Our Magnificent Possession

Dear Friends,

What would life in our United States be like today if each state was free and independent... as was outlined in our original Articles of Confederation?  It certainly wouldn't be anything like you or I are familiar with. In fact, it would be INCREDIBLY different than what we know today! Listen to this fascinating story and hear for yourself why our forefathers SCRAPPED our original form of government and instead created our "magnificent posession", the Constitution of the United States! This is a GREAT history/government lesson your kids will long remember! This episode of "American Heritage" was syndicated by the United States Armed Forces Radio Service in the early 1950s. The download link is further down on this page... just keep scrolling down until you get there!


Check out this new resource: Six years of Bible lessons is only the beginning...!

Okay... here is the link to this week's "Living Book for the Ears" program:

Magnificent Possession

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS below if you are unfamiliar with downloading a file or are having any problems with your download.

To download a program, RIGHT click (use the right hand button on your mouse) the link above, and "save target as" (or "save link as") to the directory of your choice.

The file should start downloading right away. If it doesn't, try it again, and follow these instructions carefully. (DON'T cut and paste this link into your web browser -- that will just PLAY the program over the internet (it will be jumpy and start & stop a lot), and will not DOWNLOAD the program. If you want to download it to your computer, you need to follow the above instructions.)

NOTE: If the file just starts playing over your computer right away, that's because you clicked the link with the LEFT hand button on your mouse. You need to click the RIGHT HAND button to download the whole show to your computer.

IF you right click the link and your computer does not allow you to "save target", you need to adjust your computer's security settings (or disable your "internet content advisor" settings) to allow downloaded files.

MAC USERS: In order to download these files, hold down the Control key then click the link with your mouse.  It will then download to the directory you choose.

If your download is unusually slow, it could be because our server is busy or overtaxed. You might try again at a later hour. It should - eventually - work fine.

This file will be available for the next week or two only, so don't put off downloading it if you want a copy.
