  A New Call: U.S. Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom 18.09.2026 8мин

  Today’s episode of Fearless is a special one. This week President Donald Trump announced that he has asked me to serve as U.S. Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom. The nomination is a great honor and privilege and, if confirmed, a position I would take on as the calling from the Lord that it is. This episode is mainly a closer look at what the role would entail, both here in the United States and around the world. Plus I also share the story behind getting a call abo...

  The Miracle of Forgiveness 15.09.2026 16мин

  I grew up with a lot of anger and resentment towards my dad. By the time I was in college, those feelings had turned into bitterness, defiance, and unforgiveness. That is until I went along on one of my dad, Franklin Graham’s, trips with Samaritan’s Purse. It was there in Kenya that I saw my dad living out all God had called him to, and it was there that I finally forgave him for being gone during a lot of my childhood. Today on Fearless we’re talking about one of the 10 attributes I ch...

  What kind of Woman will you Choose to Be? 01.09.2026 19мин

  Last time on Fearless I finally got to share with you the news of my upcoming book, Stand Steady. Today we’re going to dive into much of the heart behind why I wrote the book, answering the question: “What kind of woman will you choose to be?” And really, that question comes down to choices. We make over 35,000 choices every day. Most of those choices don’t matter all that much, but some of those choices are slowly defining who we will become in the years ahead. And if we simply choose to sit...

  Stand Steady 18.08.2026 16мин

  Welcome back to a brand new season of Fearless! I usually take a break from the podcast over the summer, but this summer especially looked very different for our family in many ways. It was a quieter season, a season we didn’t really plan for, as my mom battled some health issues and our family stayed put in Boone. But sometimes even those seasons we don’t plan for can end up being exactly what God uses to slow us down and show us what really matters. That was this summer for me. Going ...

  A Call for Renewal | The Message I Shared at Rededicate 250 02.06.2026 21мин

  A few weeks ago I had the honor of speaking at Rededicate 250 in Washington, D.C. it was a national call to prayer on the National Mall as our country approaches the 250th anniversary of its founding. And though the event reiterated our deep need for God as a nation, what I left Washington asking myself was this: How do we rededicate not just our country, but our homes, our marriages, our children, our own hearts? Because while, yes, we’re living in a time of deep political division and cultu...

  When Family is the Hardest Mission Field, with Gracie O’Loughlin 05.05.2026 38мин

  This week’s episode of Fearless is a little different. I had my childhood friend and now Samaritan’s Purse colleague, Gracie O’Loughlin, join me to share her powerful testimony of Jesus redeeming first her life, and then using her to bring Christ to family members far from Him. Gracie was one of the popular girls in our small town high school, and I remember looking up to her, but never fully knowing her story. Well, today you’ll get a front-row seat to that story—one where Gracie went from t...

  What Makes a Healthy Church? with Skip Heitzig 14.04.2026 40мин

  Recently I got to take a last-minute trip to Lima, Peru for one of my dad’s crusades—something that, as a mom of three, I don’t always get the chance to do as much as I used to. While we were there I sat down with pastor and longtime family friend, Skip Heitzig. Skip is no stranger to Fearless, but today’s episode felt different. During this candid—and honestly, pretty unplanned—conversation, Skip and I hit on everything from his friendship with my dad and the many adventures in minist...

  Edward Graham on Trusting God in Times of Global Crisis | Iran, Israel, & the Middle East 31.03.2026 1ч

  My brother Edward Graham is back on Fearless this week, talking about the current conflict in the Middle East, how to trust God in uncertain times, and his story of serving 16 years in the U.S. Army. As tensions continue to rise around the world, it’s difficult to know where to turn for truth. Speaking from his experience serving post-9/11, Edward gives us his honest take on how he thinks the conflict in Iran will unfold, why we should continue to stand with Israel, and why knowing Scri...

  Are You Being Discipled by Social Media? 17.03.2026 13мин

  We’re all being discipled by something. Whether that’s good things like Scripture, or neutral things like social media and the news—the world is influencing us. My family and I were recently remembering the passing of my grandfather when I was reminded once again that what we choose to consume always shapes us. Talking about his eventual death, my grandfather shared a message of hope in the face of grief. But a second social media video I saw around this same time simply talked about d...

  Would my Grandfather, Billy Graham, be Disappointed in Me? 03.03.2026 20мин

  Growing up a Graham, I’m used to living my life in the public eye. Negative comments or assumptions about me and my family don’t really phase me, but a recent Instagram message did give me pause: “Your grandparents would be so disappointed in you.” Now, I didn’t actually believe this was true, but the message did make me stop and think, what would my grandparents, Billy and Ruth Graham, think of me and how I’ve chosen to live my life? This week on Fearless I reflected on this question,...

  Israel, Replacement Theology, and the Rise in Antisemitism, with Samuel Smadja 10.02.2026 58мин

  There’s so much happening nationally and internationally right now, causing a lot of chaos within our circles—and even within the Church. One of those areas of confusion is Israel: whether the Church should stand with Israel, this idea of replacement theology, and the recent rise of Antisemitism. Today on Fearless I invited back my friend Samuel Smadja to speak into this topic and share his insights as an Israeli native and Messianic pastor living and working on the ground there right now.&nb...

  Defending Biblical Truth in Women’s Sports, with ADF’s Kate Anderson 16.01.2026 19мин

  Earlier this week I had the privilege of being in the room while our Supreme Court justices heard the case for defending biblical truth in girls’ sports. This was not just one, but two historic legal battles fighting for fairness and safeguarding female athletics from biological male participation. After hearing these brave young women share their stories firsthand, I got to sit down with Alliance Defending Freedom’s (ADF) Kate Anderson to talk through how these cases made it to our nation’s ...

  Dr. Frank Turek Talks Conspiracies & Finding Truth 17.12.2025 56мин

  In the three months since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, our nation—and world—has grappled with how to respond: whether to fight, join hands, or stay silent. To lend some much-needed truth and clarity to a tragedy that’s become plagued by misinformation, I invited Charlie’s good friend and mentor, Dr. Frank Turek, back on Fearless this week. Together Frank and I talk through some of the conspiracy theories (a few involving Frank himself) that have cropped up since Charlie’s death, how t...

  Technology, Faith, & Human Shortcomings | Billy Graham’s 1998 TED Talk 02.12.2025 27мин

  As I was surrounded by all things Christmas this week (as I’m sure many of us are!), I was reminded of a letter my grandfather, Daddy Bill, wrote to me in February of 1998. In the letter he wished me a Happy Valentine’s Day, and then mentioned that he was going to be speaking at the TED Conference in California, addressing that day’s leaders in technology, design, and entertainment. He was the first religious leader to ever be invited to give a TED Talk. Technology looks vastly differe...

  Returning to the Heart of Evangelism 18.11.2025 17мин

  Are we losing the heart of evangelism from behind the pulpit? On this week’s special episode of Fearless, I’m bringing you my talk from the Family Research Council’s Watchmen on the Wall Pastors Briefing recently held in Washington D.C. As I told that group, I’m an evangelist’s kid, not a pastor’s kid, but I’ve seen the Gospel proclaimed my entire life, and believe with all my heart that evangelism must be a priority for pastors and the church as a whole. Sadly, the church has lost sig...

  Teaching our Kids to Face the World without Fear 28.10.2025 12мин

  Our kids are undoubtedly growing up in a turbulent time. From the war in Israel to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, they’re seeing and hearing about death, chaos, and violence everywhere they turn. It’s tempting as parents to try to shield them, to protect them from the evils of the world, but is that actually biblical? Today on Fearless we’re talking about the importance of teaching our children to face the world without fear—equipping them to walk in confidence and courage in the t...

  Elephant in the Room: Generational Sin 23.10.2025 20мин

  On this week’s episode of Fearless we’re returning to our “Elephant in the Room” series, this time tackling a topic almost no one talks about: generational sin. I didn’t want to talk about this today either, but after a season where both public and private sins seemed to be everywhere we looked, I felt led to address it here. We talk about how all sin starts out small, but if we’re not careful to guard our hearts it will inevitably grow into something we maybe didn’t plan, but definite...

  Courage in the Face of Cultural Chaos, with John Stonestreet 21.10.2025 46мин

  A little over a month since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, believers are living in a chaotic culture still reeling from the fallout. How are we, as the Church, called to respond when everyone around us is looking for answers, and we know truth can only be found in the Gospel? John Stonestreet joins me on today’s episode of Fearless, discussing how we’re called to respond with clarity, courage, and conviction in these moments of upheaval. John serves as the president of the Colson Center...

  It’s Your Turn to Preach the Gospel, with Franklin Graham 16.10.2025 22мин

  In the wake of national tragedy, God has ensured the Gospel will continue to go forward—using Charlie Kirk’s assassination as a catalyst for renewal. Earlier this month, my dad—Franklin Graham—challenged those gathered at the annual Samaritan’s Purse Prescription for Renewal Conference to boldly preach the Gospel, just as Charlie did. Today on Fearless we’re bringing you his full talk from the medical missions conference—an encouragement for believers to be bold in standing for the Gospel dur...

  Running to the Fire, with Ken Isaacs 14.10.2025 51мин

  For over 30 years, Ken Isaacs has (literally) run into the fires of war, genocide, and natural disaster around the world. Serving with Samaritan’s Purse alongside my dad, Ken has seen and experienced evil so total, contrasted by miracles that have no explanation outside of the hand of God. Today on Fearless Ken shares the heart behind his new book—Running to the Fire—plus what led him to a life spent serving the Lord and going where God has called, even when there are no roads. From wi...
