Frank Turek on Charlie Kirk’s Legacy & Why Christianity Is Still True!

Описание: Why are so many young people questioning their faith—and what does it take to confront the toughest questions about God, truth, and culture? For today’s conversation, Pastor Greg Laurie talks with Christian apologist—and mentor to the late Charlie Kirk—Frank Turek for an honest, timely conversation about faith, evidence, and the future of the church.

Together, Pastor Greg and Frank dig deep into what’s fueling today’s “deconstruction” trend among Christian youth, why so many leave the church after high school, and how technology, college campuses, and cultural pressures challenge the foundations of belief. No question is off-limits: from “Does science contradict the Bible?” to “Why does God allow suffering?” and “How do we respond to the transgender movement?”—every topic is handled with compassion and real-world insight.

Frank also talks about his friend and mentee, Charlie Kirk, reflecting on his legacy and the explosive spiritual awakening our country has experienced following his tragic passing. This conversation isn’t just for pastors or intellectuals—instead it’s for anyone seeking to grow in faith, love for their neighbor, and meaningfully engage as believers unafraid to compromise in a changing world.
