Christianity has over 2 billion followers across the globe, and in the U.S. alone, 200 different denominations represent the many facets and interpretations of The Bible. If you were to ask Abraham Lincoln in 1847, during his campaign for the U.S House of Representatives in Illinois, if he thought of himself as a Christian, you might have left the conversation a little confused. Lincoln's Faith and Religious convictions were as articulate and multilayered as the man himself, and offer an interesting interplay into how the idea of God shaped a Man, and a Nation, during one of the Bloodiest conflicts in American history.
