Unscripted with PJ & PT

Episode 21

The world is loud right now… politics, news cycles, social media, the constant pull of "did you see what happened?" In this episode, Pastor John and Pastor Tracy sit down to ask a different question: how do we talk about all of it without losing our peace, our witness, or our kids' innocence in the process? With a memorable Russell Brand encounter, a parking-lot peacemaker story you have to hear to believe, and three simple filters worth running every word through, this one is a deep breath in a world that won't stop shouting. Press play, slow down, and let it settle you.

Episode 20

Pastor John & Pastor Tracy sit down to swap some of the funniest stories they've never told on the podcast, & somewhere between the bareback horses, the borrowed church van, and the chicken that wouldn't cook, a deeper question shows up: what do our kids miss when every summer is scheduled, screened, and supervised? You don't have to live in the past to give your family something better. Press play, grab someone you love, and let this one encourage you before summer sneaks up.

Episode 19

What if surviving Easter morning is part of the miracle? Pastors John & Tracy Breland get real about the chaos of getting everyone to church on Easter Sunday — the wrong shoes, the missing underwear, the daylight savings disaster that almost made them miss the whole service. But behind the laughs is a powerful reminder: your kids won't remember what they wore, they'll remember how it felt. Consistency beats perfection. Don't let the enemy steal your joy over wrinkled outfits and late arrivals. Just get there. Make the memories. Point them to Jesus.

Episode 18

What would you tell your 25-year-old self? Pastors John & Tracy Breland get real about the lessons they wish they'd learned sooner.

If you're in a hard season, this one's for you.
