Visions of America, Visions of the Church

As a "war of civilizations" threatens Humanity, read The General Counsel Series to discover the civilization that is good, that is very good-the Promised Land. In Visions of America (Vol. 5 of the General Counsel Series), discover America as first seen in the hearts of Abraham, Moses and Jesus, an ideal America where people: seek a Promised Land where all people will be blessed challenge Pharaohs who refuse to let people be free help others by being Good Samaritans Admire George Washington for never giving in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Honor Abraham Lincoln for creating an America where liberty and union are one and inseparable, now and forever. In these troubled times, draw upon the strength and courage of all those Americans who found the faith to keep seeking New Frontiers even when it meant dying to help others. In Visions of the Church, discover ways that the troubled-yet triumphant-flight of Apollo 13 illustrates the experiences of the Church during the past 2000 years. St. Augustine charts the way to the City of God through God's amazing grace. After the Church's Service Module blows up, St. Francis of Assisi lives humbly in the Church's fragile Lunar Module. St. Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, John Wesley, and Charles Wesley show how to keep their "spaceship," the Church, on course towards home. Billy Graham, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Mother Teresa restore the power of faith, hope and love to the Church's Command Module just in time for the Church to face the fiery trials of the Third Millennium."
