For the Christian who loves his country — but loves God more — and refuses to trade conviction for comfort.

If that’s you…

What if your trauma wasn’t your end—but your fuel?
In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, Peter Demos sits down with Dr. Damon Freidman, decorated combat veteran and founder of Shield of Faith Missions, to explore the reality of trauma—and how to transform pain into purpose.
From the battlefield to the home front, Dr. Freidman breaks down the psychological, cognitive, and spiritual layers of trauma—and reveals how faith, identity, and resilience can turn your darkest moments into the foundation of victory.
