Gertrude Ederle smashed records on 6th August, 1926, becoming the first woman to swim the English Channel - and in faster time than any man before her. Battling six-foot waves and jellyfish swarms, the American teen zig-zagged the current for over 14 hours from France to England. Sponsored by the New York Daily News, Ederle had a nation in thrall, who, thanks to newfangled wireless radio updates, were able to follow her progress live like it was the Super Bowl. When she stepped onto the beach in Dover, journalists literally swam out to meet her. Back home, 2 million people packed the streets of NYC for her ticker-tape parade — the first ever for a woman. President Calvin Coolidge dubbed her “America's Best Girl.” In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly uncover the more dispiriting final chapters of Ederle's life; explain how she was able to drink soup whilst she was swimming; and interrogate whether she really was the ‘flapper' the 1920s press ghostwriters made her out to be… Further Reading: • ‘Young Woman and The Sea: The Real History of Gertrude Ederle's Swim' (HistoryExtra, 2024): https://www.historyextra.com/period/20th-century/gertrude-ederle-first-woman-swim-swam-english-channel-matthew-webb-american/ • ‘This Day In Sports: Gertrude Ederle Swims the Channel' (The New York Times, 2004): https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/packages/html/sports/year_in_sports/08.06.html?scp=1&sq=English%20Bay&st=cse • ‘Young Woman and the Sea | Official Trailer' (Disney, 2024): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tNvrYzPUrk Love the show?

LESSONS FOR THE EMPTYING WHITE HOUSE 2028: 5/8: 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents by David Pietrusza (Author) https://www.amazon.com/1920-Year-Presidents-David-Pietrusza/dp/0786721022 The presidential election of 1920 was one of the most dramatic ever. For the only time in the nation's history, six once-and-future presidents hoped to end up in the White House: Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding, Calvin Coolidge, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover, and Theodore Roosevelt. It was an election that saw unprecedented levels of publicity -- the Republicans outspent the Democrats by 4 to 1 -- and it was the first to garner extensive newspaper and newsreel coverage. It was also the first election in which women could vote. Meanwhile, the 1920 census showed that America had become an urban nation -- automobiles, mass production, chain stores, and easy credit were transforming the economy and America was limbering up for the most spectacular decade of its history, the roaring '20s. Award-winning historian David Pietrusza's riveting new work presents a dazzling panorama of presidential personalities, ambitions, plots, and counterplots -- a picture of modern America at the crossroads.

Join us for today's sermon podcast, where we delve into the powerful message drawn from Apostle Paul's prayer in Ephesians, urging believers to share the gospel fearlessly and with clarity. This episode explores the intersection of faith and patriotism, challenging the notion that Christians cannot be patriotic. Emphasizing the true meaning behind the phrase "God Bless America," we reflect on what spiritual blessings are essential for our nation and how we, as Christians, can be good stewards of our nation and faith. Through the lens of biblical teachings, we address the importance of prioritizing God's kingdom and His righteousness in our lives and communities. We draw inspiration from historical figures like George Washington and explore how reverence for God's Word, house, and will can lead to national repentance and renewal. This sermon encourages us all to live out our faith actively, becoming salt and light in our communities and leading our nation back to its spiritual roots. “America – God Shed His Grace on Thee” “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord…” - Psalm 33:12 Main Idea: The true blessing of a nation comes not from power or prosperity, but from honoring God through repentance, righteousness, and the faithful witness of His people. Introduction: What Do We Mean by “God Bless America”? - Matthew 6:33 “It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” — George Washington, Thanksgiving Proclamation, 1789 “Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?” — Thomas Jefferson, Notes on the State of Virginia, 1785 “God Bless America” with Spiritual Blessings - Proverbs 14:34 a. Recover Lost Values Micah 6:8 “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.” - George Washington b. Recover the “Faith of Our Fathers” The Mayflower Compact (1620) began with a covenant “for the glory of God and advancement of the Christian faith.” “To the distinguished character of a Patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of a Christian.” — George Washington c. Rebirth of Reverence For God's Day (Sabbath), God's Book (Scripture), God's House (worship), and God's Will (obedience). Hebrews 10:25 “The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease.”— Calvin Coolidge, 1924 III. “God Bless America” Should Also Mean “God Save America!” 2 Chronicles 7:14 a. From Moral Decay Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls. - 1 Peter 2:11 (NLT) “We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven... but we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace... and we have vainly imagined... that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own.” — Abraham Lincoln b. From False Ideologies and Religions Colossians 2:8 “The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” — John Quincy Adams “God Bless America” Through the Church - Matthew 5:13–16 a. The Church Must Lead in Repentance and Renewal “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, 1798 “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom.” — Benjamin Franklin, 1787 b. Faith Must Be Active James 2:17 “I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth—that God governs in the affairs of men.” — Benjamin Franklin, June 28, 1787, Philadelphia Constitutional Convention Conclusion: A Call to Hope and Holiness - Psalm 33:20–22 America's hope is not in her wealth or might, but in her Maker. “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” Ronald Reagan, 1984 Call to Action: Pray for national repentance.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageTracing the intellectual lineage connecting America's founding fathers to modern conservatism reveals a profound relationship that's often overlooked in contemporary political discourse. This Liberty Minute episode—part of our special "Lovers of Liberty" series counting down to America's 249th birthday—explores Mark Levin's transformative work "Liberty and Tyranny" as the definitive conservative manifesto for our times.What makes Levin's book so powerful is how clearly it articulates the conservative worldview while demonstrating its direct connection to the founding principles. While exploring the historical context of conservatism's ebbs and flows—from its decline after Herbert Hoover through its resurrection with Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan—we discover that conservative principles never truly changed. They were merely waiting to be rediscovered and reapplied to contemporary challenges.The essence of both conservatism and America's founding lies in recognizing the dignity of individuals, their God-given natural rights, and the harmony of interests that creates a civil society. As Levin writes, "In the civil society, the individual is recognized and accepted as more than just an abstract statistic or faceless member of some group. Rather, he is a unique spiritual being with a soul and a conscience." This vision stands in stark contrast to statism, which sees the individual as subordinate to centralized authority. The founders understood this distinction perfectly, which is why they created a constitutional republic with limited government and robust individual liberty. Their wisdom remains our surest guide as we confront today's challenges and prepare to celebrate America's semiquincentennial. Have you considered how these founding principles still shape your life and liberty today?Key Points from the Episode:• Book four in our "Lovers of Liberty" special series celebrating America's upcoming 249th birthday• Historical context of conservatism from Calvin Coolidge through Reagan• Exploration of how conservatism connects to America's founding principles• The importance of individual dignity, God-given natural rights, and civil society • The rule of law and private property as inseparable from liberty• Why conservatism serves as "the antidote to tyranny"• The essential difference between conservatism and modern liberalism (statism)• How understanding founding principles helps us prepare for America's 250th birthdayJoin us tomorrow for book three in our countdown to July 4th as we continue celebrating America's exceptional national character.Keep fighting the good fight.Other resources: Lovers of Liberty--Book 5Want to leave a review?

Father's Day, as celebrated in the United States, largely originated from the efforts of Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington. Inspired by a Mother's Day sermon in 1909 and wanting to honor her own father, a Civil War veteran who raised six children as a single parent, Dodd campaigned for a similar observance for fathers. The first Father's Day celebration was held on June 19, 1910, in Spokane. While it gained some momentum and presidential support over the years from figures like Woodrow Wilson and Calvin Coolidge, it wasn't until 1972 that President Richard Nixon officially signed it into law, designating the third Sunday in June as a permanent national holiday.We are just three guys with three different takes on life, love, business, sex, and politics.

Calvin Coolidge, the 30th President of the United States, wrote a letter in 1917 that should resonate with us today.“The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically universal in our country.” This is a public episode.

Chapter 1 Focused NurturerChapter 2 Reluctant LeaderChapter 3 Exhausted FighterChapter 4 Resurrected HoperChapter 5 Generation AdvancerMotherhood Chapter 1 Focused NurturerThe keys to thriving in this chapter is to understand that… 1) this is a relatively short chapter in the scope of your whole story 2) you will get better at “mothering” as you go 3) live in the moment more than you long for the next moment Husbands/Father's it's not that you don't have a hand in the nurturing chapter it's just that what your family really needs is for you to Cover Spiritually, Lead Faithfully and Work Diligently. Motherhood Chapter 2 Reluctant LeaderLife has a way of making demands for which we aren't ready. “Where you go, I will go and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.” When you find yourself in the reluctant leader chapter, God will lead you out but you have to walk out. Motherhood Chapter 3 Exhausted FighterNo one is the same after a hard life/spiritual fight and you're not supposed to be, you're are supposed to be wiser and stronger – “battle tested” – this is a good thing but it is an exhausting thing.Your next life chapter is interconnected to your past chapters but your future is not dictated by those chapters – your future is 100% dependent on God. God never wastes our hard, He uses it to glorify Him and strengthen us. Remember, this chapter isn't a dead end, it's a new life beginning. Motherhood Chapter 4 Resurrected HoperBiblical hope is not a wish, it is a confident expectation that God's got this and God's got you! Hope has the ability to sustain life in its darkest, emptiest moments. Psalm 121 (NIV) A Psalm of Assent I lift up my eyes to the mountains — where does my help come from? [In this context you could say, ‘where does my hope come from']2 My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. 3 He will not let your foot slip — he who watches over you will not slumber; 4 indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. 5 The Lord watches over you — the Lord is your shade at your right hand; 6 the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. 7 The Lord will keep you from all harm — he will watch over your life; 8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.Motherhood Chapter 5 Generation AdvancerRuth 4:13-17 (NIV) 13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. When he made love to her, the Lord enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son. 14 The women said to Naomi: “Praise be to the Lord, who this day has not left you without a guardian-redeemer. May he become famous throughout Israel! 15 He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. For your daughter-in-law, who loves you and who is better to you than seven sons, has given him birth.” 16 Then Naomi took the child in her arms and cared for him. 17 The women living there said, “Naomi has a son!” And they named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David.Your story is a good story and you are not alone in your story. Your current chapter is a link in a chain. Let me encourage you…Don't get stuck in a chapter.Don't define your life by one chapter. One chapter doesn't define you so one chapter can't defeat you.Carry hope in every chapter.Be encouraged in what God can do through a life committed to Him and His purposes. “Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan Press On! has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” Calvin Coolidge 30th President of the Unites States of AmericaGalatians 6:9 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Sabtu, 3 Mei 2025Bacaan: "Tetapi semua orang yang menerima-Nya diberi-Nya kuasa supaya menjadi anak-anak Allah, yaitu mereka yang percaya dalam nama-Nya." (Yohanes 1:12)Renungan: Tidak banyak orang mengetahui bahwa Calvin Coolidge, Presiden Amerika Serikat, tidak selalu tinggal di Gedung Putih. Ketika masih menjadi Wakil Presiden, ia tinggal di lantai tiga suite dekat Willard Hotel, sampai awal terpilihnya dia menjadi presiden. Pernah di suatu malam Coolidge terbangun. Rupanya ada pencuri masuk ke kamarnya dan sedang "menggeledah" barang berharga miliknya. Dia melihat pencuri mengambil dompet, lalu melepaskan rantai jam tangan. Coolidge berbicara dalam kegelapan, "Mengenai jam itu, saya harap Anda jangan mengambilnya." Pencuri yang saat itu terkejut lalu bertanya, "Kenapa?" "Saya tidak mempermasalahkan jamnya, tetapi ada kenangan indah mengenai jam itu. Kenangan itu sangat berarti bagi saya. Bawalah jam itu dekat jendela agar kau bisa melihat apa yang ada di baliknya," kata Coolidge. Pencuri itu pun membaca sebuah tulisan di balik jam tersebut, "Diberikan kepada Calvin Coolidge, Ketua DPR, oleh Pengadilan Umum Massachusets." Kini pencuri itu lebih terkejut lagi. "Apakah Anda Presiden Coolidge?" tanyanya. Dia sama sekali tidak mengira akan menemukan seorang presiden tidur di hotel. "Ya, benar, dan saya tidak ingin engkau mengambil itu. Mengapa engkau melakukan ini, Nak?" Pria muda itu menjelaskan bahwa ia dan seorang teman datang ke Washington selama libur kuliah. Mereka kehabisan uang dan tidak bisa membayar tagihan hotel serta membayar ongkos kereta api untuk kembali. "Jika Anda tidak keberatan, saya akan mengambil dompetmu," kata pemuda itu. Coolidge tidak keberatan. la tahu bahwa ia memiliki sekitar $ 80 di dompetnya. "Berapa tagihan hotel dan ongkos yang engkau dan temanmu butuhkan? Duduklah dan mari kita bicarakan ini," kata Coolidge sambil menghitung tarif kamar dan harga dua tiket kereta api. Semuanya $ 32. "Saya akan memberimu $ 32 sebagai pinjaman, dan saya berharap kau akan mengembalikannya," kata Presiden. Coolidge lalu menasihatinya untuk melewati jendela yang sama ketika ia masuk ruangan, untuk menghindari dinas rahasia yang bertugas. Pemuda itu pergi dengan sebuah nasihat dari Coolidge, "Nak, kau anak yang baik. Engkau lebih baik daripada yang engkau lakukan. Ingatlah itu, karena kau mulai memilih jalan yang salah." Menjelang kematian Presiden Coolidge pada tahun 1957, kisah ini diizinkan untuk beredar. Pertama kali diterbitkan dalam "Los Angeles Times." Dan yang paling menarik dari semuanya, ternyata pemuda itu telah mengembalikan semua uang yang dipinjamkan presiden padanya. Ia membuktikan kata-kata presiden bahwa ia lebih baik daripada yang pernah ia lakukan. Jika kita menyadari kelebihan dan keistimewaan kita sebagai anak Tuhan, maka kita tidak akan melakukan tindakan yang mencemarkan dan memalukan. Setiap kali kita tergoda untuk melakukan tindakan yang tidak patut sebagai anak-anak Raja, ingatlah siapa kita. Di dalam diri kita ada benih-benih ilahi yang seharusnya melahirkan tindakan yang mulia. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku bangga menjadi anak-Mu. Berilah aku kemampuan untuk hidup dalam kebenaran dan bertindak sebagaimana layaknya anak Tuhan. Amin. (Dod).
There was a time in the not-too-distant past where every political candidate looking to tout his or her conservative principles trotted out connections to and affinities for Ronald Reagan. And in a certain subset, those who really wanted to signal they were committed to smaller or more limited government reached even farther back into history, preaching the wisdom of President Calvin Coolidge. So what do their legacies look like today in this interesting political moment we find ourselves in? This episode of Giving Ventures features the leaders of both the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute as well as the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation. First, Amity Shlaes, chair of the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation, discusses how Coolidge's ideals are being revived and instilled in new generations. Next, David Trulio, president and CEO of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute, shares how Reagan's timeless principles are being adapted to modern challenges.
Dr. Vincent Kane, head of school at Idaho Novus Classical Academy in Eagle, Idaho, joins host Scot Bertram to discuss president Calvin Coolidge's upbringing and political legacy, what we can learn from Coolidge's presidency, and how classical education fulfills Coolidge's federalist vision for the United States.

A powerful wake-up call for Americans who have forgotten the Christian foundations of our republic. In this thought-provoking episode, I explore how we've been blessed with countless talents yet often fail to use them for God's purposes or our nation's benefit.What talents has God given you? Whether it's athletic ability, academic intelligence, compassion, loyalty, or financial resources - we all have something. The real question is: what are you doing with these gifts? Just like in Jesus's parable of the talents, we'll be judged not by comparison to others but by how we've stewarded what we've been given. Those blessed with more carry greater responsibility.For generations, Americans have proudly rested on the achievements of those who went before us, celebrating our victories while gradually losing what they fought for. I share Calvin Coolidge's profound 1923 Memorial Day address, where he declared that American institutions are "founded on righteousness" and that the settlers who shaped our nation were "intent upon establishing a Christian commonwealth." This uncomfortable truth challenges modern notions of patriotism: you cannot be truly pro-American if you reject the general principles of Christianity that form our foundation.Most urgently, I warn that "there's going to come a final opportunity" - both for individuals to accept Christ and for our nation to return to its roots. Just as there comes a day when a spouse stops asking for attention or a child stops asking to play, there will come a time when God stops calling us to turn to Him. That reality should motivate us to action now, before it's too late.Join me in examining how our personal faith connects to America's destiny and why acknowledging our Christian heritage isn't just about preserving history—it's about securing our future. What will you do with the time and talents God has given you?Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
A century ago, in March 1925, Charles G. Dawes was sworn in as vice president of the United States. Being elected vice president of the United States — as Dawes was, alongside Calvin Coolidge, in a landslide — is usually a career pinnacle for an American politician, but Dawes' vice presidency turned out to be more of a footnote in his eventful life. In the second part of this two-part podcast series — presented by nCino — Dawes biographer Annette Dunlap explores Dawes' service as head of logistics for the American Expeditionary Force in World War I (an organizational feat never before pulled off in American military history), his work in international diplomacy during the 1920s, his vice presidency under Calvin Coolidge and how he engineered a bailout for his troubled bank in the throes of the Great Depression.

In the first part of this two-part podcast series — presented by R&T Deposit Solutions — Dawes biographer Annette Dunlap walks listeners through Dawes' early life, his big ideas in banking and his service as comptroller of the currency, and how he built up Chicago as a regional banking center. At this centennial moment, and in this 150th anniversary year for ABA, it's worth reflecting on the fascinating and complex life of Charley Dawes.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the hate America Attorney General's in blue states and the hate America press want you to believe that birthright citizenship is in the Constitution. It's not in the Constitution. It's not in any of the legislative history for the 14th Amendment It's not in the 1866 Civil Rights Act. The idea that if you're born in the U.S., you're automatically a citizen is a sham. President Trump's executive order should be effective enough to end birthright citizenship but there will be an activist effort against this saying that the Supreme Court set a precedent. Also, President Trump is remaking the federal bureaucracy right before our eyes. What Trump is doing, across the board, is courageous and more conservative than President H.W. Bush or President W. Bush. The 3 most conservative presidents of the last 100 years are Calvin Coolidge, Ronald Reagan, and Trump. Later, the Bernie Sanders Marxist crap has gotten us to where we are today. Look at your paycheck stub - is a billionaire taking your money? No, it's the government. No company creates inflation – it's the government. But Sanders' answer is more government, just get the billionaires. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
A Note from James: So we have a brand new president of the United States, and of course, everyone has their opinion about whether President Trump has been good or bad, will be good and bad. Everyone has their opinion about Biden, Obama, and so on. But what makes someone a good president? What makes someone a bad president? Obviously, we want our presidents to be moral and ethical, and we want them to be as transparent as possible with the citizens. Sometimes they can't be totally transparent—negotiations, economic policies, and so on. But we want our presidents to have courage without taking too many risks. And, of course, we want the country to grow economically, though that doesn't always happen because of one person. I saw this list where historians ranked all the presidents from 1 to 47. I want to comment on it and share my take on who I think are the best and worst presidents. Some of my picks might surprise you. Episode Description: In this episode, James breaks down the rankings of U.S. presidents and offers his unique perspective on who truly deserves a spot in the top 10—and who doesn't. Looking beyond the conventional wisdom of historians, he examines the impact of leadership styles, key decisions, and constitutional powers to determine which presidents left a lasting, positive impact. From Abraham Lincoln's crisis leadership to the underappreciated successes of James K. Polk and Calvin Coolidge, James challenges popular rankings and provides insights you won't hear elsewhere. What You'll Learn: The key qualities that define a great president beyond just popularity. Why Abraham Lincoln is widely regarded as the best president—and whether James agrees. How Franklin D. Roosevelt's policies might have extended the Great Depression. The surprising president who expanded the U.S. more than anyone else. Why Woodrow Wilson might actually be one of the worst presidents in history. Timestamped Chapters: [01:30] What makes a great president? [02:29] The official duties of the presidency.

7/8: 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents by David Pietrusza (Author) https://www.amazon.com/1920-Year-Presidents-David-Pietrusza/dp/0786721022 The presidential election of 1920 was one of the most dramatic ever. For the only time in the nation's history, six once-and-future presidents hoped to end up in the White House: Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding, Calvin Coolidge, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover, and Theodore Roosevelt. It was an election that saw unprecedented levels of publicity -- the Republicans outspent the Democrats by 4 to 1 -- and it was the first to garner extensive newspaper and newsreel coverage. It was also the first election in which women could vote. Meanwhile, the 1920 census showed that America had become an urban nation -- automobiles, mass production, chain stores, and easy credit were transforming the economy and America was limbering up for the most spectacular decade of its history, the roaring '20s.
