Before the group of Puritan colonists left England for the New World in 1630, John Winthrop (1588-1649) delivered an inspirational final message filled with the hope for what America could become. The sermon is titled, ‘The Model Of Christian Charity,’ but is famous for the line, "City on a Hill." This line would go on to become popular in political discussions of the United States of America, however, in this sermon, it meant so much more than that. E287.
