We welcome Darryl G. Hart back to Christ the Center to discuss Protestants and Patriots: Presbyterians in the Age of Revolution, published by the University of Notre Dame Press. Hart traces the transatlantic story of Presbyterianism from the Reformation through the age of revolutions, asking why Presbyterian polity so often became a political irritant in Britain, Ireland, North America, and beyond. The conversation ranges from Calvin's Geneva and the French Reformed connection to the Scottish Covenanters, the English civil wars, John Witherspoon, the American founding, the 1788 revision of the Westminster Confession, and contemporary debates over Christian nationalism. Along the way, Hart helps us see how questions of church government, civil authority, establishment, liberty, and public memory are bound up with the church's confession that Christ alone is head of his church.

The "glorious revolution" of 1688-89 would change the terms of the English monarchy, and reverberate through American history.
Before the Declaration of Independence, before the Constitutional Convention, colonists were already debating the meaning of a constitution — and it didn't look anything like the document we know today. Dr. Zachary Deibel, assistant professor of history at the Virginia Military Institute, joins Dr. Katie Crawford Lackey at Montpelier to trace the constitutional ideas that shaped the American Revolution. Drawing on the writings of John Dickinson, the legacy of the Glorious Revolution, and the colonial charters that defined the relationship between the King and his American subjects, Deibel unpacks why the dispute with Britain wasn't simply about taxes — it was a fundamental disagreement over the meaning of liberty itself. He also explores a theme that resonates well beyond the 18th century: when two sides decide there is nothing left to learn from each other, that's when the shooting starts. This episode is supported in part by the Virginia Law Foundation.
Dan Edelstein is a professor of French, history, and political science at Stanford University. He's also the author of several books on revolution and the Enlightenment, including The Revolution to Come: A History of an Idea from Thucydides to Lenin, Let There Be Enlightenment: The Religious and Mystical Sources of Rationality, Scripting Revolution: A Historical Approach to the Comparative Study of Revolutions, and The Enlightenment: A Genealogy. Greg and Dan discuss the changing meaning of “revolution” as an idea rather than a catalog of revolts. Dan explains how Greeks distinguished violent upheaval (stasis) from regime change, how “revolution” entered political vocabulary via Polybius's rediscovered Book VI, and how fears of cyclical instability shaped mixed-constitution thinking from antiquity to the American founders. They contrast pre-1789 “revolution” as restoration (including England's Glorious Revolution) with the French Revolution's progress-driven, consensus-seeking model that produces counterrevolution, factional purges, and a “Red Leviathan.” The discussion covers Enlightenment cultural uses of “revolution,” the ancients-vs-moderns debate and historical progress, differences between Anglo-American common-law rights and French state-centered reform, the tainted term in 1989, revolutionary “playbooks,” and how literary training and novels illuminate revolutionary psychology. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: From preserving order to accelerating history 12:42: Once this new-fangled idea of historical progress starts to get going in France in the 18th century, suddenly you can have a totally different vision of yourself. You're not just trying to prevent change and maintain the existing situation as long as you can. Suddenly, you might become an accelerator—you might become—and this is when the word "revolutionary" emerges in France, in 1789—you want to be on the right side of history. You want to be, you know, in favor of progress. And so I think that this new idea, both about history and about the role of revolutions in this sort of progressive vision of history, it really has huge effects on how people think about themselves, how they act, and ultimately how these historical revolutions from 1789 onward play out. Why ancient thinkers designed politics to prevent revolution 06:52: For people, even before Polybius, people like Plato and Aristotle, this did become the question of political thought. Like, how do you prevent a state from being ripped apart by division and just leading to this kind of destruction and death that accompanies revolutions? And this is where we get the idea of a well-balanced constitution. Protection vs. power 39:02: The English and the Americans, you know, there's just this deep skepticism towards the government. You want to really protect the individual from governmental encroachment. The French are almost coming to the revolution wanting to empower the government for good, like it's going to solve all our problems.

Heading as we are into the 1680s on the timeline of the History of the Americans, it will be useful for all of us to know a few basic things about English politics in the 1680s, including especially the “exclusion crisis” of 1679-1681 and the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Both had a big impact on our own history. Along the way we learn more about John Locke, how the acquittal of William Penn transformed the law in England and ultimately the United States, the actual conspiracy between the English King Charles II and Louis XIV of France, the origin of the words “Tory” and “Whig” at the moment that the English invented political parties, the role of infant mortality in the politics of a monarchy, and the awful, but hilarious, “Popish Plot” conspiracy theory that shaped English politics in 1679-81.

The Glorious Revolution wasn't about religion. It was a corporate restructuring — and the invoice has never stopped compounding.In 1688, William III crossed the English Channel with 40,000 soldiers. But the men who mattered most weren't carrying weapons. They were carrying ledgers. Within six years, they handed England the Bank of England — and with it, a mechanism for permanent debt that would spread from London to New York, and has never stopped running.This is the hidden history of central banking. The blueprint behind every financial empire since 1694.Lesson 1 — The Glorious Revolution Was a Leveraged BuyoutEngland is broke. William doesn't just want a crown — he needs a war machine. The Dutch bankers who cross with him already know how to build one. And they have terms.Lesson 2 — The Same Money, TwiceWilliam Paterson's 1694 proposal: lend £1.2 million to the Crown — then issue £1.2 million in currency backed by that same loan. Same money. Twice. This is fractional reserve banking before it had a name, and the Crown just signed the contract.Lesson 3 — Why the Bank Needs WarThe Crown borrows. The bank issues bonds. Investors collect interest. The debt rolls forward — never paid back, always refinanced. By the War of Spanish Succession, debt grows from £1.2M to £36M. That's not failure. That's the system doing exactly what it was designed to do.Lesson 4 — The Rothschild Intelligence NetworkFive sons. Five cities. Courier networks faster than governments. Nathan Rothschild receives word of Waterloo before the British Crown — then executes one of the largest single-day trades in European history. But the real move wasn't the bond trade. It was making every government on the continent financially dependent on the network.Lesson 5 — Debt Is EmpireIndia. Egypt. The Ottoman Empire. Same pattern. Debt accumulates. Payments fail. Control follows. Ports, customs, trade routes — all secured through obligation, not conquest. No flags. No occupation. Just the ledger.The Ledger TodayIn November 1910, a private train left Hoboken, New Jersey, with drawn curtains and false names. Nine days later, the Federal Reserve was designed. Same blueprint. Different continent. 1694 to now. The Bank of England has never stopped operating.Amsterdam built it. London weaponized it. New York scaled it.The ledger never closes.
8. The Glorious Revolution and the Protestant Succession Guest Author: Jonathan Healey The century concluded with the reign of James II, whose open Catholicism and attempts to bypass Parliament sparked the Exclusion Crisis and the birth of the Whig and Tory parties. When James produced a Catholic heir in 1688, fearful Protestant leaders invited William of Orange to intervene. William landed on November 5th, leading James to flee to France. The resulting Glorious Revolution established William and Mary as joint monarchs, finalizing a century of upheaval. Healey argues these events provided the constitutional arguments—such as representation and the rights of the governed—that would later inspire the American founders. (8)1655 J. VAN DER AEK
Scripture, Sash & Memory - Episode 1: Memory, Why We Refuse to ForgetBecause too often, Protestant marching culture is talked about without being properly understood.It's reduced to headlines, assumptions or controversy, without exploring the deeper roots that shaped it.Scripture, Sash & Memory is about going beyond that.This series looks at how faith, history and community experience, particularly through the Reformation and the Glorious Revolution, have shaped a culture that still exists today.Not to defend it.Not to preach.But to understand it.Episode 1: Memory, Why We Refuse to ForgetWhy do we remember?Why does remembrance still matter in a world that keeps telling us to move on?In this opening episode, we explore the idea that memory is not about hatred, it's about identity.This episode sets the foundation for the entire series, looking at how Protestant marching culture in Northern Ireland carries inherited patterns shaped by belief, history and community, even for those who no longer actively practise that belief.We're not making the case that band culture is biblical.We're asking a deeper question:What happens to a people when they forget where they've come from?Drawing on cultural experience and biblical ideas around remembrance, this episode explores:• Why forgetting is never neutral• The difference between memory and grievance• How ritual carries identity across generations• Why parades can be understood as commemoration rather than triumphalism• The connection between memory, belonging and place“We don't march because we hate.We march because we remember.”About the SeriesScripture, Sash & Memory explores the connections between:• The Protestant Reformation• The Glorious Revolution• The development of Loyal Orders• The rise of marching bands in Northern IrelandAnd how these influences continue to shape culture, identity and tradition today.Listen / FollowAvailable on all podcast platformsSubscribe for more episodesTurn on notifications so you don't miss the next part of the series

What does it take to rule as an equal in a man's world? How did a quiet, devout queen help reshape Britain's monarchy forever?All this month, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is exploring the Restoration monarchs. In this episode, she focuses on Queen Mary II, England's first and only joint sovereign, who ruled alongside her husband William of Orange. Far from being a passive partner, Mary was politically astute, deeply devout, and a formidable cultural influence, playing a pivotal role in forging Britain's constitutional monarchy.

Historiansplaining: A historian tells you why everything you know is wrong
The riots, protests, and boycotts that broke out in North America in the wake of the Stamp Act were only one part of the mass crisis that beset Great Britain in the 1760s, as the discontented poor and middle classes rallied behind the ideals of liberty and freedom of speech, and around “radical Whig” politicians who challenged the power of the Crown and the London oligarchy – none more so than the infamous provocateur, satirist, and “rake,” John Wilkes, who ignited popular passions in London and the colonies and nearly burned down the ruling Whig establishment. We examine a key specimen of a tiny glass cufflink jewel inscribed with the incendiary slogan, “Wilkes and Liberty,” which was rececntly discovered in an abandoned town in North Carolina, and which has touched off a wave of similar discoveries, revealing the importance of small, almost unnoticeable objects in the spread of discontent and radical rhetoric across the Atlantic in the years before the American Revolution.

THE GLORIOUS REVOLUTION Colleague Jonathan Healey. James II, a Catholic, succeeds Charles II despite the earlier "Exclusion Crisis" which birthed the Whig and Tory parties. Initially surviving due to Tory support, Jamesalienates his allies by promoting Catholics to power. The birth of a Catholic male heir triggers panic, prompting Whigsand Tories to invite the Protestant William of Orange to intervene. William lands on November 5, 1688, and James IIflees rather than face trial. William and Mary become joint monarchs, securing a Protestant succession and parliamentary sovereignty in what is known as the Glorious Revolution. NUMBER 81700 WINDSOR CASTLE

If there is any glimmer of hope in the UK (and it is a faint one), it is that a new government in 2029 may just be able to reverse the catastrophic economic, demographic and cultural trends that the country is enduring. In order to do so, they'll have to navigate the treacherous world of the Westminster Civil Service. No one understands that world better than the former Former Chief of Staff to the Chancellor of the Exchequer and former Chief of Staff to the Chairman of the Conservative Party, James Price.Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.Read The Spectator Australia here.

We follow how a remote landmass on the far western fringe of Europe became the home of a lasting Gaelic civilization and a major center of classical and Christian knowledge, before coming under attack by Viking raiders and Anglo-Norman invaders. We examine the English Crown's shifting and increasingly desperate strategies to control Ireland, and the long battle over control of land and religion before Ireland was finally subjected to Protestant domination following the Glorious Revolution.

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: James II, Catholicism, and the Glorious Revolution James II, brother of Charles II, converted to Catholicism, leading to a movement to exclude him from the throne during Charles's reign. Becoming king in 1685, James II alienated his natural supporters, the Tories, by favoring Catholics. The birth of his Catholic son solidified the fears of a perpetual Catholic monarchy. In 1688, Whigs and Tories invited William of Orange to intervene, leading to James II fleeing and the peaceful Glorious Revolution. 1649

From the political and religious complexities of the era, the support from Louis XIV of France, to the unexpected factors like cattle disease that influenced key battles, plus the enduring symbolism of Bonnie Prince Charlie.MORE:The Glencoe Massacre https://open.spotify.com/episode/3UvmUFsPlQQx4G3xTiWxG5?si=6lRJTidnSBaA9lsstJS-IALouis XIV and his Mistresseshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/2bvIaoji5oM65WbU5bFESwPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

Send us a textAs Americans celebrate Independence Day, I'm here once again to remind them of the debt American independence owes to English literature and history. Stick in the mud. Today, we look at a genuinely weird poem that allegorizes the Glorious Revolution of 1688 (an event that would lay the groundwork for the American Revolution nearly a century later) as a cup of tea. So, pour yourself one -- milk first or last, doesn't matter to me -- and enjoy the show!Text of "Panacea": https://quod.lib.umich.edu/e/eebo/A63046.0001.001/1:7?rgn=div1;view=fulltextSupport the showPlease like, subscribe, and rate the podcast on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, or wherever you listen.

The joint British monarchy of William (1650-1702) and Mary II (1662-1694) is known as the Glorious Revolution of 1688, in which King James II (1633-1701) was overthrown in favor of his Protestant daughter Mary and her husband, the Dutch Prince William of Orange—causing upheavals throughout the English empire, including North America.

William of Orange effectively took over from his father in law, the unpopular James the Second of England, and ruled with his wife Mary, the first and only time a couple were crowned co-monarchs in English history
In this episode of The Wandering Pilgrims, we embark on a journey through the life of Matthew Henry, a pastor and scholar whose Bible commentary continues to inspire believers around the world. Born in 1662, Henry's life unfolded against a backdrop of religious upheaval and personal trials, shaping his profound legacy in Christian history.We begin in Broad Oak, a farmhouse that straddles the border of Wales and England, where Matthew was born into a family of faith. His father, Philip Henry, faced persecution for his beliefs, leading to a unique upbringing that fostered Matthew's intellectual and spiritual growth. By the age of three, he was reading the Bible, and by nine, he was already writing Latin. His education continued at Thomas Doolittle's Nonconformist Academy, where he honed his theological skills amidst the challenges of nonconformity.As we explore Matthew's pastoral journey, we highlight his dedication to preaching and community-building in Chester, where he led his congregation through the tumult of the times. His personal life was marked by both joy and tragedy, losing his first wife and yet finding strength in his faith and second marriage. The episode details his prolific writing, including the monumental Exposition of the Old and New Testaments, which remains a cornerstone for many Christians today.We also examine the historical context of Matthew's life, from the Restoration of Charles II to the Glorious Revolution, and how these events influenced his ministry. His teachings on prayer and scriptural understanding resonate with the faithful, encouraging earnest devotion and deep study.Join us as we reflect on Matthew Henry's enduring impact on Christian thought and practice, and consider how his life continues to inspire us to live faithfully in our own journeys.If you would like to learn more about Matthew Henry and his works, we've included some recommended readings below.

**Warning: This episode contains explicit descriptions of sexual acts and the use of historic terminology that does not align with current usage**The first widespread discussion of sodomy in public discourse came in the aftermath of the so-called ‘Glorious Revolution' that saw the Roman Catholic King James II deposed in favour of his Protestant daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange.Almost immediately, English satirists began to spread explicit charges of sodomy against William - whose male 'favourites' were no secret - and alleging his desire for other men was the cause of the royal couple's infertility. Perhaps for the first time, satirical publications and pamphlets began circulating explicit accusations against William, becoming a catalyst for persecution.Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to historian Jack Beesley about his research into the early origins of homosexual identity and its subsequent discrimination in the court of William III.Related episodes:The Private Life of James VI & I: https://podfollow.com/not-just-the-tudors/episode/a406821154013f01e83da0fcd95f40878547caf5/viewSame-Sex Marriages in Renaissance Rome: https://podfollow.com/not-just-the-tudors/episode/708bce3dd88f4fd948c8beb606d131d9fc734576/viewPresented by Professor Susannah Lipscomb.

The events that led to the joint monarchy of William and Mary in 1689 have long been known as the Glorious Revolution, in which King James II was overthrown in favour of his Protestant daughter Mary and her husband, the Dutch Prince William of Orange. But not so glorious or bloodless were the ensuing years of devastating violence wreaked across Scotland and Ireland which have largely been ignored in histories.Professor Suzannah Lipscomb finds out more from Professor Ted Vallance, author of The Glorious Revolution: 1688 - Britain's Fight for Liberty.Presented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

In 1688 the Stuart King James II was ousted from the throne by his daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange, in what is called the Glorious Revolution. This momentous change would set in motion decades of unrest across the British Isles, as the supporters of James Stuart; his son the ‘Old Pretender' James, and his flamboyant grandson, ‘Bonnie Prince Charlie', both exiled in France and Italy, sought to restore them to the throne of Britain. In Scotland especially, the hereditary home of the Stuarts, rebellion was constantly brewing amongst the Scottish clans, where demands by the English king for them to bend the knee would result in the bloody massacre of Glencoe…finally, with time passing and the momentum of the Stuart cause fading, the Young Pretender; Bonnie Prince Charlie, took up his family's struggle and sailed to Scotland to reclaim his father's crown….the storm clouds of revolt were brewing. What would be Scotland's fate, and indeed that of Britain? In today's episode, William and Anita are joined by historian Jacqueline Riding to discuss the Jacobites and their fight to restore the Stuarts to the British throne, in the build up to the cataclysmic Battle of Culloden… To fill out the survey: survey.empirepoduk.com To buy William's book: https://coles-books.co.uk/the-golden-road-by-william-dalrymple-signed-edition Twitter: @Empirepoduk Email: empirepoduk@gmail.com Goalhangerpodcasts.com Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett Producer: Callum Hill Exec Producer: Neil Fearn Learn more about your ad choices.

With seismic antecedents such as the Glorious Revolution in England and the American War of Independence, what was it about the French Revolution that saw it become arguably the most important episode in all early modern political history? And what unique combination of factors converged to unleash this colossal, world-shaking event; the paradigmatic example of a people trying to reshape their society? By the start of the 18th century, France was the largest kingdom in continental Europe, and a powerhouse of agriculture, trade, and military might. But it was also a multilayered and very complex machine, still heavily founded in its ancient hierarchies and the dominion of the ancien régime. The King, Louis XVI, though in no way despotic and in some ways an enlightened man, did not have the strength to fix the creaking system he had inherited. And while the 18th century was an age of enormous dynamism, energy and modernity into which a new discourse of the self had been born, it was also a time of terrible violence in France, long before the revolution. The nation had also been running up stratospheric debts ever since the 1720s, and the poverty of the monarchy - the plight of every 18th century monarch - was exacerbated by its efforts to fund the American War against the British. Finally, the unravelling situation came to a head when, in 1786, Louis XVI was confronted with the news that the looming financial abyss had finally engulfed France, triggering a series of events that, from 1787, would unleash the doom-spiral of the revolution, and lead to his eventual overthrow… Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss the causes behind the French Revolution. From the innovative, enlightened culture of 18th century France, set beside its enduringly hierarchical and deeply violent society, the amiable but feeble Louis XVI with his clueless finance ministers, to the American Revolution, financial cataclysms, and angry mobs. _______ *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York. *The Rest Is History LIVE at the Royal Albert Hall* Tom and Dominic, accompanied by a live orchestra, take a deep dive into the lives and times of two of history's greatest composers: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven.

Mario Tores is a man you probably have never heard of. He is 45 years old and a janitor at Columbia University. When he decided to try to protect the building he cleaned, he was taken captive. One of those who made Tores a captive was a 40 year old trust fund kid named James Carlson. At Columbia, a quarter of protesters were not students. We are all this janitor in the eyes of the Glorious Revolution. A former member of The PussyCat Dolls, Jessica Sutta, is speaking out because just like Mr. Tores, she was taken captive by the lies of the Covid “vaccines”.
