    Lt. Gen. William “Jerry” Boykin: What Makes America Worth Fighting For? - Lessons Learned from a Retired 3-Star General on the Liberty We Inherited & the Legacy We're Responsible to Protect, Ep. 312

    As America recently marked its 250th anniversary, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with Lt. Gen. (Ret.) William "Jerry" Boykin, a 36-year Army veteran, original member of Delta Force, former commander of both Delta Force and Army Special Forces, and former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, for a conversation on what freedom truly costs and who's responsible to carry it forward. General Boykin reflects on his calling into military service, leadership lessons forged in some of the most high-stakes special operations in modern U.S. history, and the invisible wounds such PTSD, survivor's guilt, hopelessness, and moral injury that so many veterans carry home. The conversation turns candid as he shares what kept his faith anchored after witnessing real darkness, and what it means to be a warrior in God's Kingdom, not just on the battlefield. Now serving as Executive Vice President of the Family Research Council and continuing his ministry as an ordained pastor, Boykin speaks to a possible Great Awakening stirring across America and why he believes it will be sustained not by politics, but by strong marriages and Christ-centered homes. He closes with a direct charge to the next generation of fathers, mothers, pastors, and leaders on what to remember for such a time as this. It's a rare, unguarded look at where courage, conviction, and faith intersect from a man who has spent his life defending freedom on two fronts: physical and spiritual.   Links: Family Research Council: https://www.frc.org/#gsc.tab=0 Find Out More About General Boykin: https://www.frc.org/biography/william-boykin#gsc.tab=0 Pick Up a Copy of General Boykin’s Book, Never Surrender: Never Surrender: A Soldier's Journey to the Crossroads of Faith and Freedom: Jerry Boykin, Lynn Vinc… Find Clinically Excellent, Distinctively Christian Care & Counsel Today: Find Trusted Therapists - Christian Care Connect Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

    Kirk Cameron: Who's Discipling Your Children? - Biblical Truth, Cultural Influence, Parenting, & Raising Children with Purpose, Ep. 311

    In this episode of The Built Different Podcast, Dr. Zach Clinton is joined by his father, Dr. Tim Clinton, president of the American Association of Christian Counselors, for a conversation with actor, author, and outspoken advocate for faith and family, Kirk Cameron. Together they unpack the cultural battle underway for the hearts and minds of the next generation, from the messaging embedded in children's entertainment and education, to Kirk's own national library book tour and the pushback he encountered along the way. Kirk shares why he decided the church can't just complain about culture but must create something better, discussing his new family-centered television show built to give parents trustworthy, biblically grounded content. The conversation turns practical as Kirk and Dr. Clinton talk through the shift from a play-based to a phone-based childhood, what it actually looks like to rescue kids from a corrupted culture inside the home, and the two or three things children need most from their parents to develop real character, faith, and resilience. It's a candid, hope-filled charge to parents, grandparents, and mentors that culture may be loud, but a parent who speaks truth and shows up with intentionality remains one of the most powerful forces shaping the next generation. Kirk closes with what gives him hope for the families choosing to lead with courage in this moment.   Links: Visit Kirk’s Website: Home | Kirk Cameron | USA Stream Iggy & Mr. Kirk on Brave+: https://bravebooks.us/pages/brave-plus Watch the Kirk Cameron Show: The Kirk Cameron Show Pick Up Your Copy of Born to Be Brave: https://shorturl.at/3ScrZ Find Clinically Excellent, Distinctively Christian Care & Counsel Today: Find Trusted Therapists - Christian Care Connect Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

    Navy SEAL Jason Redman: The Overcome Mindset - Resilience, Leadership, Marriage & Crushing Adversity, Ep. 310

    The question isn't whether adversity will come. The question is: Who will you become when it does? In this week’s powerful conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with retired Navy SEAL Lieutenant, Jason Redman, to explore what it truly means to overcome adversity. After surviving a devastating ambush in Iraq that left him shot eight times, Jason discovered that his greatest battle wasn't on the battlefield…it was the one that followed during recovery. Together, they discuss the "Overcome Mindset," resilience, leadership, discipline, marriage, faith, and why every person will eventually face a "life ambush." From the lessons of Navy SEAL training and combat to the famous handwritten sign on his hospital door that inspired millions, Jason shares practical wisdom on choosing courage over comfort, discipline over motivation, hope over despair, and faith over fear. Whether you're navigating grief, trauma, failure, anxiety, betrayal, or life's unexpected setbacks, this conversation is a powerful reminder that adversity doesn't have to define your story…but your response to it will.   Links: Visit Jason’s Webiste: https://jasonredman.com/ Pick Up a Copy of one of Jason’s Best-Selling Books: https://jasonredman.com/books/ Read More About the Sign on the Door: https://jasonredman.com/about/sign-on-the-door/ Asking for help is hard.

    Danny Gokey: Winning the War in Your Mind - Scrupulosity, Anxiety, and What Happens When Faith & OCD Collide, Ep. 309

    What do you do when your world falls apart… but life keeps moving forward anyway? In this deeply personal and hope-filled conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with Grammy-nominated and Dove Award–winning artist Danny Gokey to talk about grief, resilience, faith, redemption, and the healing power of hope. From navigating the heartbreaking loss of his first wife just weeks before appearing on American Idol, to becoming one of Christian music’s most impactful voices, Danny shares how God met him in the middle of pain and slowly rebuilt his heart, purpose, and future. Together, they unpack what it looks like to trust God when life doesn’t make sense, how suffering can deepen our faith instead of destroying it, the purpose behind songs like Tell Your Heart to Beat Again and Haven’t Seen It Yet, and the powerful moments Danny is witnessing on the Hope Nights Tour across America. They also dive into the important topic of scrupulosity, what can happen when OCD and faith collide, and how fear, shame, perfectionism, and religious anxiety can distort our understanding of God’s character, grace, and love. If you’ve ever wrestled with intrusive thoughts, condemnation, grief, disappointment, heartbreak, or uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that God is still writing your story, and sometimes the very thing that nearly broke you becomes the platform through which He brings hope, healing, freedom, and encouragement to others.   Links: Check Out Danny’s Website Here: https://www.dannygokey.com/ Go See Danny on Tour: https://www.dannygokey.com/tour Listen to Danny’s Music: https://www.dannygokey.com/music BrainMD Supplements: https://shorturl.at/rGXwh Struggling with your mental health?

    Eddie Penney: UNAFRAID - SEAL Team 6, PTSD, Spiritual Warfare, Freedom, and the True Cost of Courage, Ep. 308

    In this powerful Fourth of July special celebrating America's 250th anniversary, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with former Marine, Navy SEAL, and SEAL Team 6 Tier One Operator Eddie Penney for one of the most raw and unforgettable conversations ever featured on Built Different. After serving twenty years on the front lines of America's fight against terrorism, Eddie witnessed unimaginable evil, carried the weight of life-and-death decisions, lost brothers in combat, and returned home searching for peace in all the wrong places. Together, Zach and Eddie explore the psychology of combat, moral injury, PTSD, identity beyond performance, biblical masculinity, spiritual warfare, and the difficult road of reintegration. Eddie candidly shares how alcohol, pornography, pills, and achievement could never satisfy the deepest longings of his soul until one simple question: "What do you want?", began a journey that ultimately led him to surrender everything to Christ. Whether you're a veteran, first responder, husband, father, or simply someone wrestling with your own battles, this conversation is a compelling reminder that you're never too far gone, freedom always comes at a cost, and the greatest battle you'll ever fight may not be on a battlefield but within your own heart.   Links: Visit the Unafraid Website: https://unafraid.org/connect/ Follow Eddie on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/eddie.penney/?hl=en Purchase Eddie’s Book, Unafraid: https://shorturl.at/LOJI0 Find Clinically Excellent, Distinctively Christian Care & Counsel Today: https://christiancareconnect.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

    In one of the most honest and heartfelt conversations yet on the Built Different podcast, Hall of Fame wide receiver and three-time Super Bowl champion Michael Irvin opens up about the highs of fame, the lows of addiction and brokenness, and the grace of God that changed everything.

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, former NFL punter, Super Bowl champion, and 2x NFL’s ‘Fittest Man’, Steve Weatherford joins Dr. Zach Clinton to unpack the hidden emptiness behind fame, performance, achievement, and external success while revealing how true fulfillment can only be found in Christ.
