For the first 200 years, America was the most admired and envied nation in the world because the core of Western Civilization was based upon the values and virtues of the Christian faith. However, since 1930, secular humanists have strived to remove any notion of a sovereign Lord from our heritage and to replace it with our loyalty to the global community. While there are many reasons for this secular shift, those Holy Days and Sacred Traditions that once linked generations together, i.e., Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, have been replaced with secular holidays; they have been liberated from their original meaning and their value to transfer the truth to the next generation. The American culture that was based on the Judeo-Christian values of respect for human life and the golden rule has become an anti-God, antiChrist culture with no respect for human life and those who have the gold rules. Therefore, to survive as a nation, we must reaffirm the traditions of our Judeo-Christian heritage, and I pray for such a revival to begin in your house as you take the time to make sure your children know the truth about how God has blessed America. Thank you for forwarding these sermon study guides to those you think might be interested. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

According to the diary of William Bradford, the English Puritan who sailed to North America aboard the Mayflower, in the fall of 1621, the 56 surviving pilgrims held a three-day feast to celebrate their first harvest. They invited the Wampanoag Indians to join them to show their appreciation for teaching them how to grow and preserve food. (Full details to follow)
For the last 50 years, Americans have endured a deliberate and purposeful disregard for the core values and moral virtues that defined Western Civilization in General and America.
