Was America founded as a Christian nation – or a secular one? In this episode of Crosswalk Talk, historian and author Thomas S. Kidd explores what the Founders actually believed about Christianity, religious liberty, and the role of faith in public life. He explains the true meaning of separation of church and state, discusses the influence of the Great Awakening on the American Revolution, and addresses common myths about figures such as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. Kidd also shares why he believes religious liberty helped Christianity flourish in America and offers insights into the current state of faith in the United States.
