Pastors, Power, And The American Founding - with Pastor Josh McPherson

Lives Fortune Sacred Honor And The People Behind The Declaration
A Declaration of Independence signature looks heroic from 250 years away. In real time, it can put a target on your back. We dig into what that kind of courage actually costs, why the signers weren’t instantly celebrated, and how a nation’s mem...
Texas Is Building Textbooks That Tell The Whole Story

The Courageous Church - with Bob Pearl

Civics Before Committee Power
What if we stopped pretending “anyone can lead” means “no one needs to know the basics”? We dig into a listener-driven idea with real constitutional teeth: you cannot add extra requirements to be elected to Congress beyond what the Constitution...

Revival is one of those words that can feel inspiring and vague at the same time, so we decided to get concrete. We talk about what revival actually looks like when you compare Scripture with American history and we challenge the popular idea t...
Flag Day Decoded - with Bill Federer
Flag Day isn’t a modern, made-up observance. It reaches back to a wartime decision on June 14, 1777, when the Second Continental Congress chose a national flag in the middle of the American Revolution. We walk through that origin story, why Fra...

America’s 250th birthday is more than a party date, it’s a stress test for our national memory. We ask a blunt question: what actually made the United States free, stable, and resilient, and why are so many cultural gatekeepers determined to te...
