This week, Granger sits down with Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family, for a heartfelt conversation about faith, family, and the work God is doing through everyday people. Granger shares how Focus on the Family shaped his own upbringing, even playing a voice message from his mom describing how the ministry prayed for their family through some of their hardest years. Jim responds with stories of his own, reflecting on how the ministry seeks to strengthen homes and reach people who feel unseen or overwhelmed.

As the conversation unfolds, the two talk about the importance of investing in young men and why this next generation is at the center of so many cultural battles. They discuss what real masculinity looks like, how the world often distorts it, and why raising strong, humble, Christ-centered men matters so deeply for families and churches.

Granger and Jim also take time to talk about marriage, purpose, and the value of bringing children into a world that feels increasingly unstable. Jim’s perspective is clear and encouraging — God places us exactly where and when He intends, and He equips parents to raise kids with courage and hope, even in difficult times.

It’s an honest and uplifting episode filled with wisdom, stories, and gratitude for the ministry that has touched so many families.

In this Friday Q&A, Granger answers two listener questions with honesty, clarity, and a whole lot of real-life wisdom.

First, he explains why he teaches his kids to say “yes sir” and “yes ma’am,” how it ties back to his own upbringing, and why he sees it as an act of love that prepares them for life, respect, and responsibility.

Then Granger responds to a college student dealing with a painful breakup and the uncertainty that follows. He offers straightforward biblical counsel on letting go, healing well, and moving forward with maturity instead of clinging to false hope.

Granger reacts to a viral video about fighting temptation, focusing on the battle against pornography and why this struggle has to be treated with the seriousness of a war.

He talks through the weight of sin, the reality that Christ absorbed God’s wrath on our behalf, and the practical steps believers can take to flee temptation. This includes accountability, tools like Covenant Eyes, removing access to triggering content, switching a phone to grayscale, and building spiritual layers of protection.

The conversation highlights the importance of preparing for the fight before temptation shows up and learning to live as a Christian on offense rather than defense.
