John Kasich: How Communities Inspire Hope and Build the Future (ep. 798)

Former Governor John Kasich has spent his life bringing people together to tackle tough problems, guided by a deep belief that we all have a role to play in making the world a little better than we found it. As a former Ohio governor and four-time New York Times bestselling author, it’s his deep commitment to faith and building community that matters most to him.

Today, John Kasich shares why he believes the antidote to our cultural division isn’t politics — it’s purpose. Hear John share about his working-class roots, how losing his parents to a drunk driver deepened his faith, and why he believes real change always begins from the bottom up. He also reveals the stories behind his new book Heaven Help Us, which highlights unsung heroes whose love, compassion, and faith are quietly transforming communities across the country.

My friends, whether you consider yourself a Republican, Democrat, Independent or something completely different, this conversation is for you. You’ll leave reminded that you matter, that your choices ripple, and that faith—when lived boldly and lovingly—can unite, heal, and change the world.
