  • The WallBuilders Show - Iran’s Theocracy And The Ballot Box

    Headlines about Iran can feel like a blur of missiles, ministers, and moving targets—until you connect the dots between what leaders believe and what nations do. We dive into how Shiite end-times theology influences Iran’s pursuit of power, why “the great Satan” rhetoric matters for strategy, and how surgical strikes against military and clerical leadership could open a narrow window for change. When ideology prizes escalation, containment looks different—and so do the choices free nations face.

    Back home, we unpack a Texas primary night that says a lot about where voters want guardrails. Prop 10’s blowout against Sharia law becomes a pivot point to discuss the deeper role of worldview in public life. We then break down key races across Arkansas, North Carolina, and Texas, contrasting a steady voting record with a lack of fight, and a fighter’s zeal with heavy baggage. Add a polished progressive pastor with strong media chops, and you get a masterclass in electability: narrative, competence, and character colliding in real time.

    The throughline is power you can use today. Primaries are where leverage lives, with lower turnout and higher impact per vote. We share practical ways to research candidates, compare records, and build simple voter guides for your church and neighborhood. If you want better choices in November, start months earlier—clarify your values, study the field, and bring two friends with you to the polls. Subscribe, share this episode with someone who needs a nudge to vote in the primary, and leave a review telling us which race you’ll track most closely this year.

  • Focus on the Family with Jim Daly - Overcoming Anxiety in Your Family, Faith and Life (Part 2 of 2)

    Jason and Tori Benham describe the debilitating impact anxiety can have on our health, emotions, and faith. They define anxiety as “projected powerlessness” and believe it’s a form of spiritual warfare. The Benhams offer a 3-part strategy of “recognize” the source of anxiety, “renounce” the lies you’re tempted to believe, and “replace” the lies with God’s truth.

  • Bridge Church Fredericksburg - That You May Know Truth | Guest Speaker Reagan Green
    This week, we were honored to welcome Reagan Green from Patriot Academy as our guest speaker. His message, titled “So That You May Know Truth,” challenged us to consider what it truly means to know and stand in truth.
    In a culture filled with competing voices and shifting foundations, this message calls us back to what is unchanging. Truth is not something we create or redefine—it is something we discover, receive, and live out. When we anchor ourselves in God’s Word, we gain clarity, conviction, and confidence to walk faithfully in every season.
    We pray this message strengthens your faith and encourages you to pursue truth with humility and courage.
