As Christian parents, it’s important that we know what our school system is teaching our children. I believe that we are in a battle, a spiritual war, for our children’s hearts, minds, and souls in this country. We need to be prepared to stand up for our children and speak biblical truth into their lives. Will we sit back and allow the secular left to win our children over, or are we going to fight for them?

On today’s episode of Fearless, I’ve invited my friend Todd Chasteen, Vice President of Public Policy and Corporate Counsel at Samaritan's Purse, to discuss these educational issues and help encourage you in truth as you advocate for your children.

Each year the new school season brings a certain chaos, and this year is no different. There’s been a lot of debate over schooling methods, and many people asked about what my husband and I decided to do with our children this fall regarding the new school year and their education. Today’s podcast episode is all about navigating this chaotic back to school season. Whether you’ve chosen homeschooling, online/virtual learning, in-person classes or a hybrid of the options, I encourage you to trust God in the process and bring your concerns to Him.

Most of us will never know what true persecution is. Pastor Andrew Brunson and his wife Norine do. They were arrested and imprisoned in Turkey — where they planted a church and served for more than 20 years — because of their religious beliefs. After two years, Andrew Brunson was released from prison. I had the chance to sit down with the Brunsons a few weeks ago in Alaska. At the time, I didn't know that Andrew and I would stand on the national stage this week during the Republican National Convention, he talking about his release from prison in Turkey and I talking about religious freedom.When I asked Andrew Brunson to join me on the #FearlessPodcast, his answer is one that I did not expect – I think you’ll be shocked at what his reply was.Scripture Referenced•Isaiah 11•Hebrews 13:3Going Farther•Decision Magazine – Articles on Andrew Brunson https://decisionmagazine.com/search/andrew+brunson/ •God’s Hostage: A true story of persecution, imprisonment, and perseverance https://www.godshostagebook.com/ Websites:•Billy Graham Evangelistic Association -- https://billygraham.org/•Billy Graham Radio -- https://billygraham.org/tv-and-radio/radio/•Samaritan’s Purse -- https://www.samaritanspurse.org/ Facebooks:•Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BillyGrahamEvangelisticAssociation/•Billy Graham Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ReverendBillyGraham/•Billy Graham Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/billygrahamradio/

Nerves of Steel. That’s how many people described Tammie Jo Shults in 2018 after she landed a Southwest Airlines plane that had lost an engine. But even before that fateful day, Tammie Jo had a fearless faith that took her from a farm in Texas to being one of the US Navy’s first female fighter jet pilots. I had the honor of speaking with Tammie Jo as she visited military couples at Samaritan’s Purse’s Operation Heal Our Patriots. Hear how her #fearlessfaith helped her overcome life’s biggest challenges on today’s #FearlessPodcast.

We live in a time where our country–our world–needs healing and reconciliation. Since I started the #FearlessPodcast, my desire has been to help Christians navigate their faith through an ever-changing and ever-compromising culture. Today, I am once again challenging Christians to know what they believe and why they believe it – and to know the facts and truth of the organizations they support; to know that we are giving our time, money, and attention to God-honoring issues and platforms.

After the heinous death of George Floyd and events following, it is apparent that racism is deeply rooted in the hearts of many today. All week I’ve wrestled with the questions in my head – and maybe you’re wondering the same: what can I do? From my grandfather’s words to what God has laid on my own heart, today on #Fearless I’m addressing racism and the turmoil in America today.

“The United States and the freedom for which it stands, the freedom for which they died, must endure and prosper. Their lives remind us that freedom is not bought cheaply. It has a cost; it imposes a burden.” – Ronald Reagan

Today I’m joined by a special guest – my sister-in-law Kristy Graham – who challenged me several years ago to reevaluate how my family and I recognize Memorial Day. Kristy has spent 16 years as a military wife, married to my brother Edward, who served in the U.S. Army. Today on the #FearlessPodcast, Kristy and I are talking about the real reason we recognize this day and want to encourage you and your family to do the same. We’ll also hear from Kristy’s friend, Lisa, who is a Gold Star Wife and lost her husband.

America is approaching the end of quarantine from the coronavirus pandemic and beginning to reopen. While that looks different from state to state, and even from community to community, it affects us all. Today on the #FearlessPodcast I am sharing the questions we as Christians and Americans need to ask as we reflect on the last few months and begin to move forward. And I’ll take a quick look at why we need to have a fearless faith especially as we face a time when cultural circumstances could compromise our religious freedom.

As we get ready to celebrate Mother’s Day, I’ve been thinking about some of the special women in my life, especially my mom and grandmother Ruth Graham. I’m thankful for everything they’ve taught me and how it’s helped me as a mom. In this episode of Fearless, I’m going to share some of their Biblical wisdom, a few stories and even some audio of my grandmother.

During this season of sheltering in place, Satan has tried to whisper to me that my worth and value are based only on the things I’m no longer able to do. Maybe he’s tried to tell you the same lies. In this episode of Fearless, I talk about the importance of using Scripture to stay focused on the truth of God. I also look at sweet reminders from the Bible that Jesus meets you right where you are.
