God in the Trenches: A History of How God Defends Freedom When America Is at War
Autor Larkin Spiveyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 mai 2010 – vârsta ani
Is
God
on
America's
side?
Is
it
possible
a
providential
hand
intervened
at
critical
junctures
during
America's
wars?
Is
freedom
important
to
the
Almighty?
Larkin
Spivey,
a
decorated
Marine
Corps
officer
and
respected
military
professor,
believes
so.
InGod in the Trenches,Spivey shows that when the nation's survival seemed uncertain, even doubtful, fate seemed to turn America's way, giving way to mysterious—if not miraculous—events. These events altered the course of history, leading to victory for the American military and enduring freedom for America's citizens.
Whether these events were miracles , or just plain mysteries, Spivey leaves no doubt that the history of the United States was swayed many times by a hidden hand. Will the hand of providence help America once again?
