Liberty flows from God's word - this profound truth echoes through James Chapter 1 and America's founding documents alike. In this thought-provoking episode, we explore how the biblical concept of being "doers of the word, not merely hearers" applies both to our personal faith and our national character.Drawing from James' powerful teaching on perseverance through trials, we unpack what it truly means to practice "pure and undefiled religion" - bridling our tongues, caring for widows and orphans, and remaining unstained by the world. These spiritual disciplines don't just strengthen our individual walks with Christ; they form the foundation of liberty in a republic.The episode takes a fascinating historical turn as we examine early Supreme Court decisions that explicitly affirmed America's Christian foundation. The 1844 case Vidal versus Gerard's Executors reveals how the highest court unanimously declared that education without Christianity "is not valuable" and that establishing non-Christian schools was not even to be "presumed to exist in a Christian country." We also explore the Court's 1884 affirmation that our rights come "not by edicts of emperors or decrees of parliament or acts of congress, but by their Creator."This illuminating journey through scripture and American history challenges the modern narrative that seeks to separate our rights from their divine source. If the Declaration of Independence acknowledges that our rights come from God, how can we logically exclude God from our institutions?Whether you're struggling with personal trials, seeking to deepen your faith, or interested in understanding America's religious heritage, this episode provides powerful encouragement to align your priorities with eternal truths. Join us as we discover how drawing closer to God and helping others do the same remains the surest path to liberty, both personal and national.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

One highly visible example of French influence on the city of Philadelphia is the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, modeled on the Champs-Élysées. In "Salut!", Lynn Miller and Therese Dolan trace the fruitful, three-centuries-long relationship between the City of Brotherly Love and France. This detailed volume illustrates the effect of Huguenots settling in Philadelphia and 18-year-old William Penn visiting Paris, all the way up through more recent cultural offerings that have helped make the city the distinctive urban center it is today. "Salut!" provides a history of Philadelphia seen through a particular cultural lens. The authors chronicle the French influence during colonial and revolutionary times. They highlight the contributions of nineteenth-century French philanthropists, such as Stephen Girard and the Dupont family. And they showcase the city’s vibrant visual arts community featuring works from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Rodin Museum, the Barnes Foundation, and the Joan of Arc sculpture, as well as studies of artists Thomas Eakins, Mary Cassatt, and Henry Ossawa Tanner. There is also a profile of renowned Le Bec-Fin chef Georges Perrier, who made Philadelphia a renowned culinary destination in the twentieth century. Lynn Miller is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Temple University. Therese Dolan is Professor Emerita of Art History at Temple University's Tyler School of Art and Architecture.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. visited Philadelphia on August 3, 1965 to protest the discriminatory admission policies of Girard College. Photographs of that visit are now in the Print and Picture Collection of the Free Library of Philadelphia and they inspire our discussion today. Joining us is Mharlyn Merritt, an author and former Free Library employee who attended the march as a teenager; today’s podcast is based in part on her personal account. Kathy Haas, Director of Historical Resources at Girard College, will talk about how Stephen Girard connects to Toussaint Louverture and the importance of that connection to the Civil Rights narrative in the 1960s. And Professor Marlene Daut, specialist in early and 19th-century American and Caribbean literary and cultural studies at the University of Virginia, will discuss Toussaint Louverture’s role as leader of the only successful slave revolt against European powers in modern history.

In "The Founding Fortunes," historian Tom Shachtman reveals the ways in which a dozen notable Revolutionaries deeply affected the finances and birth of the new country while making and losing their fortunes. While history teaches that successful revolutions depend on participation by the common man, the establishment of a stable and independent United States first required wealthy colonials uniting to disrupt the very system that had enriched them, and then funding a very long war. While some fortunes were made during the war at the expense of the poor, many of the wealthy embraced the goal of obtaining for their poorer countrymen an unprecedented equality of opportunity, along with independence. In addition to nuanced views of the well-known wealthy such as Robert Morris and John Hancock, and of the less wealthy but influential Alexander Hamilton, "The Founding Fortunes" offers insight into the contributions of those often overlooked by popular history: Henry Laurens, the plantation owner who replaced Hancock as President of Congress; pioneering businessmen William Bingham, Jeremiah Wadsworth, and Stephen Girard; privateer magnate Elias Hasket Derby; and Hamilton’s successors at Treasury, Oliver Wolcott, Jr. and Albert Gallatin. Tom Shachtman has written or co-authored more than 35 books, as well as documentaries for ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and BBC, and has taught at New York University and lectured at Harvard, Stanford, Georgia Tech, the Smithsonian, and the Library of Congress.
