## Resource

What if the biggest lie about America is the story we were taught about our own founding? In this episode of The John Lovell Show, John sits down with bestselling author Eric Metaxas to talk about his new book, Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World. Eric argues that the American Revolution was not merely a political rebellion or a product of Enlightenment ideals, but a deeply rooted biblical movement built on the belief that rights come from God, not government. John and Eric discuss the Christian character of the American Revolution, George Washington crossing the Delaware, the difference between the American Revolution and the French, Bolshevik, and Chinese revolutions, the forgotten heroes of 1776, and why Eric believes America is now facing its third existential crisis.
