Coming Soon! 🎙️ New Episode of Wisdom & Influence Podcast – Episode 18 with Edward Graham

“If you love someone, you’re willing to speak truth to them… not with your opinion, but let the Word of God speak for itself.”

In this powerful clip, Edward Graham (Chief Operating Officer of Samaritan’s Purse, former Army Ranger, and Billy Graham’s grandson) shares a bold reminder: real love confronts with Scripture, not anger or opinion — because there’s unmatched power in God’s truth.

Tune in for Edward’s full conversation with Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riaño, where he opens up about his faith journey, lessons from combat and leadership, the centrality of the Gospel at Samaritan’s Purse, navigating cultural challenges, and how God prepares us for seasons of transition.

Episode releases Tuesday, June 9 at 10 AM on our YouTube channel!
