  • Pursuing Trust in God’s Work (Philippians 1:1–11)

    Pursuing Trust in God’s Work (Philippians 1:1–11)
    Jan 26 2026

    In this episode, we begin a journey through the book of Philippians. Starting with Philippians 1:1–11, we explore Paul’s gratitude for the Philippian believers, the beauty of shared partnership in the gospel mission, and his prayer that their love would grow in knowledge and discernment as they live in anticipation of Christ’s return. The pursuit is learning to trust that God will complete the work He has begun.

  • The Pursuit Continues: What to Expect from The Upstream Pursuit in 2026

    The Pursuit Continues: What to Expect from The Upstream Pursuit in 2026
    Jan 19 2026

    In this episode, we reflect on the heart of this podcast: a short, Scripture-centered discipleship space designed to ground you, challenge you, and realign your walk with Christ each week. With biblical clarity, personal reflection, and a renewed call to abide rather than perform, this episode invites you to stop chasing noise and start pursuing what—and Who—truly matters. This year will not be about perfect routines but about returning again and again to the feet of Jesus.

  • When Seasons Shift: Friendship, Fostering, and New Pursuits (with Erica)

    When Seasons Shift: Friendship, Fostering, and New Pursuits (with Erica)
    Jan 12 2026

    Five years ago, The Upstream Pursuit began with a conversation between two friends saying yes to God. In this special anniversary conversation, I’m joined by my best friend Erica Reese as we reflect on what God has been doing in her life since she stepped down from the show last year. This episode is about faithfulness, friendship, and trusting God when seasons shift but the calling to follow Christ remains.
