Bear Grylls has built a career taking people into the places where the real conversations happen — not the two-minute chat show slot where nobody asks about faith, but the mountaintop at sunset, the canyon at dusk, the forest trail where walls come down and people start talking about what actually matters. His new Prime Video series Chosen in the Wild takes the cast and crew of The Chosen into exactly those places, and Bear says what he has seen in these actors surprised him — many of them were not people of faith when they joined the show, and the transformation has been genuine.

Faith kept simple, the wilderness as a place of encounter, and a show that has changed the people who made it: Bear shares why he keeps his own faith uncomplicated — say sorry, ask for help, say thank you — and why he believes there is a hunger for this kind of conversation everywhere he goes in the world. He also reflects on why sitting beside a river, walking through a forest, or watching a sunset with someone you love is just as sacred as anything that happens inside a building, and why he has learned long ago that a man is never as tall as when he kneels.

• His advice to young people who want to follow their hearts — fail a lot, build good people around you, and keep faith close
