The American Miracle: Was Our Nation Founded by Chance — or by Providence?

Peter Demos interviews Ralf Augstroze, executive producer of the docudrama The American Miracle, based on Michael Medved’s bestselling book. With dramatic reenactments and expert historical commentary, the film explores the miraculous events that shaped the founding of the United States — and what they reveal about God’s hand in history. From the French and Indian War to the miraculous fog at Long Island to Benjamin Franklin’s call for prayer at the Constitutional Convention, this episode uncovers the patterns that prove America’s story is no coincidence. More than a film about the past, The American Miracle challenges viewers to consider their role in the present — and the divine purpose behind the American experiment.
