Giving Everything on the Altar of Liberty: Charlie at Dream City Church
Where this was said
America's Generosity and the American Trinity
At 28:50 · chapter starts 28:45
Kirk makes his affirmative case for American exceptionalism grounded in generosity rather than military power. America gives more to the poor, to the developing world, to humanitarian aid, and to Christian missions than any nation in history — 70% of global Christian missionary work from just 5% of the world's population. When disaster strikes anywhere on earth, the world calls America. Kirk then introduces the 'American Trinity' — the three phrases on the dollar bill: Liberty, In God We Trust, and E Pluribus Unum (out of many, one) — arguing these represent the civic corollary to the Christian Trinity and encode the nation's founding values in everyday commerce.
Kirk claims 70% of all global Christian mission work originates from Americans, who make up only 5% of the world's population.
