Celebrate Your Heritage in Philadelphia!

hile brilliant minds debated in grand halls and soldiers fought on battlefields, thousands of ordinary Americans—women, craftsmen, clergy, and even children—quietly shaped the War for Independence through daily faithfulness. They sewed uniforms, cast musket balls, taught virtue at home, prayed, served, and sacrificed in countless unseen ways.

As John Adams later wrote, “The true Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people.”

In the words of historian David McCullough:

“The war was a longer, far more arduous, and more painful struggle than later generations would understand or sufficiently appreciate. By the time it ended, it had taken the lives of an estimated 25,000 Americans. . . . The year 1776, celebrated as the birth year of the nation and for the signing of the Declaration of Independence, was for those who carried the fight for independence forward a year of all-too-few victories, of sustained suffering, disease, hunger, desertion, cowardice, disillusionment, defeat, terrible discouragement, and fear, as they would never forget, but also of phenomenal courage and bedrock devotion to country, and that, too, they would never forget. The outcome seemed little short of a miracle.”

At the state-of-the-art Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia, Dr. Bill Potter will guide you in observing the ways that God uses everyday faithfulness to accomplish extraordinary ends and sow generational blessings.
