  • Be Ready: Standing Firm in Uncertain Times

    Be Ready: Standing Firm in Uncertain Times
    Nov 8 2026
    We are living in uncertain times. How should a Christian respond?

    In this special episode, Tom Sears speaks plainly to believers who feel the unrest. Debt, fragile supply chains, wars overseas, and a culture that has cut itself loose from its foundation have many people asking the same question: what is coming, and what do I do about it?

    Tom’s answer is simple. Be ready, and do not be afraid.

    You will hear about:

    Why these are uncertain times. You do not need to know the date of the storm to know that storms come.

    The biblical case for being ready. Proverbs 22:3, Proverbs 21:20, Joseph in Genesis 41, and 1 Timothy 5:8 on providing for your household.

    Watchmen on the wall. Ezekiel 33 and Nehemiah 4 show a people who prayed and set a watch, and kept building.

    Home, church, and neighborhood first. When trouble comes, the first help is the family, the church, and the neighbor with a truck and a chainsaw.

    A practical plan for your household. Water, food, medicine, light, cash, getting out of debt, and the skills our grandparents knew. Start with the likely emergencies, not the dramatic ones.

    Spiritual readiness. Daily time in the Word, family prayer, faithful church attendance, and settling now to obey God rather than men.

    Do not be afraid. Isaiah 41:10, 2 Timothy 1:7, and John 16:33 remind us that Christ has already overcome the world.

    What we owe the next generation. Every generation has faced uncertainty, and those that endured had family, faith, and community.

    Prepare like Joseph. Watch like Nehemiah. Rest like a child of the King.

  • The Battle Is On: Faith that Founded A Nation

    The Battle Is On: Faith that Founded A Nation
    Nov 3 2026
    What if the story you were taught about America’s founding is only half true? Today, the record gets a fair hearing.

    In Episode 4 of The Battle Is On series, Tom Sears asks one of the biggest questions in the culture war: was America built on faith, or is that just a story Christians tell? One side says we were a Christian nation, period. The other says the founders were skeptics and the country was secular from day one. Tom walks through the actual record, and he is honest where it gets complicated.

    You will hear about:

    A morning in New York, April 30, 1789. George Washington’s first act as President was a public prayer, and the new government walked to St. Paul’s Chapel to worship.

    The version you were probably taught. Jefferson, Paine, and Franklin’s doubts are real, but so are Witherspoon, Samuel Adams, Roger Sherman, and Charles Carroll.

    Washington’s own words. His Thanksgiving proclamation and his Farewell Address, plus an honest look at the Valley Forge prayer story.

    Franklin and the failing Convention. His 1787 call for prayer, Psalm 127:1, and what happened to his motion.

    The Black Robe Regiment. The patriot preachers who helped shape a revolution.What the documents actually say about God.

    The Declaration, the Constitution, the First Amendment, and early state constitutions.

    A city upon a hill. Winthrop, Lincoln’s 1863 day of prayer, and 2 Chronicles 7:14.

    Why this history matters right now. The battle is first a battle for the story, and the people who tell it shape the next generation.

    This series is built chapter by chapter around Tom’s new book, The Battle Is On: America’s New Civil War.

  • The Battle Is On Series: What's Actually at Stake

    The Battle Is On Series: What's Actually at Stake
    Aug 16 2026
    You do not have to go to church to have skin in this game.

    This episode is for the person who loves America but is not sure the faith argument applies to them. The person who can feel that something is wrong but has not yet connected the dots. The person who is skeptical of religious arguments but cares deeply about freedom, about their children's future, and about the kind of country America is becoming.

    Tom Sears makes the case today that the removal of America's Christian foundation is not primarily a religious issue. It is a historical one. And history is not ambiguous about what happens when governments decide that human dignity does not come from God.

    The Soviet Union thought they were building a better world. So did Nazi Germany. So did Mao's China. So did the Khmer Rouge. Every one of them rejected the idea that rights come from God. Every one of them produced mass graves. That is not alarmism. That is the documented record of the 20th century. And it raises a question that almost nobody in the current debate is asking.

    If you take the Christian foundation away, what do you replace it with?

    Episode 3 of the Battle Is On series also covers what is actually being taught to the next generation in American classrooms, why the mental health crisis among young Americans is connected to the removal of their heritage, why the freedoms most Americans take for granted rest on a foundation being pulled out from under them, and why John Adams was right when he said the Constitution is wholly inadequate to the government of any people who are not moral and religious.

    This episode is drawn from The Battle Is On: America's New Civil War by Tom Sears. The book, the interactive workbooks, and all Legacy Living Media programs are available at legacylivingmedia.com.
