This past Thursday, we gave thanks not just to the pilgrims for inspiring this holiday, but also for sowing the seeds of America to come.

As the early English settlers struggled to adapt to the new world, they experimented with a socialist-like communal society. However, they soon learned its flaws and suffered significant consequences.

Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host spoke to author, historian, and pastor Dr. Jerry Newcombe about the story of the Pilgrims and how their decision to embrace free-market principles eventually helped them survive.

The Executive Director Of The Providence Forum also discussed how faith inspired them to leave England and played a role in their early colony.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with author, historian, and pastor, Dr. Jerry Newcombe.
