America at 250: The Faith That Built a Nation

As America celebrates 250 years of independence, it's the perfect time to rediscover the extraordinary men who risked everything to give birth to the greatest republic in history.   WallBuilders founders David and Tim Barton join Erick Stakelbeck to discuss their bestselling new book, Lives, Fortunes, and Sacred Honor, and reveal the remarkable stories of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence—men whose courage, faith, and sacrifice forever changed the course of human history. Drawing from rare original documents and centuries-old artifacts, the Bartons explain why America's founding was unlike any other nation, why the Declaration and Constitution have endured for 250 years, and how biblical principles shaped the birth of the United States. They also introduce viewers to overlooked founders like Benjamin Rush, John Witherspoon, and Francis Hopkinson—patriots whose contributions helped build the American experiment.   At a time when many are questioning America's past, David and Tim Barton make the case that understanding our true history is essential to securing our future. If we forget the sacrifices that built this nation, we risk losing the freedoms they secured. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
