A Nation Consecrated: The Constitutional Era and First Presidency
Episode Description: The Constitutional Convention of 1787 was failing — delegates were walking out in disgust — until Benjamin Franklin called the room to prayer. Days later, they finished writing the most stable governing document in human history. Two years later, George Washington's first inauguration included seven distinct religious elements still echoed in every inauguration since. And for decades afterward, the U.S. Capitol building hosted the largest church service in America, every single Sunday, with Thomas Jefferson in the pews. This is the founding era you weren't taught.
Scripture: James 1:5; Psalm 127:1; 2 Chronicles 7:14
