From John Quincy Adams to FDR: The Bible's Legacy

Why do we often find ourselves pointing fingers rather than looking inwards? Join me, Jesse Cote, on the latest American Soul Podcast as we explore the vital practice of self-examination and personal accountability. Hear a touching prayer for guidance and protection, and learn why prioritizing faith and family is more crucial than ever. We reflect on a poignant quote by John Quincy Adams about duty and results and prepare to discuss Benjamin Rush's insights on education. Discover the wisdom shared by a former pastor and college professor on discerning good from bad influences, setting a thoughtful foundation for our future discussions on historical figures.

This episode uncovers the profound influence of the Bible on America's history and prosperity. We discuss the nation's shift from religious principles after World War II, spotlighting the pivotal Everson v. Board of Education case and its long-lasting impact on church-state separation. You'll hear reflections on how this shift correlates with modern societal and wartime challenges, underscored by a powerful quote from FDR. As we wrap up, I extend a heartfelt blessing to you and your families, looking forward to continuing these essential conversations in future episodes. Listen in and be inspired to acknowledge the guiding role of faith in our nation's journey.
