The history of the United States is, to a large extent, a history of armed conflict. The nation was first forged in war, a tough fight for independence against one of the world’s largest empires, and that fight would resume less than a generation later with the War of 1812. Then there were constant low-level conflicts with Native Americans as the nation expanded westwards, and occasionally the country engaged in full-scale war against the Sioux, Comanche, and Apache. The country also fought the Mexican-American War, starting in 1846, and the bloody Civil War starting in 1861.

Calloway explores the unique and vibrant new cultures that Indians and Europeans forged together in early America.

Ministers of the gospel are now competing for largest church auditorium, largest church network, and even largest church attendance. Unfortunately, the outbreaks of these incidences are not new to the body of Christ.
