Course Description: One of the greatest American heroes of all time is George Washington. When you read of his character and accomplishments, one has to ask, what was the secret to this great and good man’s success? Those that knew Washington testify as to the genuineness of his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Mason L. Weems, a contemporary of Washington and his biographer, had this to say about his character and faith:

When the children of the years to come, hearing his great name re-echoed from every lip, shall say to their fathers, “what was it that raised Washington to such heights of glory?” Let them be told that it was great talents constantly guided and guarded by religion… the noblest, the most efficient element of his character was that he was a humble, earnest Christian.
