Welcome to MOA!

Hello!

Thank you for your interest in this MOA Course!

Before I say a bit about the course, I'd like to share with you something Rose Wilder Lane wrote. She is the daughter of famed author Laura Ingalls and Almanzo Wilder. 

From the Mises Institute's website where they share from her book "The Discovery of Freedom: Man's Struggle Against Authority", we read her words:

For sixty known centuries, multitudes of men have lived on this earth. Their situation has been the everlasting human situation. Their desire to live has been as strong as ours. Their energy has always been enough to make this earth at least habitable for human beings. Their intelligence has been great.

Yet for six thousand years, most men have been hungry. Famines have always killed multitudes, and still do over most of this earth. Ninety-five years ago, the Irish were starving to death; no one was surprised. Europeans had never expected to get from this earth enough food to keep them all alive.

Why did men die of hunger, for six thousand years?

Why did they walk, and carry goods and other men on their backs, for six thousand years, and suddenly, in one century, only on a sixth of this earth's surface, they make steamships, railroads, motors, airplanes, and now are flying around the earth in its utmost heights of air?

Why did families live six thousand years in floorless hovels, without windows or chimneys, then, in eighty years and only in these United States, they are taking floors, chimneys, glass windows for granted, and regarding electric lights, porcelain toilets, and window screens as minimum necessities?

Why did workers walk barefoot, in rags, with lousy hair and unwashed teeth, and workingmen wear no pants, for six thousand years, and here--in less than a century--silk stockings, lip sticks, permanent waves, sweaters, overcoats, shaving cream, safety razors. It's incredible.

For thousands of years, human beings use their energies in unsuccessful efforts to get wretched shelter and meager food. Then on one small part of the earth, a few men use their energies so effectively that three generations create a completely new world.

What explains this?

This is where our MOA class begins! We discuss this marvelous and worthwhile question and answer it with its glorious and Providential truth, after which we proceed to teach the How, What, Who, Where and Why of it all, learning what happened after that "5,000 Year Leap" and how we ended up with the nation as it is today, all while  performing a scrutinizing "dissection" of the U.S. Constitution.

This class is amazing and profound! It draws the student to the foundation of America and inculcates a deep understanding of our republic, our Founders, and our future, while including current events and even seeing when we have strayed from what the Founders bequeathed us and when we have held faithfully to it.

I am passionate about leading this course for high school-aged youth (sometimes even adults/parents join in!) who are the rising generation.  

I believe in the Founding Fathers and their original intent, and I believe in the God-inspired Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights - "The Supreme Law of the Land."  I believe too few of us today really know about our Founders, their intent, and this Supreme Law, as our public schools and University systems continue to implement globalist agendas to "dumb us down," infuse us with Socialism, deconstruct and then rewrite History, prepare us for Tyranny, and erase elements of our national past from the minds of their students (and now the public square as well!) which are crucial to the survival of our nation and our freedoms.

There are many who are standing and fighting against such these erroneous and deconstructed efforts, and are doing what they can to help others learn about our sovereign Republic and our inalienable right to Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness (aka: Private Property Rights.) We yet need many more! I feel blessed to do my little part in my little corner of the world, and feel a passion to help arm today's youth with truth in knowledge - PRIOR to their College years - so that when they encounter these false philosophies of man regarding our nation, our Founders, and the Supreme Law of the Land they will be able to counter it with truth and not be led astray if they so choose to learn; and when they are called upon to help save our Republic and Supreme Law, it is my hope, they will be well-prepared to do so.
