A Great Awakening is getting people into theaters and then into conversations they didn’t expect to have: Who was George Whitefield, why did Benjamin Franklin respect him, and how did spiritual ideas shape early American public life? We talk through the wave of listener feedback, including the kind that makes us smile most, when someone realizes they “know a lot about history” because they’ve been quietly learning and sharing it for years. 

Then we give the honest review many of you asked for. When a film is based on real events, we’re not looking for every line to be a perfect transcript, but we do care about tone and about the big claims that stick in the audience’s mind. We highlight what the movie gets impressively right, including moments drawn from real Constitutional Convention debates and Franklin’s powerful call to prayer. We also slow down on the controversial moment where Franklin is labeled a deist, walking through what the primary source actually says and why that label gets abused in modern takes on the Founding Fathers. 

Finally, we zoom out to the bigger cultural shift we’re sensing: a growing hunger for better stories, deeper faith, and leaders with principle. That’s why it meant so much to participate in America Reads The Bible in Washington, DC and to see national leaders publicly read Scripture. If you care about Christian history, the Great Awakening, the founding of America, and where the culture is heading next, you’ll find encouragement and practical next steps here.
