SCCFSA is hosting a class on the U.S. Constitution and our nation's founding principles.

In this day and age of government over-reach, it is more important than ever that concerned citizens like you learn anew the principles that have made America great and will continue to serve her well.

To date, over 250 people have taken Coalition for Advancing Freedom (CAF) Constitution Classes. We continue to hear what a difference these 6-week classes are making in people's lives. This class will re-kindle your understanding and appreciation for our nation's framework of governance, give you hope for the future and spur you on to civic action. Parents with high-school teens, get some quality time with your young adults and sign up with them.

This is a 6 week course, one night a week which covers a clear overview of the U.S. Constitution. It also covers how important religion was, numerous historical facts, the founder's thinking on many of the Constitutional debates and our religion that are so relevant to us today.

The course is based on the book,
The 5000 Year Leap, and the Rick Green lecture series from Wallbuilders. The course is free. Course materials, including two books, a pocket Constitution, and numerous handouts are available for purchase at CAF's wholesale cost of $25.00.
