There's no question that this upcoming election has created a lot of fear, chaos, and division across the country. Therefore, in today's episode we want to remind you that November 5th is not about personalities, but rather about policies that matter - policies that impact our everyday lives and issues of concern to all Americans including the economy, our border situation and the real threat of terrorism both here and abroad, a strong national defense, and of course issues important to people with sincerely held religious beliefs such as religious liberty, life, Israel, and more. We are in a significant moment in time and we believe God calls us to STAND for biblical truth and to be salt and light for today's generations! That being said, today's special guest is someone who has a word of hope and courage in the climate we find ourselves in.

On this episode of the podcast, host Amanda Head sits down with Dr. Ben Carson, the 17th Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, to explore the ongoing culture war levied against the American family. Head asks Dr. Carson about the stark contrasts between former President Donald Trump's Republican Convention in Milwaukee with Kamala Harris' upcoming Democrat Party Convention being held in downtown Chicago. Dr. Carson says that, “Kamala Harris will take full advantage of the fact that she's black, and that she's a woman, and will try to use just those demographic factors to garner voters, and that's sad.” Dr. Carson also speaks to the dangers of socialism and the achievements of Donald Trump, not just as an American president, but as a businessman too.As the founder of the American Cornerstone Institute, Dr. Carson shares his insights on the critical role of moral courage and faith in leadership, urging pastors and leaders alike to avoid becoming ‘woke' and stand up for their beliefs.

Ric Grenell, former acting Director of National Intelligence and Ambassador to Germany, joins Liberty & Justice with Matt Whitaker, Season 3, Episode 15.  Presented by American Cornerstone Institute.  Learn more about ACI at https://americancornerstone.org/  Watch every episode of Liberty & Justice at www.whitaker.tv. Ric Grenell is not your typical Republican. He is seen by many as the embodiment of the American First agenda through his bold approach as one of the nation's top diplomats and during his transformative service as the Acting Director of National Intelligence. Born in Michigan, Grenell went to Elementary school in Redwood City, California, and high school in Jenison, Michigan. He describes himself as an “imperfect follower of Christ,” who was driven into public service through his faith. He has worked for decades to advance conservative policies and candidates as a principled and consistent voice for the American people. Prior to becoming the longest serving U.S. political appointee at the United Nations, Ric served as a top advisor to San Diego Mayor Susan Golding. He has since gone on to become one of the most impactful diplomats in American history. As the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, Ric advanced President Trump's America First policies, facing down international foes like Iran and Hezbollah. Ric's effectiveness earned him the ire of some in the international political establishment and among European leftists, which he relished. It was also during this period that Ambassador Grenell was appointed by President Trump to spearhead the Administration's effort to decriminalize homosexuality across the globe. Ric was the Special Presidential Envoy for Serbia and Kosovo Peace Negotiations, where he was able to broker an historic Economic Normalization deal. His role in the effort earned him the Presidential Medal of Merits from Kosovo President Thaçi. At the request of President Trump in 2020, Ric served as the acting Director of National Intelligence. This appointment meant Ric became the first Senate-confirmed Cabinet member who was openly gay – a reality the media has tried to ignore. Grenell received a master's degree in Public Administration from Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government and his Bachelor's Degree in Government and Public Administration from Evangel College. He currently serves as a Senior fellow at Carnegie Mellon University's Institute for Politics and StrategyRic resides in Southern California with his partner, Matt, and their dog, Lola.Ric on Twitter @richardgrenellFix California on FacebookRic on Instagram Matthew G.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Benjamin S. Carson, Sr. M.D., one of America's principled leaders and a great patriot. The program begins with the words — "the perilous fight" penned by Francis Scott Key in the midst of a most difficult and pivotal moment in our nation's history when twenty British ships bombarded Fort McHenry from the Baltimore Harbor. It was on the morning of September 14, 1814 that Francis Scott Key wrote about the ramparts, and the land of the free and the home of the brave which inspired a nation and became a rallying victory call. Our conversation highlights Dr. Ben Carson's new book "The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family." “The perilous fight—those words arrest my attention whenever I place my right hand over my heart and face the flag at the playing of our national anthem. They are a reminder that America was born in a crucible of fire. Freedom was not given freely but had to be fought for and defended.” ~ Dr. Ben Carson Biography | Dr. Ben Carson In 1973, Ben Carson graduated from Yale University. He went on to receive his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School. At the age of 33, Dr. Carson became the chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, making him the youngest major division director in the hospital's history. This would be among an extensive list of outstanding firsts for Dr. Carson. Dr. Carson's accomplishments have earned him a place in medical history. He performed the first and only successful separation of craniopagus (Siamese) twins joined at the back of the head in 1987. He also performed the first fully successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins in 1997 in South Africa. In his career, Dr. Carson became a professor of neurosurgery, oncology, plastic surgery, and pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and directed pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center for over 29 years. In 2016, Dr. Carson accepted the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under the Trump administration.

President Trump and Dr. Carson went to Detroit recently to appeal to minority voters. Dr. Carson grew up in Detroit and knows that President Trump believes a rising tide lifts all boats. Recent number show President Trump polling around 20% which is up from 8%, Dr. Carson thinks this will continue to rise and the American people are not stupid. Dr. Carson believes America is too powerful militarily to submit to a one world government so the forces that want to control every aspect of our lives have to tear us apart from within. It is only the resolve of a united country that can stem the tide of a globalist agenda. Dr. Carson is prayerful and reflective when it comes to considering a Vice President or a cabinet nominee in a second Trump administration and has yet to make a decision should the opportunity arise. The U.S. debt will surpass and unfathomable $50 trillion dollars in 10 years as spending is out of control and we kick the can down the road to the next generation to pick up the tab. Russia and North Korea sign a partnership stronger than the one formed in the cold war. Signs that foreign leaders are not afraid to form adversarial relationships while the Biden administration continues to show weak leadership on all fronts.

The Perilous Fight equips us to understand: — The hard data behind the breakdown of the family and its effects on our society, including poverty, crime, and deteriorating education. — The core biblical beliefs that led our nation into unprecedented freedom and prosperity--and why abandoning those beliefs led to the social decline we see today. — The fresh ideas and public policy options that could reverse negative trends impacting the family while maintaining a balance between constitutional freedoms and governmental involvement.

We honor Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a special encore discussion on leadership, civil rights, and moving forward together. Acclaimed neurosurgeon and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson joins David to share his unique perspectives on race, community, faith, and equality in America. Dr. Carson reflects on our nation's progress since the civil rights movement while weighing in on today's challenges. He calls for common-ground solutions to issues like border policy, healthcare, and more. From uplifting personal stories to insightful commentary on respecting our differences, this powerful conversation provides inspiration to carry on Dr. King's legacy.TRANSCRIPTION (AI transcription software was sued to convert spoken language into written text)David: I'm honored to be joined this week by Dr. Ben Carson. Ben is a groundbreaking neurosurgeon who served as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from 2017 to 2021. You might recall he was also a candidate for president in the 2016 Republican primaries. Currently, he's the chairman of the American Cornerstone Institute and an author of several books, including his new and most timely book, Created Equal.Mr. Secretary, Dr. Carson. Welcome to the podcast.Ben: Thank you. I'm delighted to be with you in yourDavid: books gifted hands and created equal. You shared some of your humble beginnings and background arising from poverty in Detroit and Boston, including incidents of clear racism with threats to schooling, playing football and honors received.You also mentioned how you were able to get some surprising, mystical and extraordinary gifts. A note after falling asleep, traveling with your wife, Candy going 90 miles an hour in a car earlier in your life. Our dream helped you through a key test while at Yale. In addition, as well as the difficult surgeries and political tax on faith.Dr. Martin Luther King said, trouble will come upon you. Disappointment will rain on your door. Like a tidal wave. If you don't have a deep and patient faith. It ain't gonna make it. How important has faith been in your life? And how has it navigated you through such as these difficult situations into becoming the expert worldwide neurosurgeon that handled conjoined twins and other extraordinarily difficult situations?Ben: I would dare say that I couldn't do any of that without the incredible faith that has brought me through so many trials. I hearken back to The fact that I had a horrible temper and I would just go fly off the handle and want to seek revenge, harm people, regardless of the consequences. It was after such an incident where I tried to stab another teenager with a camping knife that I was locked in the bathroom and I was thinking about my life.I turned things around academically very significantly, but I knew I would never achieve my dream of becoming a doctor with a temper like that. I would end up in jail, reform school, or the grave, and I just said, Lord, I can't control my temper. And there was a Bible there, and I picked it up, and there were all these verses in the book of Proverbs about anger, and also about fools, and it all seemed like they were written about me.For three hours, I prayed and contemplated and read, and it dawned on me during that time, it was always about me, my, and I. Somebody did this to me, they took my thing, I want this. I said, if you learn how to step out of the center of the equation, let it be about somebody else. You won't be angry. That was the last day I had an angry outburst.And I recognized at that point, God was real. He was more than somebody you learned about in church. And it really changed my life. And I began to really depend on him at that point in time. And it's been something that has gotten me through so many trials. When I was a first year medical student.I did poorly on the first set of comprehensive exams, and I was sent to see my counselor who said, You seem like a very intelligent young man. I bet there's a lot you could do outside of medicine. He tried to convince me to drop out of medical school. He said I wasn't cut out for medicine, and I would just torment myself and everybody else, and they could help me get into another discipline.The only thing I'd wanted to do was be a doctor since I was eight years old. I started thinking, what kind of courses have you always done well in, and what kind of courses have you struggled in? And I realized I did very well in courses where I did a lot of reading, and I struggled in courses where I listened to a lot of boring lectures, because I don't get anything out of boring lectures.Nothing at all. And yet, there I was, six to eight hours a day, sitting in boring lectures. So I made an executive decision to skip the boring lectures and to spend that time reading. And the rest of medical school was a snap after that. And some years later when I was back at my medical school as the commencement speaker, I was looking for that counselor because I was going to tell him he wasn't cut out to be a counselor.Because so many people are just negative. They never seem to be able to figure out a positive thing to say.David: Thanks for sharing that positive, transformative experience due to your great faith. As you mentioned on life, Martin Luther King discussed the three dimensions of a complete life and the onward push for fulfillment, helping others and the upward reach for God.Dr. King preached loving your enemies with agape and finding what's good in your enemies and finding what's wrong with yourself on the road being judged by your content, your character, and not your skin color. He spoke about even in prison, finding out how much white jail guards made, and they should perhaps join his movement.You said that in America, we valued each individual as unique being in someone who can be a special perspective to the table so we can work together to come up with common sense solutions to problems and believe that we've progressed to a point where many African American businesses, political doctors, and other professionals trades.Where people are more open minded about each other and believe that people are indeed created equal Can you kindly comment on certain common sense solutions? That you have been involved with to address underserved communities that improve lives, as well as other key lessons learned from your career.Ben: Yeah, one of the things that has been very important to me is the whole concept of self sufficiency. And that was really the reason that I, Wanted to take the job as the secretary of housing and urban development. There were so many things that were built into the system that kept people dependent. I worked very hard to enhance and improve and expand programs that would lead to self sufficiency so that when people, for instance, made more money on the job.Instead of having to report that, so that your rent could go up, you would record it, but instead of the rent going up, the extra money could go into an escrow. And over the course of a few years, you might be able to accumulate enough for a down payment on your own house. And home ownership is the principal mechanism of wealth accumulation in this country.The average net worth of a renter is 5, 000. The average net worth of a homeowner is 200, 000. That's a 40 fold difference. And in many cases, we're talking about the same money that is used to either be squandered or to go into creating that nest egg. Those are the kinds of things that really make a difference in people's lives.And then we've worked very hard to create The Carson Scholars Fund, in which we recognize students from all backgrounds who achieve at the highest academic levels and also who care about other people. You have to do both. We give them rewards, including scholarships as early as the fourth grade.So that the other kids look at them, and instead of that old nerd, Wow, that kid has a scholarship. He's only in the fourth or the fifth grade. What the heck did he do? And a lot of teachers tell us that other kids start trying harder at that point. And then we also put in reading rooms, and that's absolutely critical.There's over 260 of them now. around the country, primarily in Title I schools, where a lot of kids come from homes with few or no books. They go to schools that don't have a budget of significance for libraries. Most kids are not likely to become readers, but you put these incredible rooms in the school with all kinds of fascinating books.The rooms are decorated frequently in a way that's consistent with the area where they're found. For instance, one that's near a NASA site is Decorate it like a space capsule. You look through one window, you see the Earth. Another one, you see the Moon. Another one, E. T. And the kids just love these places, and they get points for the number of books they read.And they can trade them in for prizes. But, in the beginning, they're interested in the prizes, but it doesn't take long before that begins to affect their academic achievement. And many studies have shown us that if a child is reading at grade level by grade three, it changes the trajectory of their lives.That's what it's really all about. We're made in the image of God. Tremendous potential, but it has to be directed correctly. IDavid: appreciate the thoughtful introspection. Turning to systematic racism, you stated by taking every incident of perceived racial discrimination and magnifying it, repeating it incessantly, the case for systematic racism is made.The guilt and shame is done to manipulate the public. Could you then please explain for our listeners as to why there are calls there for systematic racism? Black and minority victimization and critical race theory and related calls to defund rather than support the police?Ben: It really doesn't make a lot of sense to defund the police under any circumstances.But you take something like the George Floyd incident. It was repeated ince
