Hour 1: The Story of Sgt. York
War hero, Medal of Honor recipient, and subject of an Oscar-winning film, Sgt. Alvin York was the most famous soldier of his generation. But behind the honors and publicity was an uncompromising Christian patriot who suffered when his ideals were challenged by shifting views of faith, patriotism, and moral relativism. Untouched by German gunfire, York faced destruction from disease, disrespect, and the IRS. Join us to hear the whole story of this great American figure.
Hour 2: War Story
Ambushed by the enemy, our guest, an Army ranger, mistakenly fired the shots that killed fellow soldier and former NFL player Pat Tillman. In the aftermath, he fought remorse, depression, addiction, and PTSD that claimed his marriage, his faith---and nearly his life. Discover how he ultimately found forgiveness. Don’t miss a minute of this riveting discussion.
