    The WallBuilders Show - Short-Sighted Votes And Lasting Values

    A single vote can reveal a whole worldview, and that’s where we start. After a listener shares raw post-election grief and a sobering passage from Hebrews 12, we talk honestly about the temptation to trade long-term biblical conviction for short-term financial relief. We challenge the “affordability first” mindset and ask what happens when Christians get the priorities backwards, especially on issues like abortion, marriage, and gender. We also dig into why these moral questions are not side issues at all. For us, they point straight to the deeper question: is truth objective, and do our rights come from God or from government? That foundation shapes everything from how a candidate governs to how big they think the state should be. We connect the dots to the American founding, limited government, and the responsibility of citizens to vote with clarity instead of frustration or “stage one thinking.” Then we shift into two practical Q&As: whether a US president can order an election audit (and why the Constitution puts election times, places, and manner primarily with the states), and how to make a biblical case for pastors to engage culture. We walk through a direct John 10 framework that contrasts a shepherd with a hireling when wolves threaten the flock, and we offer concrete ways to start that conversation in your church without turning it into a shouting match. If this helped you think more clearly about Christian civic engagement, share it with a friend, subscribe, and leave a review so more people can find it. What’s one issue you believe Christians should never trade away for comfort? Support the show

    The WallBuilders Show - Why Veterans Day Still Matters

    Veterans Day forces a deeper question than “Do I feel thankful?” It asks, “What am I willing to do with the freedom someone else protected?” We start by honoring every man and woman who put on the uniform, then push past surface level gratitude toward what Lincoln called increased devotion to the cause. Along the way, we untangle the difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day, and we trace the history from Armistice Day after World War I to the federal Veterans Day holiday we recognize today. Then we shift from remembrance to responsibility. If you’re a veteran, or you love someone who served, we talk about what a next mission can look like through civic engagement, leadership training, and defending the Constitution on the home front. We also give a clear eyed election analysis: why the results can look like a landslide while many races were actually narrow, how turnout changes everything, and why issues like voter ID can win even in places that elect Democratic leaders. We close by looking ahead to the next chapter in Congress, including what Jim Jordan brings as House Minority Leader: strategic thinking, strong communication, and the kind of backbone that doesn’t fold under pressure. If you care about faith and culture, constitutional government, voter integrity, and practical action, this conversation is built for you.

    Focus on the Family with Jim Daly - The Heart of a Warrior

    War veteran Chad Robichaux uses a story of nearly being captured by the Taliban in Afghanistan to make an important point: when we are at a critical juncture in our life, we need to recognize that fact and then make a move. He calls it being “on the X.” Chad goes on to share how he almost committed suicide while suffering PTSD, and encourages his audience to fight against suicidal thoughts. He concludes by describing how a mission to save his Afghan interpreter turned into a huge evacuation of anyone targeted by the Taliban after American forces left Afghanistan. Get "Saving Aziz" free with your gift. Healing Begins Here - Trauma has a way of lingering – not just in memory, but in the body, in patterns of thought, and sometimes even in the way we relate to God. And yet, what has shaped you does not have to define you. Get More Episode Resources Do you have a story or comment on how Focus on the Family impacted you or your family?
