A neighboring property can look like “just real estate” until it becomes a direct challenge to your mission. We open Good News Friday with a major update from Patriot Academy’s campus in Constitution City, Texas and then pivot into the kind of story you can’t ignore: a high-stakes effort to stop a dangerous group from buying the 47 acres right next door, including 40 newly built cottages, and what it takes to secure a contract before an auction changes everything.

We also zoom out to the bigger why. We talk about the Patriot Institute and why we see it as the most important work happening on the campus: training young adults with a biblical worldview, moral philosophy, apologetics, leadership, communication, debate, and real-world skills that translate into business, education, ministry, the arts, law enforcement, and public service. We even touch Washington, DC, where training and encouraging principled congressional staffers matters because “staff is policy” and the right people in the right rooms can steady leadership and protect communities.

Then we get practical with the deadline. We share how cottage sponsorships helped pull the property from auction, why 24 cottages are already sponsored, and why 16 still need sponsors before the August 31 close. If you care about Christian civic leadership, constitutional education, religious liberty, and local culture battles that shape the future, you’ll feel the urgency and the hope in this conversation.

Hiii GGB :) Burnout isn't new—even Elijah experienced it.

In this episode, we unpack 1 Kings 19 and discover how God meets us in our exhaustion, speaks in the quiet, and restores us when we feel like giving up.

DON'T. GIVE. UP!!!!!!

As adults, we can navigate change pretty well, but younger kids are much more likely to struggle with it. As parents, we need to patiently listen to our children, answer their questions honestly, and shepherd them through the upheaval of change — and ultimately point them to the unchanging love and security of God.
