One year after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University, Joe Pags dedicates the hour to remembering the man, his message and the legacy he left behind. Pags recalls exactly where he was when the news broke—interviewing Ben Carson when the world learned Charlie had died—and reflects on why he believes anyone who truly took the time to listen to Charlie knew exactly where he stood and the kind of man he was. Pags takes us to Utah Valley University as Charlie is remembered one year later and shares Vice President JD Vance's words about his friend. Then the show reaches back into the archives for something special: Pags' 2022 interview with Charlie Kirk, recorded when The College Scam had just been released. Charlie was warning about what he saw happening on college campuses even then, while also talking about the family and faith that would become such an important part of his legacy.

What does America look like from inside the Oval Office, and what do you learn about leadership when you've actually run for President of the United States? I don't normally talk politics on this show, but when I got the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Ben Carson, I couldn't pass it up. This isn't a political conversation. It's a rare opportunity to hear from someone who's run for President and had a front-row seat inside the most powerful office in the world. Dr. Ben Carson has occupied seats very few human beings ever will. He went from growing up in poverty in Detroit to becoming one of the most accomplished neurosurgeons in the world, then stepped into an entirely different arena and ran for President of the United States. What surprised me in this conversation is that he told me he never really wanted to be President. He entered the race because he was deeply concerned about where he believed the country was heading and felt called to do whatever he could to make a difference. Along the way, he competed against Donald Trump, developed a friendship with him, and ultimately went on to serve as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. Today, Dr. Carson gives us a rare look at what he saw from inside presidential politics and the highest levels of our government. I wanted to know what happens when the cameras turn off. What is it actually like inside an administration? What surprised him about being that close to the Oval Office? Dr. Carson talks about the competing personalities and opinions inside government, the intense energy required at that level of leadership, and why disagreement behind closed doors can actually be healthy. We also have a fascinating conversation about President Trump, including what Dr. Carson told him while they were still competing for the Republican nomination, why he believed Trump was going to become President, and what he observed working alongside him once he was in office. Whatever your politics are, this is a perspective very few people can give you firsthand. But what struck me most is the temperament Dr. Carson brought into an arena that rewards conflict. We talk about how divided the country has become and why he believes we've lost the ability to disagree with someone without treating them like an enemy. He shares why leadership requires listening to different viewpoints, why a "my way or the highway" mentality doesn't work in a country as diverse as ours, and why our ability to see each other as neighbors again may matter more than any political label. We also get into home ownership, the expectations of the next generation, AI, parenting in a rapidly changing technological world, and what he believes families can do instead of waiting for Washington to solve their problems. And then you hear the story behind the man. This calm, measured former presidential candidate was once an angry teenager who tried to stab another young man. The knife struck a metal belt buckle and broke. Dr. Carson went home, locked himself in a room, turned to God, and experienced a transformation that changed his entire future. As he told me, God took the knife out of the hand of an angry teenager and replaced it with a scalpel that would save lives. When you hear about his mother, his childhood, his faith, his journey into medicine, his run for President, and eventually his time inside a presidential administration, you begin to understand why his perspective on leadership is so different. Key Takeaways: Why Dr. Carson says he entered the presidential race even though he didn't really want to become President What happened between Dr. Carson and Donald Trump while they were competing for the Republican nomination What surprised him after getting an inside view of a presidential administration What he learned about leadership, disagreement, and decision making at the highest levels of government Why he believes Americans must relearn how to disagree without treating each other as enemies His concerns about AI, parenting, home ownership, and the future facing the next generation How faith transformed him from an angry teenager who nearly took a life into a surgeon who spent his career saving them There are very few people who can tell you what it's like to operate on the human brain, run for President, serve in a presidential cabinet, and sit inside the rooms where decisions affecting millions of people are made. Dr. Carson can. Regardless of your politics, this conversation is about something bigger: leadership, faith, character, family, and what each of us can do to build a better future.

Dr. Carson graduated from Yale University and earned his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School. For nearly 30 years, Dr. Carson served as Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center, a position he assumed when he was just 33 years old, becoming the youngest major division director in the hospital's history. In 1987, he successfully performed the first separation of craniopagus twins conjoined at the back of the head. He also performed the first fully successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins in 1997 in South Africa.

July 12, 2026 - Sunday AM Sermon This episode is a sermon-length reflection on trusting God, using vivid real-world examples and biblical teaching to show how faith should shape every area of life. Hiram opens with familiar figures—Ben Carson, Chesley Sullenberger, Nick Saban and educator Jaime Escalante—to illustrate why experience earns trust, then challenges listeners to place the same confidence in God, who is eternal and never fails. The episode walks through seven specific areas where Christians should entrust themselves to God: 1) leave vengeance to God and trust Him to repay the wicked (Deuteronomy 32, Romans 12); 2) pray and rely on God for daily provision, illustrated by Exodus 16 and Matthew 6; 3) believe that God works all things together for good and adopt a "rearview" theology that sees God's purposes in hindsight (Romans 8:28, Joseph and David examples); 4) trust in God's full forgiveness through the New Covenant (Hebrews 8, Jeremiah 31, 1 John); 5) allow God to direct your path by trusting rather than leaning on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5–6); 6) have confidence that God will preserve the church (Daniel 2, Matthew 16); and 7) rest in God's promise to save you in the end (Isaiah, 1 John, 2 Timothy). Along the way the sermon emphasizes practical implications—stop seeking personal revenge, pray the Lord's Prayer for daily bread, give generously because God owns all, trade anxiety for peace by trusting God's providence, and respond in repentance and baptism if you haven't yet obeyed the gospel (Acts 2:38). Scriptural references are woven throughout to support each point, and the message closes with an invitation to respond and an encouragement that God's faithful, providential care allows believers to live a life of relief and assurance. Duration 34:47
Send us Fan MailIn this final episode of the season, there are three parts which support the concluding chapter of The Christian Past That Wasn't. The first part is former Secretary of Health and Human Services Ben Carson's false telling of Ben Franklin's call to prayer during the Constitutional Convention in 1787. Carson said the delegates stopped and prayed after Franklin called them to prayer. They didn't. This is the kind of folklore which I correct in The Christian Past That Wasn't. The second part of this segment is a brief analysis of Al Mohler's admission that the Constitution doesn't acknowledge any Christian foundation. This significant admission came in a short video this week. Even though Mohler is honest about one aspect of the Constitution, he considers the lack of explicit Christian language to be an error on the part of the founders. Here is where he is wrong and I respond to Al Mohler's opposition to the American Constitution. The third and final part tracks with the Conclusion of The Christian Past That Wasn't. I discuss separation of church and state in light of the golden rule and the moral teachings of Christ. I end the podcast where I started it by examining the issue of posting copies of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms. I come down on the side that posting the Decalogue is an imposition of one faith over others and thus an improper establishment of religion. As such it violates the golden rule. If I don't want someone to impose their faith on me, I shouldn't do that to others. In the words of Texas state legislator John Bryant from the podcast, "That's not fair, and that's not American."

What did four presidents carved into a mountain actually believe about God, and what does Dr. Ben Carson say they'd make of America today? Jim Scudder heads to Mount Rushmore with historian Andrew Phipps for a special conversation with Dr. Carson as America's 250th birthday arrives.
As America marks its 250th anniversary, there's no better time to ask: what has kept this nation standing? Elizabeth Carlyle's answer is simple — prayer. Elizabeth learned that at age eleven, when her father suffered a heart attack and was rushed away in an ambulance. She rode her bike to the end of the street, watched it go by, and prayed. He survived. And fifty years later, she still prays every time she hears a siren. That moment became the foundation of a life built on the belief that prayer isn't a last resort — it's the first and most powerful thing you can do. Elizabeth is an author, attorney, and Bible study teacher, and the CEO of First Freedom Art Company — the stewards of Arnold Freeberg's famous painting of George Washington, Prayer at Valley Forge. It's also the cover of her book Americans Who Pray: Uniting a Nation in Faith and Freedom, released in honor of America's 250th anniversary. In this conversation, she shares the stories behind gathering prayers from founding fathers, presidents, and current leaders — including Ben Carson, Tim Tebow, and June Hunt — and what she learned about prayer along the way. This is an encouraging conversation on the importance of prayer in the Christian life and in the history of our country as we celebrate America's 250th anniversary.

Join us for our annual patriotic musical with special guest Dr. Ben Carson.
Was America's founding a genuinely Christian project, or has that idea been read backward into history by people who want it to be true? Dr. Ben Carson, famed neurosurgeon, former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and founder of the American Cornerstone Institute, joins Joshua Lewis to make the case that the founders' faith wasn't incidental to the American project, but was foundational to it.ABOUT THE EPISODE:Carson walks through the well-known stories: George Washington's providential survival during the French and Indian War, Benjamin Franklin's call to prayer at the Constitutional Convention, John Adams' conviction that the Constitution was built for "a moral and religious people." Carson recounts these as evidence that the founders understood their rights as God-given rather than state-granted and argues this conviction is what allowed the young nation to move as fast as it did.But this episode tackles some of the harder questions about America's Christian roots. In fact, many Christians today are wrestling with where the line falls between honoring faith's role in government and slipping into theonomy or Christian nationalism (using the Bible not just to inform conviction, but to enforce practice). Josh and Dr. Carson walk through the difficult cases, including Thomas Jefferson's private letters calling Paul "the first corruptor" of Christ's doctrine, the Treaty of Tripoli's explicit statement that the U.S. government is "not in any sense founded on the Christian religion," and the uncomfortable reality that some founders held views far messier than the Sunday-school version of American history.What emerges is a conversation about the difference between a Christian moral framework shaping a leader's conscience and a Christian theocracy shaping a nation's laws and why the founders, having fled state-enforced religion in Europe, were careful to avoid recreating it here. Dr. Carson also addresses the founders' inconsistencies head-on, including slavery, and how a constitution "inspired" by Christian conviction could coexist with such a profound moral failure.If you've ever felt caught between two unsatisfying camps with "America was a secular Enlightenment experiment" on one side, and "America should be governed by biblical law" on the other, this conversation gives you a third way to think about it: historically honest, theologically grounded, and avoidant to both extremes.0:00 – Introduction0:51 – Built on Faith Children's Book1:00 – Washington's Providence Stories4:34 – Christianity Twisted by Marxism6:09 – Founders and Deism Debate8:00 – Declaration vs Constitution11:06 – Theonomy and Theocracy12:47 – Christian Ethics and Lawmaking19:12 – Washington's Christian Faith20:50 – Jefferson's Mixed Beliefs26:49 – Benjamin Franklin's Faith33:39 – Treaty of Tripoli Question35:32 – James Madison and Constitution38:05 – Christian Political Involvement RESOURCES MENTIONED:- Dr. Ben Carson's children's book, Built on Faith (co-authored with Kirk Parrish): https://www.amazon.com/Built-Faith-Ben-Carson/dp/1967002711- American Cornerstone Institute: https://americancornerstone.org- Andrew Wilson, Remaking the World: How 1776 Created the Post-Christian West: https://www.crossway.org/books/remaking-the-world-hcj/- Carl Trueman, The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: https://www.crossway.org/books/rise-triumph-modern-self-hcj/- Treaty of Tripoli (1797), Article 11 (full text): https://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/bar1796t.aspSubscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

How would you expect life to go for a child born in poverty to a teenage mother who didn't get past the third grade? Famed neurosurgeon and politician Dr. Ben Carson is here to share his story and how the habit of reading, instilled by his mother, changed the course of his life. In this episode, Dr. Carson explains the psychological and practical effects that frequent, habitual reading can have on the minds and lives of the next generation and shows that you don't have to be born into a wealthy family to make a positive impact on the world.
Little Patriots are not born; they are made. Believing that younger generations are being taught to loathe America's founding ideals, Dr. Ben Carson is working to undo the harm. Through his American Cornerstone Institute, the former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and renowned neurosurgeon aims to restore faith, family devotion, and patriotism to the forefront of education. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith, Dr. Carson discusses his organization's new animated movie, Star Spangled Adventure, designed to teach children the vital history missing from modern classrooms. He also shares the powerful story of his own upbringing by a single mother with a third-grade education. Through her sacrifice and prayers for wisdom, she raised a rocket scientist and a brain surgeon—a true "only in America" success story. Learn more about your ad choices.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 13th of June, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Acts 22:15: ”For you will be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard.” That was the word through Ananias, to the great man of God, Paul the Apostle. Then we go to 1 Timothy 3:7: ”Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside…” You and I have been called to be witnesses for Jesus Christ, just as the Lord called Paul, the Apostle. “Tell the world about the soon-coming king.” You don't have to be a theologian, you don't have to go to university and study theology. No, in the area that the Lord has placed you. I want to tell you about three men who have really impacted my life. The first one was a dairy farmer from America, Demos Shakarian. He was a very successful dairy farmer. One of the biggest in the world in his day, and yet the Lord called him to be a witness to men, and he started the Full Gospel Businessmen Fellowship, which went right around the world, amongst all denominations and drew many men to Jesus Christ. He was a good witness for the Lord.The second one that really impacted my life was Robert Le Tourneau. Robert Le Tourneau was a very simple man. He was a mechanic, he used his hands, and he had a brilliant mind. He started the earth-moving business, which eventually sold out to Caterpillar. He used to tithe 90% of his income and keep 10% for himself. What an impact he made on the world, especially in the mission field.Then the third man is Dr Ben Carson, the first neurosurgeon to separate two seven-month-old baby boys from Germany, the Binders, and both lived. Normally one would die but in his case, he had a team of over seventy people, and he performed nothing less than a miracle, but what a witness for Jesus Christ!Today, let's use what we've got, and where God put us, to preach the Gospel, and you will be surprised how God will use you.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.

It's Thursday, April 16th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus 1 million Lebanese displaced by Middle East conflict The recent war in the Middle East between the U.S., Israel, and Iran has displaced over one million people in Lebanon. Israel has bombed targets in Lebanon associated with Hezbollah, a Muslim militant group backed by Iran. Christians make up a third of Lebanon's population. Sadly, Israel's bombardments there have lead to the deaths of over 2,000 people, including Christians. Michel Constantin with the Catholic Near East Welfare Agency said, “Towns and villages in which Christians live in south Lebanon have also been violently attacked without any warning. Israel has bombed areas that have nothing to do with Hezbollah.” United States brokers peace deal between Lebanon and Israel The United States brokered peace talks between Lebanon and Israel in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday. It's the first time the two countries have held diplomatic talks in decades. Lebanon and Israel agreed to work towards ending the influence of Hezbollah, the terrorist group. Listen to comments from U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. RUBIO: “This is a historic opportunity. We understand we're working against decades of history and complexities that have led us to this unique moment. “Some of you are shouting questions about ceasefire. This is a lot more than just about that. This is about bringing a permanent end to 20 or 30 years of Hezbollah's influence in this part of the world.” Slow economic growth this year because of Middle East war The International Monetary Fund expects global economic growth to slow this year due to the war in the Middle East. The conflict is driving up energy prices and disrupting shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. The International Monetary Fund projects global growth to slow to 3.1 percent this year. That's down from its original forecast of 3.3 percent. 70% of Americans think taxes too high Yesterday was tax day in the United States. A new Fox News Poll found a record 70 percent of voters think their taxes are too high. That's up from 60 percent in 2025. Also, 75 percent of people see government spending as wasteful. That's up nearly 20 percentage points since 2025. The average single worker in the U.S. sends just under a third of their income to the government. That's according to a report by the Cato Institute. U.S. fertility rate down The U.S. fertility rate fell to a new low last year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The general fertility rate in 2025 was 53.1 births per 1,000 females aged 15 to 44. That's down one percent from the rate in 2024 and down 23 percent from 2007. The fertility rate for women in their 20s has dropped significantly. Meanwhile, the rates for women in their 30s and early 40s is growing. Hegseth and Rubio will read the Bible aloud Nearly 500 leaders from all spheres of influence are about to gather in Washington, D.C. to read the entire Bible aloud. The Museum of the Bible is hosting its “America Reads the Bible” event from April 19 to 25. Participants will read Scripture for 12 hours each day. Readers include Rev. Franklin Graham, Dr. Ben Carson, War Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Six governors and 20 members of Congress will also be reading the Bible aloud. The event's website says, “In honor of the 250th birthday of the United States, America Reads the Bible serves as a spiritual celebration of our nation's founding ideals and a call to rediscover the truth that still anchors us today.” Nehemiah 9:3 says, “And they stood up in their place and read from the Book of the Law of the LORD their God for one-fourth of the day; and, for another fourth, they confessed and worshiped the LORD their God.” Oklahoma principal risked life to stop school shooter An Oklahoma high school principal risked his life to stop a school shooter last week. The 20-year-old shooter opened fire inside the lobby of Pauls Valley High School last Tuesday afternoon. The principal, 60-year-old Kirk Moore, charged the shooter, tackling him to the ground. Another staff member helped disarm the gunman. Moore was the only person injured in the incident, suffering a shot to his leg. However, he is healthy and recovering after being hospitalized. He wrote in a statement last Friday, “I am grateful that my instincts and training, as well as God's hand, were available to me on Tuesday.” John 15:13 says, “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.” Today is the FINAL day to see “A Great Awakening” Christian film And finally, as the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, the word “liberty” is resurfacing in cultural debates, but for Sight & Sound President Joshua Enck, it carries a deeper meaning, inspiring the ministry's new film, “A Great Awakening,” reports The Christian Post. “On the Liberty Bell, it quotes Leviticus 25:10 which says, ‘Proclaim liberty throughout all the land and to all the inhabitants thereof.' Wnck, who also directed this film, said, “I want that liberty to ring out over this nation once again in the hearts of men and women.” The film centers on the unlikely friendship between 18th-century evangelist George Whitefield and Founding Father Benjamin Franklin, a deist. Whitefield, widely regarded as one of the most influential preachers of the Great Awakening, traveled thousands of miles on horseback throughout the American colonies. Enck said, “It was the first shared experience across the colonies. Eighty percent of colonists didn't just hear about Whitefield; they heard him preach. They were unified by something they could all believe in.” Remarkably, he spoke 18,000 times to 10 million people in person. One scene depicted in the film shows Whitefield preaching in a coal field in Bristol, England, drawing miners from underground. He wrote in his diary that he saw white streaks down their blackened cheeks from tears. The director explained, “They were a team. Franklin was the greatest promoter of the greatest event in American history. There were many preachers leading up to 1776, but there were none like Whitefield, and when you combined the power of his voice with Franklin's ability to get the word out, it unified the colonies.” According to Enck, before the political revolution came spiritual awakening. He noted, “Our tagline says it all: ‘Before the revolution, there was a revelation.'” In the film, Whitefield delivers a line that encapsulates Enck's understanding of biblical liberty: “Blood will be shed for the liberty you're talking about, but blood was already shed [by Jesus Christ] for the liberty.” He added, “This film doesn't shy away from the Gospel. We don't soft-shoe anything.” Rather than portraying historical figures as flawless icons, the film highlights their humanity and need for a Savior.
