Samuel Rodriguez: How to Defeat the Giants in Your Life
October 20, 2026
We all face giants—fear, failure, rejection, betrayal or a dream that seems impossible. But what if the battle in front of you is actually preparing you for your purpose? Pastor Samuel Rodriguez joins Erick Stakelbeck to discuss his powerful new book, Goliath Never Wins: Five Rock-Solid Strategies for Slaying Your Giants, and the lessons we can learn from David’s journey from the shepherd’s field to the battlefield and ultimately the throne.
Pastor Sam reveals why knowing your identity in Christ comes before confronting your Goliath, how fear can keep you from your calling, why seasons of waiting are part of God’s preparation—and why you sometimes have to remove the labels and expectations other people have placed on you.
Plus, Erick shares how he confronted his own fear before traveling into war-torn Ukraine, and Pastor Sam explains why faith doesn’t mean you’ll never experience fear—it means fear doesn’t get the final word. The giant may look impossible. The battle may look overwhelming. But Goliath never gets the final word.
Victor Davis Hanson: Trump’s Counter-Revolution Is Just Beginning
October 13, 2026
Donald Trump was out of office, banned from major social media platforms and facing opposition from inside and outside his own party. Four years later, he was back in the White House. How did it happen—and what changed along the way?
Victor Davis Hanson joins Erick Stakelbeck for a conversation about his new book, The Counter-Revolution: The Fall and Rise of Donald Trump and the MAGA Movement. Hanson lays out how President Trump rebuilt his political movement, what he believes Trump learned during his four years out of office, and why he describes the second Trump administration as a “counter-revolution” aimed at changing institutions that conservatives have long criticized.
From Trump’s political low point to his return to the presidency, Victor Davis Hanson breaks down the story behind one of the most consequential political comebacks in modern American politics.
