A Thousand Pounds Of Glass And A Lot Of Prayer - With Logan Ryser

A thousand pounds of glass hangs mid-air… and somehow it looks like it’s waving. That’s the true story behind a world-record American flag made of hand-blown glass, built for the 250th anniversary of America and finished with Scripture in 24 karat gold. We’re still trying to wrap our minds around how something that massive can be crafted panel by panel, shipped in wooden crates, and installed without losing a single piece.

Before we get to the art, we give an important update on the Patriot Academy campus in Fredericksburg, Texas. The response from listeners has been overwhelming, with people praying, giving, and even sponsoring entire cottages to help protect a training ground for constitutional education and leadership development. It’s a reminder that culture isn’t changed only by talk, it’s changed when people step in, share the message, and support the mission.

Then glass artist Logan Ryser joins us to explain how the flag came together, why only a handful of artisans can do this kind of work, and how he chose passages like Psalm 35 and 2 Chronicles 7:14 to connect America’s founding story with a clear call back to humility and repentance. We also talk about where the flag may travel next, including possible stops on the road to Washington, DC, so the public can see it up close and experience the message for themselves.
