America’s Founding and Why it is Relevant to Young Christians
God has blessed us through the protections and freedoms guaranteed under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Our students live in a world that is drifting further and further away from God’s Word. Studying America’s Founding Era can encourage meaningful dialogue about our responsibility as Christians and as Americans. Just as we explore the Bible and apply God’s Word to our lives, we can study the Founding Era that produced our republic and make meaningful applications to our Christian Life and Ministry.
