Underneath was a Continental Army uniform. He told his congregation there is a time for everything, a time to preach and a time to fight. Janine Turner wanted to capture something bigger than one man’s decision. The clergy of the Revolution believed liberty was not just a political idea, but a divine one. Pastor Muhlenberg did not just preach that belief. He put on a uniform to prove it.
