Welcome to The Change, cultivating the difference Jesus makes. In this mountain‑retreat episode Brother Ryan sits down with worship pastor Jason Ligon, youth leader AJ, and Brother Brandon to explore the role of music in a believer’s spiritual walk.

Topics include personal walk‑up songs, Scripture on singing (Psalms, Colossians, Revelation), how music shapes belief and emotion, the importance of sound doctrine in lyrics, music’s power in hardship (dementia, grief), and practical ministry tips for youth and congregational worship.

Key takeaways: worship must be Christ‑centered, heartfelt, and doctrinally faithful; music prepares hearts for Scripture; try practical steps like a 30‑day Christian music challenge; and let songs drive you deeper into God’s Word. Episode closes with Colossians 3:16 and a prayer.

On this episode of The Change, host Bro. Ryan and the team return from the holiday break to tackle the big question: How do you find God’s will? Through candid conversation and scripture, they unpack what it really means to seek God—moving beyond fear and step-by-step checklists to a relationship shaped by obedience, prayer, and the Holy Spirit.

Topics include practical guidance from Proverbs 3:5–6, Ephesians 2:10, James 4:8 and 1 Kings 19; common myths (is God hiding His will, do you need a dramatic sign, or does God only speak to certain people?); the role of Scripture, prayer and the Spirit in discernment; and how small acts of faith and using your gifts cultivate clarity. The hosts share personal stories, ministerial insights, and pastoral encouragement about timing, testing, and staying faithful in the small things.

Listeners will leave encouraged to trust God’s presence over perfection, to use scripture and prayer as their roadmap, to obey in the little things, and to take faithful steps without paralyzing anxiety over making the “wrong” choice.

In this mini episode of The Change, Brother Ryan leads a short devotional through Philippians 1:12–26, reading the passage and reflecting on Paul’s witness from house arrest. Listeners will hear the Scripture, a brief exposition, and a prayer.

Topics covered include how Paul’s chains furthered the gospel, the reaction of the palace guard and fellow believers, the tension between life and death in Paul’s famous line “for me to live is Christ, to die is gain,” and the call to view obstacles as opportunities to magnify Jesus.

Key takeaways: practical encouragement to let trials become gospel opportunities, to live in a way that magnifies Christ, and to trust God’s purpose in hardship.
