About this listen

Built By Faith is a space for honest conversations about real life and the quiet ways God shapes us through it.

No performance. No pressure. Just real stories shared with open hands.

Because some of the most meaningful faith isn’t taught from a stage, it’s built over time through everyday life.

Hosted by Steve Vencl.

  • Luke Adams — Freedom Through Surrender
    Apr 28 2026

    He didn’t find freedom by trying harder.

    He found it when he finally let go.

    In this conversation, Luke Adams shares the moment everything changed — from carrying the pressure of performance in professional baseball to surrendering his life to God. What followed wasn’t perfection, but a new way of living rooted in trust, dependence, and freedom.

    Luke opens up about identity, injury, faith, and what it really looks like to live for an audience of one — not defined by results, but anchored in something deeper.

    He was a young athlete trying to prove himself while quietly carrying more than he could hold. That pressure eventually led to a moment alone in a clubhouse — where surrender became real, and everything began to shift.

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying something too heavy, this conversation will resonate.

  • Brianna Salvatore Dueck — Outliving Loss and Finding Identity
    Apr 21 2026

    Some moments in life don’t just pass—they shape you.

    In this conversation, Brianna Salvatore Dueck shares what it’s been like to walk through loss, identity, and the quiet tension of trying to follow God in seasons that don’t always make sense.

    After losing her mom at a young age, she found herself asking a question most of us try to avoid:

    What can I cling to… if everything can be taken?

    That question didn’t just sit with her—it reshaped how she lives, how she leads, and how she shows up for others.

    We talk about identity after athletics, the unseen work God is doing beneath the surface, and how to discern His voice in the middle of uncertainty.

    This isn’t about having everything figured out. It’s about learning to walk with God—honestly, slowly, and with open hands.

    Brianna’s story is shaped by loss, by the people who planted seeds in her life, and by a growing awareness that God was present even when she didn’t recognize it.

    And now, she’s building from that place.
