The Truth About America's Founding
Podcasts > The Josh Hammer Show
Friday, July 3, 2026
As America celebrates Independence Day, Josh Hammer takes a deep dive into the ideas and principles that gave birth to the greatest experiment in self-government the world has ever known. From the biblical concept of covenant to the influence of Judeo-Christian values on the Founding Fathers, Josh explores the spiritual, philosophical, and constitutional foundations that continue to define the American experiment.
Joining the show is Lee Habeeb, host of Our American Stories, for a fascinating conversation on the people, ideas, and moments that shaped our nation. Together, they discuss how biblical teaching, the lessons of history, and the wisdom of the Founders influenced America's commitment to liberty, limited government, individual responsibility, and the rule of law.
As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, Josh and Lee reflect on why understanding our nation's origins has never been more important—and why preserving the principles that made America exceptional remains one of the defining challenges of our time.
