S5 Ep2- Dawn Mayer- School Board Candidate
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
Hi Friends,
Today, I talk with Dawn Mayer, school board candidate for Jefferson County. We talk about why she is running and the issues she feels are important for our kids.
As always, I end with some great American history, which will be about the original intent of our education system here. It might surprise you. I reference a letter written by Dr. Benjamin Rush, which I have linked below.
Thanks for listening,
God Bless!

S5 Ep1- A Warning
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
Wednesday Jan 17, 2024
Hi Friends,
Happy New Year to Everyone! 2024 is sure to be a year for the history books. I share a warning today, mostly for the Christian community, but also I have some words of encouragement. The warning has to do with the phrase "Christian Nationalism." I only touch on this broad subject, as there is so much that can be said about it and about the people who are pushing this narrative.
Please take a listen, as I bring in the viewpoint of our Founders and the Original Intent for this nation.
Thank you for listening,
God Bless!

S4- A Revolutionary Christmas
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Monday Dec 18, 2023
Hi Friends,
I love our history so I thought I would simply bring a couple of stories about our beginnings as a nation.
One is about the Christmases that President George Washington and his wife shared.
Fascinating information.
These stories are from the magazine published by The Epoch Times called, " American Essence."
I highly recommend subscribing to them.
Thank you for listening.
Merry Christmas!

S4 Ep 5- Israel and Our Founders
Friday Nov 03, 2023
Friday Nov 03, 2023
Hello Friends,
The horrific terror attack by Hamas in Israel on October 7 has unleashed world wide hatred of the Jewish people. Across the world, and here at home in our Universities, Anti-Israel demonstrators have taken to the streets, chased down and surrounded Jewish students, and even mobs in Russia were actively seeking Jewish people arriving at the airport in Dagestan. This is a historic hatred, one that goes back to Biblical days and is stirred up by ancient demonic strongholds. This topic is very complicated and detailed, but today I share some information that my friend, Arlene Bridges Samuels sent me. And of course, I turn to our Founding Fathers to hear what they had to say about the Jewish people. Please continue to pray for the situation in Israel and the Middle East, and our nation here as we may very well see similar attacks because of the open border policies of this regime.
Thanks for listening!
God Bless.

Hi Friends!
In today's episode I finally explain where I have been this year! I am also redirecting my focus for the podcast and I talk about what you can do to get involved. It is vital that Christians step up and speak out for truth!
The link for Give Him 15 and the history of "Command the Foreword" is below.
For today's history, I quoted from the book, "The Know Your Bill of Rights Book," by Sean Patrick. I highly recommend you get this and study it.

S3 Ep6- The Local School Board
Thursday Apr 14, 2022
Thursday Apr 14, 2022
Hi Friends,
Today, I bring to you the ideas of 3 local school board candidates who spoke at a meet-n-greet last week, here in Jefferson County, TN.
Early voting started here yesterday and the main primary election day is May 3. Even in rural counties, who you vote for can really make a difference to your community, so, get informed about your candidates and go vote!
Local elections ABSOLUTELY Matter!
As always, I end with some great American History!
Thanks for listening!
God Bless!
