Answers to Prayer and Fasting, part 2

About this episode

Discover the untold power of prayer and fasting as David Barton takes us through the corridors of American history, where these spiritual disciplines have left an indelible mark on the nation's direction. Step into the past where President Abraham Lincoln's call for a National Day of Fasting and Prayer changed the tide of the Civil War, and where the devout pilgrims, referred to as 'people of the book', laid down the foundations of Thanksgiving. These stories aren't just about faith; they're about the key moments when seeking divine guidance proved to be a turning point in history.

We then journey back to the roots of the American Revolution and the profound Christian faith that guided our founding fathers. Amidst the backdrop of battlefields and the formation of a new nation, the reliance on divine wisdom is both inspiring and thought-provoking. With artifacts like Buzz Aldrin's Communion chalice and space-traveled Bibles, featured in our DFW museums, we invite you on a reflective voyage to grasp the miraculous feats achieved through faith. As you listen, consider how these historical insights might influence your appreciation of prayer and fasting in our lives today.
