Billy Hallowell sits down with Bunni Pounds, founder of Christians Engaged and the mind behind the massive upcoming event “America Reads the Bible.” The historic, weeklong initiative will call national leaders and everyday Americans back to Scripture. In April 2026, hundreds of celebrities, pastors and influential voices will gather in Washington to publicly read the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation.

Ms. Pounds shares the divine inspiration behind this effort, the movement’s call for repentance and renewal, and how rediscovering the Bible holds the power to transform individuals, families and the nation.

A popular New York City pastor believes that the tragic assassination of conservative and Christian commentator Charlie Kirk has sparked something truly surprising: revival.

“Anytime society goes into a desperate state — and I think we’ve been there for years — this desperation is increasing financially, economically. We’re feeling it, but also within our families: people … start looking for answers,” Mike Signorelli, pastor of V1 Church, told “God Country and the American Story.”

Mr. Signorelli, author of the new book, “Fire Starters: Igniting Revivals and Sustaining Spiritual Awakening,” said this search for answers amid the chaos is leading many to discover Christianity. On the first Sunday after Mr. Kirk’s killing, the pastor’s church saw 533 people embrace the Christian faith. Watch him join Billy Hallowell for a powerful conversation about Mr. Kirk, revival and more.

On this special episode of God, Country, and the American Story, Billy Hallowell sits down with former Secret Service agent Darin Kinder, a survivor of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Mr. Kinder is the author of the new memoir, Bury Me in a Dirty Suit. He joins Mr. Hallowell in recounting his harrowing firsthand experience inside the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He describes, in vivid detail, the moments when chaos, death, and destruction collided with faith, courage, and selflessness.

From his story of miraculous survival and hearing God’s voice to returning to “the battlefield” to save lives, Mr. Kinder shares how the tragedy impacted his life, faith and life's mission.
