When the United States Capitol Was a Church
When the United States Capitol Was a Church

So deep and strong was the connection of government to the Christian faith in early America that the relationship was recognized in a variety of ways. Few realize that the United States Capitol was used as a church for years before it was used to convene the United States Congress. For nearly three-quarters of a century, the United States Capitol was used for church services. In fact, it became a meeting place for a number of churches in Washington D.C. While secularists wish to keep this and many other similar historical facts quiet, this fact is one of thousands that witnesses to the spiritual heritage America's Founding Fathers have bequeathed to succeeding generations.When the United States Capitol Was a Church will encourage believers to stand upon their Christian heritage and assist them in striving to leave a godly legacy to succeeding generations.

St. Nicholas—How a Christian Pastor Became Santa Claus
St. Nicholas—How a Christian Pastor Became Santa Claus

In the twenty-first century, many of the influences of the Christian faith have been obscured and belittled by secular and irreligious forces. Among the many arenas of cultural disagreement between Christians and non-Christians is the observance of holidays. For decades, Christmas—one of the most sacred seasons on the Christian calendar—has been one of the numerous arenas of conflict. Few recognize that the cultural icon of Santa Claus is one of the many, many influences of Christianity upon the Christmas season. St. NicholasSt. Nicholas—How a Christian Pastor Became Santa Claus sketches the transformation of the legacy of a Christian pastor—Nicholas of Myra—into the fictitious Santa Claus. Though his life was historically celebrated on December 6, the caricature of Santa Claus has come to supplant the real purpose of Christmas—the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Following the historical transformation of Nicholas into Santa Claus, readers are invited to return to an appreciation of the true life of Nicholas and the Lord whom he served.St. Nicholas Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

The Possibilities of Prayer
The Possibilities of Prayer

He is perhaps the foremost known author on prayer. Edward McKendree Bounds—named in honor of Methodist bishop, William McKendree—is remembered across denominational and theological lines for his insightful works on prayer. For more than a century, Bounds’ works—such as Power Through Prayer and many others—have been a source of inspiration to generations of ministers and laity alike.E. M. Bounds, as he is popularly known, was a Confederate chaplain, minister, and editor with the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Having attained a position of editorial leadership in his denomination, he exercised his duties with fidelity to an historical interpretation of Scripture. But, by the end of the nineteenth century, the church in America and throughout Europe was being seduced by the rising influence of Darwinism. Bounds, however, was unwilling to acquiesce to the liberalism that was tutored by the myth of Darwinism and so found himself at odds with the Methodist leadership that was all too eager to renounce the biblical theology of John Wesley.Sharing a common spiritual and theological heritage with E. M. Bounds, Douglas Lane has built upon Bounds’ time-honored work of The Possibilities of Prayer. Douglas has developed a companion study guide or workbook which invites readers to consider more carefully Bounds’ biblical teaching on this important subject. At the end of each chapter, readers will discover study questions, topics for discussion, and a source of biblical references. Christian Heritage Fellowship is proud to partner with Douglas in sending this work to press. We do so with the sincere hope it will be a blessing to God’s people and that it might be used to help initiate an era in which the Church most accurately reflects the character of its Lord. May God make it so! NOTE: Sold individually. Distributed through Amazon and made available when desired by hosts at Christian Heritage events. Please email us concerning bulk prices.

Build Upon the Rock: John Quincy Adams’ Letters on the Bible and Its Teachings
Build Upon the Rock: John Quincy Adams’ Letters on the Bible and Its Teachings

In 1809, President James Madison appointed John Quincy Adams as America's first ambassador to Russia. Leaving his oldest son behind in America, Mr. Adams—sensible of his spiritual obligation to his son—began to write a series of letters to help provide basic guidance to his son concerning his son's spiritual disciplines, the importance of Bible study, and it basic teachings. His admonition to his son was, "build upon the Rock" of the Lord Jesus Christ. Though written with their oldest son-George-in mind, Mr. Adams fully intended that these nine letters also be kept and collected for the benefit of "brothers and sisters." Originally published in 1850, the Letters of John Quincy Adams are now once again available in this special presentation edition. Get your copy today! NOTE: Sold individually.

The United States a Christian Nation
The United States a Christian Nation

Justice David Josiah BrewerThe United States a Christian Nation provides further reflections from the Associate Justice of the Supreme Court who wrote the majority opinion on February 29, 1892 (Holy Trinity vs. The United States), calling America a "Christian nation." Providing not only historical evidence for his opinion, Justice David Brewer sets out to provide additional insight into the way America can maintain greatness through the influence of Christianity. Contrary to the liberal desire to deny Christianity any social influence, Justice Brewer insists that only through the use of Christian principles is it possible for America to maintain its greatness. This elaboration by Justice Brewer upon the influence of Christianity is a powerful antidote to secular interpretations of America's heritage. Get your copy today!
