About this listen

America is unique. No other nation in the world has experienced the widespread levels of stability, individual prosperity, and personal freedoms that have defined this nation. What made us different from other nations? Was it the people, the principles, or the blessing of God? It was all three, and they caused America to become the most exceptional nation in the history of the world.

Our past is filled with captivating accounts of the brave and the cowardly; of heroes and villains; of atrocities, corruption, and greed as well as self-sacrifice, honor, and redemption. America is not perfect. Yet we have a compelling story of those seeking religious and civil freedom, escaping oppression, pursuing opportunity, and often joining hands to achieve common goals. The American Story highlights this cooperation and presents some of the interesting moments and people that reveal God's Providence in America. We have a fascinating history that must be remembered.

History I was never taught

An absolute must read for any American history lover. Amazing stories of the founding of our country that I have never heard. I am actively redeeming my public school education and will be sharing this book!

The Biblical foundation of the United States

This was a surprise to me! I never learned where our Founding Fathers looked to design the foundation of United States. Too bad this isn’t required reading in our schools today.

A well thought out & reasoned defense of the importance & influence of the Bible in America’s founding & rise.

This book is an American treasure & useful (if not indispensable) resource. The reader’s steady, cadence (and occasional dramatization) made this an easily “digestible” experience.

Where we came from is where we need to get back to

Rebuttal to lies propagated by those who believe they know the truth and refuse to admit it is not!

Love David and Tim Barton

I have heard them speak and I have had several conversations with them both. They are the real deal.

Providence of God in America!!

Oh my goodness!!! I can not say enough good things about this unique and inspiring interpretation of American history. I am overcome with so much emotion and inspiration from this book. I would recommend the whole country to read it. Not only that, I protest it becoming a school book for young children. 🧡🧡

A breath of fresh truth

This book sums up the truth that America is a Christian nation and gives the rest of the story that many speakers of half truths & political talking points fail to bring into historical & national identity discussions.
