The Faith Of George Washington

As Independence Day approaches, on this week’s episode, culture critic Joseph Holmes investigates the faith of our foremost founding father in two separate conversations. In the first part of the episode, he interviews Peter Lillback about his national bestselling book, “George Washington’s Sacred Fire,” in which the author makes a strong argument for the case that Washington was a committed Christian. In the second part, Joseph speaks with Diederik Hoogstraten, screenwriter of the new film “Young Washington,” which comes out this Friday.
