Stop Counting Seats. Start Changing Cities.

Stop Counting Seats. Start Changing Cities.

Pastor Chris leads Home Church in Northern California, with a second location in Tracy — about an hour east of San Francisco. In this conversation recorded at the Arise Shine Conference, he shares what holistic transformation actually looks like in a California mission field, the story of a man who got baptized after 40-something years outside the church and is now on their second location launch team, and why he believes the most significant shift happening in the church right now is leaders moving away from celebrity culture and crowd metrics toward the slow, costly, irreplaceable work of discipleship. Build people, not buildings. Kill the consumerism. Stop for the one. Recorded live at the Arise Shine Conference.

68 Churches in Their Town. They Planted One More. Here's Why.

Pastor Jerimy planted Christ Chapel in Spring Hill, Tennessee — a town just south of Nashville that already had 68 churches for 45,000 people. In this conversation recorded at the Arise Shine Conference, he makes a compelling case for what revival actually looks like when it's sustainable: not five nights in a tent with a guest speaker, but a slow, steady, week-after-week move of God that you might already be in the middle of. He also talks about pastoring in a city oversaturated with cultural Christianity, building a congregation from every denominational background, and what led to over 150 Easter decisions — including more than 50 first-time commitments — at a church that leads with high challenge, not comfort.

Miracle Pregnancy. Impossible Loss. A God Who Stayed. | Zach & Ashley's Story | Radiant Podcast

After years of infertility, Zach and Ashley got their miracle — and then some. On New Year's morning 2022, a positive test. At six weeks: identical twins, rare and unexpected, what felt like the double portion they'd been praying for. At 21 weeks, everything changed. Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome. Stage three. The doctor sent them home with nothing: "I don't anticipate your girls will live through the week." Delivered at 24 weeks, one pound each, Reese lived 37 days. Celia spent 190 days in the NICU. Through the grief of losing one daughter and fighting for another, Zach and Ashley discovered what it means to surrender the why and trust the who. On their tenth wedding anniversary, God gave them a third child — and the story they never could have written for themselves.

40 Years Running. His Dad's Death Finally Brought Him Home. | Kyle Jennings' Story | Radiant Podcast

Kyle came home to Michigan after 18 years chasing country music in Nashville — and walked straight into the last chapter of his dad's life. From hockey dreams ended by concussions to decades of partying, failed relationships, and chasing something he couldn't name, Kyle felt God drawing him long before he understood what it was. His dad's cancer diagnosis in 2020 and death that December didn't destroy his faith — they completed a long, slow work God had already started. On June 9th, 2021, at 43 years old, Kyle was baptized in the lake where he grew up, finally home in every sense of the word. His story is a textbook example of God's patience — and what happens when a man finally stops running.
