Forrest Frank's First Podcast EVER Talks Hit Song "Altar", Family Life & New Music!

[@shesapp2297]

Gained even more respect for him as an artists and husband. He loves the Lord and it’s so evident how God has used him. It’s amazing💗

[@paullopez2021]

He really does. When I saw him in concert, my impression of him was that he could’ve been a pastor if he wasn’t a musician.

[@elevationyth]

amen

[@angeljazt22]

Yessss 🙌🏽 agreed!!

[@shonnamiller9468]

“In the same way that Christian’s have sacrificed their value systems to absorb worldly art, the world is going to sacrifice their value systems to absorb Christian art” 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@elevationyth]

🙌

[@tferry05]

I see this happening so much right now and it makes me excited for the kingdom of god to keep growing from this.

[@graczkowskifamily]

Mind blown

[@TheEncouragementKid]

yeah that's fire

[@paullopez2021]

This man has a way of bringing you closer to Christ. Met him once before at a Surfaces show - and I could immediately tell he was serious about his faith. Wanna know something wild? I’m watching this - and I can hear God telling me “save that drill beat you made for Forrest.”

[@browneyez1559]

Hope to hear it on a song 🎉

[@angeljazt22]

Agreed 🙌🏽 it is really 🆒 to see them giving back to their community and their roots. Amen 🙏🏽

[@socb5642]

That just might be your own thought. Becareful man

[@AQuillIsNeverAlone]

Always love listening to Forrest's song "Rainbows" when times are tough or weird. Not to overly romanticize suffering, but sometimes we need that rain to love the rainbows. The holes and flaws in our lives are where the light can shine in.

[@browneyez1559]

Been listening to Good day and God is good on repeat all morning since I heard them last night ❤

[@amandaflematti3360]

I am a 41-year-old Mom of three boys and one daughter and my daughter had showed me one of the songs on the way home from Lifegroup tonight. And I was like who is this guy? This is awesome and then I ended up staying up watching this podcast and I was so blessed. I have longed for purity to return to worship, and I do believe you’re right that the secular is actually going to want what you have.

[@sophiajaramillo3246]

literally ever song of forrests is a banger

[@elevationyth]

literally

[@angeljazt22]

Yessss issa vibe!!!

[@ms55780]

I'll never forget his shout out to God at a Surfaces concert. The place erupted. Truly admire his courage and straight up talent as a musician.

[@elevationyth]

🙌

[@angeljazt22]

Yessss!! When an artist is a child of God; it oozes through their music like what @Tori Kelly said!!!

[@RuguBlue]

What concert was that at? I was wondering recently if they ever sang about / mentioned God at a Surfaces concert. Is there a recording? I'd love to watch it ;)

[@ms55780]

@RuguBlue Minneapolis in 2021. I don't believe there's a recording though.

[@kamrynbacon928]

I didn't even know forrest's early stuff was considered secular. so beautiful. Surfaces got me and my ol lady into kingdom music in general. Life changing.

[@elevationyth]

🙌

[@DiodeMom]

YESSS I was listening to all kinds of secular music all my life; fast forward to around 2020 and I started getting, idk, tired of hearing the cursing and negativity that was coming down the pike along with a certain illness, in my music. I made a “surprisingly clean” playlist of secular songs on Spotify and one day one of the recommendations (I guess bc there were a few Surfaces songs on my playlist) was “UP…” I added it and sent it to my daughter bc she also had a “clean” secular music playlist. My life and my attitude changed listening to that song. For a few months after that I didn’t even know it wasn’t “actually” a secular song! (?) I guess ole Lucy didn’t want me to find all the other Forrest songs lol. Next song I listened to was “Good Day” then it was like the floodgates opened. God is TRULY using Forrest for His kingdom. It’s like bc of Surfaces fame with “Sunday Best,” God had a plan in place the whole time to sneak the songs glorifying HIS NAME and HIS SON into our fallen culture. Does that make sense? Anyway, Dear Father in Heaven please bless Forrest and all his collaborators and every other artist glorifying you with music. I pray that you keep them safe, increase their (Your) influence on unbelievers, and through them, usher in a new era of young people who love You. In Jesus’ Holy Name! Psalm 105:2-4 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. 3 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice. 4 Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. Ephesians 5:18-20 “…. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

[@grahamsale8015]

I grew up with Forrest and the Frank family. My family and his were really close growing up as we were both home schooled. We were super close as kids and we took so many vacations together. I haven’t talked to him since I was 14 and it’s absolutely wild to see him blown up like this and I couldn’t be happier for him. As a Christian too I love what he’s doing

[@ippsofacto]

Have you been keeping up with it all since Surfaces started, or when his Christian music took off? Must be so crazy to see such a familiar face in this way

[@grahamsale8015]

@@ippsofacto yeah I remember last time I saw Forrest was on a ski trip when I was about 13/14 (I’m 29 now) Then I remember seeing him make music on sound cloud back in like 2017. I literally watched his rise and it was pretty cool to see. A few years ago I ran into his parents at a restaurant and they invited me to sit down with them and talk and we caught up for a while and it was really cool hearing his story from his dad.

[@paullopez2021]

was he always this empathetic and nice? i was in a rough mental space when I went to his meet and greet, and he couldn't have been more gracious. this dude even stood up for me when security was being a bit rude w me. he probably forgot that small act of kindness, but I'll remind him of it if/when I get to meet him again.

[@grahamsale8015]

@@paullopez2021that’s a really cool story! Yeah as a kid he was super nice and caring. I remember being around other “bratty kids” growing up and he was the complete opposite. Man one of these days it would be cool to reconnect with him. I have so many photos of our families together from like ages 4-13 lol

[@grahamsale8015]

@@ippsofactoyeah I’ve been keeping up. 2 summers ago I was out at a restaurant with some friends and I ran into his parents. They invited me to sit with them and we caught up for a while and his dad told me his whole upcoming story. It was pretty cool

[@AG-cf4wn]

Forest has a good spirit about him! Love your music!

[@paullopez2021]

Idk how he does it but he makes everyone in his close proximity feel like he’s that friend you don’t see v often bc he’s so busy.

[@elevationyth]

🙌

[@angeljazt22]

Yes 🙌🏽 agreed! How vocal he is about his love for God and his faith is so ADMIRABLE!!!

[@jacquelinedee18]

He’s so pure and truly loves God and that’s why God uses him so much. His life is completely surrendered to God, it’s such a beautiful thing! It’s just the beginning for what God has for him! I loved this podcast!!!!!! ❤

[@paullopez2021]

I teared up several times, watching this. Took me back to the Surfaces concert. God absolutely used Forrest to alleviate the anxiety I felt from a toxic job I was at. I’m blessed to have shaken his hand and been in the front row. I love this dude.

[@elevationyth]

🙌

[@angeljazt22]

So true!! Facts 💯

[@angeljazt22]

@@paullopez2021 I can relate! When I found his music, I couldn’t help but feel closer to God through his music 🙌🏽

[@createoften]

You are laughing but Forest has the spiritual gift of feelings. That's why he won't charge for a massage. God helps him feel the tension of another and because of his anointing he can help Spiritually remove that because he feels it and it with his gift remove it. What an incredible gift God has given him! Forest, just remember to give all that tension removed back to God so it doesn't stay with you. God is using you in powerful ways! 🎉

[@paullopez2021]

You know, I'm starting to think Forrest is my generation's Fred Rogers. He is so sweet and pure-hearted and full of love.

[@Luxiedee13]

It’s called empathy and in this day and age, it truly is a gift from God.

[@QueenB-72]

I agree! Forrest is definitely anointed...I am so happy to have found him on KZbin! Praise God for his parents and family...love seeing this for the younger generation!

"what would you say to someone who says christian music is corny?" "give us one more year" 😂😂😂❤

It takes time to really foster that personal connection with God. Similar to therapy, you have to put in the time and effort to seek Him and talk to Him. 🙌🏽

Straight up my fave pod, loved this from beginning to end

[@elevationyth]

so good to hear

[@mystics1144]

Been listening to Forrest for years now. I’m not religious but I’m always in awe of him and his faith in God.

Never stop learning from our God Almighty. He has blessed you so much of many great talent @Forrest Frank if music didn't work out we would be a colleague here in Abbott Laboratories and I can also massage and feel the spasms of the body that i massage hahaha.. Praise God indeed!🥰

[@angeljazt22]

AMEN 🙏🏽

[@DiodeMom]

35:22 I have the answer…there are A LOT more Christ followers in the world than we know. A lot of us have been waiting for Christian “Pop” instead of just church praise music (nothing wrong with traditional praise music but idk it all sort of has the same sound after a while). I have had a Spotify playlist forever, I started making back in like 2010 I think, called Jesus Bars and it of course has Lecrae, FLAME, Andy Mineo, Trip Lee, Wande, Tre Gadd, etc but having Hulvey, Forrest, & Caleb Gordon has brought it to a new level.

[@unboundfull]

Thank you Forrest for sharing your gift! Thank you Jesus and I love you he is coming soon👑💚😇

It's always nice when there's a chiropractor or massage therapist on a tour or one-off (crew signs up for a session). Those are the best tours to be on. I can't say that I've ever heard of the headliner 'doing' the chiro or massage therapy. Most headliners don't want the crew on the tour to look them in the eye--let alone to give them a massage. 😇

i really love the information they got out of forrest. i've been a fan of his music for a really long time. been listening since his surfaces days (i think they're ongoing?) his forrest. days and now his forrest frank days. so it's really great to hear all this info they pulled out of him. i like that he seems like a really normal guy who has prioritized the things that really matter in life, pretty inspiring. some critique for the interviewers. i'm glad they got this info out of forrest but i truly hated they way they spoke. they weren't very articulate in their communication and they were very yes-man to ANYTHING forrest said. didn't feel like they were actually engaging with him. also, i don't know much about this podcast, i came here for forrest, it just feels like most of these guys are fresh out of high school. this podcast didn't feel very professional. felt like a bunch of kind of high (high on the holy spirit?) guys having an overlapping conversation. i don't mean that to be super harsh but i hope it's some valuable criticism that y'all can take forward with you.

[@sophiavictoria8754]

also i know he mentioned his older music was secular, and i know what he means, music that wasn't explicitly christian. but i will say, when i was getting into surfaces, as i was listening through their discography i could FEEL that the musicians were christian. something about it.

Whoever did the color grading / exposure with the cameras on this needs practice. It keeps fading in and out of exposure and color. You need to set it so you match the same Kelvin color temperature, and expose for the faces, and then color grade with a rec 709 lut or however you do it
