Just 2 months until you can meet Dr. Ben Carson!
World-renowned neurosurgeon who pioneered operating on a baby still in the womb. Fierce pro-life advocate. 17th US Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. Professor. One-time presidential candidate. Author. Prolific speaker. Recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Podcast host. And more!
If you haven’t heard Dr. Ben Carson’s story before, it’s a powerful testament to the power of God’s grace to overcome extreme odds.
We are particularly excited about Dr. Carson's latest book, The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family, which encourages returning to the biblical values our nation was founded upon–especially the prioritization of family–to secure a prosperous future for generations to come:
"As was the case at the Battle of Baltimore, this war for America’s soul has narrowed to a specific field of engagement. Not Fort McHenry this time. Rather, the American family is under heavy bombardment and sustained attack. Our enemies have been chipping away at their target for decades, and they now believe the time is right for a full-scale assault.
"...To win will take resolve and courage. It will take wisdom and conviction. It will take truth and hard work. It will take all of us, united. But there is no reason that we, the American people, cannot overcome the forces that want to tear us apart—no reason we cannot recognize that there is more that unites us than divides us."
If you're inspired by Dr. Carson's legacy and want to see him in person, join us for our inaugural conference, The Essential Summit, on Thursday, October 3, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. A VIP ticket will get you a seat for the dinner reception and photo opportunity with Dr. Carson!
Want more? Check out his podcast, Common Sense with Dr. Ben Carson!
Common sense is not so common these days. If you are one of the many people who thinks that to themselves, then this podcast is for you. Each week, Dr. Ben Carson takes you on a personal journey into the issues and headlines Americans face through the lens of 4 cornerstone principles - faith, liberty, community, and life... the basis upon which the greatest nation on earth was founded. The promise of America is alive and well, but it’s not a given. Dr. Carson offers a weekly prescription of things to think about, ideas of what you can do in your own life, and stories to help you make a little more sense of the world.
