Guardians of Liberty will equip you to live in your God-given freedom. Learn the principles and actions that enable you to be free. Liberty is God’s design for you!

James Madison, George Washington, Patrick Henry— our founders all agreed—if you don’t want to live under tyrannical government, you must govern yourself. Robert Winthrop, in 1852, said it well: “Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled, either by a power within them or by a power without them; either by the word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible, or by the bayonet.”

Furthermore, our founders thought private property was so important that they created a government that protected property. Property is both internal (our thoughts, ideas, conscience, character) and external (liberties, homes, land and possessions). Our founders believed people had to be virtuous to be free. If we lose our virtue, we’re doomed. Our founders formed a government based on the Scriptures, in particular the principles of government that God gave to the Israelites through Moses.

When you read Guardians of Liberty you will learn how to conduct your life, how to live a life pleasing to God, and how to be free!

What a treasure. Odyssey of Faith has provided a beautiful link in my understanding of the history of our nation, and even of God’s plan to share His love with the world. What a handsome production.

My mind is awhirl with thoughts of how to help others, especially all those involved in Christian education, to become more aware and more appreciative of the truths revealed by this book. At the same time, I am embarrassed to realize how many students I led through the history of America without offering them, in my ignorance, a clue about God’s involvement in our first permanent colony.

What does this mean for me? As a recipient of the riches of God’s grace and blessing, and a beneficiary of the godly aims and goals of those first settlers, I am a part of this Odyssey of Faith, as are each of those students I was teaching. Our own odyssey of faith is a part of that begun by Martin Luther and the reformers, and taken up by those leaders in England in the 1600s, and those courageous commoners who climbed aboard those ships and headed for the new world.

What can I do to reach the “salvages” living in our nation today? Their numbers are growing once again, and their “arrows” are striking and hurting God’s family, the Christian Church. Odyssey of Faith is both armor and armament against the onslaughts of Satan’s tribe.

I’m not sure just yet where this will lead, but I hope to find a way to be of service to those who are leading today’s students in the Lutheran schools of our nation.

Thank you, most sincerely, for your gift, Chris and Max. May God continue His blessings upon you and all those engaged in the Savior’s mission, to “disciple all nations.”

Our secular age tends to assume that our forefathers were as those of today. Accordingly, when they write history, they often distort the role of religion in history, or more often, they filter it out, leaving us to assume that religion just wasn’t very important to those who settled this country.

This is especially true of Jamestown, where even tour guides will tell sometimes us the Jamestown settlers had no interest in God. This leaves us with a distorted picture of how the Jamestown settlers thought, why they crossed the Atlantic, and what they did when they arrived. And it is possible to give the impression that Jamestown was purely secular without distorting a single fact but rather by telling the facts selectively. Sometimes the telling of history is shaped not by what is told but by what is left out.

But this leaves an incomplete picture of Jamestown. Laws and customs are shaped by moral values, and moral values are based on religion. What the Jamestown settlers believed about God and the Bible is therefore of utmost importance.

And that’s why Odyssey of Faith: The Colony of Virginia, Jamestown, and You, by Chris Evans, is a vital and timely contribution. Going back to original documents rather than just following modern sources, Evans gives us the story behind the story: the vision of Richard Hakluyt of Christian colonies in North America, the Charter of the Virginia Company signed by King James I which declares the purpose of the colony to be the conversion of the “salvages” to Christianity, the faithful ministry of Rev. Robert Hunt and Rev. Alexander Whittaker, the Christian character of Captain John Smith, the conversion of Pocahontas, and so much more.

Beautifully illustrated, Odyssey of Faith is directed toward children, but adults will learn much from reading it. With the help of the Teacher Guide, Odyssey will be a spiritually uplifting learning experience for you and your children.

“Providential history – like the grace that inspires it- is redemptive: refreshingly innocent, but eternally fecund. In a time when scorn for the noble and defilement of virtue abound, this little tome celebrates unabashedly the good. It will sow seeds of greatness in the young minds of tomorrow’s Virginians. Generations will be inspired by the bold zeal, resilient faith and providential provision of the first settlers, who brought the early seeds of Reformation to New World.”

“Odyssey of Faith elegantly mixes the adventure and the testimony that its title promises. It imparts eternal principles and surprises us with the “whizz” of flying arrows while teasing curious young minds with rich leading questions.”
