Our Nation Should be Proud

Addressing Our Nation's Response to Current Events

Featuring Author & Guest Speaker

Lieutenant General William G. "Jerry" Boykin

Thursday, February 26, 2026  |  5:00 PM

Join us for an exclusive evening with retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General William G. “Jerry” Boykin as he delivers a timely, high-impact discussion on America’s response to today’s most urgent global challenges including Venezuela, Israel, Ukraine, Iran, and the enduring values that unite our nation. With 36 years of service and more than two decades in Joint Special Operations, LTG Boykin brings unmatched insight shaped by real-world leadership at the highest levels of national defense. A founding member of Delta Force and former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence at the Pentagon, he has led and served in some of the most critical missions and moments in modern military history including operations in Iran, Grenada, Panama, Somalia, and beyond.

 

Today, as Executive Vice President of the Family Research Council in Washington, DC, and an ordained minister, LTG Boykin continues to speak boldly on leadership, national security, faith, and American strength. His most important mission is as an ordained minister and Founder/President of Kingdom Warriors, a non-profit ministry that encourages Christians to be bold in their faith. His autobiography, Never Surrender: A Soldier’s Journey to the Crossroads of Faith and Freedom, will be available for purchase at the event.
