In this groundbreaking book, New York Times bestselling author Bruce Feiler travels through touchstones in American history and traces the biblical prophet’s influence from the Mayflower through today.

Rediscovering God in America: Reflections on the Role of Faith in Our Nation’s History and Future
By Newt Gingrich
Retail Price: $14.99
Our Price: $10.19
Product Description
A simple walk through Washington, DC, to view the significant monuments, memorials, and artifacts found in our Nation’s capital, began a profound journey of personal discovery and renewal for Newt Gingrich, one of America’s most influential politicians and commentators. His first stop was the National Archives, where the immortal words from the Declaration of Independence that we “are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights” jumped off the page and into his heart. From day one in our country’s history, the Author of freedom was not the state nor even the Founding Fathers. Our basic human rights and freedoms, which have been the spark for all of America’s accomplishments and greatness, were – and are – “Creator-endowed.” Gingrich sounds a clarion call for us to recognize that the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness that we hold so dear are inseparable from a sincere and humble acknowledgement that these gifts are only the Creator’s to give.

God and Ronald Reagan: A Spiritual Life
By Paul Kengor
Retail Price: $5.95
Our Price: $13.56
Product Description
Ronald Reagan is hailed today for a presidency that restored optimism to America, engendered years of economic prosperity, and helped bring about the fall of the Soviet Union. Yet until now little attention has been paid to the role Reagan’s personal spirituality played in his political career, shaping his ideas, bolstering his resolve, and ultimately compelling him to confront the brutal — and, not coincidentally, atheistic — Soviet empire.
In this groundbreaking book, political historian Paul Kengor draws upon Reagan’s legacy of speeches and correspondence, and the memories of those who knew him well, to reveal a man whose Christian faith remained deep and consistent throughout his more than six decades in public life. Raised in the Disciples of Christ Church by a devout mother with a passionate missionary streak, Reagan embraced the church after reading a Christian novel at the age of eleven. A devoted Sunday-school teacher, he absorbed the church’s model of “practical Christianity” and strived to achieve it in every stage of his life.
But it was in his lifelong battle against communism — first in Hollywood, then on the political stage — that Reagan’s Christian beliefs had their most profound effect. Appalled by the religious repression and state-mandated atheism of Bolshevik Marxism, Reagan felt called by a sense of personal mission to confront the USSR. Inspired by influences as diverse as C.S. Lewis, Whittaker Chambers, and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, he waged an openly spiritual campaign against communism, insisting that religious freedom was the bedrock of personal liberty. “The source of our strength in the quest for human freedom is not material, but spiritual,” he said in his Evil Empire address. “And because it knows no limitation, it must terrify and ultimately triumph over those who would enslave their fellow man.”
From a church classroom in 1920s Dixon, Illinois, to his triumphant mission to Moscow in 1988, Ronald Reagan was both political leader and spiritual crusader. God and Ronald Reagan deepens immeasurably our understanding of how these twin missions shaped his presidency — and changed the world.

Those who claimed the right of individual choice for themselves finally had to grant it to others.”- Calvin Coolidge, May 3, 1925 *DISCOVER HOW TOLERANCE TRANSFORMED ->From Pilgrims ->To Puritans ->To Protestants ->To Catholics ->To “Liberal” Christians ->To Jews ->To Monotheists ->To Polytheists ->To All Religions ->To Atheists ->To only the Politically Correct “The frustrating thing is that those who are attacking religion claim they are doing it in the name of tolerance….
