Chad Williams joins Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar to discuss how to protect children in an increasingly wicked world. The conversation begins with Chad’s powerful testimony. Although Chad had completed Navy SEAL training, he was struck by a deep emptiness. Becoming a SEAL had been his life’s goal, but achieving it left him feeling hollow. He realized that no earthly accomplishment could truly satisfy the soul. It was through confrontation with Scripture that he began to understand the depth of human pride and sin. Only Christ can take away sin and cover His people with grace and mercy.

Chad shares how, from the moment of his salvation, he became a changed man. He immediately began proclaiming the gospel and eventually crossed paths with Ray, who encouraged him to try open-air preaching. That initial step was challenging, but it launched Chad into a bold and public faith. The guys discuss a clip of Chad engaging a skeptic with clarity and conviction. Mark recalls a humorous yet intense moment when someone attempted to steal Chad’s ID during a preaching event, only for Chad to chase the man down and retrieve it. Chad’s faith would soon lead him to another kind of battlefield: local politics.

Now a city councilman in Huntington Beach, Chad stepped into office after witnessing the significant cultural shift. Once elected, Chad focused on defending the defenseless, particularly children. He and the council took action after discovering sexually explicit books in the children’s section of the library. In response, they planned to establish a review board consisting of community members to identify and relocate inappropriate materials. However, this initiative provoked backlash, with critics labeling it censorship and a book ban. One deeply concerning organization sued the council over the committee’s formation.

This legal battle has reached a critical point. On June 10, there will be a vote on whether to preserve or dissolve the committee. The opposition is determined to shut down any effort that brings community accountability to public content. The guys, along with Chad, emphasize that this is not just a local issue—it is a spiritual battle with eternal stakes. If parents are not discipling their children, the world will. He reminds believers that discipleship is lived out on a daily basis. If sin isn’t named, it will be renamed and rebranded as progress. He urges listeners to pray, support, vote, give, and reach out to those in Huntington Beach. The time to act is now. Children are watching, and their future depends on how boldly this generation stands.
