The Jefferson Lies
Summary
The American public was nearly deprived of the opportunity to hear this book. In 2012, popular historian David Barton set out to correct what he saw as the distorted image of a once-beloved Founding Father, Thomas Jefferson, in what became a New York Times best-selling book, The Jefferson Lies. Despite the wildly popular success of the original hardcover edition, or perhaps because of it, a campaign to discredit Barton's scholarship was launched by bloggers and a handful of non-historian academics. What happened next was shocking, virtually unprecedented in modern American publishing history. Under siege from critics, the publisher spiked the book and recalled it from the retail shelves from coast to coast. The Jefferson Lies is thus a history book that made history, becoming possibly the first book of its kind to be victimized by the scourge of political correctness. But more than three years later, it's back as an updated edition in which Barton sets the record straight and takes on the critics who savaged his work. And that's just part of the story. Why did this book spark so much controversy? It could only happen in an America that has forgotten its past. Its roots, its purpose, its identity, all have become shrouded behind a veil of political correctness bent on twisting the nation's founding, and its Founders, beyond recognition. The time has come to remember again. This new audio edition of The Jefferson Lies re-documents Barton's research and conclusions as sound, and his premises true. It tackles seven myths about Thomas Jefferson head-on and answers pressing questions about this incredible statesman, including: Did Thomas Jefferson really have a child by his young slave girl, Sally Hemings? Did he write his own Bible, excluding the parts of Christianity with which he disagreed? Was he a racist who opposed civil rights and equality for Black Americans? Did he, in his pursuit of separation of church and state, advocate the secularizing of public life Through Jefferson's own words and the eyewitness testimony of contemporaries, Barton repaints a portrait of the man from Monticello as a visionary, an innovator, a man who revered Jesus, a classical Renaissance man, and a man whose pioneering stand for liberty and God-given inalienable rights fostered a better world for this nation and its posterity. For America, the time to remember these truths is now.

The Signs of the Times, Volume 3
Summary
Seven great chapters that reveal where we are in the last days. Chapter One - America's Coming Implosion by Robert Jeffress As we watch economic decline, immorality, terrorism, and blasphemy, rarely have American Christians been more pessimistic and fearful of our country's future. Chapter Two - Dangers of the Growing Emergent Church by Bob DeWaay Can 80% of the churches embracing some or all of the "emergent" and "purpose driven" characteristics be wrong? Yep. And Bob raised a lot of eyebrows with his "verse after verse" assault on these man-centered doctrines that could very well qualify as the prophesied "latter day apostasy"! Chapter Three - Beheadings & the Bible by Shahram Hadian The Bible says that in the tribulation, multitudes will lose their lives to "beheadings" (Rev. 20:4). Is the recent rise of Muslim-led beheadings a sign of what's ahead? Shahram explains in detail. Chapter Four - America's Founding Fathers by David Barton Hundreds of facts and insights prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that our country was founded on solid Christian principles by born-again believers rooted in the Word. Chapter Five - Confessions of a Female Talk Show Host by Gina Loudon A quickly rising conservative television and radio host, Gina's opened a lot of eyes with her passion for true conservative values. Chapter Six - Israel: Past, Present, & Future by Dave Reagan Israel is God's special place on earth and Dave does an incredible job of laying out, not only the past, but the present and future as outlined in the Bible. Chapter Seven - Drugs, Depression in the Last Days by Paul Van Noy His outline of the eight biblical dispensations, incorporating the tribulation as a separate dispensation, has rattled the establishment's historical understanding at the highest levels. This presentation exposes the latter-day prescription drug industry and its effect on unsuspecting humans!
