On this week’s very special episode, we had the incredible joy of welcoming back to the show, one of our very favorite mentors on planet earth…. Mr. John Eldredge.

If you’re new to the podcast, make sure you check out our first episode with John (Ep. 30) where you’ll hear how John went from just barely surviving to living the life of adventure He longed for. John is a dynamic speaker, counselor, and Director of Ransomed Heart Ministries in Colorado who is known most for his best selling book, Wild at Heart, a remarkable work on recovering the masculine soul. (Men, if you have not read this, it is a MUST) He’s also written some of our other very favorite books of all time, Waking the Dead, Journey of Desire, & the Way of the Wild Heart, just to name a few.

What you'll experience after spending time with John today is the same thing you'll find when you pick up any of his books: it will make you want to grow closer to Jesus. John is the real deal, and always so good to remind us that loving Jesus really is what living a life of adventure is all about. We were so impacted by this incredible conversation with one of our greatest heroes, and we know you will be too! Enjoy!

On today’s episode we had the incredible honor of chatting with President of Proverbs 31 Ministries, International speaker, and New York Times best-selling author of over 20 books : Lysa Terkeurst.

Lysa might just be one of the bravest people we’ve encountered. With great authenticity and vulnerability, she shares how she learned to trust God and fiercely cling to hope while walking through not just one but several of her greatest nightmares including the unraveling of her marriage and a cancer diagnosis. We talk with Lysa about the power of community, how to love someone well who’s going through a devastating heartache, and how to find a fresh start when your life hasn’t turned out the way you planned. Whatever you may be walking through today, we hope this conversation will encourage and inspire you to keep going, keep fighting, and keep trusting God every single step of the way.

If you grew up anywhere near a church, chances are good you heard the widely popular worship song, “God Will Make a Way”, in fact you probably started humming the tune as soon as you heard the title. On today’s episode we had the incredible honor of chatting with the writer of this cherished tune, Don Moen.

A pioneer of the Praise and Worship movement, Don is an internationally acclaimed, multi award-winning music artist who spent his career as a worship leader, producer, songwriter, and music executive. While serving as the president of Integrity Music for 20 years, Don sold more than 5 million albums and signed worship leaders such as Hillsong United, Israel Houghton. & Darlene Zschech.

With striking humility and vulnerability, Don shares the tragic story that led him to write God Will Make a Way, how the value of authenticity has guided him along his journey, and the power of trusting that even in the face of the most hopeless circumstances, God will always make a way.

ALSO : We have an extra special treat for you guys today! We have some crazy talented friends who just happen to live down the street, so we asked our good friend and amazing Worship Leader, Austin Benjamin to join us for this episode, and in the spirit of authenticity, we asked him to do a simple, acoustic version of God Will Make a Way. So find a quiet place, soak it in, sing along, or just listen and receive the promise of this amazing song. God is working all around you, even when you cannot see. He will make a way for you.

On today’s episode we’re chatting with our new friend, Jonathan Merritt. Jonathan is an incredibly gifted faith and culture writer whose published more than 3,000 articles for outlets such as the New York Times, USA Today, Washington Post, and CNN.

We chat with Jonathan about his journey moving from the Bible Belt to New York City and how he found himself struggling to engage people in spiritual conversations who didn't speak the “christianese” he was used to in the South. If you've ever found yourself in an “in between” season, wrestling through difficult questions, or maybe walking closely with someone who is, this conversation is for you. We were so encouraged by the truth that Jonathan shares and cannot wait for you to hear it. Enjoy!
