  • America at a Crossroads Part 3: The Forgotten Heritage

    America at a Crossroads Part 3: The Forgotten Heritage
    Nov 30 2025
    In this powerful installment of the America at a Crossroads series, Tom Sears exposes one of the greatest failures of our modern era, the failure to pass down America’s Christian heritage to the next generation.

    From the biblical command of Deuteronomy 6 to the early foundations of American education, governance, and culture, this episode reveals how deeply Christianity shaped the identity and direction of the United States. Tom walks listeners through the New England Primer, Harvard’s Christian mission, Congress printing Bibles for schools, and the spiritual worldview that influenced America’s founders.

    But Tom doesn’t stop with history. He uncovers the national shift, the rewriting, the removal, and the replacement of America’s heritage, and shows how the consequences are visible in today’s culture, classrooms, and homes.

    This episode is not just a diagnosis. It’s a call to action. Tom lays out a clear path for families, churches, and communities to reclaim what has been lost, rebuild spiritual foundations, and restore truth in a generation starved for identity, meaning, and direction.

    Is America Dying Part 4: The Collapse of Leadership

    Is America Dying? Part 4 — The Collapse of Leadership

    Rome didn’t fall in a day—it fell when leaders stopped serving and started serving themselves. In this episode of What’s Important Now, Tom Sears looks at the collapse of leadership—one of the clearest warning signs of a nation in decline.

    From Rome’s corrupt emperors to America’s political gridlock, corporate greed, cultural confusion, and spiritual failures, this program explores how leadership shapes the destiny of nations. When leaders rise to serve, people flourish. When leaders collapse, nations crumble. But there is hope. Tom lays out what servant leadership looks like—at home, in the church, and in the community—and how ordinary people can reclaim responsibility in extraordinary times.

    Is America Dying Part 2 Additional Content: Why Nations Rise and Fall on the Family
    Aug 31 2025
    *"In this extended edition of What’s Important Now, Tom Sears goes beyond the broadcast to take a deeper look at one of the greatest threats facing America: the collapse of the family.On radio, you heard the warning signs. But here, Tom digs further—examining history’s lessons from Rome, Israel, the Industrial Revolution, and even the family collapse of the 1960s in America. He unpacks modern data that links fatherlessness to crime, poverty, and cultural decay, and shows how every empire that weakened its families eventually lost its strength. This is more than a conversation about culture—it’s about the spiritual battle for the home, and why restoring families is America’s only path to renewal.If you want the full picture of why families matter, what history teaches us, and where hope can be found, this extended podcast is for you."*
