Meet Christian Hodges–– a 20-year-old author, speaker, and host of the "AMERICA, DON'T GIVE UP" podcast. At 17, while still recovering from a near-death illness, he penned his first book, America, Don’t Give Up: Your Right to Freedom of Speech. Today he’s a regular Gen Z voice on Fox News and Newsmax, reaching millions with the truth of a biblical worldview.
***It is important to note that while Christian Hodges is not Catholic, his personal story and worldview contains Catholic principles and continues to inspire many.***
Christian understands his life calling: be a broken vessel with a convicting voice who leads America closer to Christ. He burns to see his generation set ablaze for King & country.
He regularly speaks on free speech, Christian apologetics, and all issues facing Gen Z– namely, Christian revival, MAHA, declining birth rates, and education on college campuses. Having recently graduated from Liberty University in December 2025, Christian is pursuing graduate studies in Christian apologetics.
