Once upon a time, there were giants in the land. We have forgotten about these giants because we have removed the ancient landmarks from our children. Those landmarks were the histories of God's providential mercies, once told to every schoolboy and girl by grateful fathers and mothers. To build a future for our children, we must remember the past, but we must see the past through the lens of biblical Christianity. We must be grateful for the hand of God in our nation and we must teach our children to be grateful (Psalm 78). Toward this end, Vision Forum Ministries is pleased to present Landmarks & Liberty: The 2003 Faith & Freedom Tour, recorded on location in historic Massachusetts. From Plymouth Rock to Boston Harbor to Lexington Green -- through this album you will learn about the signing of the Mayflower Compact, the Witch Trial proceedings at Salem, the Battle of Lexington with its ''shot heard round the world,'' and more. Listen as Doug Phillips, Dr. Paul Jehle, and Richard ''Little Bear'' Wheeler tell the stories of the godly Pilgrims, Puritans, and Patriots of early New England who helped forge our nation even as they kept covenant with God. 8 CDs. Topics and Places Include: 'Mayflower II' Plymouth Rock Pilgrim Mothers Massasoit Church of the Pilgrimage Plimoth Plantation Salem Witch Trials Thanksgiving Lexington Green Copp's Hill Burying Ground Forefathers Monument

God calls men to be men -- to act with manliness. This charge has been all but lost on the men of our day. In a powerful message delivered at the Tenth Annual Christian Boys' and Men's Titanic Society Meeting, Doug Phillips discusses the biblical doctrine of manliness and delivers this clarion call to the men of our day ''[B]e thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man'' (1 Kings 2:2).

Manliness

Are educators or teaching methods neutral? Are academic concepts void of context or presuppositions? Or should the Scriptures direct our educational philosophy? Whether you are 5, 15, 25, or 75 years old, God's Word applies to us all equally. Psalm 1 proclaims that the man who does not counsel with the ungodly, or commune with sinners, or enjoy the company of those who scorn the will and pleasure of God will be blessed! The truth of what we learn is important to God, but the environments in which we are educated, and the hearts of those who teach us, are critical to Him as well. In How Important Are Educational Choices?, join Doug Phillips for a one-hour examination of educational philosophies, their consequences, and what the Bible has to say to us regarding our choices.

What happens to children who die in the womb? How are we to grieve their loss and view their eternal destiny? In this personal message by Doug Phillips, whose wife Beall has lost two children prior to birth, he offers a hopeful theology of miscarriage, emphasizing the hope that miscarriage provides to disciple our families on the priorities, nobilities, and sacrifices of motherhood, as well as the hope that this tragedy offers to model confidence in the sovereignty of God to your children and the world. Doug poses this piercing question to mothers: ''What if miscarriage was God's means of showing mercy and love on a human soul, and if He chose you to be the honored vehicle to usher that child into eternity? Miscarriage is for a moment; a soul is forever.''

Which activity is more feminine: embroidering a pin cushion or digging up ancient artifacts in a foreign land? The answer may surprise you. In this practical message from Anna Sophia and Elizabeth Botkin, femininity is examined in terms of how a young woman can fulfill her unique calling within her family -- not by defining which adventures and activities girls ''can'' or ''can't'' enjoy. The exhortation to young women is clear: Do not pursue a brand of femininity that is so obsessed with its own girliness that you can't get your hands dirty with real service for Christ.
