Most Americans do not know that Abraham Lincoln, when elected president, went from “apostate to prophet” all in those critical four years of the Civil War.

And helping along his miraculous conversion was a humble, yet highly capable, Army nurse by the name of Rebecca Pomroy.

What she was able to accomplish with the Lincoln Family in the White House that dreadful winter of 1862 changed the course of history.

This is the often-ignored story of the genuine miracle a long-suffering Christian woman offered to Abraham and Mary Lincoln, a miracle “cure” for not only their son Tad, but also Mary and the President himself.

In the process she helped save the American Republic and emancipate America’s slaves, accomplishing what the pundits of the time thought could never be done!

We have reached a milestone in America’s beloved past. The 249th and 250th year anniversary of this grand experiment in republicanism, in self-government, but mostly in individual freedom.

But, ironically, as of late, we are facing the gravest challenge we have ever faced. And the danger, tragically, is coming from within.

Now is the time to look beyond the propaganda and embrace the true history of American greatness, a nation where our Founders “offered their lives, their fortunes, their sacred honor” in the cause of liberty.

This was a gathering of men and women unlike any in history. I thank the Lord every day that such men and women were willing to step forward at great personal risk.

And as we celebrate 250 years from these sacred events, I hope and pray that we as a nation will be worthy of, and grateful for, their Divinely inspired sacrifice in our behalf.

The massive British Army under the command of General John Burgoyne, was rushing to attack and destroy Washington’s Continental Army.

The Americans needed time to prepare.

And young Thaddeus with his unique skills would give the Americans that time.

Moving fast with his engineers and rangers, Thaddeus and his team cut trees in the path of the British, laid out traps and ambushes, built dams to flood the streams and rivers making the trails and roads ahead of the British Army impassable.

The British Army went from covering 60 miles per day to less than two! Bogged down, the powerful and proud British and Hessian forces suddenly found themselves the prey.

And at the ensuing Battle of Saratoga, the American Continental Army defeated the British soundly in the turning point in America’s War for Independence, much credited to a young immigrant to America who served without pay, fame, or glory.

His name was THADDEUS KOSCIUSZKO one of the least known, yet critical American Patriots from our illustrious past. This is his story…

On a sweltering July day in 1863, the quiet town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania exploded!

This tiny hamlet became the center of the decisive battle for the world’s most pivotal nation locked passionately in its final death throes.

The clash between North and South would decide the fate not only of our nation, but by extension, the world.

It would be a horribly bloody three-days producing more than 51,000 casualties—mostly young men—husbands, sons, fathers, and brothers.

And on that critical day, an unknown professor from Maine—JOSHUA LAWRENCE CHAMBERLAIN—who was anything but a professional soldier—a bit spindly and way too intellectual—would etch his name into the annuals of freedom forever…

“I will get my hands on that American woman and destroy her!”

This was the threat of Klaus Barbie, the local Gestapo chief, known as the “Butcher of Lyon.”

The powers of hell seemed to be gathering all around young Virginia Hall. She was simply out of time.

More so, thousands of young American Rangers would be soon landing on the beaches of Normandy. She and her resistance fighters must help prepare the way or thousands would die.

She and her men had to act immediately to cut railway lines, blow up bridges, change road signs, cut phonelines, all the while knowing that the German secret police, the infamous Gestapo, was closing in on her hiding place…

They loved each other for 54 years.

Even as Abigail lay on her deathbed, John sat by her holding her hand.

They had been through everything together—declaring independence from the most powerful empire on earth, the American Revolution, creating a great republic from a divided people, opposing slavery, representing the United States abroad, and then the American presidency.

Abigail and John were a team, perhaps the most important in the history of this country. And what they accomplished changed the course of history, not only for this land, but for the world.

She made 19 highly risky trips back into the South to save hundreds...

During the Civil War she also scouted for the Union Army.

HARRIET TUBMAN is a well-known American hero who risked her life to help escaping slaves.

What is not known about her was what drove her fervently, a passion that is today often suppressed by historians, increasingly removing her powerful testimony of Jesus, and of miracles, from the historical record.

America’s young people need to see how the Spirit of God can be a powerful motivator for good. The true, complete story of Harriet Tubman must be brought back to help rekindle our vital connection to God.

The young woman, Ella, watched as her father and brothers were beheaded before her eyes.

She, along with her younger sister, were tied together with the captive women and children, now the slaves and concubines of the Arab invaders. Ella feared she would never see her mother and her beloved homeland again.

For the first time in history, a great Muslim Army under the command of General Abd-al-Rahman al-Ghafiqi, invaded what would become the heartland of Christian Europe to loot and conquer.

But standing in General Abd-al-Rahman’s way was one of the truly great, yet little-known, heroes of Western Civilization. His name, CHARLES MARTEL. But to his loyal men, Knights of Our Lord, he was known “affectionately” as The Hammer.

In fact, I believe he was prepared purposely by God. In this Episode you will see how the choices, the leadership, the sacrifice of one man shaped who you are today.
