In this episode, I open my journal and explore what the Founding Fathers actually believed about God, religion, freedom, and government—and why so many people today misunderstand their views. We look at the real historical context behind church and state, the idea of religious liberty, and the debate over whether America was founded as a “Christian nation.”

This isn’t a lecture—this is me sharing what I’ve come to learn while digging into history, the founders’ writings, and the cultural world they lived in.

We’ll talk about:

• What the founders believed about God and religion
• What separation of church and state really meant (and what it didn’t)
• How thinkers like Roger Williams shaped the American idea of liberty
• Why the founders disagreed—and what that teaches us today
