America's Past - A Christian's Narrative

America's Past: A Christian's Narrative explores the history of the United States through a unique combination of stories and documents that capture the dreams, fears, and visions involved in the creation of our country. This book is not dedicated to the religious history of America, but rather tells the story of the nation through a Christian lens. The text includes 14 chapters that progress in chronological order, beginning with events and stories from pre-Columbian America (1450-1620) and concluding with material from post-Civil War Reconstruction. The poignant narratives included throughout the book help to shed light on why America still struggles with accusations of imperialism and racism but also remains a bastion of freedom for many. Readers learn how America's foundation in Christian faith equipped our society with core doctrines of good will, equality, and freedom that can help us continue to defend the marginalized, defenseless, and disenfranchised in modern times. Each chapter presents readers with a timeline; key terms, individuals, and events; engaging narratives that introduce important actors; Major Moments sections to help them quickly identify main takeaways; and reflection questions meant to stir inquiry about the human spirit. Developed to help readers learn from our nation's history and contextualize its present, America's Past is an excellent resource for courses and programs in American history.
