Alfred Deakin: Founding Father of the Australian Federation
Description
In the latter part of the 19th century, Australia was coming of age as a nation. Five of the six colonies had introduced their own constitution, and the nation as a whole was on the cutting edge of world-leading initiatives. Literature and art were thriving, education was overhauled, and Australians were enjoying a golden age. Socially, politically, economically and culturally, the country was coming into its own. At this juncture, beginning in the 1890s there was a push by leaders towards creating a Federal government thus making Australia a fully-fledged nation in its own right. One of the key figures in this movement was Alfred Deakin. Deakin was a leading statesman, an orator and a lawmaker. This week we take a look at his life and legacy. 📚 *The free booklet to this episode "God's Plan for My Life&":* 📚 https://tij.tv/offers/gods-plan-for-my-life/ 💿 *Similar Topics:* 💿 Sydney Convicts https://youtu.be/0zZnsND_2xM The Faith of the Prime Ministers https://youtu.be/1HvI3Psu-iI The Australian Powerbroker - Alfred Deakin https://youtu.be/o1Lda0OX37Q Captain Cook: Master of the Seven Seas https://youtu.be/v3yHWxcBeEI The Man who named Australia: Matthew Flinders https://youtu.be/Em34Gux0-bk Australia's Deadliest Flood - Gundagai 1852 https://youtu.be/QcARlqYb8Q8 https://tij.tv/playlist/australian-history 🇦🇺 *About the Ministry* 🇦🇺 *The Incredible Journey* is a donor-funded ministry passionate about communicating our bold vision of sharing the good news of Christ and preparing people for the soon coming of Jesus.
