In this conversation, Dan Hawk explores the history and theology behind Manifest Destiny—and why its legacy still shapes American identity today. Drawing a sharp connection between U.S. expansion narratives and the conquest themes of Scripture, Dan argues that confronting the painful truths of colonization, dispossession, and white supremacy is essential to justice and reconciliation. This episode invites listeners to rethink familiar national myths, tell the truth about the past, and consider how the church can become a more honest and healing presence in the present.
