The United States is the wealthiest, most powerful nation that has ever existed—and its rise was no accident. It was formed out of hundreds of specific events that started over 3,000 years before the adoption of the U.S. Constitution. But today, is the strength of this nation eroding? Did the Bible see it coming? Will America be history’s final empire?
Join Shawn Boonstra in exploring the annals of history to discover the tapestry of events woven together to construct a brand-new empire. Uncover the true reason Columbus set sail into uncharted waters, how the fall of Constantinople set the stage for the founding of the United States hundreds of years before its inception, and see the Bible’s specific warnings for the state of this nation today. You’ll see the evidence that America is a country founded on the principle of religious liberty—and learn what the nation needs to do to maintain its freedoms today.
This four-part seminar series covers Bible prophecy, current world events, and the end times. Sponsored by the Voice of Prophecy, each session features a video experience from Shawn Boonstra, followed by group discussion lead by a local moderator. You’ll see the incredible signs from today’s news pointing to a coming cataclysmic event—and learn what you can do to prepare you and your family for the coming crisis.

Four POWERFUL SESSIONS
Session 1 (Thursday SEPT. 28, 2023 @ 7:00pm – 8:00pm)
Republic Rising
History tells us that when Christopher Columbus set sail, he already knew the World was not flat. So, what was he really doing on his quest? We’ll look at the evidence that points to Columbus true goals, his deep convictions, and a journey that he believed was driven by the Hand of God.
Session 2 (Friday Sept. 29, 2023 @ 7:00pm – 8:00pm)
Christianity Corrupted
The Christian religion, a faith founded in humility, quickly became a powerful and tyrannical institution that imposed its will throughout Europe for hundreds of years. Then through a string of historical events, a new movement began—a search for a more biblical Christianity. Could it all be a coincidence or was it part of a bigger plan?
Session 3 (Saturday Sept. 30, 2023 @ 7:00pm – 8:00pm)
The Earth Opens Up
While Western Europe was in spiritual turmoil, in a far-off land, and against all odds, a biblical model for a manmade government was developing. But with no real power, how could a new republic in direct defiance of the Church of Europe survive? See for yourself the undeniable accounts of divine intervention surrounding the birth of America.
Session 4 (Sunday Oct. 1, 2023 @ 7:00pm – 8:00pm)
America’s Last Stand
The prophecies found in Daniel and Revelation have predicted empires throughout history. But has the Bible also predicted the birth of America? Do biblical prophecies have answers for what is happening in our world today? Examine the evidence and decide for yourself.
