After the Goosebumps: How Real Revival Takes Root | # 24
True revival is much more than a stirring momentāit's the spark that ignites lasting transformation, fueled by a genuine movement of the Holy Spirit. In this episode, we explore how authentic revival doesn't end with an overwhelming spiritual experience; rather, that's just where it begins.
Together with Brian Rice, we unpack how revival must lead us deeperāto real discipleship, honest self-reflection, and the courage to confront our own sinfulness. Our hearts are being shaped well before any remarkable experience takes place, and this formation continues long after the initial wave of emotion has passed. Often, it's in the quiet, overlooked moments where true transformation blossoms.
Join us for an insightful conversation that invites you beyond spiritual highs toward lasting change. You'll discover the power of the Holy Spirit not only to inspire but also to sustain genuine renewal and growth.

Ditch the Hacks: Why Lasting Change Demands Slow Obedience in a Fast-Paced World | #23
I can recite scripture and even exegetically preach scripture, but do I know God? In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Brian Rice to explore this deeply personal question that resonates with many of us. Brian shares his journey through a wilderness of doubt and questioning, reminding us that knowing God transcends mere theological knowledge.
We discuss the reality that anything meaningful in lifeāwhether itās a strong marriage, raising kids, or finding joy in our workārequires a long, slow, and often challenging journey of spiritual formation. While weāre great at sowing seeds of faith, we often struggle with the crucial incubation period necessary for real growth.
In a fast-paced culture that tries to shape us, how can we ensure we're being formed by the living God? Join us as we uncover practical insights for deepening our relationship with Jesus amid lifeās chaos. This conversation is packed with vulnerability, hope, and a shared desire to know God more intimately. Don't miss it!

The Kingdom of God is Here - Are You Ready? (Mark 1:14-15) | #22
The wait is overāthe King has come, and His Kingdom is right here, right now. This isnāt only some distant hope or future promise; itās a living reality unfolding before our eyes. But are we paying attention?
In this episode, we dive into the life-changing truth that Jesus isnāt just waiting for something to happenāHeās actively transforming lives, breaking chains, and calling us into something far greater than we ever imagined. The Kingdom of God is here, and Heās inviting us to step into it.
Weāll explore how belief and repentance open the door to this Kingdom, why Jesus dwelling among us changes everything, and how so many miss out on true freedom by chasing distractions that lead nowhere. This conversation will challenge you to reexamine your life, break free from destructive habits, and align with the reality of Godās Kingdom.
The world is full of noise, but only one voice matters. Will you hear it?

From Ashes to Awakening: The Global Movement of Renewal | #21
Going off script today because the Spirit was moving in this conversation. Today, Zach, Brandon, and Jill talk about the beauty of falling on your face before the living God in repentance.
Perhaps this is a time in history when the church needs to be asking more questions and giving fewer answers. Zach shares a personal story of trial where he felt the Lord tell him to be quiet. Sometimes silence is the loudest form of transformation through sanctification.
This conversation is both convicting and uplifting. It points to a God who is ever-present and ever-nearāa God who wants to heal our land and transform our hearts.

The Temptation of Christ (Mark 1:12-13) - Part 2 | # 20
The conversation was too rich to cut short, so the trio is back for Part 2, diving even deeper into Jesus' temptation in the wilderness.

As they examine how Jesus wields Scripture against Satanās lies, the discussion reveals powerful insights about identity, obedience, and the nature of true victory.
