Dawn and bestie, Ryan Ripple, take on the easy, non-controversial subject of Protestant Christianity in America. As your history books have told you, the earliest colonial settlers came seeking religious freedom, what few discuss is why these denominations were considered 'fringe' back in Europe. Walk with Dawn and Ryan down the holy road from the Shakers of the Revolutionary War, to the Prosperity Gospel of MAGA - and find yourself falling in love with Amish all over again. ---SILF's (Sources I'd Like to F*ck)Book - AMERICA'S RELIGIOUS HISTORY Faith, Politics, and the Shaping of a Nation by Thomas S.
