For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

We often wonder what ponders the minds of criminals and killers. Well, The Making of a Thug tells it all from the mind of Reginald Chestnut. Reginald grew up in Detroit as a normal child, wanting nothing but friendship and love from his family and friends. When he became the victim of bullying, it changed his whole outlook on life. As he grew older, he made a vow to himself to never be bullied again. This made him want to become someone who others would learn to fear and respect by any means necessary, even if that meant contemplating murder. Reginald became a member of the first known drug cartel to be ran by teenagers, which started in the city of Detroit, MI, Young Boys Incorporated (Y.B.I.). How he got there, how he stayed there, and if he will ever leave, is all told by Reginald Chestnut.

John Piper pleads with fellow pastors to abandon the professionalization of the pastorate and pursue the prophetic call of the Bible for radical ministry.
