How does a man build a legacy that outlives him? It’s not through image or comfort, but through Scripture, prayer, and the kind of courage that shows up when it costs something. This week we sit down with three generations of the Benham family to talk about Father’s Day, legacy that actually lasts, and why kids follow what we embody more than what we say.

Bailey shares what it’s like to grow up with a “spiritual inheritance” and why more young men are suddenly rethinking marriage, family, and generational impact. Flip takes us through his story of redemption, from being raised in the saloon business to meeting Christ and becoming a bold voice in pro-life advocacy. We unpack why the pro-life worldview is not merely political but biblical, including the conviction that life begins at conception. We discuss the real-world cost of public faith: arrests, harassment, prayer vigils, and how watching a father stand firm can ignite courage in the next generation.

But a study published in the Journal of Family Psychology states the father’s role is just as critical.  Having a father figure provides for vital emotional growth. Girls raised with a loving father are more emotionally balanced, less likely to be depressed or suffer from anxiety.
