Verna M. HallAMERICA’S CHRISTIAN HISTORY
Its Distinctives and Importance

Excerpts from an Address By Verna M. Hall, December 1980

There is indeed a stirring in the land—the Lord’s stirring of His people for the preservation and rebuilding of America—the world’s first Christian Republic. It is like unto Haggai 1:14, “And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedeck, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of hosts, their God.” Matthew Henry, the colonial clergy’s commentator says of this passage, “When God has work to do, he will either find or make men fit to do it, and stir them up to it.”

Learning and teaching America’s Christian history and education is GOD’S WORK, as we will show you — it is not just an academic course, an interesting study, a personal theory or idea. IT IS THE LORD’S WORK, which is why it is so important for God’s people to KNOW it, and why it is so dangerous for them to continue to ignore it, which they have done now for at least a hundred years. God’s people have indeed been tempting God, and it is an exceedingly dangerous business.

Rush Limbaugh III

The Americans Who Risked Everything

by Rush H. Limbaugh, Jr.

My father, Rush H. Limbaugh, Jr., delivered this oft-requested address locally a number of times, but it had never before appeared in print until it appeared in The Limbaugh Letter. My dad was renowned for his oratory skills and for his original mind; this speech is, I think, a superb demonstration of both. I will always be grateful to him for instilling in me a passion for the ideas and lives of America's Founders, as well as a deep appreciation for the inspirational power of words which you will see evidenced here:

"OUR LIVES, OUR FORTUNES, OUR SACRED HONOR"
It was a glorious morning. The sun was shining and the wind was from the southeast. Up especially early, a tall bony, redheaded young Virginian found time to buy a new thermometer, for which he paid three pounds, fifteen shillings. He also bought gloves for Martha, his wife, who was ill at home.

Thomas Jefferson arrived early at the statehouse. The temperature was 72.5 degrees and the horseflies weren't nearly so bad at that hour. It was a lovely room, very large, with gleaming white walls. The chairs were comfortable. Facing the single door were two brass fireplaces, but they would not be used today.

One Nation Under GodAmerica, a Christian Nation? Examining the Evidence of the Christian Foundation of America
by Stephen McDowell

Many people today claim that America is not now nor ever has been a Christian nation. Yet, the Founders of America spoke of her as a Christian nation many times. They recognized America, not as an ecclesiastical state where the church ruled nor one without sin, but as a nation founded on Biblical principles, where Biblical truth and law were the standard for public life, law, and societal institutions. This book exams the broad evidence of the Christian foundation of America; and also addresses the claim that America is now pluralistic and thus Christianity must be treated like all other beliefs, concluding, as did America's Founders, that Christianity is the source of liberty, and if its principles are ignored, no freedom and permanent happiness are possible.

One Nation Under GodWORSHIP NOT THE CREATURE
ANIMAL RIGHTS AND THE BIBLE
by J.Y. Jones

This soon to be published title delivers the most forthright and engaging presentation of the Biblical view of animals in print. J. Y. Jones, long an accomplished physician, scholar, writer, outdoorsman, hunter, and man of God, is uniquely qualified to offer his cutting-edge treatment of this controversial topic. Don't let the down-to-earth, diverting and friendly style fool you. Just as America’s wise Founding Fathers discovered latent tyranny in a penny tea tax, Dr. Jones powerfully exposes the radical political agenda of the contemporary animal rights movement.
