[434 in Motion] Lost in America (s1e5) - The Soldier with a Secret: How One Woman Fooled the Continental Army

In this episode of Lost in America, we journey back to the Revolutionary War to uncover a chapter of history that was nearly forgotten. As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we’re shining a light on the incredible story of Deborah Sampson—a fierce patriot who refused to let the social constraints of the 1700s keep her from the front lines. By disguising herself as a man named Robert Shurtleff, Sampson successfully served in the Continental Army for two years, enduring battle and injury without ever revealing her true identity. Her story doesn't just challenge our understanding of the battlefield; it redefines what it meant to be a hero in the birth of our nation. From her secret service to her history-making military pension, join us as we rediscover the "lost" details of Deborah Sampson’s life and explore the possibility that she wasn't the only woman hiding in plain sight. It’s time to celebrate the surprising, rich history that makes us who we are today. #America250 #DeborahSampson #RevolutionaryWar #AmericanHeritage #WomenInHistory #Patriotism #MilitaryHistory #UntoldStories #HistoryMatters

[434 in Motion] The Man for the Moment (s1e4) - A Secret to Untouchable Courage: What if Washington Had Been Afraid?

In a world often paralyzed by uncertainty, what can we learn from the man who risked everything on a frozen river on Christmas night? In this episode of A Man for the Moment, Jeff Dixon explores the profound legacy of George Washington, focusing on a trait that defined his leadership: courage. However, Washington’s bravery wasn't just a matter of personal grit; it was a direct reflection of his faith and his reliance on the promise of Joshua 1:9. By examining the pivotal moments of the American Revolution, Dixon poses a haunting question: Would America even exist today if George Washington hadn't been a man of God? As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, this video serves as a powerful reminder that true courage comes from knowing you never step out alone. It is a call to action for every "godly American" to flesh out their faith in the freedom we’ve been given and to step into the greatness God has destined for us "for such a time as this." #GeorgeWashington #America250 #FaithAndFreedom #LeadershipLessons #ChristianLeadership#AmericanHistory #CourageousLiving #GodAndCountry #BiblicalManhood #HistoryMatters

[434 in Motion] Lost in America (s1e4) - Captured in Time: What Revolutionary Veterans Teach Us About Being Seen

Have you ever wondered what the revolutionaries of the late 1700s really looked like? While our history books are filled with stylized oil paintings and sketches, there is a "lost" chapter of American history where the past meets the lens of a camera. In this episode of Lost in America, we uncover the incredible fact that several Revolutionary War veterans survived long enough to witness the birth of photography. Photographed in the 1860s, these men weren't just names in a book; they were soldiers who had spoken with George Washington and witnessed the birth of a nation firsthand. But as we look back at these rare images that bridge the gap between myth and reality, we are reminded of an even deeper truth. Just as these men were "found" and photographed to preserve their legacy, you are seen and known by your Heavenly Father. From the battlefields of 1776 to the moments of your life today, God keeps your "picture on His refrigerator." Join us as we explore the faces of our founders and discover a love that refuses to let you be lost in history. #America250 #RevolutionaryWar #HistoryUncovered #HistoricalPhotography #GeorgeWashington #FaithAndHistory #KnownAndLoved #AmericanHistory #VintagePhotography

[434 in Motion] The Origin of the Dream of Freedom (s1e9) - Why America’s Foundation is Intertwined with Faith

You cannot be an honest historian without acknowledging the spiritual catalyst behind the birth of America. Today, we revisit our series on the founding of the nation to discuss why early settlers viewed this land as a divine calling. We look at the definition of faith in Hebrews 11:1 and how it empowered a group of people to rise to the challenge, explore the unknown, and sacrifice for a freedom we exercise today. #America250 #AmericanHistory #FaithAndFreedom #PromisedLand #JudeoChristian #FoundingFathers #ReligiousLiberty #TheAmericanDream #SpiritualHeritage #HistoryMatters
