  • The WallBuilders Show - How Local History And Public Prayer Can Renew America - with David Kubal

    A Bronze Star for writing a prayer sounds like a punchline, but it’s tied to one of the most gripping faith and American history stories we’ve ever told. We start with a behind-the-scenes recap from Washington, DC, then walk straight into the General Patton prayer card account during the Battle of the Bulge: 250,000 soldiers urged to pray for weather, commanders stunned by “miraculous” clear skies, and a chaplain publicly honored because the prayer was answered. Whether you love military history, leadership lessons, or stories where faith collides with real-world stakes, this one will stay with you.

    Then we’re joined by Dave Kubal from Intercessors for America (IFAPray.org), and the conversation shifts from national moments to local mission. Dave explains how they’re helping believers research the spiritual heritage of their own county, with evidence that God has moved in every county across America. We talk about the wave of 500+ grassroots events already happening and why the 250th anniversary is the perfect catalyst for community rededication, public prayer, and a deeper kind of patriotism that doesn’t stop at fireworks.

    We also dig into the founding era record that many people never hear: government leaders repeatedly issued formal prayer proclamations, often with serious theological depth. That history raises a simple challenge for our generation: if earlier Americans marked key moments with humility and prayer, what would it look like for families, churches, counties, and states to do that again right now? If you’ve been looking for something concrete you can do, this gives you a next step.
