What if the three deepest foundations of the United States didn’t come from Enlightenment philosophy… but from Scripture?
In this talk, Jamie Winship shares a striking insight from Eric Raush’s book Cross-Purposes: the founding of America as a true liberal democracy rested on three principles that can only be fully discovered in the Bible:
No Fear – A society and government that refuses to operate by fear or rule through fear
Jesus as the Paradigm for Every Citizen – Not as a religious requirement, but as the model human: self-emptying love, serving instead of being served, loving enemies
Forgiveness as the Norm – A culture where restoration and reconciliation are the goal, not retribution and revenge
250 years is the average lifespan of empires. As America marks this milestone, Jamie asks the hard question: Where are the believers modeling these three things today—in our personal lives, our justice systems, our politics, and our relationships?
This is both a diagnosis and an invitation. The turnaround doesn’t start in Washington. It starts in our own hearts, then in our homes, small groups, and neighborhoods.
Which of these three principles feels most missing in your own life right now?
