We’re all dying, but some of us have been brought face to face with that reality. Reflecting on this certainty is part of a life well lived. However long we’ve got, it’s up to each of us to redeem the time. In this new podcast, hosts Ben Sasse and Chris Stirewalt talk with their guests about lives lived with gratitude, grit, and joy.

The message you are communicating is the desperate message our culture needs, specifically men. Thank you for the diversity of guest and subjects. Love the Harbaugh show. Of course if I had it to again I too would be a football coach too!! Blessings to you both and praying for you, Ben!
Some of this is admittedly over my head, some at first glance does not seem relevant to my life. . . but through every episode, the wisdom conveyed is of incalculable worth. I especially think about fathers and fathers to be, and how much they could gleam from hearing so many life lessons spoken from hosts and guests who have lived well, learned from mistakes, and believe in something bigger than themselves.

I heard Ben refer to his son and the advice he would never be able to give him. I hope much of what is said in these interviews can play some role in preserving Ben’s thinking for his children.
Ben Sasse has so much wisdom to share. He’s the rare politician who walks the walk and who knows he’s there for a bigger purpose. So grateful to he and Chris Stirewalt for doing this podcast.

It’s also a great mix of the humorous, the profound, and the depth of the human heart mind. Keep ‘em coming, gentlemen. Praying for you and your family Ben. Thank you for this podcast.
