“American Christian Rulers: Religion and Men of Government”

This classic exposé of nearly 200 great American statesmen testifies to the genuine faith of our nation’s fledgling days: that Christianity was the foundation of our public service, that an overwhelmingly Christian populace exercised uncontestable political pressure over the civic character of the country, and that America ascended to greatness because of—and not despite—her Christian foundation.

“Liberating Planet Earth: An Introduction to Biblical Blueprints”

Does the Bible have answers for the complex challenges of Marxism, Communism, Liberation Theology, and New Age Humanism? Yes. Absolutely.

“God and Government” by Gary Demar

The Bible is not a collection of disconnected moralisms for private application, but rather a comprehensive guide for all of life, a blueprint for the private and public conduct of all individuals and nations. +Includes FREE copy of “Liberating Planet Earth: An Introduction to Biblical Blueprints” by Gary North

“Would Jesus Vote for Trump?” by Brandon Vallorani & Doug Giles

Would Jesus ever choose someone, with a less than stellar past, to be a leader? Would Jesus be cool with how Trump blasts CNN, The Left, and his feckless ‘compadres’ on The Right? What about Health Care? Would the Great Physician give Trump’s opposition to ObamaCare the ‘two thumbs up?’ Find out in this BEST-SELLER! by Brandon Vallorani & Doug Giles

Socialism Sucks T-Shirt

If Democrats get their way and win in 2020, say hello to more taxes, universal health care, a shrinking GDP, and a rising unemployment rate. This is why it is imperative that President Trump is re-elected. There are no two ways around it. Socialism has failed in every nation because Democrats don’t understand that government isn’t meant to coddle its citizens from cradle to grave....

Jesus Is My Savior. Trump Is My President.

There are two things liberals hate more than anything in this world: Jesus and President Trump. One t-shirt will ruin a lefty’s day faster than they can say “Russia!” Thank God for Trump because if Hillary Clinton won in 2016, America would be at the edge of falling over a cliff. Trump ran a multi-billion...

No collusion with Russia. Lowest unemployment rate in decades. Bringing Kim Jong-un to his knees. Yeah, President Trump is doing a good job. He isn’t just getting things done – he’s EXCELLING.

MAGA Bear Bumper Sticker (Parody)

Pushing for open borders and the “Russia collusion” narrative weren’t enough for Democrats. They want more. Dems won’t stop attacking America regardless of whether Donald Trump is in office. Why? Because they do not love their country. It’s that simple. If Bernie Sanders becomes president – if ANY Democrat becomes president – America will make...

PI$$ING TRUMP BADBOY CLEAR STICKER

The mid-terms are over and the highly anticipated "blue wave" was more like a blue stain on the bottom of President Trump's penny loafers. Republicans gained even more seats in the Senate. Those Senators who voted against Kavanaugh were booted out of office. Sure, we lost some seats in the house. But this is the way every mid-term goes after a Presidential election. President Trump will likely nominate another conservative Supreme Court Justice before his first term is over. The original Trump Badboy vs. Liberals sticker has been our most popular sticker ever sold. Now, for a limited time, we are offering a second sticker absolutely free! Keep a back-up in your glove box in the event that a deranged snowflake scrapes your original off. Or give your second copy to a fellow-conservative. Whatever you decide, take advantage of this deal before it expires! 6" x 4.328" clear die cut sticker *** MADE IN THE USA |
