Summary

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.
