Sacred Liberty: America’s Long, Bloody, and Ongoing Struggle for Religious Freedom Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

Sacred Liberty gives a dramatic, sweeping survey of how America built a unique style of religious freedom, possibly the nation’s “very best invention.” Steven Waldman, the bestselling author of Founding Faith, shows how early suggestions about spiritual liberty had been tested and refined amidst the brutal persecution of Catholics, Baptists, Mormons, Quakers, African slaves, Indigenous Us citizens, Muslims, Jews and Jehovah’s Witnesses. American market leaders drove religious independence forward–figures like Wayne about Sacred Liberty: America’s Long, Bloody, and Ongoing Struggle for Spiritual Independence Madison, George Washington, the Globe War II presidents (Roosevelt, Truman, and Eisenhower) and even George W. Bush. But the biggest heroes had been the regular Americans – people like Mary Dyer, Marie Barnett and W.D. Mohammed — who risked their lives or reputations by challenging to apply their faiths freely.

Just like the documentary Eyes on the Prize captured the rich drama from the civil rights motion, Sacred Liberty brings alive the remarkable story of how America became one of the few nations in world background that has religious freedom, variety and high levels of piety at the same time. Finally, Sacred Liberty provides a roadmap for how, when confronted with modern dangers to spiritual freedom, this great accomplishment can be conserved.
