The Case for God in the Public Square will explain the unique role faith and religion have had in the process that established a nation that would be aware of its dependence on God. It will reveal the Founder’s efforts to rise about religious factionalism with the intention of building a nation whose foundation were not “a religion” but rather, principles, "self-evident truths," rooted in God. It concludes with the proposal that the Founder’s “self evident truths” are not exclusive to one religion but are the immutable truths of God. As such, they can serve us today in a much more pluralistic America, in our quest to realize the ideal of “One Family Under God.”

Building American Character will resonant with the words of the founders who insisted that the personal integrity and virtue of the citizenry was essential for the nation to function and prosper. We will have seen in the presentation on The Crisis of Values the clear incontrovertible truth: as the family goes, so goes the nation. This will expound more deeply on the principle of character development as an essential building block to lasting and happy families. It is a principle that is inseparable from the idea of the existence of God.

In American Leadership and the World we will learn that the gift of liberty has been given by God for a reason. The purpose of freedom is to live for others and to commit acts of altruism. America’s mission to the world is to promote freedom through actions: serving the world through the example of love. In this way, the good news that all are created equal and possess the value of the children of God will spread to the whole world; from every mountainside, freedom will ring.
