Glenn talks to American Bible Challenge host Jeff Foxworthy

March 20, 2013
 Wilson

Writer

On radio this morning, Glenn interviewed author and television host Jeff Foxworthy of GSN’s American Bible Challenge.

“The American Bible Challenge was a huge success. The last time I talked to you about this, I think it was getting ready to premiere last year and you said, we're just going to try this out. We're not really sure if it's even going to work, or whatever. We'll just try it. Here it is a success and now back the second year,” Glenn said.

American Bible Challenge became the highest rated show in the history of GSN – a remarkable feat given GSN is not a faith-based network. Glenn compared the show’s success to another show – The Bible on the History Channel, which similarly became the highest rated show in that network’s history.

“Highest rated thing in the history of the network, which is very interesting,” Foxworthy said. “A show about the Bible, you know, on a network that's not devoted to faith programming. I think that's pretty cool.”

Foxworthy attributes the show’s success to its positive message and unique format. “You know, if you just talk about faith, it becomes boring pretty quickly. But unlike any game show, nobody keeps the money,” he explained. “They turn around and they give it away to somebody in their community. They love on somebody in their community.”

In the wake of the election of the new Pope, media coverage of the event has focused largely on modernizing the Catholic Church. Considering the Catholic Church, like any sect of Christianity, is rooted in the words and teachings of the Bible, there is only so much ‘modernizing’ any of these religions can do. “I mean, Glenn, you're talking about the scriptures,” Foxworthy said. “If you believe that it's the – you know, that it is the inspired Word of God, it wasn't just written for people 2,000 years ago or 3,000 years ago. It's still relevant today.”

“You're supposed to take care of each other, and when that happens within the faith community, then there's no longer this big requirement for the government to do it. It's not their job,” he continued. “We're supposed to take care of each other.”

Glenn proceeded to ask Foxworthy about the lack of coverage the success of shows like American Bible Challenge and The Bible receives from the mainstream media. Glenn suggests that it is most likely because the left is afraid to admit the power such shows wield in shifting the conversation away from the power of government toward the power of faith and the Bible, and Foxworthy had similar insight.

“It's because it's a positive thing. And, you know, we've kind of become in this country to where the thing that we worship is the government. The government is going to take care of us. And it was never intended to be that way,” Foxworthy said. “I mean, if you go study the Constitution that was never the way it was supposed to be.”

Foxworthy’s favorite passage from the Bible is Galatians 1:10, which talks about whether one if seeking the approval of man or of God. And as a result, he takes any criticism the show or he might face in stride. “I just figure if I live my life in such a way that God approves of it, then do I really care what anybody else says about it,” he said. “Because you've got to think if I'm doing it in a way, you know, I'm probably a pretty good citizen of my country and of my state and of my community. I'm probably a good father. I'm probably a good friend. I'm probably a good husband. So what does it matter what you say about it?”

“I really like that guy,” Glenn said about Foxworthy. “A really, really normal, nice guy… Put something positive and something fun in your life. The American Bible Challenge – tomorrow.”

'Liberation begins where America dies': Lara Logan reveals the TRUTH about Antifa's role in violent riots

Award-winning investigative journalist Lara Logan told Glenn Beck on the radio program Wednesday that a network of radical extremist terrorist organizations, which includes Antifa, are coordinating and escalating many of the violent riots in the wake of George Floyd's death.

Lara, who has done extensive reporting on Antifa, said it's "extraordinary" that so many Americans in the media and politics are defending the "very violent terrorist organization."

"[The media is] pretending that they care about journalism. They don't. They care about silencing, intimidating, destroying, annihilating, and getting us all to self-sensor so we don't cover any of the subjects they don't want us talking about," she said.

"For those of us who've followed [Antifa] for a while, and know what they're doing and what their agenda is, what has always been troubling is the way so many people in the media and in the political establishment have given them cover to operate," Laura added. "These are extremists. And you see a lot of parallels between extremists on the left and the right ... they pretty much operate the same way, exactly. And there's no difference between what Antifa is doing and the 'Brown Shirts' of Nazi Germany. Or the 'Black Shirts' of Mussolini."

She read the 10 points of action listed by an extremist group called the "Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement", which culminates with "Liberation begins where America dies."

Glenn recalled a prediction he made approximately 15 years ago, that "socialist, communists, radicals, anarchists, [and] Islamists would all work together ... they would all see the opportunity and work toward the same goal. And that's destruction of capitalism, and destruction of the Western world."

"A few years ago, I probably would not have agreed with you on that," Laura responded. "But I now see that you're absolutely correct."

Dan Bongino RIPS media for calling Trump a 'coward hiding in a bunker' during White House riots

The Trump-deranged media is calling the president a "coward" because he was moved to an underground bunker as riots erupted outside the White House over the weekend.

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino joined the "Glenn Beck Radio Program" Tuesday to set the record straight. He told Glenn that under Title 18, US Code 3056, the Secret Service has the authority to protect the president however they deem necessary, with or without his consent.

Dan explained that the severity of the White House riots, which resulted in at least 50 Secret Service agents being injured, would very likely have warranted overriding the president's preference on whether or not to take shelter.

"Shame on the media ... for painting this as some kind of situation where Trump ran like a coward," Dan said. "Which is totally false and made-up. [...] They're morons. These are imbeciles with double digit IQs who are only in this to aggravate an already-bad situation. And it's a shame, because they're really incentivizing this kind of stuff to happen."

He also made it clear that the so-called protests over the death of George Floyd were actually "very strategic" riots organized by "Antifa terrorists."

"It was not even a protest. It should have been, and could have been ... but that's not what it was. It was an insurrection. It was a riot," Dan stated.

"I can tell you, from sources of mine that were there, [who are] more than credible and unimpeachable, that the attack at the White House -- and that's what it was over a period of days -- was very organized. It was done using very strategic tactics," he added. "I want to be crystal clear, this was organized by Antifa terrorists. It's not a joke. It's not hyperbole. These were people that were committed to an insurrection that was thankfully put down."

'Medieval': Dallas man STONED, beaten to near-death by rioters in viral video

The media has been trying to discredit BlazeTV's Elijah Schaffer after he recorded a disturbing video of a man being brutally beaten and stoned almost to death by rioters Saturday evening in Dallas.

Elijah joined Glenn Beck on the radio program Monday to set the record straight.

"The very dishonest far-left media is working tirelessly at the moment to completely, not only discredit myself, but they always say, 'Elijah Schaffer who works for Glenn Beck's BlazeTV.' As if that's an insult. So I'm going to clear the air right now," he told Glenn.

"There was a group of about, I would say 150 rioters. They were not protesters. They were breaking windows. They broke into a bank. They broke into a bar. They were looting alcohol and partying on the streets while breaking glass. These were not people who were grieving over black lives," he added. "The police had lost control of the city."

Elijah went on to describe the violent scene, detailing the events leading up to the brutal beating of a man who was apparently trying to defend a local bar. Elijah posted a video of the incident on Twitter Saturday night.

"Rioters with rocks and bricks and bats and weapons, 150 or more, were accosting him as he stood in front of the bar," Elijah said. "Then they started stoning him, Glenn! Medieval! Throwing rocks and bricks.... We're in America. This is 2020. We do not stone people in the United States of America!"

Pew report breaks down COVID-19 impact by congressional district — Dems won't like the results

A new Pew Research Center report shows the death toll in the United States from COVID-19 is "heavily concentrated" in Democratic congressional districts.

According to the analysis, more than half of all COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. occurred in just 44 (approximately 10 percent of) congressional districts, and 41 of those 44 hardest-hit districts are represented by Democrats, while only three are represented by Republicans.

"A new Pew Research Center analysis of data on official reports of COVID-19 deaths, collected by the John Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering, finds that, as of last week, nearly a quarter of all the deaths in the United States attributed to the coronavirus have been in just 12 congressional districts – all located in New York City and represented by Democrats in Congress. Of the more than 92,000 Americans who had died of COVID-19 as of May 20 (the date that the data in this analysis was collected), nearly 75,000 were in Democratic congressional districts," Pew reported.

Filling in for Glenn Beck on the radio program this week, Pat Gray and Stu Burguiere argued that, while the coronavirus should never have been made into a partisan issue, the study certainly makes a strong statement in favor of GOP leadership.
