Ever wonder why everyone wants to immigrate to America? Rediscovering America answers that question, and it’s like no other history you have ever read. More than an account of people, dates, and events, this story is about the hidden hand of a purposeful historical development where the main actors are colorful characters, participating in an American drama of little known but remarkable events where overcoming incredible odds of failure is more unbelievable and engaging than fiction. And while each chapter is a stand-alone tale—some quite wild—about what is behind each of the American holidays, the page- and chapter-turning appeal of Rediscovering America is in the narratives that link the holiday stories together, revealing an account of progress and redemption in America covering over four hundred years—never before told in a concise and readable book.
The American public has been told what recent historians wanted them to believe: the United States is not a Christian nation. This is true in only one respect.

The catalyst for the birth of our nation was the moment when Benjamin Franklin, incorrectly considered a Deist by many, suggested t...
History is full of people who have claimed they came from God or bore messages from God, such as Confucius, Buddha, Bahaullah, Muhammed, Jesus, and many others. Buddhists believe in the wheel of reincarnation to reach nirvana or nothingness. Hindus believe God reveals Himself through various avatars. Muslims believe Muhammed is the final prophet and Jesus is not the Son of God. Orthodox Jews deny Jesus as the Messiah. Christians believe Jesus fulfilled the Messianic prophecies and is the Son of God. Atheists deny God’s existence altogether! These belief systems cannot all be true, so how can we know who is telling the truth? Promoting religious literacy is crucial to addressing the devastating impact of false religions. Religious literacy enables individuals to critically evaluate different belief systems, recognize the signs of manipulation, and differentiate between genuine spiritual teachings and false ideologies. Find out how to determine whether there is a God and which faith is telling the truth in this book, which applies a litmus test to seek God’s revelation to humanity through His prophets and prophecies.
