Discover the forgotten and astonishing story of our nation's founding in The American Heritage Series. For centuries, we were taught a providential view of American history that presented our godly heroes and the moral foundation upon which our nation was built. However, in recent years, a new version of history has assaulted the fiber of our nation, censoring the core values of our past - until today!
From separation of church and state to the civil rights movement, from the heroism of our founding fathers to the building of our nation's monuments, this series will inspire every American to reclaim the godly, true story of our nation.
