  • The WallBuilders Show - Patriotism On The Rise - with Dr. Ben Carson

    A fighter wins under the lights and quotes John 3:16 to a massive audience. Another walks out after reading the Declaration of Independence in the Oval Office. Moments like that don’t just feel cinematic, they reveal something real about the cultural weather in America, and we dig into why it matters. 

    We start by reacting to a weekend packed with patriotic imagery in Washington, DC, and what it signals about the return of public confidence in country and in faith. From national anthem performances and historic backdrops to shout outs to the military and Reagan’s Flag Day message on “informed patriotism,” we talk through why these symbols still hit so hard and why the contrast with anti America messaging feels sharper than ever. We also connect the dots to what we’re hearing from international visitors who are shocked by everyday American freedoms and generosity, and what that gratitude can teach us about civic perspective. 

    Then Dr. Ben Carson joins us to focus on the long game: kids. We talk about his new K–5 book “Built on Faith,” why the faith of the Founding Fathers belongs in age appropriate patriotic education, and how constitutional history becomes sticky when it’s taught through pictures and stories. We also address the slavery narrative head on, arguing for honest history that includes the full record, including the people and movements that fought to end it. 

    If you care about civic literacy, biblical literacy, and raising the next generation with a grounded love of country, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review with the biggest lesson you think every kid should learn about America’s founding.
