Black Robe Regiment: The Forgotten Pastors Who Fought for America
Tim Barton (WallBuilders) joins Pastor Josh McPherson with the most explosive history lesson you’ll hear all year. In this raw, on-location episode filmed one block from the White House, they unpack the REAL Black Robe Regiment — the pastors who literally won the American Revolution.You were lied to in school. Jefferson wasn’t a godless deist. Lincoln’s story is twisted. And the Founding Fathers quoted the Bible 40-50% of the time. Pastors didn’t just pray — they preached revolution, raised militias, fought with hymn books as ammo, and wrote the Bill of Rights.Tim reveals:• The pastor who ripped off his black robe mid-sermon to reveal a Continental Army uniform• The “Fighting Parson” who loaded muskets with Isaac Watts hymnals and said “Give ’em Watts, boys!”• The 50-year-old Yale pastor who stood alone on a hill firing at the British and told the officer, “I’m practicing my right of war!”If you’re a pastor, father, or patriot who wants to understand why America exists and what’s at stake right now, this is required listening.Support the showThanks for listening!

God Builds, Then He Fills | Sacred Assembly | Pastor Mark Driscoll
Pastor Mark Driscoll from Trinity Church joins Grace City Church for a powerful “family meeting,” connecting the church’s Sacred Assembly season to Ezra & Nehemiah and calling for a continued rhythm of prayer, planning, fasting, and faith for favor. With twelve key words, he unpacks spiritual warfare as a battle for family, freedom, and the lordship of Jesus, and explains how God builds and then fills—first with His presence, then with new sons and daughters who will meet Christ. This message will strengthen your conviction, deepen your worship, and help you recognize what it means to gather as a sacred assembly in a thin place where heaven comes near.Support the showThanks for listening!

Hear God; Obey God
You haven't "arrived." You were made to learn. This message is a challenge to pride, a rebuke to spiritual boredom, and an invitation back into the presence of God. Pastor Josh McPherson unpacks why wisdom starts with fearing God, why obedience turns the volume up on God’s voice, and why a church of learners becomes a church of leaders. The takeaway: stay in the tent—because what God is about to do will require what only God can give.Support the showThanks for listening! Go to www.StrongerManNation.com for more resources.
