In December of 2018, I had a dream in which I saw American history from heaven’s perspective. I was shocked by how different heaven’s understanding of our history was from ours. For example, heaven did not consider the American colonies to have won The Revolutionary War. From heaven’s perspective,...

America is now being presented with some of its greatest opportunities as it faces some of its greatest crises. It is our history and heritage to turn challenges into the victories. The victories come from facing the greatest challenges. Just as warriors run to the sound of battle, not away from it...

When we open our shades at night, darkness does not pour into our house—the light shines out into the darkness. Light is stronger than darkness and will always ultimately prevail over it. As light is a metaphor for truth, we can be sure that likewise the truth will always ultimately prevail. So, in...

In 2019 a study determined that America was the most negative country in the world. For most of our history, we were known as one of the most positive countries ever.

One of the first of these was William...

The American Republic grew into nationhood like no other nation in recorded history. The English colonies were given the freedom of religion and self-government in their charters. Other nations that attained any degree of these usually did so over centuries, or even millennia, of tedious and...

What do the terms “left” and “right,” “liberal” and “conservative” really mean? Because definitions can change in a short period of time, we are looking at these for what they mean today. For example, the term “liberal” comes from the word “liberator.” This was the term that the American patriots...
