Costly Courage Before the Declaration

Before America declared independence, ordinary men took extraordinary risks by forming and joining the Continental Army on June 14, 1775. These patriots understood that resisting the British Crown could cost them their property, freedom, or even their lives. Yet they chose conviction over comfort and duty over safety. True courage acts before outcomes are guaranteed. In a culture often intimidated by criticism or public pressure, the story of the Continental Army challenges believers and citizens alike to stand faithfully for truth and liberty, even at great cost.
