Florida Governor and presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis recently sat down for an engaging interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network. In the interview, DeSantis shared more about his personal background and his deep respect for America’s founding fathers.

During the interview, DeSantis spoke with David Brody of CBN News about his strict Catholic upbringing and the values instilled in him by his family. He emphasized the importance of hard work, education, and attending church regularly.

Reflecting on his time at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School, DeSantis acknowledged that while he may not have enjoyed it at the time, he now appreciates the discipline and principles instilled in him by the school.

DeSantis also discussed the role of faith in his life, particularly during challenging times such as his sister’s death and his wife’s battle with breast cancer. He emphasized that his household is centered around Christ and that he is raising his children with Christian values.

Furthermore, DeSantis discussed the importance of Christianity in government and praised the founding fathers for establishing a free nation based on the belief that God has endowed individuals with inalienable rights. He emphasized that the Constitution was created to protect these rights, not to grant them.

While DeSantis has performed well in polls, it is worth noting that former President Donald Trump continues to hold a lead in several polls. However, DeSantis remains a strong contender in the race for the presidency.
