“Making a Difference Before You’re Supposed To” | Hope for the Next Generation, Dr. Jeff Myers, and Honoring the Legacy of Charlie Kirk — Unfolding Short Stories: 87
Dr. Jeff Meyers of Summit Ministries has spent years helping young people face hard questions, discern truth, and find their identity in Christ. Charlie Kirk longed to be remembered for courage in his faith, and part of that courage was speaking to students directly. His voice has now been silenced, but the legacy of reaching the rising generation continues. In this episode, Jeff shares stories of young adults moving from confusion to conviction, from hardness of heart to lives transformed by Jesus. God is still raising up voices. And the hope of tomorrow is clear: He is not done with young people. Jeff also introduces his new book with Dr. Kathy Koch, Raising Gender Confident Kids. 👉 Order the book here

Walker Hayes: From ‘Fancy Like’ to Faith – His Story of Transformation: Page 251
He was an alcoholic atheist and a country artist whose life was falling apart. Walker Hayes had written off faith and was running out of hope. Then came Craig—a friend whose relentless love, years of kindness, generosity, and one unforgettable gift made Walker start asking a question he’d avoided his whole life: What if Jesus really is who He says He is? In this episode of The Unfolding, Walker shares his journey from brokenness to belief, and how his heart of stone began to soften in the most unexpected ways. You probably know Walker for his hit song Fancy Like, which went seven-times platinum. He just made his Grand Ole Opry debut, released his new album 17 Problems, and is soon heading out on his Unplugged Tour. But behind all the success is a deeper story of friendship, unexpected grace, and a transformation he never saw coming.

Sheila and Jack Harper – “The Jesus Who Forgives the Sin of Abortion” | Unfolding Short Stories
“We decided that we are two hot messes and we would just be better off if we made one big hot mess.” That is how Jack and Sheila described their marriage in the middle of brokenness, after Sheila carried the weight of abortion for seven years and Jack battled decades of alcoholism. But God stepped in. A Bible study introduced Sheila to “a Jesus who forgives the sin of abortion.” And in church one morning, Jack heard God whisper, “I will take you by the hand and lead you home.” From their ashes, God planted Save One, “helping men, women, and families recover after abortion.” Today, what He did for Sheila and Jack is bringing hope to thousands.

Darin Kinder: Secret Service Agent Inside the World Trade Center on 9/11: Page 250
Darin Kinder was a U.S. Secret Service agent working inside the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. After the first tower was hit, he and fellow agents helped people evacuate. When Tower 2 began to collapse, Darin thought, “I’m dead.” His next thought, one he believes came from the Holy Spirit, was a single word: “Run.” That split-second decision began his mad dash for life. But this story is about much more than survival. Darin shares how that day became a turning point in his faith and calling, and why he believes each of us is uniquely designed by God to live courageously and with purpose. This story will not only help you remember 9/11, you’ll also be encouraged to believe that God has a plan for your life and that He will give you the courage to go wherever He leads. Darin is the founder of Fierce Faith Ministries and author of “Bury Me in a Dirty Suit: Discovering Man’s Valiant Purpose in the Aftermath of 9/11,” dedicated to the 422 first responders who perished at Ground Zero.
