The Thomas Jefferson Center for Constitutional Studies Announces
The “Healing of America” Seminar Series
New seminar series focuses on the need to renew the American spirit of our founding fathers and the inalienable rights of mankind
SALT LAKE CITY, UT – December 29, 2008 – The Thomas Jefferson Center for Constitutional Studies announced its seminar series “The Healing of America.” This seminar is designed to help citizens learn the meaning and importance of our Constitution and how the truths contained in the Declaration of Independence are the very foundation of our nation.
The Thomas Jefferson Center bases these seminars on the landmark books: The Making of America, The 5,000 Year Leap, and The Majesty of God’s Law, all written by W. Cleon Skousen. Also included are selected quotes from the book 1776 by David McCullough.
“There is no other program that will give a more in-depth understanding of the founding of this country and our divinely inspired Constitution than the Healing of America,” said Dr. Don Sills, board of directors of the Thomas Jefferson Center for Constitutional Studies.
Dr. Glenn Kimber, President of the Thomas Jefferson Center said, “Our nation’s greatest need is for us to rededicate ourselves to the principles of our Founding Fathers and the priceless freedom they gave us. These seminars and programs will appeal to every American who believes the Creator endowed all men with basic rights and that government derives its power from the people. Each participant will come away with confidence in their under-standing of the Constitution and how they can be a positive influence in their community, state, and nation.”
Because of the current polarized political environment and the desire of concerned citizens to return to the Founders’ original principles, it became apparent to Dr. Kimber and Dr. Sills that these seminars needed to be presented throughout the country. The series includes four seminars. “God’s Hand in the Building of America,” “The Lord’s Charter of Freedom,” “The Unhinging of America,” and “The Healing of America.” Each of these consists of four classes.
The cost of each seminar, including the manual, is $59 per person, or $89 per couple with $30 for each additional family member. The series will begin with “God’s Hand in the Building of America,” on Thursday, January 15, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. It will be held at the Glenn J. Kimber Center for Education located at The Colonial House, 187 West Main Street, Lehi, Utah.
