Thank you for visiting Christian Heritage Fellowship! Our organization exists to advocate the Christian worldview of America’s founding fathers and historic Christianity. Resisting the historical revisionism that seeks to deny Christianity’s rightful legacy in national and world affairs, Christian Heritage Fellowship seeks to articulate the true heritage of the Christian Church in America and around the world.
While issues of greatest importance may be accessed through the menu at the top of each page, users may access our articles through various finding aids located on this page and each article. Our articles are designed to elevate Christians’ appreciation for their faith, deepen their love for the Lord Jesus Christ, and provide them with rational, historical, and biblical answers in the midst an unbelieving world.
