Liz Wheeler’s fire didn’t begin on a political debate stage — it sparked in a hospital room. A young athlete, a terrifying diagnosis, and a mother who refused to let the system decide her daughter’s fate. In this powerful conversation, Liz reveals how God redirected her passion from the pool to confronting corruption, exposing evil, and defending American families. She also gives raw wisdom on motherhood, vocation, and raising the next generation to pursue heaven — not likes.
If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to live boldly in truth while guarding the hearts of your children, this episode will light a match inside you.
