  In this powerful episode of The Jesus People Podcast, 15-year-old evangelist David Hurst shares how God saved him at youth camp, called him on the spot to preach, and led him from a viral hallway sermon (10M+ views) to bold, truth-in-love evangelism, at Pride events, a Ramadan festival, malls, and school hallways.    We dive into Gen Z’s hunger, phone addiction and attention collapse, handling online hate, humility vs. platform, and learning to ask the Holy Spirit before every step. If you long to share Jesus with courage and compassion, this conversation will ignite you.   Key Highlights: Gen Z & Gen Alpha are spiritually hungry, why quick hits don’t satisfy Phone addiction, short attention spans, and turning screens into idols Salvation at youth camp → instant calling to evangelism Hallway open-air moment that went massively viral (and what came after) “Truth in love” at Pride: listening first, then sharing Jesus Becoming “all things to all people” at a Muslim festival Why they film: testimony at scale, not clout Handling hate, staying meek, and keeping motives pure Dreams for LA, school balance, and prayer for provision Support the persecuted church: Global Christian Relief (aid, Bibles, shelter). **Global Christian Relief empowers persecuted Christians in some of the world’s most dangerous places.

• Hillsong Celebrity Pastor’s Public fall into grace and restoration | Carl Lentz | The Jesus People Podcast Ep 41

  In this powerful episode of The Jesus People Podcast, Ryan sits down with Carl Lentz for an unflinching conversation about rise, collapse, and redemption—moving from public failure and hidden pain to a life rebuilt on grace, repentance, and restored family trust. Carl shares how secrecy magnifies sin, why “moral failure” language can obscure real repentance, and how gratitude became a daily bridge from grief to growth. He opens up about marriage repair with Laura, parenting through public scrutiny, the difference between performing for God and enjoying His presence, and why the gospel still moves forward through imperfect people. Key Highlights From platform to pit: when a “crash” becomes a rescue Repentance ≠ performance: a change of mind that changes life Why deleting past sermons after a fall misses the point Full disclosure in marriage: rebuilding trust without demanding it Parenting through pain: don’t shield kids—steward what they can carry Gratitude as a weapon: “I’m grateful…because now I can ____” From performance to presence: living unshaken by public opinion Practical hope for anyone rebuilding after betrayal or failure If you’re wrestling with shame, rebuilding a relationship, or wondering if God can use you after a fall, Carl’s story is a beacon: Jesus never changed, and grace still restores.

• He’s About to Fight Cancer Again: The Road Before Surgery with Dylan Mandel | Jesus People Ep 40

  On this Highway 1 “Road Trip Edition,” Dylan Mandel, recently re-diagnosed with cancer for the fourth time, opens up about expecting a miracle, living from the quiet place with Jesus, and walking in spiritual authority. From cliff jumps and steaks-for-breakfast to late-night intercession on a plane, Dylan shares why a scan won’t define his identity or dilute his faith.  We unpack Ephesians 3:20 (“far more abundantly”), the Centurion’s faith that made Jesus marvel, renewing the mind (Romans 12:2), and what real masculinity looks like: surrendered prayer when no one’s watching. If you’re battling fear, uncertainty, or illness, this conversation points you back to intimacy with God, surrendered timing, and bold, expectant prayer. Key Highlights: Fourth cancer diagnosis, and choosing faith over fear in real time “This year is Mine”: intimacy with Jesus as the source of all fruit When scans and faith collide: renewing the mind (Romans 12:2) Spiritual warfare & identity: fighting back with the Word Kingdom authority: living on offense (Matthew 28:18–20) Ephesians 3:20 hope: God is able to do more than we ask or imagine Masculinity redefined: prayer > performance (airplane intercession story) A prayer for listeners: unity, healing, and surrendered timing Support the persecuted church: Global Christian Relief (aid, Bibles, shelter). **Global Christian Relief empowers persecuted Christians in some of the world’s most dangerous places.

• Jonathan Pokluda’s journey of spiritual warfare, prayer, & hospital evangelism | The Jesus People Podcast Episode 39

  In this powerful hospital-room episode, Jonathan “JP” Pokluda (Lead Pastor, Harris Creek Baptist Church) unpacks how to share the gospel clearly—grace, not works—and why the door to evangelism is wide open right now.   From nurses and techs praying to receive Christ to a simple “1–10 certainty” question and JP’s unforgettable “tickets to the game” grace analogy, you’ll get practical, biblical tools to start conversations (“Do you have a faith?”), connect your story to the Cross, and lovingly bring people to a decision about Jesus (Eph 2:8–9; Rom 10:9; Jn 3:16). JP also shares a transparent health update (post-infectious myelitis) and how to walk in spiritual authority amid warfare—plus a call to pray and fast. Key Highlights Grace vs. works—why salvation is a gift (Ephesians 2:8–9) The “1–10” evangelism framework (Evangelism Explosion) that opens hearts The “tickets to the Mavs” illustration that makes grace unforgettable How to pivot any convo: “Can I ask you a question—do you have a faith?” Tell your testimony → connect it to the Cross (don’t stop short) Celebrate sharing; God does the saving (1 Cor 3:6–7) Spiritual warfare & authority (Eph 6; 1 Jn 4:4) without fear Workplace as mission field—be excellent at your craft and share Jesus JP’s health update and a corporate call to prayer & fasting If you’ve wanted to share your faith but felt unsure or awkward, this episode gives you clear language, Scripture, and confidence to do it with love and boldness. Scripture References: Ephesians 2:8–9; Romans 10:9; John 3:16; Revelation 12; Ephesians 6:10–18; 2 Corinthians 4:4; 1 John 4:4; Luke 10 (person of peace); Parable of the Soils. 🛐 Pray & Fast: If you’re able, consider fasting one day this week for JP’s full healing and for a fresh move of God on campuses and workplaces.
