“We have all the tools to fix the world problems, but it’s not fixing the world. It’s fixing ourselves and what we can influence.” — Corey Terry
WHAT THIS EPISODE IS ABOUT
Scott Kesterson and Corey Terry, a retired Special Forces team sergeant and medic, talk about what 20 years of war did to America and why fear and party politics keep neighbors divided. Corey tells how a night helicopter mission in Kunar, Afghanistan, sent Taliban fighters fleeing for a month. Both men discuss Jim Gant’s village-by-village strategy and Matthew 7:3–5. They end on why fixing yourself, your family and your community matters more than any online fight.
KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED
- How did the war in Afghanistan change the way veterans see American politics?
- How do you love your neighbor when fear and politics keep dividing people?
- What did Special Forces learn from Jim Gant’s tribal approach in Afghanistan?
