What if your identity isn’t something you have to earn?

In Part 2 of Chameleon, we slow down and talk about the quiet fear a lot of us carry: that we’re overlooked, unwanted, or only valuable when we perform. Using 1 Peter 2:9–12, we unpack what it means when the Bible says you’re “chosen” and “God’s own possession”—and why that identity comes before purpose, before “trying harder,” and before you have everything figured out.

We’ll also look at a story of radical change in Acts 9 and sit with the question:
What would shift in your life if you actually believed you were wanted?

CHAMELEON — Part 1: Do Not Conform

Who are you when no one’s watching?

In the first episode of Chameleon, we talk about the quiet pressure to blend in—socially, emotionally, and even spiritually—and how it slowly shapes who we become.

Using Romans 12:2 and two stories from the life of Jesus, this episode explores the difference between conforming to the patterns around us and being transformed from the inside out. We slow down, unpack the context of these stories, and ask an honest question that still matters today:

Do you actually want to be well?

This isn’t about behavior modification or pretending to have it all together. It’s an invitation to notice the patterns you’ve normalized, the identity you’ve adopted, and the possibility of something deeper.

Pull up a chair. Let the question linger.
We’ll see you at the table.

In this episode of The Table, I sit down with my wife’s grandad, Bryan Beyer, for a conversation across generations.

We talk about faith over a lifetime — how calling unfolds slowly, how marriage and family shape you, how scholarship and devotion intersect, and why, after all these years, Jesus is still worth following.

This isn’t a lecture or a debate.
It’s a story.
A reflection on faith that has been tested, refined, and lived out over decades.

Wherever you’re coming from — curious, skeptical, rooted, or still figuring things out — there’s a seat for you at the table.

In this episode of The Table, Josh shares the story of where his calling truly began — not in a classroom or a church, but at a Christian camp where he saw a student’s eyes light up for Christ for the very first time. That moment planted a burden in him that he couldn’t shake, even as he stepped into college unsure of what ministry path he should take.

Josh talks honestly about switching majors, trying to convince himself that God wanted whatever he wanted, and the humbling season that finally made him slow down and listen. He reflects on the burden God gave him for students who feel unseen or drift away from their faith, and how that burden shaped his direction more than any major ever could.

Rooted in his life verse, Philippians 1:6, this episode explores how calling often begins quietly — in joy, in burden, and in subtle moments God uses to get our attention. Pull up a chair as Josh tells the story of how God first stirred his heart for youth ministry and what he learned in the messy process of figuring it all out.

In this first episode of The Table, Josh shares the moment fatherhood stopped feeling like an idea and became real. From early ultrasounds to the anatomy scan that changed everything, this episode explores how becoming a dad is reshaping the way he sees God as Father.

What happens when your own story collides with Scripture?
How does holding a future son shift your understanding of the One who holds you?

Join Josh as he reflects on joy, fear, responsibility, Abraham and Isaac, and the deeper love of the Father revealed through the journey toward parenthood.
This is an episode about seeing differently — and being changed by what you see.
