Summary

How do you capture your child’s attention so they know and live THE truth of Jesus while ensuring they aren’t indoctrinated by secularism? This week, Frank sits down with actor and conservative activist, Kirk Cameron, to talk about his partnership with Brave Books and his new children’s program, 'Iggy & Mr. Kirk', designed to train kids in the Lord. Together they tackle questions like:* How did Kirk become a Hollywood actor at the age of 10 and then make the transition from atheism to Christianity?* Why did Kirk need bodyguards and bulletproof vests when reading wholesome books at public libraries?* What excuse do many Christians use to avoid engaging in culture battles instead of creating solutions to make things better?* What does Kirk mean when he says there's two groups of people in the world--reporters and reformers?* What makes 'Iggy & Mr. Kirk' different from every other television program made for kids?* What Brave Book titles do Frank's grandchildren ask him to read to them over and over again?If you want to be one of the first to get a sneak peek of 'Iggy & Mr. Kirk' and find out how your family can watch this brand-new series, along with more than 50 parent-approved shows that teach Christian values, don’t miss this fun and family-friendly episode of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist!'Resources mentioned during the episode:Kirk's website: https://www.kirkcameron.com/ (https://www.kirkcameron.com/)Kirk's book 'Born to Be Brave': https://a.co/d/1FePYjg (https://a.co/d/1FePYjg)Learn more about 'Iggy and Mr. Kirk': https://bit.ly/41OC8Et (https://bit.ly/41OC8Et)Brave Books: https://bravebooks.us/ (https://bravebooks.us/)Brave+ Streaming Entertainment for Kids: https://braveplus.com/ (https://braveplus.com/)Takeaways Podcast: https://bit.ly/4c5MEw1 (https://bit.ly/4c5MEw1)American Campfire Revival: https://www.kirkcameron.com/acr (https://www.kirkcameron.com/acr)

Ladies and gentlemen, how can you capture the attention of your children to know the truth and want to live the truth?

0:10.9

How do you educate them in a fun yet also very instructive way?

0:17.2

So they walk away with the truth of Christianity and the values that Christianity puts forth.

0:23.3

Well, there's probably nobody better to help us with that than Kirk Cameron all the way

0:28.8

originally from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen, so he needs a round of applause. You know that Kirk

0:34.2

for many years was on Growing Pains in Hollywood. He's been in several movies.

0:38.8

But in recent years, he's turned his attention to young people in particular. And I want to

0:44.1

start two years ago this month, Kirk, it was March of 2023. And you were going to certain libraries

0:53.4

and reading wholesome books. but somehow you had to wear a bulletproof

vest, and also you had to have bodyguards and even safe rooms. Why is that? Well, because it was

1:51.6

places like that, the, you know, the purple hair platoon came out, but the grandmas and the

1:57.6

grandpas and the moms and dads came out in force and overwhelmed the opposition.

2:04.4

And they began singing songs like God bless America and breaking into prayer meetings and spontaneous revivals right there in the libraries of these public, I mean, the lobbies of these public libraries.

2:17.8

And they're doing that because they care about their kids. They care about the future that they're

2:21.4

going to be growing up in. And it's a real honor to stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
