Community is more than a group of people you spend time with — it is one of the most vital parts of your spiritual and mental well-being. In this minisode, I talk about what true Christian community looks like, why God designed us to need one another, and how serving others actually strengthens your own heart, faith, and identity in Christ. I even share some personal stories about the power of community in my life. If you’ve ever struggled to find your people, felt disconnected, or wondered what “biblical community” really means. This minisode will encourage you, challenge you, and help you take a practical step toward a deeper, healthier connection. If this episode speaks to you, share it with someone who may be feeling alone or overwhelmed. We were never meant to walk this life by ourselves.

In this minisode, I’m coming to you from what feels like week 37 of being sick (okay, slight exaggeration, but still!). Today we’re talking about something I’ve been thinking about ever since my conversation with Dan Parr and his brand-new EUR Bible translation: Which translation of the Bible is “the best one”?

A new bible translation can set off alarms, and that’s a healthy response. Today, I have an open and honest conversation with voice actor and translator Dan Parr. We discuss my apprehensions about a new bible translation and how God gave him a purpose and calling during a season of job loss. The Easy to Understand Read Bible (EUR) was born out of his obedience, and it's designed to help people know the bible on a deeper level. Dan's Easy to Understand Read Bible translation is ideal for anyone new to walking with God and seeking a simple but accurate version of the Bible.

In today’s minisode, I'm talking about something many believers forget: you cannot pour into others if you’re spiritually empty yourself. We love serving, giving, encouraging, and showing up for the people God places in our lives… but who is pouring into you? Are you allowing space for God to refill your heart, renew your strength, and speak life back into you? If you’ve been feeling drained, overlooked, or spiritually depleted, this minisode will remind you that your soul matters too. You are worth being poured into, refreshed, and strengthened. Let this be your permission today to slow down, breathe, and let God bless you—so you can continue blessing others from a place of fullness.

What if your most profound shame became the place God builds your purpose and calling? Former ski coach Brian Seim shares how hidden addiction shattered his life and how grace and belonging, a Christ centered family, and Celebrate Recovery rebuilt him from the inside out. This powerful episode explores how Christian men can trust God during difficult times, why grace and belonging precede behavior, and how genuine brotherhood breaks isolation and brings about lasting transformation.

When church feels more like a brand than a community, perhaps God is showing us that we need spiritual clarity and should return to the basics. In this conversation with Tom Snow, we explore the importance of spiritual clarity and what happens when believers begin to test everything against Scripture rather than habit. Tom’s challenge is simple but unsettling: what if the real church isn’t built on systems or salaries, but on surrender? This episode calls us to re-center our faith on Christ as the living standard, not institutional comfort, and to rediscover worship that flows from the Spirit, not from structure.

Today, I explore how our pursuit of health can become a form of control when we forget who sustains us. No matter how disciplined we are with diet, exercise, or wellness routines, our health remains in God’s hands. True peace comes when we release fear and start learning to trust His perfect timing even in matters of sickness, healing, and death. Through honest reflection and faith-centered encouragement, I remind listeners that our hope is in the Savior who gives us life.
