Review It - American Destiny
American Destiny, Inc. came into existence in 1999 for this reason: to unite American's to remember the guiding hand of God in our nations founding, restore our hearts and hope for America's destiny, and rebuild her foundations by equipping the next generation.
It is NOT our intent to make "gods" of our founding fathers, or create alignment with a political party, or to become a "moral bully." It is our intent to acknowledge the Sovereignty of our Creator over all men, that our rights come from him, and we are therefore accountable to him as individuals and nations.
"To know America's past is to Know America's destiny".
