While the singer did not share additional details about Sonny\u2019s birth, the joy was evident in both his words and photos.<\/p>\n<p>The Franks first announced they were expecting again in October, with Frank teasing fans by writing, \u201cBaby #2 coming soon!\u201d For many supporters, the announcement felt like a natural extension of the themes Frank often sings about\u2014faith, family, gratitude, and trusting God through every season.<\/p>\n<p>That message has resonated strongly with listeners. Frank has quickly become one of the most influential voices in Christian music, thanks to a string of viral hits and chart-topping albums. His song \u201cYour Way\u2019s Better\u201d broke into the Billboard Hot 100 in 2025 and was later certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. His albums &#8220;Child of God&#8221; and &#8220;Child of God II&#8221; finished as the No. 1 and No. 2 Christian albums, respectively, on Billboard\u2019s 2025 year-end charts.<\/p>\n<p>Frank also swept major honors at the GMA Dove Awards, taking home Artist of the Year, Pop\/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year, and Pop\/Contemporary Album of the Year. Collaborations with artists like Cory Asbury, Crowder, Josiah Queen, and The Figs have further expanded his reach.<\/p>\n<p>In 2026, Frank will take that momentum on the road with The Jesus Generation Tour, featuring Tori Kelly, Cory Asbury, and The Figs. Nearly 90 percent of tickets sold out during presale, signaling just how strong the demand has become.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his rising fame, Frank frequently points back to God\u2019s guidance in his personal life. During an appearance at Liberty University, he shared the story of how he met Grace on a mission trip he almost didn\u2019t take. \u201cFollowing the Lord\u2014if I hadn\u2019t done that, He wouldn\u2019t have given me this beautiful bride,\u201d Frank said, reflecting on how obedience shaped his future.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as he balances sold-out tours with sleepless nights and diaper changes, Frank\u2019s testimony continues to unfold\u2014one rooted not just in music, but in family, faith, and gratitude for God\u2019s timing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contemporary Christian music star Forrest Frank is celebrating a joyful new season both at home and in his music, as he and his wife Grace Frank have welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Sonny Neil Frank.
