Often in Scripture there are common threads that point us to one conclusion. If you are listening/watching today’s episode and feeling weary be encouraged: God has rest and revival for you. 

But, if we want to be revived, we have to choose to meet God so He can restore us. Psalm 119 has dozens of reminders that revival from God is available but we have to participate. Jesus will show up, but we need to meet Him there.

On today’s episode of Fearless we look at Psalm 119 and the story of James to find out how God wants us to seek a reviving each and every day. 

If you are looking for a special way to gain rest and renewal we would encourage you to visit The Cove. Believers from across the globe come to The Cove with the goal of spending focused time in God’s Word and with the desire to receive renewal and rest in our beautiful mountain setting. Programs at the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove are offered year-round and feature leading Bible teachers from around the world. You can find out more here: https://thecove.org/

Have you seen the headlines?

“Los Angeles County is apocalyptic.”

“Apocalyptic Dubai floods. shake picture perfect city.”

“Asheville residents battling apocalyptic aftermath of Hurricane Helene and deadly flooding.”

On and on the headlines go. In fact, there was even one article that I read that said, “The end of the world is trending. Why are we so obsessed with the apocalypse?” And I just asked the question, are we obsessed with the end of the world? On today’s episode of Fearless we talk about this obsession and how we need to transform the fear into hope. Hope of survival into eternity with Jesus Christ. The world can’t strip Him away and they can’t strip His peace that He freely gives us away.

Scriptures referenced on today’s episode of Fearless: 1 John 1, Matthew 24:6-8, Romans 8:28

When you think about Christmas, what is the song that is the soundtrack for this season of your life? Maybe it’s Joy to the World, O Holy Night, or White Christmas. But have you ever thought about the very first Christmas song that was ever sung?

A lot of us would probably think it's Hark! The Herald Angels Sing from Luke 2:14. But that wasn't the first Christmas song. The first Christmas song actually came nine months before that – it was Mary's song.

This time of year isn’t the same for everyone. There are many who struggle with the holidays and many who may be coming out of a season of suffering. Today on Fearless, I’m taking a look at Mary’s story. I hope it is a reminder that, despite what we have going on, we are to be like Mary and praise God despite our worldly circumstances.

Every family and community has their own traditions and our family is no different. From Christmas traditions to everyday habits, we have built things that our family holds so dear. But this year I have been really thinking about when traditions can become a distraction from our ultimate purpose - to know and be known by God.
 
 How do we create an environment that builds traditions that move us closer to God? How do we avoid making the “Good ‘Ole Days” into an idol that robs us of the blessings that God has for us in the present? On today’s episode of Fearless I am joined by my brother, Wil Graham, to talk about traditions.

Many years ago I had a decision to make - should I invite kids to my wedding or not? Brides can have such a vision for how they want their big day to go but do we allow this “picture perfect” dream to get in the way of showing kids the beauty of weddings and marriage? Bigger than this one day, do Christians cut children out of critical moments that can show them what we really hold dear? On today's episode I bring on a few behind-the-scenes friends to help me have a discussion about how we should “walk the talk” of what we believe as Christians.

It’s hard to believe Election Day is tomorrow. No matter which side of the aisle you’re on, we can be sure there is a battle still in front of us – but the battle ahead is not ours, it’s God’s. We need to remember to trust God. We don’t know what the results of the election will be, but God does and we can trust Him with tomorrow. We do not have to live in fear or with anxious hearts; we can stand in strength because we know who holds our future.

Today on Fearless, I want you to be encouraged that we all can live fearlessly and confidently in the hope of Jesus Christ.

In this election process–no matter what happens in the next few weeks–our battle is not between political parties. It's the epic spiritual battle of good versus evil, truth versus lies. With the election less than two weeks away, we need to prepare ourselves and our families for what lies ahead. We have seen so much divisiveness in the last seven years and that isn’t going to change on Nov. 5. No matter who wins our focus and priorities do not change. We need to be prepared to fight for our beliefs, our children, and for the future of our country. We need to stand for truth, fight against evil, and never compromise.

Whether it’s agenda-based curriculum in schools, gender confusion, and abortion, or religious freedom, immigration, and the impact of the economy, if we do nothing evil will fill the gap. Today on Fearless, I want to remind everyone that we cannot sit silent on the sidelines.

Many people think we shouldn’t talk about religion and politics. But one of the most essential rights we have as Americans is the right to free exercise of religion. In fact, it was so important to the founding fathers that they included it in the first sentence of the Bill of Rights. This has been a beacon of hope to those in other countries where people are persecuted for their religion. Yet, so many in our country want to take those rights away – claiming separation of church and state.

Today, on the #FearlessPodcast I’m taking a look at the stories of people in the U.S. who have faced persecution and not backed down. My grandfather, Billy Graham, once said, “Let us stand for political freedom, moral freedom, religious freedom, and all the rights of all Americans, and let's never give in to those who would attempt to take it from us.” We pray that a new generation of believers will rise up to stand for the truth of God’s Word.

What would you do if your child decided to identify as a bird and thought they could fly off of the stairs? You would stop them to protect them from getting hurt. Yet today many children are being influenced to harm themselves through body mutilation and toxic, life-altering drugs because they ‘identify’ as something they are not – and parents, doctors and the government are not only complying, they are advocating for it. Before gender identity was ever a political issue, it was a Biblical issue. Genesis 1:27 says, “And God made man in His own likeness. In the likeness of God He made him. He made both male and female.” We don’t define our gender – only God can define who we are. 

Today, on the #FearlessPodcast, I’m talking about what parents can do to protect our kids from this evil and serious issue when advocates of gender reassignment are coming after our children.

Today on the #FearlessPodcast, my friends Bethany and Josh Bidwell are joining me to share the battle they faced with their children in the public school system in Oregon. While Oregon is known to be a hotbed for the progressive, secular agenda, the perverse and disturbing depravity their children were exposed to solidified their decision to move them to a private school.

Our education system is actively taking steps to indoctrinate our children – and they don’t want parents to know. Whether it’s Critical Race Theory, gender theory, or social Marxism, many anti-Biblical and anti-American ideologies which are destructive to the core traditional values many families have are shaping future generations.

While putting kids in private school or homeschooling isn’t always an option, being informed is the first step to making a change. Parents need to know what their kids are being taught – and who is teaching them – and take steps to make sure their voices and concerns are heard. Our greatest mission field is our kitchen table. And if we aren’t talking to our kids about these issues, the schools will. When parents demonstrate a Christ-like attitude and teach a foundation of Biblical truth to our children, the more they will understand God’s Word for themselves and be able to reject the lies of this world.
