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.
