While most Americans know the story of how the United States won its independence, many are unaware of George Washingtonβs passionate assertion that God was intrinsically involved in the nationβs founding.

Every step by which they have advanced to the character of an independent nation seems to have been distinguished by some token of providential agency.β β George Washington
