Forged in Faith: How Faith Shaped the Birth of the Nation 1607-1776
"This is an excellent and much-needed book by a veteran historian. Well-researched and engagingly written,Forged in Faithis a pleasure to read and an indispensable starting point for a clear understanding of the origins and nature of American government and society." —Steven E. Woodworth, author ofWhile God Is Marching On: The Religious World of Civil War Soldiers“No wonder Americans have always proclaimed, ‘In God We Trust!’ Finally—a work of history that skillfully and accurately reveals the extraordinary story of faith and the founding of our nation. This is truly a book ‘for such a time as this.’” —J. C. Watts, former congressman from Oklahoma"The old proverb is accurate: 'If you dwell in the past you lose an eye; if you forget the past you lose both eyes.” Our beloved America is dangerously close to losing both eyes. Books like Forged in Faith, from men like Rod Gragg, are corrective lenses intensely focused on our national roots. It is what our founding fathers wisely called “a frequent recurrence to fundamentals.' Read it and act." —Stu Weber, senior pastor of Good Shepherd Community Church, Gresham, Oregon; author ofTender Warrior;international speaker--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
