The Liberty Letters series explores the lives of teens who courageously lived out their faith and commitment to God in challenging times. Using letters between good friends to tell the story, the series reveals the power of friendship, courage, ingenuity, and faith to make a difference in the key events of U.S. history.
Liberty Letters is a tribute to America’s foundation of faith and freedom. A historic photo section gives a snapshot of life during the era of each story. And now, a new generation can experience history as they discover how God works through ordinary people in extraordinary times.
