Perhaps it's commonly overlooked and not taught but, America has a heritage of Christian character. It's up to us to learn about it and to restore it to our nation.
.
So, what's it going to take to restore our heritage of Christian character to America? Firstly, it begins with the individual. Once the individual has the Biblical understanding of this and how it was sown in America, then the individual can make a difference as he or she applies it to their life.

We think you'll find this information valuable and worth your time.
.
In this podcast episode we address the following to help you understand the Principle of America's Heritage of Christian Character:
- Christian character--why it's our hope
- Ephesians 4:13 and maturity in Christ
- thoughts expressed by Neander and John Adams
- some character issues of today
- Jesus as a middle schooler,
- Biblical character--what is it?

Are you aware that Christian self-government begins in the home?
.
Do you know that in order to help restore Christian Character to America that Christian self-government first begins with the individual (let's say parents, for example) and then it flows to the children as the parents teach and model self-governing choices?
.
We think you'll find this information valuable and worth your time.
.
In this podcast episode we address the following to help you understand God's Principle of Self-Government in the home:
- family government (does it begin *in* the parents or *by* the parents?)
- how government in the schools impact families and our nation
- Biblical and non-Biblical methods of governance in the classroom
- family to the church, voluntary organizations, and civil government
- why Americans established Christian Self-Government as their form of civil government
- the two different ways individuals may be governed
- choices of government (historical and Biblical)
- and more . . .
