Public speaking has a way of exposing our deepest fears. Sweaty palms. Racing thoughts. The feeling that everyone is judging every word. For so many of us, it’s paralyzing.

But what if the microphone isn’t a threat… it’s an opportunity?

In this episode, we unpack why public speaking terrifies so many people — and why avoiding it might mean shrinking back from influence you were meant to have. We talk about the truth that leadership isn’t reserved for a stage or a title. If you have relationships, you have influence. If you have influence, you’re leading.

Whether you’re leading a team meeting, teaching a class, sharing your faith, or just trying to find your voice in hard conversations — this episode will help you move from fear to purpose.

Because everyone is a leader.
And your voice matters.

What happens when your marriage starts to feel like a competition?

In this episode, we talk about how subtle scorekeeping, one-upping, and the need to “win” arguments quietly erode intimacy. Because when one spouse wins, the relationship loses. We unpack how competition shifts us from being teammates to being opponents—and why that dynamic is so destructive over time.

Rooted in Paul’s encouragement in Ephesians 5:21 to “submit to one another out of reverence for Christ,” we explore a different way forward: honor. What does it look like to outdo one another in showing honor? How does mutual submission actually create strength instead of weakness? And why is choosing humility not about losing—but about building something better?

If you’ve ever walked away from an argument feeling victorious but strangely disconnected, this conversation is for you.

Because marriage was never meant to be a scoreboard. It was meant to be a partnership.

What if worship isn’t about the songs we choose, but about the people we are becoming?

Worship is more than the songs we sing on Sunday—it’s shaping who we’re becoming.
In this episode, we zoom out from setlists, styles, and preferences to ask a deeper question: What is worship actually forming in us?

We talk about how corporate worship shapes our theology, our expectations of God, and even the way we process suffering, joy, and everyday obedience. Are we approaching worship as consumers of an experience, or as disciples being formed through surrender? How do lyrics, rhythms, and repetition quietly teach us what to believe—and how to live?

This conversation challenges us to rethink worship as a formative practice that extends far beyond a Sunday gathering, inviting us into a life poured out to God in humility, trust, and daily devotion.

If you’ve ever wondered why worship matters so much—or felt like something deeper is at stake when we sing—this episode is for you.
