There is a forgotten story in America’s founding that most Americans have never heard. It is woven from countless instances of improbable, unimaginable success. Whether it is the supernatural protection that surrounded George Washington – the Father of our Country – throughout his life, the mysterious weather conditions that dramatically favored the movements of the Continental Army at critical battlefield junctures, or the unique and longstanding success of a revolution unlike any other in recorded world history, it is difficult, nearly impossible, to explain the outcome of any of these, and so many more events like them, without allowing for divine intervention. In his first inaugural speech, President George Washington described it as “the Invisible Hand which conducts the affairs of men.”
Narrated by Michael Medved and filmed at historic locations in the United States, The American Miracle stars Pat Boone, Kevin Sorbo, Nicole C. Mullen, Cameron Arnett, and James Arnold Taylor, along with authors and scholars Joseph Ellis, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert P. George, Akhil Reed Amar, and Jana Novak, among many others.

"I remembered hearing about this movie prior to its release but then lost track of it. I am very glad that I was able to find it available and to watch it. The movie was very education and still entertaining, and the production quality was very good too."
"We were excited to see the film version of this important book. Filming it at historical venues made the stories come alive. . . . . The book was great (and everyone should read it!) but the movie makes a very strong impression----especially the first story about Jefferson and Adams dying on the same day. Powerful!"
"Excellent!!! I went to the movie at the theater back in June for my birthday. I decided that I wanted to have the movie in my home so that I could share it with other family members."
"After watching TheAmerican Miracle; Our Nation Is No Accident, I felt truly inspired!! Time and time again God providentially made a way for America to survive!! There are so many instances in the founding of our country that can only be explained as God's providence!!! Saving George Washington's life repeatedly, sudden weather events at exactly the right time, have no other explanation but Godly intervention!! This film is a definite must see!!"
"We need people to love America and recognize the hand of providence and the miracles that made America possible. I found the documentary helpful for those who don’t read books. It’s a little sleepy for me. The music at the end is great. Valley Forge was much worse than shown and changed my love of country. I wish it would have had more emphasis in this film. I’m glad this came out before our 250 th! Thank you Ben Carson for your endorsement of this film."
"Fascinating!"
"It’s everything they said it was."
"I was expecting a professional documentary with some theatrics, I stopped watching after 25 minutes, and I counted each one. I had to watch a PBS documentary to cleanse my brain after."
"Everyone, especially children, should be required to view this fantastic film so I bought multiple copies to gift to family and friends. Extremely well done historical account of our country's founding."
"I saw this movie at the theater earlier this summer and was so happy to see it released on dvd. It is the perfect combination of dramatic, onsite reenactment with excellent acting and commentary by scholars and authorities on the founding of our country and the founding fathers themselves. I believe it is a must-see for every young person and adult in our country."
