What did America’s Founders actually mean by “religious liberty”?Ryan Helfenbein of Liberty University joins Eric to discuss the Christian influences on America’s founding, the Constitution, religious liberty, and why he believes the modern understanding of religious pluralism differs significantly from the framework held by many early American leaders.Eric and Ryan also discuss the postwar changes that reshaped the public role of religion, what Ryan calls “evangelical Gnosticism,” why many churches became hesitant to engage political and cultural questions, and the relationship between Christian faith and public life.Earlier in the program, Rod Martin joins Eric to reflect on the approaching third anniversary of the October 7 attacks, the continuing debate over Israel and Gaza, and airline security following a recent violent incident involving a flight bound for Israel.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World📕: https://a.co/d/0ir3NlapTODAY'S SPONSORS:🪙 Grace Precious Metals: https://www.metaxasmetals.com/🛏️ MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/☀️ Chapter -- Honest, fast, and free Medicare plan guidance: https://askchapter.com/metaxas/🦅 Patriot Mobile -- America's ONLY Christian Conservative Wireless Provider: https://patriotmobile.com/partners/metaxas🏛️ Socrates in the City CRUISE: https://socratesinthecity.com/cruise/0:00 Eric Opens The Show4:24 Rod Martin Joins5:20 Three Years Since October 711:19 Iran, Israel And The Middle East13:32 Airline Security And The Flight Incident17:14 Ryan Helfenbein Joins19:06 What Did The Founders Mean By Religious Liberty?24:48 America’s Original Religious Liberty Framework28:25 Immigration, Secularism And Religious Pluralism34:02 “Evangelical Gnosticism” And Leaving Politics Behind40:33 Christianity, Public Life And “Loser Theology”44:32 Why Ryan Says Christians Must Understand Public Life- - -LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ericmetaxas#EricMetaxas #TheEricMetaxasShow #News #PoliticsChapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.
