New Pages!

We are pleased to bring you the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and The Bill of Rights on our blog.  We hope that you enjoy reading these important documents and that you take the time to read and study them.  If you are interested in learning more about the principles the documents are based on, we recommend you take a look at "The Christian History of the Constitution," John Locke's "Two Treatisies on Government," David Mccullough's "John Adams," Catherine Drinker Bowen's "Miracle at Philadelphia," and "A More Perfect Union." For further primary research into Constitutional history, we also recommend going to The Constitutional Sources Project and checking out their collection of primary source documents.

Happy reading!
