George Washington—a Film in the Foundation Series
DON’T MISS THE FILM ON THE LIFE AND FAITH OF GEORGE WASHINGTON
At Providence Forum, we are committed to educating Americans on America’s Judeo-Christian roots, which is the foundation of our liberty. Dr. Jerry Newcombe, executive director, has been working on a series of many films in the Foundation of American Liberty, which are now a part of the ministry of Providence Forum.
Here are comments on this film, “George Washington”:
- “As someone who grew up under complete tyranny in Romania and came to America with gratitude to God for the liberty here, it was wonderful to see how the Lord raised up the father of this country to help us become free. This powerful film is a reminder of how God and the Christian faith played a key role in the founding of this great nation. But many Americans take our liberties for granted—they need to see this film and movies like it to appreciate the sacrifices in the creation of America. My heart aches when I see misguided young people tear down statues of George Washington—he was a great man. People need to see the truth about him, and this film presents the truth. I highly recommend it. This powerful film is a reminder of how God and the Christian faith played a key role in the founding of this great nation – America!” –Virginia Prodan, International Human Rights Attorney, author of Saving My Assassin
- “I enjoyed the George Washington documentary, and learned a lot. I even re-watched and shared it with my friend who also really liked it!” – Michael Portillo, 18 year old Christian High school student
- “I loved, loved the Washington Video. I pray you do one for every Founding Father. I hope to find a good way to distribute to our Salt & Light Ministries. Well done good and faithful servant.” – Dran Reese, Founder/President, Salt & Light Council, who adds to those who have not seen the film yet: “You will learn details about his inspiring life that will reignite your love for America.”
- “This new George Washington documentary proves beyond question that the Father of our nation served and knew well his Heavenly Father. Washington argued often that without God’s hand and many interventions, America could not have come into being. The documentary also directly takes on the Woke, politically-correct crowd that would erase Washington’s name and topple his many statues because he owned slaves. As far back as 1774, Washington was maneuvering to end the slave trade and became the only American president to free his slaves on his own initiative. This vastly-entertaining 59-minute video covers every exciting facet of Washington’s life and shows how his Christian faith burned bright in them all. It seals the deal that America is indeed a God-blessed nation and God wrapped His divine hand around its first leader time and time again.” -Paul Strand, former CBN News Senior Washington Correspondent

The Opening of the George Washington Special (same as the trailer)
The Childhood and Education of George Washington
George Washington was indispensable to the creation of our nation. Although he accomplished much in his lifetime, his formal education was rather limited because it was abruptly cut short. But, Washington was able to be well educated in the Holy Scriptures and in Biblical principles for life.
The Home Life of George Washington
In our time, Washington has gone from being a hero to being a villain—at least in the minds of many. Why the change? Washington was a slave-owner, at a time when much of the world practiced slavery. What do we know about Washington’s home life, including his marriage and the issue of slavery?
George Washington – The Churchman
All his life, George Washington was a regular church-goer. Even when it was difficult to attend, he found a way. He also held lay leadership in some churches. In this short Providence Forum video, we explore the issue of Washington and his relationship to the church.

George Washington – Commander-in-Chief
In search of independence, the American Colonists went up against the most powerful army and navy in the world with only a group of ragtag farmers and merchants. In this short video, Dr. Jerry Newcombe discusses how Washington proved indispensable as the military leader, who, with God’s help, made independence become a reality.
George Washington-Liberating Boston
In his Providence Today commentary, Dr. Jerry Newcombe explains how George Washington managed to liberate Boston from the British military, essentially without firing a shot.
George Washington and Valley Forge
We are free in modern America because of the sacrifices of those who went before us, such as the sacrifice our troops endured at Valley Forge. In this short video with Dr. Jerry Newcombe, we see how God used George Washington and his troops to help forge a great nation.
George Washington – Victory at Yorktown
By God’s grace, George Washington was able to successfully lead a ragtag group of farmers and merchants to victory over the strongest army and navy in the world at that time. Dr. Jerry Newcombe dives into Washington’s victory at Yorktown in his commentary.
How can America thrive and live up to its God-given potential? George Washington, the father of our country, gave some timeless advice.
Too often yesterday’s heroes are today’s villains. Statues of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and even Abraham Lincoln have been torn down or defaced in our day. But there is a reason previous generations of Americans have venerated the memory of our nation’s founding fathers, such as the father of our country. Dr. Jerry Newcombe presents this short video on Washington and his legacy, including a peaceful transition from one president to the next.
