Gordon Leidner is a Lincoln scholar and former president of the Lincoln Group of the District of Columbia. He maintains the website Great American History, on which he has written about Lincoln’s religious faith. He says Lincoln’s legacy in American civil religion is that he never doubted the existence and sovereignty of God or that God had a purpose for America — and that it was our duty to determine what that will was and follow it. Leidner is in Annapolis, Md.
