His Story

A veteran writing with purpose.

Oren A. Freshour is a 97-year-old widower and veteran who has had the honor of serving his country. His writing comes from a place of personal conviction, national concern, and a deep belief that faith in God remains vital to the moral and civic life of America.

Through Proof of God: And Why Science and the Bible Are in Agreement, he hopes to reach readers who may have questions about God, science, the Bible, and the spiritual foundations that influenced the formation of the Republic and the Constitution.

His concern for the next generation

Freshour believes young people deserve more than partial answers. He writes out of concern that many students are taught to view science as proof against God, while receiving too little education about the historical role of faith in shaping America’s values, laws, and liberties.

His belief in education and democracy

Freshour’s message reflects the idea that a strong democracy depends on an educated people. He hopes his book can help fill a gap by encouraging readers to examine faith, science, civic responsibility, and history with seriousness and openness.

The only way you can sustain a Democracy is to have an educated Democracy.

Author Values

The convictions behind the book.

Oren A. Freshour’s work is shaped by a clear set of beliefs: that God is real, that science and the Bible are compatible, that faith helped shape America, and that younger generations deserve to understand the history and principles that came before them.

Faith in God

Freshour wrote Proof of God out of concern that many young people are being taught that science has disproven God, while not being taught enough about the history of faith, the Bible, and their influence on the formation of the Republic and the Constitution.

Love for country

As a veteran, Freshour approaches his message with concern for the United States, its Constitution, and the principles of freedom that helped define the nation.

Responsibility to teach

His book is written as a teaching-minded work for young people, doubters, families, educators, and readers who are willing to ask important questions.

Why He Wrote Proof of God

A personal response to a cultural and spiritual concern.

Freshour wrote Proof of God because he believes too many young people are being taught that science has proven there is no God. He is concerned that students in schools and colleges may be hearing these claims while learning too little about the history of God, the Bible, faith, and their influence on America’s founding principles.

His goal is not to preach a denominational sermon. His goal is to provide a short, informative book that answers questions, presents historical facts, and encourages readers to consider why science and the Bible can be understood as compatible rather than opposing forces.

His Message to Readers

Think deeply. Learn honestly. Remember the foundations.

Freshour’s author message is both spiritual and civic. He wants readers to reflect on God’s role as Creator, the compatibility of science and the Bible, and the responsibility of each generation to understand the values that shaped the country they inherit.
