Growing up as a Graham, Accepting Your Calling and Leaving a Powerful Legacy – with Franklin Graham

Cissie Graham Lynch, Franklin Graham

What do you want your legacy to be? For the past five years, I’ve shared about what it means to live fearlessly for your faith in a world that wants to destroy Biblical values. I’ve been able to do this because of the godly legacy that my grandparents and parents have passed down – that God is faithful to those who never compromise the Gospel.

Today, my dad, Franklin Graham, is joining me to answer questions I’ve never asked him before about his life, what he wants his legacy to be, his relationship with his parents, and how God changed his life 50 years ago in Israel.

Thank you for being a part of the #FearlessPodcast whether this is your first episode or you’ve been along for this journey for the last five years. I hope we can continue the conversations we have, helping you have a fearless faith in a compromising culture.

The Most Important Song of the Season (Ep. 149)

Cissie G

When you think about Christmas, what is the song that is the soundtrack for this season of your life? Maybe it’s Joy to the World, O Holy Night, or White Christmas. But have you ever thought about the very first Christmas song that was ever sung? A lot of us would probably think it's Hark! The Herald Angels Sing from Luke 2:14. But that wasn't the first Christmas song. The first Christmas song actually came nine months before that – it was Mary's song. This time of year isn’t the same for everyone. There are many who struggle with the holidays and many who may be coming out of a season of suffering. Today on Fearless, I’m taking a look at Mary’s story. I hope it is a reminder that, despite what we have going on, we are to be like Mary and praise God despite our worldly circumstances.

Don’t Let Yesterday’s Nostalgia Rob You of Today’s Blessings (Ep. 148)

Cissie Graham Lynch, Will Graham

Every family and community has their own traditions and our family is no different. From Christmas traditions to everyday habits, we have built things that our family holds so dear. But this year I have been really thinking about when traditions can become a distraction from our ultimate purpose - to know and be known by God. How do we create an environment that builds traditions that move us closer to God? How do we avoid making the “Good ‘Ole Days” into an idol that robs us of the blessings that God has for us in the present? On today’s episode of Fearless I am joined by my brother, Wil Graham, to talk about traditions.

The Mistake I Made at My Wedding (Ep. 147)

Cissie Graham Lynch, Casey Helmick, Julie Lyles Carr

Many years ago I had a decision to make – should I invite kids to my wedding or not? Brides can have such a vision for how they want their big day to go but do we allow this “picture perfect” dream to get in the way of showing kids the beauty of weddings and marriage? Bigger than this one day, do Christians cut children out of critical moments that can show them what we really hold dear? On today’s episode I bring on a few behind-the-scenes friends to help me have a discussion about how we should “walk the talk” of what we believe as Christians.
