People often ask what the secret to the Graham family is. Spoiler alert: There is no secret. The home that my grandparents built – where my dad was raised – has a strong foundation, but it was far from perfect.

There’s a saying, “If these walls could talk,” what would they say? As I look back on 99 episodes of Fearless and the topics and issues we’ve covered and guests that have joined me, I wanted to find a way to make this episode special. I kept coming back to the foundation of my family. That foundation starts with home – my grandparent’s home in the mountains of North Carolina holds such special memories.

For my 100th episode, I am sharing the struggle I’ve had to find my voice, and with my identity of being a Graham. But I’m also reflecting back on the house that built me, with a strong foundation and an enduring legacy that continues to influence me and my family to be strong, fearless, an uncompromising when it comes to God’s Word.

So today, and as we continue to next chapter of Fearless, I hope you are encouraged to raise up the next generation in the love, hope, and truth of Jesus.

June brings out all the true colors of corporate America as companies pander to the LGBTQ community in honor of “Pride Month.” You can’t go shopping or open social media without seeing rainbows and the LGBTQ flag displayed on everything from clothes to food. But what exactly is Pride Month? Where did it start? And how are Christians supposed to respond to this celebration that goes against our beliefs?

I started #Fearless because so many people were asking how they should respond to those they know and love who are living in this lifestyle. And I’m doing this episode because more people are again asking “what do we do?” I’ve said before that love has become the greatest stumbling block for many Christians, because we have used “love our neighbors as ourselves” as an excuse not to share the Gospel.

On this episode of Fearless, I encourage you to address Pride Month with grace and truth. And I hope you’ll join me in praying for those who are facing challenging situations with those they love as they navigate the cultural acceptance of Pride.

We’re living in a world of chaos full of global unrest, cultural turbulence and personal suffering. Often, we are more focused on our traumas and challenges than we are on the hope of Heaven. So, how do we change that? 

My dad taught me the “gaze strategy” when I was learning to drive. But we can apply it to every area of our lives. If we focus on the Cross of Jesus Christ, we can shift our perspective from the here and now to the eternal. 

I recently spoke at Calvary Albuquerque’s Spring Gathering and the theme was “A Better Day.” I hope you are encouraged by this message that reminds you we all go through difficult times and our foundation directs how we’ll deal with those struggles.

Between prepping for the week ahead, getting last-minute chores done, your job and your kids’ sports schedules, keeping a true day of rest every week can be hard. And how important is it, really?

The Bible says it’s very important to set aside one day a week for resting and honoring the Lord. Culture, on the other hand, has redefined what a day of rest should look like.

On this episode I talk about some of the reasons why God calls us to keep the Sabbath. I also share some of the challenges my family has had with doing that and how we’re working through them.

Jesus said man was not made for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath was made for man. I hope this episode encourages you to reclaim this gift God has given us.

We warn our kids to always be careful about what they’re looking at, what they do, and how they behave. But how do we as parents navigate that when it comes to our own screen time – not only what we’re watching but how much time we’re spending watching it?

As screens have become present everywhere in our culture, it’s important to remember that time is a precious gift from God. It’s our responsibility to use our time in such a way that honors God and prioritizes what we’ve been entrusted with—our families and children. When we give too much time to content that’s meaningless and which isn’t God honoring, darkness and the world win a battle in the war for our hearts.

Today on Fearless, I’m sharing some tips that have worked for our family and how we are trying to make more time for what’s really important.

When culture denies reality, chaos and confusion are at large. And that’s what we are seeing today with the transgender ideology that’s getting pushed into all aspects of society—from drag queen story time, to spokespeople for major brands, to the havoc it’s wreaking in athletics. It’s an agenda that’s affecting our children and families, and even permeating into decisions and guidance from government and medical professionals.

Today on Fearless, I’m specifically looking at the chaos caused by allowing biological males to compete—and dominate--in female sporting events. 

While the world is neglecting truth, Christians need to stand strong and refuse to affirm the lies and untruth of the transgender agenda. On this episode, we’ll discuss how you should respond in these times of confusion and in the face of this fast-growing movement. I hope it encourages you to know and be emboldened by God’s Word and to equip your children and family with His truth.

Is seeking a therapist a new fad? There are seasons in life where we need to seek godly counsel to help us navigate through the trauma and challenges of life. However, I’ve seen a trend of people seeking therapy with no end goal; and sometimes even treating their therapist as a paid-for best friend.

On this new episode of #Fearless, I’ve invited some dear friends who helped me in a difficult season of life and through issues I’ve faced personally. Dr.’s Paul and Virginia Friesen of Home Improvement Ministries have a long history of family ministry, providing godly counsel to those who come to them for help.

Today we’ll discuss the difference between therapy and counsel, what red flags we should keep an eye out for in therapy, and when we need to seek godly counsel.

 Love has become the greatest stumbling block to many Christians, because we have used “love our neighbors as ourselves” as an excuse not to share the Gospel. This applies particularly towards the LGBT community.

We all know and love someone in the LGBT community – someone with whom we don’t think we can be honest and share the Truth with. But we as Christians need to remember that we can stand in truth and love at the same time and that loving our neighbor doesn’t mean affirming their lifestyle.

On this episode of “The Elephant in the Room” series, I talk about how to love the LGBT community like Jesus does, with both grace and truth.

The topic of race has escalated in the last few years and seems to have permeated every aspect of our society. Race and racial reconciliation is a topic some like to discuss and a topic some would like to ignore—but we in the church cannot ignore it. 

We need to ask how should we as the church be talking about racism and racial reconciliation? I’ve brought in Monique Duson, co-founder of the Biblical Center for Unity, who has spent the last few years addressing the dangers of CRT and helping Christians discuss these issues with a biblical worldview. She’s joining me to help us to know what conversations we should be having, what red flags to watch for in the church, and what’s at the heart of this issue. 

Through The Elephant in the Room series, we’ve been looking at topics many churches are missing. While many churches are having the conversation about race and racial reconciliation, they are looking to the world for answers and not to Scripture. I hope this conversation with Monique encourages you to not be afraid to have difficult conversations and to look to the Bible as the source for truth.

Do you ever feel inadequate for the task God has put before you? Today, on the first new Fearless episode of 2023, I’m sharing struggles I’ve faced and I want to remind you what's important: It's not who you are, but it's who you belong to.

I belong to God. And when you belong to God that changes everything.

Your calling isn’t about whether you are able, but it's rather, are you available?

You may feel like you’re not able to do what God’s called you to do, but in this episode I talk about the importance of being available for God and trusting Him with the rest.
