Abraham Lincoln: Words That Challenge, Words That Heal

Greetings from the Trinity Forum! We are pleased to present our new Spring Trinity Forum Reading, Abraham Lincoln: Words That Challenge, Words That Heal.

As America marks its 250th anniversary, Trinity Forum Senior Fellow Ronald C. White invites us to take a fresh look at one of history’s most extraordinary leaders — Abraham Lincoln — through the words he left behind. From his earliest campaign announcement to his Second Inaugural Address, Lincoln’s speeches, private meditations, and letters reveal a man of profound moral seriousness whose faith deepened through the crucible of national crisis. White shows us that Lincoln’s rare gift was not merely eloquence, but the ability to use language to challenge, convict, and ultimately heal a divided nation. In a moment when America again wrestles with its past and its future, Lincoln’s words speak with striking power to those with ears to hear.

We are delighted to offer this Trinity Forum Reading as just one example of the resources we provide to our members to sharpen their understanding, grow their faith, and equip them to live and lead wisely and well.
