How does a suicidal 17-year-old battling anxiety, depression, and doubts about God's existence, become the founder of his own ministry and one of today's most influential young evangelists five years later? Since 2024, Bryce Crawford has already reached 2 billion people through digital media and is filling venues around the country at just 22-years old. But Bryce isn't interested in building a platform for himself. Instead, he's using his influence to reach a generation searching for truth, purpose, and hope in Christ—even when it means stepping into environments where rejection, ridicule, and hostility are almost guaranteed. Together, Frank and Bryce answer questions like: -- What life-changing moment happened when Bryce was in eighth grade and sent him into a deep spiral of depression? -- What was the desperate prayer that completely changed his life at age 17? -- How did Bryce become such a positive influence and effective communicator for the Gospel in only five years? -- Why does Bryce intentionally go to places where Christianity is often unwelcome and what keeps him going when he faces rejection and hostility? -- How can older generations be more effective when it comes to reaching Gen Z for Christ? -- Why are some of America's most secular cities like Boston and New York filling up venues to hear what Bryce has to say? -- What surprising (and shocking) encounters has Bryce had while evangelizing at public events? -- What kind of fruit has emerged from years of evangelism in places most believers would never go? -- How do apologetics, truth, and grace all work together to bring people closer to the saving grace of Jesus Christ? -- What is the "ministry of presence" and why has it become one of Bryce's most effective outreach tools? From crowded city streets, college campuses, pride events, gay bars, and everywhere in between, Bryce's ministry is a powerful reminder that people are often far more open to the Gospel than we think. His story challenges Christians of every generation to move beyond fear, meet people where they are, and lovingly point them to the freedom and hope found in Christ.

"God can slay the giants in your life!" Is that REALLY the moral of the story when it comes to the infamous historical account of David and Goliath? Get ready as Frank peels back the curtain and reveals the hidden meaning behind the Bible's most famous showdown in 1 Samuel 17. Tune is as he digs into the history, archaeology, and related Bible verses from this remarkable victory while answering questions like: -- What is biblical typology, what are some examples, and why is it important? -- Does archaeology correlate with the biblical accounts of Goliath and the existence of giants? -- How does David's role as Israel's champion point to Jesus? -- If David points to Jesus, to whom is Goliath pointing? -- Why did David take Goliath's head to Jerusalem? -- What is the first prophecy in the Bible and how does it relate to David and Goliath? -- What are chiasms and how do they demonstrate the divine nature of the Bible? -- Which Bible verses help us understand the deeper meaning behind this historical account? -- How do you summarize the Bible in 3 short sentences? -- Why did God weave prophecy into history instead of spelling everything out plainly? -- How is the Bible the greatest apologetics tool of all time? -- What do the Bible's thousands of cross-references reveal about its remarkable design? If you've ever wondered how the Old Testament connects to the New Testament, this episode brings the pieces together in a fascinating way. Once you see what's happening beneath the surface of David and Goliath, you will never read it the same way again!
