The Fall, the Founding, and the Future of American Democracy: An Online Conversation with Tracy McKenzie

What did America’s founders believe about human nature? How might a deeper understanding of their perspective shape the way we think about our current and future challenges to democracy?

Join us Friday, August 19 at 1:30 pm ET, as we talk with Dr. Tracy McKenzie, professor of history at Wheaton College and author of the award-winning We the Fallen People: The Founders and the Future of American Democracy, to take a close look at the nature of American democracy and what it means for the future. We’ll discuss the view of human nature that was shared by America’s founding fathers, the implications of its abandonment, and explore the tension of fallen human beings entrusted with self-governance. This conversation of America’s history can help us see the present with fresh insight as we consider how Christians and the Church play a role in the public and political life of the country.
