Robert Rogers
Robert Rogers was an influential figure in the early American frontier, best known for his role as a soldier, explorer, and author. Born in New Hampshire, he gained prominence during the French and Indian War, where he led Rogers' Rangers, a unit known for its unconventional tactics and guerrilla warfare. His experiences in the wilderness and military campaigns inspired his writings, particularly his notable work, "The Concise History of North America," which provided insights into the geography, peoples, and conflicts of the time. Rogers' narratives not only documented the challenges of frontier life but also contributed to the emerging American identity.

I pick blessings over brokenness. ...when I truly make my home in the presence of God Almighty -- through daily Scripture reading, prayer, and worship -- then I'm able to absolutely trust Him.”
“When we suffer great losses -- and suffering and loss are universal experiences -- something will consume our emptiness and fill the void. The question is, will it be healthy and wise or unhealthy and fleeting? I chose to be consumed by God. I found that only Christ could satisfy me. ...intimacy in God's presence -- fellowship with Him -- is what most healed my heart and restored my soul. It took faithful, intentional, and deliberate time every day to pray, read Scripture, worship, and wait patiently in God's presence. But every moment was worth it.”
