The Legacy Of

Marshall Foster

In 1976, Dr. Marshall Foster and his wife, Patricia, founded the World History Institute, a nonprofit educational foundation, to teach the biblical and historical foundations of liberty.

The World History Institute (formerly the Mayflower Institute) has become a major force in the movement to restore our nation to its Judeo-Christian heritage. The Institute has reached millions with America’s “untold heritage.”

HEROES OF

Liberty

There is only one true trail of freedom clearly discernible in history. It does not run through the lineage of conquerors such as Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Napoleon or Mao-Tse Tung. Such conquerors have left in their wake, countless broken lives, and a legacy of slavery and tyranny. In contrast, these true liberators have been humble, yet powerful servants of Almighty God. Theirs is a legacy of people and nations blessed by liberty, equality, prosperity and the rule of law. Matthew Henry, the venerable Bible commentator, wrote, “The rulers of the world conquered nations and made them miserable. The apostles conquered them for Christ and made them happy.”

The true freedom trail was carved by leaders inspired by Jesus Christ, filled with His compassion, and carried out by His followers throughout the Roman Empire. Without legions of brutal soldiers, this devout army of people have made the biggest difference. Dig into the untold stories of these unexpected heroes

The Institute embraces the providential view of history, which observes history as a purposeful saga under the direction of a loving Creator. This historical perspective has been the dominant view of Western Civilization from the time of Augustine in the 4th century A.D. to the 20th century.
