A Gift That Keeps on Giving
When my husband and I first encountered Rushdoony’s Institutes of Biblical Law, we felt that a bright light had entered our lives and a great burden had been removed. Since then, we have applied the concept that our Christian faith is a faith that governs every aspect of our lives, and we have been able to embrace Jesus’s words more fully: Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all things will be added unto you (Matt. 6:33).

One hundred years ago today, God sent me a gift that I didn’t discover until sixty-nine years later. And, since then, I’ve been blessed in a multitude of ways because of this gift. One hundred years ago, R.J. Rushdoony was born to immigrants who, by God’s grace, survived the massacres in Armenia. Rushdoony’s father believed that God had spared his family for a purpose, and strongly felt that his son, Rousas John, was an integral part of that purpose.
