THE BIRTH OF FREEDOM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



DOCUMENTARY

The American founders said that all men are created equal and are endowed with
certain unalienable rights--that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness. They called this a self-evident truth. Eighty-seven years later,
Abraham Lincoln reaffirmed this idea on the Civil War battlefield of Gettysburg.
And in 1963 these same words echoed from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial as
Martin Luther King, Jr. urged America to fulfill the promise of its founding.

But humans are separated by enormous differences in talent and circumstance. Why
would anyone believe that all men are created equal? That all should be free?
That all deserve a voice in choosing their leaders? Why would any nation
consider this a self-evident truth? How is freedom born?



CURRICULUM

Based on the popular documentary The Birth of Freedom, this seven-session DVD
study, designed for use with the Birth of Freedom Participants Guide, shows the
biblical roots of the concept of freedom and debunks the notion that
Christianity held back the development of Western civilization. You will learn
about the historical development of the concept of freedom and see how it grows
out of the Judeo-Christian worldview. Secular elites have long dictated the
terms of Western history. Along the way, they have convinced many that the West
is free and prosperous in spite of our Christian heritage. The Birth of Freedom
video curriculum provides you with an invaluable tool for countering this
revision of history and better grounding your faith in the biblical vision of
freedom.
