We Stumbled Into Savannah's Hidden Faith History | Palm Trees to Icebergs Ep. 9

We drove down a street some call the most beautiful in America, then discovered that St. Simons Island and Savannah sit at the start of a faith story we never saw coming. From Fort Frederica and the Wesley brothers to George Whitefield's orphanage, which is still operating today, this stop became one of the biggest surprises of our whole trip. In this episode of Palm Trees to Icebergs, Quinton and Gennie travel from St. Simons Island to Savannah, Georgia, and share a few lighthouse-sized laughs along the way. 📍 In this episode: Fort Frederica and Christ Church, Frederica (St. Simons Island) Watching "A Great Awakening" on a friend's recommendation Bethesda Academy and George Whitefield Reynolds Square and Whitefield Square Skidaway Island State Park Leopold's Ice Cream Jones Street Tybee Island Fort Pulaski Florence Martus, Savannah's "Waving Girl" ⏱ CHAPTERS 00:00 The most beautiful street in America [00:25] St. Simons Island and Fort Frederica [01:05]The Wesleys and Christ Church, Frederica [01:59] A movie, and the Whitefield connection [02:31] Bethesda: the orphanage that's still going [03:18] Camping at Skidaway Island State Park [03:33] Savannah's squares, Leopold's and Jones Street [04:58] Tybee Island: Gennie vs. the lighthouse [05:24] Fort Pulaski [06:11] The Waving Girl [06:58] What's next: Charleston ▶ Start from the beginning of the journey: [PLAYLIST LINK: Palm Trees to Icebergs] Palm Trees to Icebergs follows our 2,800-mile journey from Key West, Florida, to Twillingate, Newfoundland, where we hope to see icebergs. 🌐 More stories and stops: RambleQuest.com Exploring God's creation, one story at a time. #PalmTreesToIcebergs #Savannah #RambleQuest
