In a world of constant tragedy and heartache, where is hope? Frank sits down with Pastor Greg Laurie, one of today’s most recognizable voices in evangelism and the driving force behind Harvest Crusades, large-scale evangelistic events which have led millions to Christ since 1990.

Together, they discuss Greg’s powerful conversion story, his upcoming crusade coming to the site of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Utah Valley University, this Sunday (11/16), and how the saving grace of Jesus brings joy and purpose to our lives even through unimaginable pain. They answer questions like:

  • How did Greg go from being a troubled youth to becoming one of the world’s most prominent evangelists?
  • What prompted Greg to bring his Harvest Crusades to Utah Valley University on such short notice?
  • What are some of the unique challenges Greg will encounter when he brings the Gospel message to Utah?
  • How did Greg and his wife Cathe turn personal tragedy–the death of their son–into a tool for sharing the Gospel?
  • What advice did Greg recently give to Erika Kirk?
  • Where is there so much hostility toward Christianity and conservatism in our culture?
  • What’s behind the surprising alliance between Islam, the LGBTQ+ movement, and the radical left?
  • How do believers today practically equip themselves with the “full armor of God”?
  • What happened at Frank’s recent TPUSA event at UC Berkeley and what does it reveal about spiritual warfare?

Friends, keep praying for the protection and spiritual guidance of leaders like Frank and Greg. And pray for thousands of hearts to accept the saving grace of Jesus Christ during the Harvest Crusade this Sunday (11/16) at Utah Valley University. Jesus is coming soon and the devil knows his days are numbered. In the meantime, he continues to wreak havoc on the world. But fear will never silence the Gospel. Like Pastor Greg says, “Don’t freak out, suit up!”

What happened behind the scenes at the historic memorial service for Charlie Kirk and what was its central takeaway message? Frank shares what it was like to attend and speak at what could possibly be the biggest public event in human history, and also highlights the remarkable efforts of the TPUSA team who put it all together in only 7 days while also mourning the devastating loss of their fearless leader.

Tune in as Frank shares clips from some of the speakers and answers questions like:

  • Why did Charlie continue doing college events when he knew his life could be at risk?
  • How do you respond to someone if they accuse you of being a Christian Nationalist?
  • Was Charlie Kirk a fascist?
  • Why should Christians seek to legislate morality?
  • What does Christianity offer that no other religion does?
  • Why should more Christians and those in church leadership speak up on controversial cultural issues?
  • What good has come from this tragedy?
