JDFI Highly Recommends “The Sound of Freedom” Movie

Published on:

In this week's episode, Gary Bauer believes that every adult American Christian should see "Sound of Freedom." The film is a disturbing and riveting true story about Tim Ballard's remarkable journey to save children from sex traffickers in Columbia. Backstory: Ballard quit his job as a special operative at Homeland Security to found Operation Underground Railroad (OUR). In the movie, Ballard, played by Jim Caviezel, applies his unique skills, honed over ten years working in Homeland Security's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, to successfully liberate 50 kidnapped children. "God's children are not for sale," says Ballard. We at JDFI passionately agree! To search for show times in your area and to buy tickets, visit Angel Studios. We invite you to listen to this special, eye-opening podcast today.

Rejoice, ‘Pride Month’ is Over—Finally!

Published on:

In this week's episode of Defending Faith, Family, and Freedom, Gary Bauer walks listeners through a PG-rated recap of "Pride Month" that featured R and X-rated parades, where entirely nude men and women danced around, some simulating sex acts from floats, under the innocent gaze of young children. If this weren't hideous enough, President Biden held a pride event at the White House where a transgender activist guest (a man who has transitioned to a woman) repeatedly exposed his new breasts to young people and the press. Following public outrage, the White House eventually expressed regret for the incident and banned this individual from future government-sponsored events. All this debauchery is against the law, but for "Pride Month," law enforcement looks the other way. Lastly, there are adult educators in schools that are preying on youngsters who are confused about their sexuality by coaching them that they can change their sex. All this without parental consent! Moms, dads, and grandparents, we especially invite you to listen to this critically important podcast today.

Remembering the Anniversary of the Fall of Roe v. Wade

Published on:

This week's episode of Defending Faith, Family, and Freedom with Gary Bauer, marks the 1st anniversary of the fall of Roe v. Wade. Bauer challenges American churches to commemorate this landmark Supreme Court decision for what it was, a win for our beloved Constitution and a worthy celebration in the victory for life. He adds that in the 12 months since the Dodd decision, it is estimated that 30,000 to 60,000 babies have been saved from abortion, and that’s an amazing result. Bauer warns, however, that the state-by-state fight for life has only just begun. We invite you to listen to this uplifting and convicting podcast today.

America Suffering from ‘National Amnesia’

Published on:

Gary Bauer and special guest Dr. Jerry Newcombe, executive director of the Providence Forum, discuss “The American Experiment.” Newcombe says this ‘experiment’ can be summarized in a key phrase: “self-rule, under God.” If removed, Americans lose the true source of their freedoms—God. Newcombe says, "The Left has their big guns aimed at both of these pillars." In agreement, Bauer adds, “The Left doesn’t want to win the debate; the Left wants to shut down the debate.” To hear Bauer and Newcombe discuss America’s founding and God-centered heritage, we invite you to listen to this very important podcast.
