In Part 2 of our Thanksgiving bonus series, Blake and Jack pick up the story with the Pilgrims themselves—the Separatist congregation from Scrooby who fled England, suffered betrayals, survived storms, endured heartbreak, and ultimately crossed the Atlantic in one of history’s most remarkable journeys of faith.

In this episode, we trace their escape attempts from England, their difficult 11-year stay in Leiden, the economic and cultural pressures they faced, and the providential chain of events that drove them to sail for the New World, from the disastrous Speedwell, to the treacherous Mayflower crossing, to the first contacts with the Wampanoag, Squanto’s astonishing backstory, the devastating first winter, and finally the feast that would one day inspire Thanksgiving....including a totally true and not dramatized version of how Turkey got involved.

If you want to understand Thanksgiving—not the simplified version you learned in elementary school, but the providential and theologically rich version—this episode is for you.
