MAITLAND, FL— Within the pages of Barbara
Schenkel’s new book, I Pledge Allegiance To God, ($12.99,
paperback, 9781498448376) readers will view the original
writings of the Founders of the United States, that reveal their personal
conversations with God and prayers to God. The drama of each person's
circumstance is experienced as historical facts and their intimate
conversations with God in seeking guidance are shared. These writings show that
the Founders believed true liberty and freedom come from God and each was
willing to sacrifice all for that cause. This book includes scripture
verses at the beginning of the life story of each Founder. Readers will share
in the love of freedom and future dreams of such persons as George and Martha
Washington, John and Abigail Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Noah
Webster and many others – all written in present tense about their love for
liberty and zeal to obtain it.
“In the past eighty years, most books on the lives of the Founders, have deleted all references to God and the Founder's prayers from their pages,” states the author. “This book carefully researched from original records, shows evidence that the Founders knew their vision was greater than their abilities, and depended on God for answers on how to establish a new nation founded on religious freedom.”
Barbara Schenkel has a Master of Divinity degree from Iliff School of Theology in addition to a B.S. in Nursing from the University of New Mexico and a Master of Social Work degree from Arizona State University. She has ministered in the United Methodist Church, worked in nursing and social work, and has been a prayer leader in her church for the past ten years.
