Book Description
Nineteenth-century globalization made America exceptional. On the back of European money and immigration, America became an empire with considerable skill at conquest but little experience administering other people's, or its own, affairs, which it preferred to leave to the energies of private enterprise. The nation's resulting state institutions and traditions left America immune to the trends of national development and ever after unable to persuade other peoples to follow its example. In this concise, argumentative book, Eric Rauchway traces how, from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, the world allowed the United States to become unique and the consequent dangers we face to this very day.

Book Description
In today’s political climate, where most American Christians feel increasingly excluded, this book provides a step-by-step guide on how to apply historical references—as well as the words of past American leaders—as an avenue to reintroducing Christian principles into the political discussions of contemporary America. American history is full of demonstrations of faith and references to Christian principles. The very foundation of our nation rests upon ideas that were greatly influenced by the teachings of the Bible. In today’s America, there is a growing movement to silence Christianity from the public square. Many in our society today preach that Christianity has no place in the political structure of our nation. An increasingly vocal assembly of secular Americans wishes to restrict the principles of Christian faith entirely from our government. More and more, believers of the Bible are told to keep silent and not to interfere with the progress of America. Fortunately for religious Americans, there is an ample amount of our nation’s history that supports the right of Bible-believers to participate in politics. The purpose of this book is to reassure American Christians of their rightful place in our republic. More than ever before, American Christians need to be active in politics.

Book Description
For the millions of people who reside outside their native countries, Blessed Migrants shares God's strategy in reaching the changing world through teaching Abraham's four everlasting promises. Dr. Samuel Lee, founder of Jesus Christ Foundation Churches and an international outreach ministry, answers a personal calling to help migrants understand the important role they play in the kingdom of God and to encourage revivals in their hosting nations. By discussing the history of migrants through Biblical stories, he illustrates how today migrants can becomes an instrument of love and a blessing to others-literally transforming themselves into modern-day Abrahams, Josephs, Jacobs and Ruths. Dr. Lee also focuses on the biblical conditions that must be realized in order for current migrants to be blessed and how a Christian migrant can successfully interact with other cultures and host nations. Several migrant-exporting nations are described including the Philippines, Africa, and Korea. Abraham was a migrant and pioneer of faith who dutifully followed the Lord's command. The blessings he received from God still to this day remain inspiration for migrants who want to make a global impact through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Book Description
“Representative Bradstreet’s Biblical approach and his grasp of our founding history make this book a ‘must read’ for those who want to understand American Exceptionalism and our way forward.” —Representative Lee Chatfield, Speaker of the House, Michigan House of Representatives. America is indeed an exceptional nation. America is the dreamed for destination for immigrants throughout the world desiring to take part in the American Dream. Certainly America’s “Exceptionalism” is the natural product of many things. But there is a main cause that most Americans today simply do not own up to. And if America’s Exceptionalism is to continue we need to understand what caused it in the first place. If we do not understand or if we are unwilling to embrace that main cause of our success, we are destined to lose it all.

This is the season that God is speaking and blessing His children. All spiritual blessings are in heavenly places.

Book Description
"Blessed Nation" is a call to Americans to reclaim their national moral heritage. The result of a four-year investigation relying on over 10,000 pages of presidential documents and messages from the time of George Washington to Dwight Eisenhower, and containing excerpts from America's founding documents and the Continental Congress, "Blessed Nation" unmasks the relationship between God and the United States as it was intended by America's founding fathers and clarifies their belief in the essential role that religion and religious morality play in government and society. "Blessed Nation" challenges the modern interpretation of separation of church and state by making a clear distinction between the United States as a secular government and the widely-held, but false, notion that it embraces the philosophy of secularism. Relying on direct quotes from America's presidents respecting the roles that God and religion must play in a free society-excerpted from their numerous proclamations, addresses, executive orders, and veto messages-"Blessed Nation" constitutes a formidable foundation of evidence which coalesces to build a substantial case that the United States government was intended to be a partnership between God, the American people, and their government. "Blessed Nation" is a complete, objective compilation of quotations on the topic by America's presidents, each presented within its proper context. It is intended to be a reference work for anyone who wishes to examine the evidence collected from primary sources, unfiltered by the motives and biases that underlie the campaign of misinformation being disseminated today.
