One Nation Always Under God

Profiles in Christian Courage

De: Tim Scott

Narrado por: Tim Scott

New York Times bestselling author and Senator Tim Scott explains that in every state, in every decade, America has been built on faith.

From our Founding Fathers to today’s heroes of faith, Christianity has been the bedrock of our nation's greatness. In One Nation Always Under God, South Carolina Senator Tim Scott shows how Christian values forged our legal system, educational institutions, healthcare, social services, and more.

One Nation Always Under God is filled with inspiring stories of American Christians whose heroic advocacy has moved the nation forward, including

• Abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, who faced an angry mob trying to destroy his newspaper
• Apollo 13 astronaut Jim Lovell, whose faith sustained him 200,000 miles from Earth
• Dorothea Dix, who revolutionized how America dealt with mental health
• Eddie Rickenbacker, an aging WWI ace who stepped up to command soldiers stranded in the Pacific in 1942
• Norman Borlaug, a scientist whose discoveries saved a billion people from starvation

...and more. These stories exemplify both the American spirit of adventure and the Christian love of serving others.

Far from being confined to the Constitutional Convention or church pews, faith has been the driving force behind America's innovation, prosperity, and moral leadership, Scott asserts. While the forces of secularism and moral relativism try to ban God from the public square, they cannot truly remove Him from our national DNA.

Senator Scott reminds us that we stand on the shoulders of giants—courageous Christians who faced seemingly insurmountable odds yet persevered through faith. Their stories will stir the heart and awaken the hero within you. One Nation Always Under God is more than a history lesson. It's a rallying cry for all who believe that America's promise is rooted in timeless biblical principles.

Immediately relevant guidebook in the wake of the murder of Charlie Kirk

I started reading (listening to) this book after the president recommended it. He hasn’t steered me wrong yet. I just finished it this evening on September 14th, 4 days after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I’d have finished it sooner, but it has been a crazy few weeks. Two major life events, including the birth of my second child last week, and then the death of Charlie. I’m not an emotional man. However, Charlie’s murder this week was only bearable because of my faith and my family. They are beauty in my life where darkness has become so forward and overtly wicked. I’ve felt this sense of pain four other times in my life before. I know it, unfortunately, too well. I felt it on 9/11/01 when I woke up to my mother’s cries to turn on the TV only to see the second tower get hit and hear my mother moan in grief from the other side of the house. I felt it when my wife and I lost our children after each of our three miscarriages. I never knew Charlie personally, but I felt the same grief. Like something terrible was lost for our country and taken from my family, personally. Like my God-given rights and the rights of my two children were taken away from me in the most violent and merciless way. Mr. Scott, I know you didn’t write this book knowing it would relate to this terrible event….but it does. EVERYONE needs to read this book right now. Everything feels so dark, and if they won’t get into the WORD directly, then this is the next best and immediately relevant AMERICAN thing that people need right now. We need to get back into the light, shamelessly. Thank you for the book sir.

A man of God

Great stories about Godly men that worked hard and succeeded in their enterprises while never compromising their faith.

God and Country

Love the how the stories in this book integrates great men and women of US history with their unbreakable and enduring faith in the God who created us and helped make our nation free and strong.

Wonderful narration and relevant stories

So refreshing to listen to a book with interesting true stories focusing on how God has been with our people and our nation since the beginning. Tim Scot has a wonderful voice with great inflection. In a world filled with chaos this book provided a reminder that adversity has always been with us and with God’s help we will persevere just as others before us have done so.

Greatness of America

Senator Scott is a masterful story teller. His delivery of Americans doing extraordinary deeds brought me to tears many times. I remember reading many of these stories in grade school in the early 1950’s and hope they can return to our classrooms with the same delivery. I can imagine using Senator Scott’s book or the audio version to tell our students of the greatness of the American idea and the men and women that have kept that greatness alive.
