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

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.
