About this listen

Religious freedom in early America didn’t just inspire faith—it created empires. In this explosive episode, we expose how radical movements like the Millerites, Mormons, and Seventh-day Adventists didn’t just seek salvation—they built political machines, influenced laws, and laid the foundation for America’s expansionist hunger. These weren’t just spiritual awakenings; they were blueprints for domination, fueling the Manifest Destiny mindset that justified conquest, displacement, and empire-building.How did these uniquely American religions shape the nation’s future? And what does it mean when faith becomes a weapon for power? Buckle up—this is the untold story of how religion built America’s ambition, and the warning signs we can’t afford to ignore.
