In The Miracle of Freedom, Chris and Ted Stewart make a strong case that fewer than five percent of all people who have ever lived on the Earth have lived under conditions that we could consider "free". So where did freedom come from, and how are we fortunate enough to experience it in our day?

Throughout the course of history, civilization has been blessed by strong-minded men and women who have impacted our world in extraordinary ways. Their imprint upon humanity is beyond dispute. And many would contend that they were no less than the result of Divine Providence - a gift of God to the human race. The Mark of a Giant examines the lives and contributions of seven men and women who changed the world: Abraham of Ur, Pericles, the Apostle Paul, Sir Isaac Newton, Marie Curie, Martin Luther King Jr., and Mother Teresa.

Truth is being destroyed, free speech criminalized, the dollar fast becoming worthless. Ideologues at the helm of Big Tech, Big Media, and Big Business are set on the destruction of capitalism and democracy. Powerful federal agencies are no longer protectors of the people, but their primary adversary. Many of our forefathers had to fight a Great War to save their freedom. It falls upon this generation to fight two. But we must not lose hope. There is a way to save our nation.

History is about so much more than memorizing facts. It is, as more than half of the word suggests, about the story. And, told in the right way, it is the greatest one ever written: Good and evil, triumph and tragedy, despicable acts of barbarism and courageous acts of heroism.The things you've never learned about our past will shock you. For example, the reason why gun control is so important to government elites can be found in a story about Athens. Not the city in ancient Greece, but the one in 1946 Tennessee.

He claimed to be the Son of God, and his words - and his life - would change the world. Though David ben Joseph is quick to accept Jesus as the Messiah, the rest of his family is more cautious.

But The Great Reset is not a work of fiction. It is a highly influential movement among the world’s elite to “reset” the global economy using banks, government programs, and environmental, social, and governance metrics.

The history of the United States displays an uncanny pattern: At moments of crisis, when the odds against success seem overwhelming and disaster looks imminent, fate intervenes to provide deliverance and progress. Historians may categorize these incidents as happy accidents, callous crimes, or the products of brilliant leadership, but the most notable leaders of the past 400 years have identified this good fortune as something else - a reflection of divine providence.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

In 2012, on his third tour of duty in Afghanistan, an improvised explosive device left Dan Crenshaw's right eye destroyed and his left blinded. Only through the careful hand of his surgeons, and what doctors called a miracle, did Crenshaw's left eye recover partial vision. And yet, he persevered, completing two more deployments. Why? There are certain stories we tell ourselves about the hardships we face—we can become paralyzed by adversity or we can adapt and overcome. We can be fragile or we can find our fortitude. Crenshaw delivers a set of lessons to help you do just that.

In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings. Beautifully written, original, and revealing, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is an eye-opening story of people and history, and a reexamination of what lies under the surface of ordinary lives and of American life today.

Black Americans have long been shackled to the Democrats. Seeing no viable alternative, they have watched liberal politicians take the Black vote for granted without pledging anything in return. In Blackout, Owens argues that this automatic allegiance is both illogical and unearned. She contends that the Democrat Party has a long history of racism and exposes the ideals that hinder the Black community’s ability to rise above poverty, live independent and successful lives, and be an active part of the American dream.

The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited.

You can't fight what you don't know-Jason Reynolds

By: Jason Reynolds, and others
Publisher's summary
“When the odds were stacked against us - and there have been many times when the great experiment we call America could have and should have failed - did God intervene to save us?”
That question, posed by authors Chris and Ted Stewart, is the foundation for this remarkable book. And the examples they cite provide compelling evidence that the hand of Providence has indeed preserved the United States of America on multiple occasions. Skillfully weaving story vignettes with historical explanations, they examine seven instances that illustrate God’s protecting care:
Never, at any of these critical junctures, was a positive outcome certain or even likely. Yet America prevailed. Why?
“No man is perfect,” write the authors. “And neither is any nation. Yet, despite our weakness, we are still, as Abraham Lincoln said, the best nation ever given to man. Despite our faults, this nation is still the last, best hope of earth.” In short, God still cares what happens here. This reassuring message is a bright light in a world that longs for such hope.

Heroism. Spies and double-agents. And, of course, the unmistakable hand of Divine Providence that guided it all.

Story
By midsummer 1945, Japan had long since lost the war in the Pacific. The people were not told the truth, and neither was the emperor. Japanese generals, admirals, and statesmen knew, but only a handful of leaders were willing to accept defeat. Most were bent on fighting the Allies until the last Japanese soldier died and the last city burned to the ground.

When Thomas Jefferson became president in 1801, America faced a crisis. The new nation was deeply in debt and needed its economy to grow quickly, but its merchant ships were under attack. Pirates from North Africa's Barbary coast routinely captured American sailors and held them as slaves, demanding ransom and tribute payments far beyond what the new country could afford.

Douglas MacArthur was arguably the last American public figure to be worshipped unreservedly as a national hero, the last military figure to conjure up the romantic stirrings once evoked by George Armstrong Custer and Robert E. Lee. But he was also one of America's most divisive figures, a man whose entire career was steeped in controversy. Was he an avatar or an anachronism, a brilliant strategist or a vainglorious mountebank?

History is about so much more than memorizing facts. It is, as more than half of the word suggests, about the story. And, told in the right way, it is the greatest one ever written: Good and evil, triumph and tragedy, despicable acts of barbarism and courageous acts of heroism.The things you've never learned about our past will shock you. For example, the reason why gun control is so important to government elites can be found in a story about Athens. Not the city in ancient Greece, but the one in 1946 Tennessee.

Story
Virtually all Americans above a certain age hold strong opinions about Douglas MacArthur. They either worship him or despise him. Now, in this superb book, one of our most outstanding writers, after a meticulous three-year examination of the record, presents his startling insights about the man. The narrative is gripping, because the general's life was fascinating. It is moving, because he was a man of vision. It ends, finally, in tragedy, because his character, though majestic, was tragically flawed.

All American presidents are commanders in chief by law. Few perform as such in practice. In Roosevelt’s Centurions, distinguished historian Joseph E. Persico reveals how, during World War II, Franklin D. Roosevelt seized the levers of wartime power like no president since Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. Declaring himself "Dr. Win-the-War", FDR assumed the role of strategist in chief, and, though surrounded by star-studded generals and admirals, he made clear who was running the war. FDR was a hands-on war leader, involving himself in everything from choosing bomber targets to planning naval convoys to the design of landing craft.

American History...Brand New...Again!
A few years ago I remember discussing education with a man in his sixties. He told me about how difficult his Bible classes were in high school.
"It sounds like you went to a tough Christian private school!" He looked at me quizzically and said, "Christian school? No, I never went to any religious schools. I was in public school."
I was totally shocked! "Public school!? They taught Bible in the public schools!?"
"Um...yes, up until the sixties every public school taught the Bible from the beginning of this country up until the sixties." He replied as if I was a total moron who didn't know this. "Even grammar books started teaching kids how to read with, 'A' is for Adam." He added.
Well, I didn't know this at all.
I went to public school and was taught some American History. It was mostly positive. Then I got to college and was treated to "real" American History by the great historian, Howard Zinn.
Or so I thought.
Coming from a Communist country my family taught me to be extremely wary of Socialist Leaning professors. "The Revolution started in the colleges. One day we were free, and the next we were at gunpoint," my terror stricken Abuela would tell me.
I did my research on Zinn and was surprised (not really) to find that he didn't claim unbiased objectivity. To him there were no such things as facts. Historical facts were only facts if they shaped the minds of others into believing what he believed, that is, Socialism. (In fact, in the preface to one the editions of his book he even states at much.)
Imagine a star witness in a trial say, "My testimony is not fact. It's "facts" that I hope will change the verdict towards the outcome I want.
Zinn's influence is very widespread with many "prestigious" universities claiming that he's required reading. My university, which was a Leftist's Paradise, was no exception.
History classes have been hijacked by Zinn's teaching and those who agree with his bias. Which is frightening because as the Bible states, "If the foundations be destroyed what can the righteous do?"
You're seeing the effects of this bias in the media, who learned at the knees of Zinn, and who promulgate his bias because, "A lie repeated over and over becomes the truth."
So it's refreshing to once again learn about the truth in "Seven Miracles That Saved America". You remember truth, right? 5 + 5 = 10? The laws of gravity?
This book speaks the truth. In the history of mankind there has never been a country like ours. Our country wasn't a result of a shot in the dark. It wasn't a result of intellectuals finally figuring out how best to govern. It was a result of God's miraculous hand.
Coming from a family of immigrants I hope that this book will instill pride in your country for those of you whose family has been here for generations. I feel that this segment of American citizens takes for granted the great gift God has given them. Not all of them, but some of them. My wife's family just about came off the Mayflower, and they've always been surprised at the unbridled patriotism that my family has always possessed. But my family saw the bloodshed firsthand of Socialist policies. They lived under a bloody, brutal dictatorship who had no regard for any thoughts or opinions they deemed unworthy. When you live under conditions like that you learn to appreciate what it is to be an American.
You scoff at labels such as, "Cuban-American" or "African-American" and embrace the label of "American". My family never needed hyphens to define them. I pray that this book fills you with pride and appreciation for this country, and for the God who put you here.

Loved the content. Reading was clear and strong.
This book is good for the novice to expert history buff or even those who have never explored much of history. It discusses the ways America has been guided and protected by God as a vanguard of freedom for the world.

Thought Provoking Gratitude Promoting
Thought provoking connections of true historic events. If history is the story of our lives, it's often beneficial to look at how individual stories link together and impact our lives. In a day of political divisiveness, apathy, unrest and cynicism, it was nice to read a book that reminds all Americans that one event does contribute to a larger often unseen picture.

We found this to be a remarkable presentation of the miraculous events that preserved America at switch points in our young history. A great read, and a great listen with notable narrators.

Wow! I never knew that!
This is one book all citizens should read no matter what you know about history. Someone or something is watching over this country. I have lived in several countries in Europe and South America. Even our street people have it better than the average citizen in those countries.
