SUICIDE. ABUSE. SHAME. ADDICTION. What if one voice could break through all of it? On this fiery episode of Code Red Talk with Zach Terry, we sit down with Dean Sikes—evangelist, school assembly speaker, and founder of www.youmatter.us —who has reached over 4,200 stages and spoken into the lives of millions of students across America’s public schools, detention centers, and even death row. Hear how God used one broken life to spark a national movement of HOPE. From sexual abuse at 15 to nearly entering politics... to encountering Jesus in a hospital hallway From lying his way through life to becoming a truth-teller in school assemblies nationwide. From silence to a prophetic voice calling a generation back from the edge of suicide. Dean gets real about trauma, therapy, forgiveness, fake Christianity, and how social media is discipling your kids more than the church. This is an urgent call for parents, pastors, and culture warriors.

WATCH if you want to understand the battle our teens are facing. STAY if you believe no one is too far gone. SHARE if you're ready to bring the hope of Jesus to the frontlines. This is Code Red.
