During an interview with “Washington Watch,” social critic and senior fellow at the Oxford Center for Christian Apologetics Os Guinness explained what he sees as one of the biggest problems in America right now.

“The heart of America is freedom. You know, Saint Augustine says, “To understand a nation, you see what it loves supremely.” And there’s no question what America loves supremely is freedom. And yet there’s so much confusion today [about] what it is and there’s so much assault on what the Founders understood it to be. So we’re at a very significant moment,” Guinness told host Joseph Backholm.

” I think freedom of religion and conscience, freedom of speech and expression, and freedom of association and assembly — they are like light and air and water to the human body. The foundational freedoms without which we’re in trouble,” he continued.
