Building On The American Heritage Series - Foundations of American Government
Embark on a revelatory expedition through America's founding principles as we demystify the Declaration of Independence and its enduring impact on our nation. Uncover the profound truths within this historic document that assert our Creator-endowed inalienable rights, and judge the government's sacred duty to protect them. We scrutinize the historical debates surrounding contentious issues like abortion and homosexuality, proving these moral quandaries are deeply entrenched in our nation's fabric, not just contemporary conundrums. Venture further into the relationship between the Ten Commandments and American law, where we illustrate the biblical bedrock of our legal system. David Barton imparts wisdom on the scriptural imperatives that have shaped governance since Genesis, exemplifying the divine expectation for governments to uphold justice and righteousness. In the narrative of America's history, we confront the nation's flaws head-on while celebrating its triumphs, reinforcing the indispensable role of government in preserving order and safeguarding liberties. Finally, we review the Constitution's resolute success and challenge the widespread mischaracterization of it as a secular artifact. We juxtapose the U. S. Constitution's remarkable stability against the fleeting lifespans of other nations' charters and advocate for a return to its original, spiritually-informed intents. Join us as we champion the biblical infusion in our foundational documents and the imperative to acknowledge their divine heritage for the future prosperity of our nation. Support the show
