Profiles Of Valor - 4 Vol Set

Step into the earliest days of America’s fight for freedom, experience the key turning points, see the struggle unfold, and celebrate the eventual founding of the nation. From the chaos of battlefields to secret midnight rides, you’ll meet forty real heroes (ten per volume), each demonstrating a powerful virtue like humility, justice, and determination. These true stories reveal the Christian faith and grit that built a nation. This four-book series will help you fall in love with American history, reconnect with its godly founding values, and discover a pathway for its future.

While the stories in each volume are ordered chronologically, each chapter can stand alone if desired. Each biographical sketch will take approximately 30 minutes to read aloud. Each chapter is introduced with a definition of the virtue demonstrated and a relevant Bible memory verse. At the close of each story, comprehension questions help check for understanding while application questions foster discussion to bring the virtues into modern life. Meaningful quotes from statesmen and important personalities are also included throughout the volumes.
