What if everything you thought you knew about America’s founding was incomplete?
As the United States prepares to celebrate its 250th anniversary, Elizabeth Farah sits down with bestselling author Eric Metaxas to discuss what may be his most important book yet: “Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World.”
Far more than a retelling of familiar events, Metaxas argues that America’s true origin story has been buried beneath decades of revisionism, leaving generations of Americans disconnected from the ideas that gave birth to the Republic.
Metaxas contends that the American Revolution cannot be understood apart from the Bible, the Founding Fathers’ Christian worldview, and their belief that liberty was not a human invention, but a gift from God. Drawing from years of research, he explains why the Revolution was far more than a political rebellion, why the founders saw themselves as heirs to the biblical covenant at Sinai, and why they believed America’s success depended on virtue, faith, and divine providence.
Together, Farah and Metaxas explore the remarkable stories that shaped the nation’s birth, from Benjamin Franklin’s transformation in London to Henry Knox’s astonishing mission to haul artillery from Fort Ticonderoga through the frozen wilderness, along with the courage, sacrifice, and leadership that made independence possible. They also examine the striking moral contrast between the American patriots and the British ruling class, arguing that character, conviction, and faith proved to be America’s greatest strategic advantage.
As America approaches its Semiquincentennial, this conversation serves as both a history lesson and a challenge. If future generations are to preserve the Republic, they must first understand how it was born, why it endured, and what made the United States unlike any nation that came before it.

Brain cancer breakthrough as new drug shows 'promising results'
A groundbreaking immunotherapy treatment could help push the deadliest form of brain cancer into remission, a study suggests.
Researchers in London and Canada have found that a new CAR-T cell therapy may eliminate aggressive glioblastoma tumours and lead to long-term disease survival.
It could be a major breakthrough in the fight against the currently incurable cancer, which affects 3,200 Britons per year and devastatingly kills 95 per cent of patients within just five years of diagnosis.
Scientists have spent decades searching for ways to manage glioblastoma but it has proved difficult because the disease spreads through the brain by sending tiny, thread-like extensions into healthy tissue.
Unlike many other cancers, it also cannot typically be fully removed with surgery and remaining cells often resist chemotherapy and radiotherapy, allowing the disease to thrive.
Now, however, teams at King's College London and McMaster University believe CAR-T therapy could be the answer.
Already available on the NHS, CAR-T is used to treat around 2,500 patients in Britain each year - often for blood cancers - and works by instructing a patient's own immune cells to recognise cancer cells in the body and destroy them.
In the new study, published in the journal Nature, scientists tested a new version of the treatment in animals with glioblastoma using models designed to mimic the human disease.

Strikingly, in two of the main experiments, the therapy completely eliminated tumours in 12 out of 13 mice treated.
The mice also remained tumour-free for longer than four months in one group, and for more than five months in another.
The scientists' method involved identifying a protein, named GPNMB, on glioblastoma and macrophages - immune cells that normally help defend the body from infection but are hijacked by cancer to resist treatment.
They then engineered the CAR-T therapy to recognise the protein, allowing them to attack both the tumour and the cells protecting it.
Sheila Singh, professor of neuro-oncology and neurosurgery at King's College London and McMaster University, and the study's lead author, said: 'Instead of treating glioblastoma as only a mass of cancer cells, we need to think of it as a connected tumour-immune ecosystem.
Glioblastoma affects 3,200 Britons per year and kills 95 per cent of patients within just five years of diagnosis. Labour politician Dame Tessa Jowell died from the disease in 2018
'Our approach targets both the tumour and the environment that allows it to thrive.
'By going beyond the cancer cells alone, we are also targeting immune cells that help shield the tumour from treatment.'
Although the treatment has not yet been tested on humans, authors say their results demonstrated 'strong preclinical efficacy'. This could open the door for the therapy to one day be used for human treatment if any future trials are successful.
Most glioblastoma patients currently live on average for between 12-18 months, and charity Brain Tumour Research say there have been no advances on a cure for two decades.
CAR-T therapy, meanwhile, is typically used for treating children and adults with leukaemia and for some adults with lymphoma. Both leukaemia and lymphoma are forms of blood cancer.
The process involves collecting white blood cells from a patient's immune system, which the body uses to help fight disease. The cells are then genetically modified to recognise proteins found on cancer cells before being put back into the bloodstream.
The study's co-author Shan Grewal, from McMaster University, said their method of attacking the disease with the CAR-T therapy differs from most previous approaches which focused on killing cancer cells alone.
This is because the new treatment attacks two parts of the disease at once: the tumour itself and the immune cells that help it evade the body's defences.
He said: 'Our work suggests we may also need to dismantle the immune support system that helps glioblastoma survive.'
The use of CAR-T therapy in the trial is part of a growing drive to investigate how effective the treatment can be against brain tumours.

I'm a hospital consultant and missed my own prostate cancer. These are the signs you MUST not ignore

Glioblastoma is the most common type of cancerous brain tumour in adults and killed Labour politician Dame Tessa Jowell in 2018. The Wanted singer Tom Parker also died following an 18-month battle with the disease in March 2022.
Symptoms of brain tumours include persistent or worsening headaches, seizures, feeling sick or drowsy and suffering with memory problems.
Other signs can also include feeling weak on one side of the body or having new problems with vision or speech.
Anyone experiencing persistent or unusual symptoms should speak to their GP.
Professor Singh concluded: 'Only through collaboration with scientists across the world and with clinicians can we tackle this devastating disease.
'I've seen first-hand through my work as a neurosurgeon the impact glioblastoma has on patients and their family members and I am committed to developing new treatments to improve outcomes for those affected by brain cancer.'
