The Texas General Land Office was founded 190 years ago to oversee the land the Texan Revolutionaries fought so hard to self-govern. For the past 15 years, it’s overseen the Alamo - one of the very places where blood was shed in the name of that freedom.

We reveal how the Land Office preserves Texas history, the monumental effort to steer the Alamo into the future, and how maps are bridging the centuries of this once-in-a-lifetime effort. Featuring Texas Land Commissioner Dr. Dawn Buckingham.

Let’s see the people in the world around us differently because our stories are Bigger Than You Think. The Beatles, the Bible, and Beyond with Ken Mansfield and Brian Mason AccessMore John Lennon once famously said that "The Beatles are bigger than Jesus." At that time in the 1960s, they were the most well-known rock band in the world. Behind the scenes helping the Beatles was Ken Mansfield. Ken was hand-picked to be the first U.S. Manager of The Beatles' Apple Records and thrust into a world that would change his life forever. Despite his success helping other artists like The Beach Boys, James Taylor, and Waylon Jennings, life felt empty, and Ken eventually came to know what true fulfillment was in a life with Jesus. We remember Ken’s incredible life as he is joined by Brian Mason, a legendary long time radio host. Join us as we celebrate Ken’s life by listening to them discuss the intersection of Jesus and Music and tell stories about Ken’s days in the music industry.
