Mary chats with Paul Scharf of Friends of Israel Ministry about the Pilgrims, and the heart of a pilgrim. The Bible refers to pilgrims and sojourners as those who knew they were strangers in a strange land, just passing through. Touching the world lightly. In this fast-paced culture of constant chatter and visual distraction, it has become more rare to find those Christians who truly are not conformed to this world, or at least seeking to be influenced by it less and less. And we are told to seek first the kingdom and its righteousness above all. Today we discuss Psalm 107, often referred to as the Pilgrims’ Psalm – not that they see themselves in it, but their experiences were reflected in these verses. The layout is such that those who find themselves wandering, imprisoned, afflicted, or just weathering a storm will find comfort and encouragement. Those who came ashore at Plymouth Rock were directed to this Psalm by Governor William Bradford, and Christians have found similar solace in every generation. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come; ’tis grace that’s brought me safe thus far, and grace t’will lead me home.

Many evolutionists argue you can’t use the Bible when you’re doing science because that’s religion. Well, then they can’t use their naturalistic ideas either because that’s religion!

You see, it’s not science vs. religion. It’s religion vs. religion! All evolutionists reject the Bible as the starting point for truth and instead come to the evidence with their own ideas. And for many, these ideas include naturalism and the belief that there’s no supernatural.

They apply these unverifiable assumptions and call it “science.” But there’s nothing about science that says it must be done from a secular (and secular means anti-God), religious perspective!

Tired of hearing America is beyond repair? We make a grounded case for renewal—rooted in first principles, legal clarity, and a fuller telling of our national story. With Mike Berry from First Liberty, we unpack how recent Supreme Court victories have reopened space for faith and conscience in public life, including schools, and why that matters for culture as much as law. When rights are secured in the real world—teachers protected, students free to express belief, communities able to build moral formation—confidence rises and civic duty starts to make sense again.

We also confront a hard question: how do you recruit young people to defend a country they’re taught to hate? The answer isn’t spin or nostalgia. It’s honest history—the good, the bad, and the ugly—paired with the founders’ radical design that places sovereignty with the people and limits government power. That framework doesn’t make us perfect, but it uniquely equips us to correct course through peaceful means. Think Declaration of Independence, constitutional processes, separation of powers, and real elections that let us alter what’s broken and abolish what never worked.

From classrooms to chaplaincy to family tables, there’s a hunger for truth over ideology. We talk about practical steps for rebuilding civic memory, compare free societies with closed regimes, and apply a simple test—are people trying to get in or out?—to cut through noise. The takeaway is clear: teach the full story, protect liberty, and invite the next generation to serve something worthy. That’s how you restore faith in America and keep the American spirit alive.
