U.S. government and society must be remade to conform with a 17th-century pact made by Protestant settlers to establish a Christian colony in America, Republican U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley said.

“This country was founded on a covenant, and I don’t mean primarily our Constitution — I mean something older than that,” Hawley said during the 2026 Duke K. McCall Leadership Lecture delivered April 16 at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Ky . . . 

That covenant, Hawley insisted, called the on colonists “to worship the Lord in the freedom of their consciences, to worship the Lord according to the dictates of Scripture. That, ladies and gentlemen, is what this country was founded on. We were founded as a godly commonwealth, and that is in our DNA.”

Most scholars of American history differ with Hawley’s view and see the Constitution and the Bill of Rights as the nation’s governing documents, not one man’s sermon.
