Barely out of her teens, Sophie Scholl stood with her jailer facing the steel and wood contraption of death called the guillotine.

It seemed surreal at first, but then her eyes focused upon the glinting razor-sharp blade and her blood ran cold. Then Sophie felt the rough hand of the jailer on her back, shoving her into the room...

Sophie Scholl, though still a teenager, knew pure evil when she saw it. She created the passive resistance movement White Rose against the Nazis.

Her efforts were gaining momentum when she was suddenly arrested by the Gestapo, the brutal German Secret Police. Her trial was rigged, and she was quickly sentenced to death on the guillotine.

Her final words praising her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ: “I will cling to the rope God has thrown to me in Jesus Christ, even when my numb hands can no longer feel.”

Though very young, Sophie spotted this evil almost immediately. And in the end left prison officials marveling. She said in her letters: “Stand up for what you believe, even if you must stand alone….”

One of my greatest heroes will always be Sophie Scholl. Her courage to the end testifies to us all how one person can make a difference in the name of Christ to help rescue the soul of a nation.

“GEORGE WASHINGTON IS TO BE DRAWN AND QUARTERED!”

56 patriots—America’s Colonial leaders—signed our Declaration of Independence.

Think about it, often those with the most to lose courageously stepped forward knowing they would be targeted by the most powerful king on earth.

Courageously they put their name right where King George III could not miss it on the Declaration of Independence.

The Signers all knew the seriousness of signing a document of high treason against the crown.

They knew George the 3rd would condemn them as traitors, subject to not only arrest, but the confiscation of their property.

Then, their summary execution.

But not just any execution. Drawing and quartering was required for traitors, one of the most painful, humiliating, horribly bloody ways to die fashioned by the creative hand of man.

And they weren’t just risking their own lives. The lives of their families also on the block.

This episode details what happened to these 56 Founders, the Signers of the Declaration of Independence.

Would we, today, be willing to risk it all—including the lives of our families—in the hope of somehow creating a new Republic, built upon the concept of Government of the people, by the people, and for the people?

I think it’s something worth pondering…particularly in our troubled world today.

The Indians called him “The Scalp-Buying General." British Commander Henry Hamilton.

He was the terror of the American Frontier during the American Revolutionary War, hiring the native tribes to collect American scalps and drive out the American settlers in the Ohio River Valley and Kentucky of what was American wilderness in 1779.

One man stood against “The Scalp-Buyer,” the first of America’s Elite Operators, GEORGE ROGERS CLARK led his small company of American Rangers to attack the British holding Fort Vincennes (in what would become Indiana).

Though in the middle of winter in the most miserable of conditions, starving and outnumbered, Colonel Clark and his Rangers outmaneuvered and defeated the British at Fort Vincennes, effectively clearing the British out of what was the American frontier at the time and making these frontier regions safe for American families hoping to settle the West.

A true hero, yet a man few Americans know anything about, training his frontier soldiers to be the first American Rangers and Special Forces operators.

Wondering if there is a way to make a difference when you are "just one person"?

In today's episode we discuss two incredible Shoshoni teenage girls who, despite difficult circumstances, made a BIG impact on our developing country...

Sacajawea and Sally were trailblazers who helped save, and build, this great nation.

Sacajawea is well known for joining and protecting the Lewis and Clark Expedition (1803-1806) as they explored the vast and unknown American West.

Sally is lesser known, but every bit the hero, helping open the primitive West, protecting the downtrodden and struggling, trying to bring her people, the Shoshoni, and the newly arriving whites, together in peace.

Along with her husband, the mountain man Elijah Ward, she was successful, though she dedicated her life to serving others and trying to stop the seemingly inevitable wars that ended up taking many lives, both Indian and white, including—tragically—the life of her husband, Elijah.

In the end, Sacajawea and Sally provided an eternal example proving what must be done if Americans hope to live in peace, to prosper and cooperate, and to help set a worthy example for our troubled world.

We need these great women and their inspiring stories, now more than ever!

JAMES ARMISTEAD LAFAYETTE had every reason to hate George Washington and the Continental Army, for the new republic the Sons of Liberty, and the Continental Congress were promising, would be for white men--at least that what many blacks in America thought.

But to James, that didn't matter. For James Armistead Lafayette was a man of vision. And he loved and respected General George Washington and the American Patriot cause.

Fortunate for us, and the world, that he did. For this American slave would end up helping save the fledgling United States of America.

What's even more admirable and instructive for us today, he did it for a pure and unselfish reason...

Should Christians care about St. Nick? What did he do anyway? WELL, we're glad you asked...

Christianity was dying, being brought down by a Church hierarchy who believed in pomp and ceremony controlled by the Elites, rather than humble service to the struggling masses.

Saint Nicholas helped change that "one good deed at a time." He set the example that altered the course of a struggling Church, returning key leaders to focus on the children and upon humble service, sacrifice, and Christlike love.

Saint Nicholas, among others, helped Christianity get back on course.

Can one man or woman change the course of history? You bet!

And it's happened many times throughout our history, as we illuminate for you, example after example, in the FAMILY FREEDOM MANUAL series.
