Confronting Historical Legacies: The Case of John C. Calhoun

What is the relationship between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution? Are these simply historical documents, or could they reflect something divinely inspired? In this conversation, Socrates in the City host Eric Metaxas sits down with Hillsdale College President Dr. Larry Arnn to explore the spiritual architecture of America’s founding in his book, The Founder’s Key. Drawing from his deep scholarship, Dr. Arnn illuminates how the bold creativity behind the American experiment was rooted in timeless truths—and how its carefully crafted separation of powers reflects both human humility and a reverence for divine order.
