The Built Different Podcast with Dr. Zach Clinton

What if the biggest thing holding you back… is something you don’t even realize you believe? In this powerful conversation, Drs. Zach & Tim Clinton are joined by renowned speaker, Bible teacher, and bestselling author Jennie Allen, to talk about her newest book, The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe. Jennie challenges a reality most of us don’t often stop to consider: many of the struggles we face: fear, shame, insecurity, anxiety, etc. are rooted in lies we’ve unknowingly accepted as truth. And until those lies are exposed, we’ll keep circling the same patterns, the same frustrations, and the same sense of being stuck. Together, they unpack how these lies take root, how they quietly shape our identity, relationships, and even our view of God…and most importantly, how to break free. Jennie walks us through what she calls the enemy’s oldest strategy: deception. But this isn’t a conversation about fear, it’s about freedom. Because in Christ, we’ve already been given the authority to tear down those lies and replace them with truth. This episode isn’t about trying harder or modifying behavior. It’s about seeing clearly, thinking differently, and stepping into the freedom that’s already available to you. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same thoughts, the same struggles, or the same cycles, this conversation will help you identify what’s really going on beneath the surface… and how to finally break free.

In this powerful and personal conversation recorded live at the 2026 Ignite Men’s Impact Weekend, Dr. Zach Clinton and Ben Allison (CEO of the AACC) sit down with Washington Commanders wide receiver, Terry McLaurin, to talk about the journey behind the success which has been one marked by discipline, perseverance, faith, and identity. From growing up in Indianapolis to becoming “Mr. Football” in the state of Indiana, Terry’s path looked like one of early success. But what many don’t see is the season of waiting, humility, and development he walked through at Ohio State, where nothing was handed to him, and everything had to be earned. We talk about how those hidden years shaped his mindset, strengthened his faith, and prepared him for the NFL. Terry opens up about the power of discipline and daily habits, the role his parents played in shaping his character, and how setbacks, like being cut from a team, became fuel for growth instead of excuses. We also dive into deeper waters, discussing mental health and how God has consistently met Terry in the painful seasons of life. Most importantly, this conversation centers on identity. In a league where performance defines value, Terry shares how his relationship with Christ has grounded him in a deeper truth: your worth is not found in what you do, but in who you are in Him. Whether you're an athlete, leader, or someone navigating your own season of waiting, this episode will challenge and encourage you to stay faithful, stay disciplined, and trust God in the process.

In this powerful and deeply insightful conversation, Drs. Zach & Tim Clinton sit down with Bradley Geary - former Tactical Troop Commander for SEAL Team 6 and Commanding Officer of BUD/S - to unpack what it truly means to lead, endure, and find your identity beyond performance. Brad shares hard-earned lessons from the battlefield and the training ground, offering a rare look into the mindset required to operate at the highest level of discipline, resilience, and sacrifice. But more than that, this conversation goes beyond elite performance as it gets to the heart of who we are. They talk about the power of brotherhood and team, why isolation is one of the most dangerous places a person can live, and how true leadership is rooted in selflessness, not status. Bradley also opens up about the dark realities of combat, the emotional and spiritual weight it carries, and why those experiences, while costly, can also shape purpose and perspective. Perhaps most compelling is the growing movement of revival happening within the SEAL teams, and how many are beginning to wrestle with a deeper truth: your identity is not found in what you do, but in who God says you are. This episode is for leaders, competitors, and anyone striving for excellence, while trying to stay grounded in what matters most.

In this special Easter episode, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with Pastor Travis Johnson to discuss his powerful new book (Un)Embarrassed of Jesus: Follow From a Distance and Lose Your Faith; Follow Closely and Change the World. Travis challenges the quiet tension many Christians feel today where we are close enough to say we believe in Jesus, yet distant enough to avoid the cultural backlash that can come with truly following Him. Through the powerful story of Peter’s journey from denial to bold proclamation, we explore how spiritual distance slowly erodes faith while nearness to Christ produces courage, conviction, and transformation. Travis shares why this message is so urgent for the Church today and how ordinary believers can move from comfortable cultural Christianity to courageous, world-changing faith. This conversation is a timely Easter reminder that the resurrection doesn’t just invite belief…it calls us to follow Jesus boldly and without embarrassment.

In this conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with Bishop Kelvin Cobaris to talk about what it means to lead with courage and hope in a time when our culture feels increasingly divided, angry, and uncertain. Bishop Cobaris reflects on why choosing to be a light in dark times often comes with a cost and how courageous leadership has a way of inspiring and strengthening others to stand as well. Together, we explore the power of forgiveness, the importance of pursuing unity in the midst of division, and how spiritual transformation begins when God changes us from the inside out. Bishop Cobaris also shares his heart for the next generation and the kind of leaders our world desperately needs - leaders marked by humility, curiosity, courage, and compassion.
