Aristotle said, "Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others." But what does it REALLY mean to have courage? Frank sits down with author and speaker, Heidi St. John, to discuss how to overcome fear in a world full of hostility towards biblical Christianity. From surviving childhood abuse, cancer, and severe anxiety to homeschooling her seven children and even running for Congress, Heidi has learned firsthand how God uses trials to deepen our faith and push us outside our comfort zones. Together, Frank and Heidi unpack what real courage looks like, why Christians need it now more than ever, and how to instill it in others (especially our kids!). They tackle questions like: -- Why is courage the foundation for living out our Christian faith? -- Is courage simply the absence of fear? -- What's the best way Christian parents can model courage for their children? -- What does it mean to "fear" the LORD? -- How did Heidi go from panic to public speaking? -- Why is Gen Z experiencing revival right now? -- Why does God allow us to face fear, pain, and suffering? -- How does the Bible help us develop a theology of suffering? -- What surprising conversation did Heidi have with Donald Trump? -- Why should Christian families swap Scholastic for BRAVE Books? If you’re struggling with fear or wondering how to raise bold kids in a world full of compromise, this episode will encourage you to trust God, take courage, and stand firm in the truth!
