A Nation Adrift
2004 93 minutes
This is the true story of how God's sovereign hand guided the founders of America. It takes you on a journey... from Christopher Columbus to Jamestown... from Valley Forge to the Constitutional Convention... from the Civil War to the Stock Market Crash... from FDR to the present. The result of the journey will give us a better understanding of where America is today, how she arrived here, and where she must turn at this critical hour. For as Thomas Jefferson once asked, "Can the liberties of a nation be secure, when we have removed the conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?"
Visually rich and fast-paced, A Nation Adrift provides a fascinating historical survey of the spiritual, social and technological changes that have molded America. You will be amazed by little-known facts about the Founding Fathers, the wars, the Industrial Revolution, the Wright brothers first flights, Henry Ford's first assembly line, the Great Depression, the atomic bombing of Japan, and much, much more! Totally illustrated. No "talking heads."
This eye-opening 90-minute documentary easily breaks up into 6 segments: "Conceived in Liberty" (1607-1763), "Harvest of Freedom" (1764-1788), "A Perfect Union" (1789-1859), "A House Divided" (1860-1877), "Saving the Dream" (1915-1945), and "A Work in Progress" (1946-Present). Other material includes the founding of the ACLU and Planned Parenthood; and current events dealing with abortion, the homosexual revolution, secular humanism, and the Clinton administration.

We showed this movie at our Bible study and all were impressed with the quality and message of this documentary. It is wonderful to see a movie with the truth as a foundation. This is a good witness tool to lost people as it presents facts in an unbiased manner. Every American needs to see how an ungodly few were able to usurp our cultural morals and our nation's foundational freedoms. This movie also exposes the insidious nature of two major organizations in America: Planned Parenthood and the ACLU. The goals and philosophies of their founders are shocking.

This is an excellent DVD which I found to be very informative and well presented. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in American history. It was very interesting to learn about the founders and beginnings of many of the organizations currently active in our country and shaping its modern policies

May God forgive us for trampling the freedoms and privileges that were bought with such a price!

This is a fast paced informative documentary covering the steps that have lead from a country founded on Christian principles and truths to where it is today.
Every church and youth organization should listen to this tale of truth, about the systematic removal of the bible precipes and the worship and recognition of the our Christian God who was believed and known to 97%(population at the time of the revolution and constitution of this country) to be our God of this country. Separation of church and state is addressed for the lie that it is.

Excellent information - people really NEED to know this stuff!! However: a bit of a snoozer -- would have helped to have a live body presenting, at least some of the time. 90 minutes of documentary information, good format, but needs better sound and/or voice - we found ourselves dozing!
