George Washington's Sacred Fire by Peter A Lillback
Published by Providence Forum Press
Dr. Peter Lillback's exhaustive fifteen years of research set's George Washington's Sacred Fire apart from all previous works Washington's faith. It presents a man driven by the highest of ideals using Washington's own writings, journals, letters, manuscripts, and those of his closest family and confidants to reveal the truth of this awe-inspiring role model for all generations. Dr. Lillback convincingly shows how when faced with unprecedented challenges and circumstances, Washington ultimately drew upon his persistent qualities of character - honesty, justice, equity, perseverence, piety, forgiveness, humility, and servant leadership, to become one of the most revered figures in world history. George Washington set the cornerstone for what would become one of the most prosperous, free nations in the history of civilization.

"DrLillback buries the myth that Washington was an unbeliever, at most a 'deist', under an avalanche of facts." - Robert P. George, Princeton University, author Clash of Orthodoxies "Secular historians ignore George Washington's ward Nelly Custis, who wrote that doubting his Christian faith was as absurd as doubting his patriotism. But they cannot ignore this mountain of evidence suggesting Washington's religion was not deism, but just the sort of low-church Anglicanism one would expect in an eighteenth century Virginia gentleman. His 'sacred fire' lit America's path toward civil and religious liberty." - Walter A. McDougall, Pulitzer Prize-winning author"
