This week, our topic is Pilgrims, Prophets, and Preachers: The Faith That Shaped a Nation, an engaging class exploring how faith and spiritual conviction shaped the American story. From the courage of the Pilgrims, to the bold voices of modern-day prophets, to the passionate preaching of revivalists, we’ll trace the powerful influence of faith on America’s founding, growth, and cultural identity. Together, we’ll uncover the stories of men and women whose biblical commitment helped shape our nation’s character and destiny. This class will challenge and inspire you to see history through the lens of faith — and to consider how God might use ordinary people to do extraordinary things today. Come and discover the faith that shaped a nation — and still shapes us now.
