Christ and Classics

38. Creating America, feat. Ben House (Season 4, Episode 1)

03 Sep 2024

Description

In this episode of the Christ in Classics podcast, Colton Moore and Ben House kick off Season 4 with a history lesson: the birth of America. They briefly discuss their upcoming book, Beyond the Horizon: An Appeal to Parents for Classical Christian Education. The main portion of their conversation deals with the Declaration of Independence and the formation of the American colonies. They explore the motivations behind the colonization of America, including religious freedom and economic opportunities. They discuss the development of representative governments in the colonies and the growing sense of independence among the colonists. The conversation concludes with an overview of the American Revolution and the significance of the Declaration of Independence, which segues nicely into next week’s episode where Devin and Colton will tackle the Declaration of Independence as both literature and political philosophy.
