In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Pastor Nate Wright and Dr. Jeffrey Ventrella explore the intricate relationship between American constitutionalism and Christianity. They ask the question: "Is the Constitution Dead?" They discuss the historical foundations of America, the role of religion in the founding, the impact of rationalism, and the current state of constitutionalism in a nation that has largely rejected its Christian roots. Dr. Ventrella emphasizes the importance of Christians engaging in cultural and institutional power to effect change, advocating for a long-term, incremental approach to renewal and transformation.

OK, friends. I know we said the How to Win the World series was over, but P Nate was so inspired by it that he decided to do a sermon series on it. So, while Elder P and P Nate are busy with their 5-century plan on how to take back Canada for Christ, we thought you'd enjoy P Nate sermons.
