100 Bible Verses That Made America

Defining Moments That Shaped Our Enduring Foundation of Faith

By: Robert J. Morgan

Narrated by: Robert Morgan

Bestselling author Robert Morgan explores 100 Bible verses that powerfully impacted our leaders during defining moments in American history and reflects upon what these verses mean for us as a nation today.

100 Bible Verses That Made America is a tour through the biblical roots of American history—a powerful exploration of our country’s founders, leaders, and the critical moments that laid the foundation for the formation of the USA. Had there been no Bible, there would be no America as we know it. It is the Bible that made America.

When George Washington was sworn into office as our first president, he did not place his hand on the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States, as important as those documents are. Instead, he swore upon and even kissed the Bible to sanctify this important moment. The Bible, Washington knew, had ushered American history to this point.

While not every Founding Father was a Christian, each was knowledgeable about the Bible. And while none of them was perfect, many embraced a deep faith in the unfailing Word of God.

100 Bible Verses That Made America contains:

• Short, devotional-style chapters, each featuring a Bible verse and how it influenced a historical figure
• Engaging stories spanning from the Mayflower to modern day
• Vivid segments that emphasize the Bible as the cornerstone of American history

Journey with Robert J. Morgan as he shares the Bible’s role in the defining moments of American history and its impact on the people of our nation, reminding us of the beauty of faith and country and reigniting our passion for both.

Critic reviews

'America needs this book to point us to the Book! I've always loved biographies and history. Throw in the Gospels, and I'm caught hook, line, and sinker. Americans have long been told the United States and its educational system were founded on Judeo-Christian principles. Robert J. Morgan shares proof of this in a compelling, documented manner. Oh, how we need to return to our biblical foundations. I love this book!' --Dr. Lyn Cook, co-owner, Cooks Pest Control, and author, Employee Number 2

'For years debate has raged over a simple question: Was America founded as a Christian nation? That discussion brings emotions to the surface from all sides of the political spectrum. The very fact that good and evil coexist in our Western culture makes it impossible to provide a clear and crisp answer. But one thing is for sure: Christianity and the ideas of the Enlightenment merged on the shores of a young America. The wisdom of the Bible leaked into the culture of the New World and created a conscience, individually and collectively, that is evident to this day. Rob Morgan persuasively captures this theme most effectively in 100 Bible Verses That Made America. Reflect on it. Share it with your children and your children's children.' --Edward M. Smith, PhD, president, Williamson College

'I love the simple but powerful way Robert J. Morgan connects us to our nation's past. His simple layout allows me to memorize these verses and appreciate their significance. These one hundred Bible promises are God-breathed. The one hundred stories are God-blessed.' --Greg Vaughn, Grace Ministries founder and president

'I must confess, I cried off and on all the way through the reading of this book. The stories of sacrifice and faithfulness of regular human beings who used the Word of God as their compass brought me to my knees. No doubt, if we today would use the same guiding tool, God might 'forgive our sins and heal our land.' 'Robert J. Morgan, a master storyteller, has done the hard work of finding true stories and breathing life into them so we may be challenged to walk boldly in the twenty-first century. I accept the challenge and will be using this book as a daily devotional. This book bolsters my courage to stand strong for the cause of Christ.' --Kay DeKalb Smith, singer, speaker, humorist

'Rob is one of the most gifted storytellers of our time. In 100 Bible Verses That Made America, he uses his knack for story to trace the staples of Scripture in structuring and sturdying our nation, past and present--how the Bible is the foundation of America's plight to provide liberty and justice for all. Bravo, Rob!' --Andrew Greer, singer-songwriter and cohost of Dinner Conversations with Mark Lowry and Andrew Greer

In moving through 100 verses and 100 dates that shaped the USA, I was reminded again and again how blessed we are as a nation! I recommend this book to everyone who wishes to better understand the American story!

Hope for our Nation, May our future reflect the morality of our past, that we may long endure to Glorify our Maker

All the many people who used the Bible as the basis of their personal belief system

Wow!!! Should be Required Reading in all U. S. History Classes!!!

This is an amazing book that walks you through America’s founding, right up to the present with the Bible verses that our leaders leaned on, often times through prayer. We need more of God and his word in the classroom, not less or none as it stands now. Our future generations will not have a chance if they forget their history and how this great nation became a beacon of hope for the world. This is a must read for TRUE American history and God’s TRUTH that directed our path.
