The Shot Not Heard

from Legacy Living Media Hosted by Tom Sears

America is in a war. And most of the people on our side don't know it. Not a war fought on a battlefield. Not a war with weapons you can see. This is a war over the soul of America, over her identity, her history, and the foundation she was built on. And unlike every other war this nation has faced, this one was never declared.No shot heard round the world. No mobilization. Just the slow, quiet, patient transformation of American culture, through classrooms, courtrooms, seminaries, and newsrooms, over decades that most Americans were not watching. In Episode 1 of The Battle Is On series, Tom Sears opens sixteen weeks of programming drawn directly from his new book The Battle Is On: America's New Civil War. Today he tackles the question that sets up everything that follows: what exactly is a culture war, why is the invisible kind the most dangerous kind, and what are the three foundational questions whose answers determine whether this republic survives? This episode covers the shot not heard. The war nobody declared. The three questions that decide everything: where rights come from, what a human being is, and what holds a free society together. George Washington's Farewell Address. John Adams on the Constitution. And the promise of 2 Chronicles 7:14 that has not expired. This is not a program built on fear. It is built on clarity. And clarity is what this moment requires. The Battle Is On is available now at legacylivingmedia.com along with all programs, resources, and everything Legacy Living Media produces.
