Acclaim for the Authors' Work "Supreme thanks to the Foundation for Thought and Ethics for Never Before in History. Your publication merits the highest marks for academic integrity and intellectual honesty. Amos and Gardiner's exemplary effort provides a Christian perspective full of supporting fact and documentation, delivered with lively prose and pace. The final chapter soundly refutes the current judicial interpretation of the First Amendment, which capriciously denies the original intention of the framers of our Constitution. Amos and Gardiner are to be commended for presenting evidence of a dynamic and fruitful relationship between America's churches and their governing republic. We appreciate your work towards restoring our great nation to its former glory." — David Barton President, WallBuilders “Never Before is ... of the highest scholarly quality and should be required reading for those who teach and those who take American History in all our schools.” — Prof. Harold J. Berman Harvard Law School (emeritus) “As historians Gary Amos and Richard Gardiner show in their book Never Before in History, what's especially American, and valuable, is our legacy of religious freedom... Never Before in History explains that our Constitution, our Bill of Rights, and our entire system of government work because their framers 'drew their ideas about religious liberty and separation of church and state from Christian sources.” — Chuck Colson “This book is a welcome ally in the battle to reclaim the noble heritage that our Founders have bequeathed to us. That heritage has been covered over, denied, and denounced for too long. Never Before in History shows, without a doubt, that the authentic legacy of the Founding deserves our full and unhesitating loyalty.” — Thomas G. West Author, Vindicating the Founders “Your project is important and should be a good corrective to the secularized history texts which omit the contribution of Christianity to American independence and culture.” — Dr. Peter J. Stanlis Former Member of the Board, National Council for the Humanities Author, Edmund Burke and the Natural Law “I read between one and two hundred books a year. It is seldom that I come across a book so informative and wise ... in fact, (the authors) challenge and explode a paradigm that has been dominant for far too long ... I trust you realize what a valuable property-literally a treasure-(this) book is, and I hope you have the vision to give this vitally important work to the nation.” — Dr. Ronald Nash Former Prof., Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando
