More Description

Rose Weiner leads students into a guided study of Coffin’s Sweet Land of Liberty, originally published as Old Times in the Colonies. In this guide you will analyze the important events in the development of Liberty. You will notice the Hand of God’s Providence moving through historical events as the colonies grew and flourished. Learn how the idea of Christian self-government and freedom of religion, assembly and of the press were hammered out against the teaching of the Bible. Learn how people raised under bigotry and intolerance break free from these old World concepts to embrace the principles of liberty that are now our heritage. Historic documents such as the The Mayflower Compact, John Locke on the Laws of Nature and Civil Government, The First Amendment, the Bill of Rights and other historical documents and literature are brought into the text to make this an intellectual and spiritual feast. Each chapter of the 98-page guide has fill-in-the-blank’s questions to help facilitate personal and group study sessions or home schooling classes.
