Every one of us has a past. Some of us just work harder to hide it.

Today, Mark and Amber Archer share how God redeemed two broken lives and built something neither of them thought was possible. From addiction and shame to a Christ-centered marriage and ministry, their story is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace. It's an honest conversation about brokenness, redemption, and the God who changes everything.

America's future won't be shaped by politicians alone—it will be shaped by the families raising the next generation.

Today, Kirk Cameron joins me to talk about America's 250th anniversary, the faith and courage of our founders, and why it's our responsibility to pass the truth on to our children. If we want America's next 250 years to look different, the work starts at home.

Most people never research the judges on their ballot—and that may be one of the biggest mistakes we make as voters. Today I'm joined by Judge Dave Larson for a timely conversation about judicial activism, parental rights, rising crime, and why the courts were never meant to become another political battlefield. We discuss the importance of an independent judiciary, the rule of law, and why every Christian should understand what's happening in our courts before heading to the voting booth.

America is celebrating 250 years of freedom—but are we quietly trading that freedom away?

Today I'm joined by historian Bill Federer for a conversation every American needs to hear. We unpack the rise of democratic socialism, why history is repeating itself, and how small groups of committed people can change the course of a nation. If we don't understand where these ideas come from, we'll never recognize them when they arrive at our doorstep.

Freedom isn't guaranteed. It's protected by people willing to defend it.

As we celebrate America's 250th birthday, I've been thinking about what kind of nation we're leaving our children. Today I'm breaking down two major Supreme Court rulings, what they mean for our families, and why the fight for truth, freedom, and biblical values is far from over. If we want to preserve this republic, we can't afford to sit on the sidelines. It's time for Christians to engage, pray, and courageously stand for the next generation.

What happens when Christians start chasing conspiracies instead of truth? Pastor Phil Hopper joins me for an honest conversation about Iran, the growing divide inside the conservative movement, the rise of the "woke right," and why biblical discernment matters now more than ever. We also talk about Israel, end times, and how followers of Christ can stand firm without living in fear. If you've been trying to make sense of the headlines, this episode will challenge and encourage you.
