… so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God…
Psalm 78:7 ESV
Dear Friend,
As the Gospel advanced through history, God’s Word turned the world upside down, displacing darkness with the light of prosperity, peace, and liberty. The transformation began “…when Christianity—the basis of the good, permanent and progressive in modern civilization—first appeared in the world.”1 When the Word of God was applied to civil government, America’s Tree of Liberty sprang forth, bearing the fruit of a self-governing union, giving the individual an independent value, and releasing a new spirit that built America.
Where are we today?
Sadly, Americans now live in a time when God is banished from the culture, leaving our families and communities prey to destructive, even diabolical ideologies. A recent Pew Research Center report found that 80% of US adults say the role of religion is losing influence in American life, and 49% of those surveyed said it was a bad thing.2 The result of this loss? It has hidden from our children their heritage of Christian history and God’s Gospel purpose for America. They are no longer taught their Biblical birthright of Christian self-government. I believe this is the greatest threat of our age. Why? Because our children are the future, and they have before them a desperate fate without God. As our children believe, so goes the nation.
Can we restore Biblical liberty in America?
At the Foundation for American Christian Education (FACE), we proclaim HOPE because the scripture boldly encourages us to boast in our hope of Christ! God has never abandoned or forsaken His own. His promises are real and certain. To claim those promises, we must take back the responsibility to teach our children to love and honor God through every aspect of life, including their education. We must teach them a sound and true curriculum, thus equipping them for service. The scripture is very clear on this:
He … appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children, that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn,
… so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God and keep his commandments.” Psalm 78:5-7 ESV
How FACE is Leading the Way
For sixty years, FACE has continued to publish and teach America’s Christian history and the Principle Approach®, education that places God’s Word at the heart of every subject.
Our Leading Schools program serves 41 schools in 23 states and our Teacher Training program will have prepared over 500 teachers and parents by summer 2024. Our programs also include study groups where parents, pastors, and leaders learn their God-given heritage of liberty to reclaim it. We publish and teach Principle Approach curriculum that lays the Bible at the heart of every subject, making learning nourishing and wholesome.
We Can Nourish the Tree of Liberty Together
Today, we live in hope—hope for America that educating in Biblical principles will restore the foundations of liberty. Our vision is to raise an army of bold men and women who will stand for Truth, enlighten the nation, educate the next generation, and keep America free.
Will you stand with us to build the family, the church, and the nation in hope by making a gift to FACE?
Your support will enable the founding of new schools nationwide to serve families and equip teachers who faithfully form Christ in children. A new generation of leaders will explode on the forefront, ready to “restore what the locusts have eaten.” We will experience a catalyst of change for liberty and the Gospel as we “hold firmly to our confidence and the hope of which we boast.”
Thank you for your gift and partnership in this mission. Rosalie Slater, our co-founder and mentor, reminded us:
“A nation that is humble enough to begin with its children
may once again lead the nations to Christ.”

P.S. Your financial gift is an investment in the future of our children. Now, we have an unprecedented opportunity and a responsibility to restore our Biblical roots. As a thank you for your gift of $50 or more, we would like to send our booklet, “Every Child a Promise—How to Take Back Your Child’s Education to Give Them a Future and a Hope with Principle Approach Education.”
P.S. Education alone will determine the quality of American culture, the influence of the church, the strength of our families, the health of our economy, and the type and scope of our government. Children must not be taught evil and subservience to tyranny but taught their birthright of Biblical liberty, bringing hope for their lives and future. Join our Society of Restorers today and help secure liberty and Christian self-government for future generations. See the enclosed reply card.
