. This excellent volume is unique in its content and in its aim--to show how God has led and guided this nation. I have discovered information in this book that I've never seen elsewhere. Did you know that when George Washington was sworn into office he leaned over and kissed the Bible?! Did you know that the starving Continental Army was unexpectedly fed a miraculous supply of fish? Using pitchforks and shovels, the men plunged into the freezing water to throw thousands of shad up onto the snowy banks of the Schuylkill River, providing plenty of food for the army. Each inspiring page details God's workings, from the inception of liberty, through the Pilgrim period, the Revolution, and the Civil War. Ends with a call for Americans to turn back to God. Paperback, 294 pages, black-and white-drawings throughout. |
