Was King Solomon a wise ruler, a savvy trader, or just history’s first brand-builder? In this bonus episode, we unpack the Solomon story—gold-covered Temples, suspiciously good PR, and zero outside sources. From trade routes to tall tales, we ask: how much of Solomon’s legacy was historical... and how much was just really good marketing? #HistoryPodcast #Solomon #BibleHistory #AncientIsrael #TempleOfJerusalem #InfluencerOrigins #BiblicalHistory #WisdomOrSpin

History of the Papacy

King Solomon: The Original Influencer?

In the early nineteenth century, a stretch of upstate New York became one of the most spiritually charged regions in American history. Known as the Burned Over District, this frontier landscape was shaped by relentless revivals, bold preachers, and a growing belief that individuals could choose salvation and reshape society. In this episode of the History of the Papacy Podcast, Steve Guerra is joined by historian John Fagant of the Buffalo Presidential Center (https://www.buffalopresidentialcenter.org) to explore how the Second Great Awakening transformed western New York into a proving ground for religious innovation. At the center of the story is Charles Grandison Finney, whose revival campaigns challenged older ideas of predestination and emphasized free will, moral responsibility, and action. The conversation traces how revival culture spilled beyond churches into abolitionism, women’s rights, education reform, and other movements that continue to shape American public life. What began as a regional religious phenomenon became a national turning point in how Americans understood faith, authority, and reform. #HistoryOfThePapacy #BurnedOverDistrict #SecondGreatAwakening #AmericanReligiousHistory #ChurchHistory #BuffaloHistory #UpstateNewYork #ReligiousReform

Catholic immigration reshaped the early United States long before Ellis Island. This episode follows the people pulled into the new nation through shifting borders, and the millions pushed across the Atlantic by famine, poverty, political upheaval, and limited opportunity. From the French traders of the Old Northwest to Mexican Tejanos, from German radicals to Irish famine survivors, we explore how faith, identity, and movement transformed a rapidly expanding country. #HistoryPodcast #CatholicHistory #USHistory #IrishImmigration #GermanImmigration #TexasHistory #EarlyAmerica #PapacyPodcast
