In this week’s episode of the Granger Smith Podcast, Granger sits down with Kirk Cameron for a wide-ranging conversation on family, faith, and the life of the church.

They share about family rhythms, Sunday dinners, and the importance of fellowship before moving into deeper discussions about worship, what church gatherings are meant to be, and how Christians can stay rooted in a culture that often feels hostile to their faith.

Granger and Kirk also talk about the blessings of cultural Christianity and make an important distinction: cultural Christianity isn’t the same as being a “lukewarm Christian.” Rather, it points to the benefit of living in a society shaped by Christian values, even while rejecting the idea of half-hearted faith.

Later in the episode, they respond to an email about a headline out of China describing a “pregnancy robot” being developed with an artificial womb. They ask what this technology might mean for families, infertility, and most importantly, God’s design for life.

It’s an episode filled with personal stories, church history, and honest reflection on how faith speaks into the modern world.

This week on the Granger Smith Podcast, we tackle one of the wildest conspiracy theories floating around: Project Blue Beam. Is there really a plan to use advanced holograms, UFO stories, and staged events to create a one-world government—or even fake the Second Coming of Christ?

Granger and Ant dig into the history of this theory, how modern technology fuels it, and why believers shouldn’t live in fear. Instead of getting lost in speculation, we go straight to Scripture to see what God’s Word actually says about truth, deception, and the real return of Jesus.

Along the way, we also share updates on the upcoming live podcast tour with Granger and Amber, talk about Amber’s upcoming book release, and answer listener emails that keep the conversation raw, real, and relevant. If you’ve ever wondered how to sort through conspiracies, keep your faith grounded, and find peace in uncertain times—this episode is for you.

This week on the Granger Smith Podcast, Granger, Amber, and AntMan tackle a thought-provoking (and surprisingly encouraging) voicemail from a listener who passionately dislikes Granger’s faith and his mentions of Jesus on the air. Together, they break down the message through a biblical lens, discussing what it means to be “hated for your faith” and why such opposition is expected for believers. They share Scripture, personal stories, and even a perspective from outspoken atheist Penn Jillette on why Christians should share the gospel.

The episode also includes a big announcement — the podcast is going on the road for a live tour this fall — plus an update on Amber’s upcoming book The Girl on the Bathroom Floor. It’s a conversation about criticism, conviction, and the hope that even one life changed for Christ makes it all worth it.

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, Granger dives headfirst into a bold question from a listener: "Is Donald Trump the Antichrist?" Using Scripture as the foundation, Granger breaks down what the Bible actually says about the Antichrist, false prophets, and the spirit of deception—offering a biblically grounded, thoughtful response that avoids sensationalism.

Alongside co-host AntMan, the two reflect on the aftermath of Ant’s recent health scare, discuss the ins and outs of producing After MidNite, and make a big announcement: The Granger Smith Podcast is going on tour! They share where they’re headed, who’s coming along, and what listeners can expect from this live, in-person experience.

Later in the show, they answer a heartfelt email from a 21-year-old struggling with doubt, heartbreak, and his relationship with God. The conversation is raw, encouraging, and packed with practical advice about surrender, spiritual disciplines, and how God uses trials to shape us.

If you've ever wrestled with faith, community, or purpose—or just want clarity on a viral theological claim—this episode is for you.

Granger welcomes a very special guest, his 13-year-old daughter, London, fresh off their latest short-term mission trip to a remote, unnamed country in Latin America. What begins as a story of gospel proclamation and cultural immersion quickly unfolds into a powerful testimony of faith, hardship, and divine provision.

Together, they recount their challenging trek through rugged mountains, tent camping in the jungle, filtered river water, spiritist encounters, and gospel conversations with villagers who had never heard the name of Jesus. Granger shares the importance of proclaiming—not just presenting—the gospel, and how discipling local missionaries brings lasting impact.

But the story doesn’t end there. On their return home, a once-in-a-lifetime storm derails their journey in dramatic fashion, stranding them in Atlanta with no luggage, no hotel, and no way out. What follows is a chaotic but providential journey involving canceled flights, closed doors, a stranger at a gas station, and an Uber ride that turns into a divine appointment.

This isn’t just an episode about a mission trip. It’s a testimony to the goodness of God—even when everything falls apart.

This week’s episode is a deeply personal and reflective one. Granger, Parker, and AntMan sit down to remember the life and legacy of Pastor John MacArthur, who recently passed away. They share stories about his bold, unwavering commitment to biblical truth, how his sermons impacted their faith, and why his voice stood out in a culture full of compromise.

Granger also opens up about AntMan’s recent stroke and how it became a moment of clarity and conviction. Together, they unpack Scripture—specifically John 5—and discuss what it means to give yourself fully to God, to live a life that’s not your own, and to offer your body as a living sacrifice.

Later in the episode, the guys respond to an honest listener question from someone struggling with spiritual numbness, doubt, and disconnection from God. If you’ve ever felt distant from your faith or unsure how to return, this conversation will meet you where you are.

This is a raw, honest episode filled with hope, Scripture, and heartfelt encouragement for anyone walking through the valley.

In this heartfelt episode, Granger and Tyler get real about grief, hope, and what it means to look forward after losing a loved one. The guys start off sharing news about the new podcast Instagram and some behind-the-scenes updates, but quickly dive deep into personal stories—reflecting on the recent loss of their grandmother, her remarkable life growing up in West Texas, and how grief changes when you’re rooted in Christ.

From the rise of AI and how technology is changing our relationship with memory and loss, to practical conversations about the dangers of living in the past and the promise of eternal life, this episode wrestles honestly with what it means to say goodbye—and why, for Christians, it’s never really goodbye forever. Tyler opens up about processing his first loss as a born-again believer and Granger shares biblical wisdom from John 21 and 1 Thessalonians, pointing listeners to the hope found in Jesus rather than just memories or even the people we miss most.

The episode also tackles listener questions—like how to love a spouse who isn’t yet a believer, and advice for a 17-year-old longing for marriage and family. Through it all, Granger and Tyler emphasize the importance of patience, prayer, and contentment in every season.

If you’re grieving, feeling stuck in the past, or just need a reminder of the hope we have in Christ, this one’s for you. Hit play and be encouraged to fix your eyes forward—because the best really is yet to come.

On this week’s Granger Smith Podcast, Granger sits down with Christian hip-hop artist, spoken word poet, and all-around encourager, Dillon Chase—and the conversation is as real as it gets.

From the Texas panhandle to the heart of Oklahoma, Dillon shares his powerful testimony of growing up surrounded by addiction and pain, and how those hard roads ultimately led him straight to Jesus. Dillon gets honest about what it means to suffer as a Christian—walking through special needs parenting, prodigal children, and the reality that following Christ doesn’t mean life gets easier. In fact, sometimes the suffering goes even deeper, but God’s goodness is always greater.

The guys talk about the transformation that happens when you move from “knowing about God” to really knowing Him, how true discipleship changes everything, and why the local church—and having real spiritual mentors—matters so much. Dillon opens up about his journey from secular rap to using his music and spoken word as a platform for the gospel, with encouragement from Christian hip-hop legend Lecrae and a passion to see lives changed, not just entertained.

They dive into the messy beauty of church history, denominations, expository preaching, and how reading the Bible for more than just “comfort” can actually confront, challenge, and reshape our lives. Plus, Dillon performs a moving spoken word piece live on the show. If you’ve ever wrestled with suffering, struggled with church hurt, or wondered how to hold onto hope when life gets hard, this episode will encourage and equip you.

Listen in for:

➡️ A raw, unfiltered testimony about faith in the fire
➡️ Why “suffering is temporary, but God’s goodness is forever” (2 Corinthians 4)
➡️ Behind-the-scenes stories from the Christian music world
➡️ The life-changing impact of discipleship and community
➡️ How God can redeem even the darkest parts of our story

Check out Dillon’s music on all platforms and stay tuned for his upcoming album, “Not Destroyed.”

Subscribe, rate, and share this episode if it resonates—because someone you know probably needs this hope, too.
