In 1630, a Puritan leader named John Winthrop stepped to the pulpit and delivered what would later be called, “the greatest sermon of the millennium”. His inspiring words brought a fresh vision to early colonists for what a new world in the wilds of America could be. 350 years later, the wilds of America had become the greatest nation in the world. But, locked in a Cold War and facing an economic crisis, it was a nation in need of a fresh vision of what it could be. Into this moment in history, Winthrop’s sermon continued to preach. The words of the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony inspired another governor who would cite Winthrop’s sermon on his way to the presidency. Hear how the greatest sermon of the millennium inspired one of America’s greatest presidents on this special episode of Faith and Liberty Rediscovered with Alan Crippen.

A Man of the People in the Cause of Freedom
In order for liberty’s cause to succeed, it couldn’t merely be the vision of delegates and statesmen. It needed to be the people’s vision, the people’s cause. Without the spirit, grit, and determination of the common man, the fight for freedom would surely have failed. On this special episode of Faith and Liberty Rediscovered, we’ll see how one fascinating figure with a household name used his voice to remind the common man that he was equally precious in the sight of God as the King of England. This man of the people inspired more than a beverage, he inspired a Revolution!

The Freedom Prophet - Richard Allen
When titles like Prophet and Apostle are frequently ascribed, the person in view is someone of great stature and influence. Such is the case with the 18th-century minister and Civil Rights leader, Richard Allen. Born into bondage as a slave, Allen came to know Christ and found ultimate freedom in the gospel. Remarkably, his faith-filled life made such a profound impact on his “master” that he allowed Allen to purchase his freedom and live as a doubly free man. Allen used his newfound liberty to minister the gospel and fight for racial equality. His voice for Christ and for societal change still speaks volumes today. In this way, ascriptions like Prophet and Apostle are perhaps apropos, after all.
The eminence of Richard Allen and his story is nearly impossible to overstate. Join us as we explore the life and influence of this Black founding prophet of Faith and Liberty on this episode of Faith and Liberty Rediscovered!
