What Does Following Jesus Look Like Now? - S5E1

Finding Holiness in Ordinary Work - S5E2

In this episode, I reflect on how starting my auto detailing business has unexpectedly helped me understand the meaning of holy. Through the parable of the light that isn’t hidden under a basket, I explore how God’s holiness isn’t heavy or forced—but cleansing, peaceful, and meant to shine through us naturally. I also share a simple mental exercise that’s been helping me enter that holy space and be refilled with God’s light.

What Does Following Jesus Look Like Now? - S5E1

After a month away due to sickness and the holidays, I reflect on anxiety, faith, and starting a business on a limited budget. I share how Scripture, community, and marriage counseling have helped bring me back to peace, and wrestle with what it really looks like to follow Jesus today—not in distant places, but in the everyday moments right in front of us.

When Life Stretches You — Marriage, Stress, and Hope

In this episode, I share honestly about how life has been stretching me while launching a new business—emotionally, practically, and relationally. I talk about navigating change as a couple, the stress it’s brought into our home, and how marriage counseling hasn’t removed conflict but has given us tools to move through it with more understanding and repair. I also reflect on a recent discovery about the Hebrew meaning of hope and waiting—how it’s connected to the idea of stretching—and how that perspective is helping me see this season not as something that’s breaking me, but something that’s shaping and preparing me for what’s ahead.

Did Jesus Have to Die? — Rethinking Sacrifice & God’s Heart

In this episode, I share how life has been nonstop while launching 818 Auto Detail Co—but also how God has been meeting me right in the middle of the chaos. I dive into a recent study that challenged everything I thought I knew about sacrifice. Did God ever want sacrifices? Did Jesus “have to” die? Or was God stepping into humanity’s world, meeting us in our broken systems, and showing us—through Jesus—the true weight of injustice and the depth of His love? I unpack how the sacrificial system was God working with human culture, not endorsing it… and why Jesus’ death reveals more about us than about what God requires. My hope is simple: to invite curiosity, honesty, and the freedom to ask the hard questions that lead to deeper faith

The Bible Is NOT a Behavior Manual - It's A Story That Leads to Jesus

In this episode, I talk about how I’ve come to see that the Bible isn’t a behavior manual—it’s a story that leads to Jesus. I share how a scene from Stranger Things made me think about how often Scripture gets weaponized and ripped out of context, and how my current reading plan has been tracing the thread from Genesis to Malachi to Revelation, all pointing to the Messiah. From the promise of a snake-crushing seed in Genesis to the revelation of Jesus’ kingdom, I unpack why the whole story is about Him—not just rules for us to follow.
