How has religion - in all its varieties - contributed to the flavor of life in the United States?
America’s first settlements, founding documents, and most important traditions are replete with religious sentiment. Today, religion continues to play an important role in the lives of American people - nearly 80 percent are religiously affiliated - and institutions.
These audio lectures bring you face to face with the fascinating people, movements, groups, beliefs, and practices that have made the US one of the most religiously diverse nations in the history of the world.
Your guide is Professor Peter A. Huff, an expert on religious pluralism in the US and the co-editor of the volume Knowledge and Belief in America. You will find his discussion balanced and meticulously researched.
Across more than 500 years of innovation and change, you will trace the development of religious life and thought in America. Prof. Huff invites you to investigate indigenous traditions before turning to the transplantation of religions (like Catholicism) from other continents and the growth of new religious movements (like Shakerism) in the young country.
As you absorb the diversity of religious experience in the US, you will gain not only a deeper understanding of the hows and whys, but also an impressionistic snapshot of the cultural bounty we enjoy as a result of living at the crossroads of so many traditions. Feast at the banquet of American beliefs today.

The Gospel of Luke and Acts of the Apostles are two parts of a single triumphant work. Each an epic work in its own right, together they proclaim the gospel message and narrate the gripping story of the Church’s early days. Using the metaphor of a double helix, Fr. William Burton asks you to imagine Luke’s gospel and Acts as a single account with many parallels or rungs connecting the two sides of the twisted ladder.

In this electrifying social and intellectual history, Paula Fredriksen answers the question of how Jewish missionaries ended up inaugurating a movement that would grow into the gentile church by reconstructing the life of the earliest Jerusalem community. As her account arcs from this group’s hopeful celebration of Passover with Jesus, through their bitter controversies that fragmented the movement’s midcentury missions, to the city’s fiery end in the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, she brings this vibrant apostolic community to life.

Walk through the Bible's earliest source for the life of Jesus with scholar Amy-Jill Levine as she examines John the Baptizer, the Little Apocalypse, the Transfiguration, and several of Jesus's most notable stories and parables. The Good News of the gospel message comes alive in this book as listeners see Jesus as divine and human, powerful and weak, approachable yet mysterious. The book features an in-depth study of select passages and illuminates the Gospel in its historical context and as a source for the other gospels.

How can we persevere through persecution? First-century Christians wrestled with this question. They were often harassed, slandered, beaten, and ostracized for their faith. As they endured these difficult circumstances, we can imagine their joy upon receiving two encouraging letters from the Apostle Peter. No stranger to suffering, Peter likely penned these letters while in a Roman prison just before his martyrdom. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul takes us through Peter’s epistles line by line.

Outstanding course
I highly recommend this lecture series to anyone interested in truly understanding the religious character of America history and seeks to better understand America's current religious movements. Huff presents a highly organized well delivered series with energy and insight. Another outstanding title from Learn25.

America's Religious History Revealed
I always wondered If America is a religious country. Now, I know the answer.
This is not just an audio course; it is a comprehensive guide to the entire American religious history, even before America became America.
After finishing listening to this course, I called them great lectures discussing all the varieties of religions and how they affected America. It is a treasure for people who are interested in both history and religion as a subject; not only as a spiritual experience.
Professor Peter is literally telling stories. I know that most audio courses are described as great stories but this one is different. Peter is a great storyteller and knows how to make the whole story interesting until the chapter is over. His performance is outstanding. Also, the list of books recommended throughout the course is amazing.
After listening to this course, you will understand that religion has been playing an essential role in the development of America. Peter showed me how inseparable religion and America are throughout history until now. I also found out much information on topics and religions I have never heard of before in my life.
Thanks, Peter! I will read the list of books and come back if you have made another masterpiece.
