Do It Afraid: A Conversation with Kent Chevalier

Fear is something we all face...especially when we’re stepping into something new. In this episode of The Wherever You Go Podcast, I’m joined by Kent Chevelier, chaplain for the Pittsburgh Steelers and author of the upcoming book Do It Afraid. While Kent has spent years walking alongside athletes in high-pressure environments, this conversation centers on his own journey, moving from comfort into the unknown and choosing obedience even when fear was present. We talk about obedience, calling, and what it really looks like to trust God when the next step feels uncertain. If you’re standing at the edge of something new or maybe something that's not new, but that has been pressing on your heart for years, this episode will remind you that you don’t have to be fearless to move forward, you just have to be willing.

Still Standing: A Word For Tired Business Owners

Owning a business is hard, even (and sometimes especially) when it’s part of God’s calling. In this episode, Sam encourages business owners not to trust their feelings when doubt creeps in. Just because you feel like you’re failing doesn’t mean you are. We talk about why our emotions can mislead us, how Scripture anchors us in truth, and what it looks like to lean on God when the weight of leadership feels heavy. If you’ve been questioning your capability, your calling, or whether you should keep going, this conversation is for you. In This Episode: •Why feelings are real but unreliable •What Scripture says about our hearts and emotions •Why hardship doesn’t mean you missed God •How mistakes shape growth and perseverance •What it looks like to rely on God instead of yourself Scriptures referenced: Jeremiah 17:9, John 16:33, James 1:2–4, 2 Corinthians 12:9, Galatians 6:9 (NIV)

🎙️ Your Circle Shapes You: Why Who You Spend Time With Matters

We’ve all heard the quote that you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with and it’s true. The people closest to us shape our habits, our mindset, our values, and our character. In this episode, Sam shares why Christians not only need to surround themselves with wise and successful people, but especially with successful Christians whose lives reflect integrity, humility, and obedience to God. She also reminds listeners that the most important relationship of all is the one we have with the Lord. If we want to become more like Christ, we must intentionally spend time with Him in Scripture, prayer, worship, and stillness. Key Scriptures: Proverbs 13:20 1 Corinthians 15:33 John 15:4–5 🎧 Listen now and consider: Who are the five voices shaping your life…and is God one of them?

Not Faith in Business, but Business in Faith

Many people ask how to “incorporate faith into business,” but in this episode, Sam shares a foundational truth: we don’t add faith to our work, we bring our work into our faith. We are not business owners who love God. We are children of God who happen to own businesses. Sam encourages listeners to see their identity as sons and daughters first, remembering that the Holy Spirit doesn’t clock out when we clock in. Our work becomes a place to reflect God’s love, character, and integrity, not a place to use Christianity as a marketing strategy. Instead of trying to put God into our business, we’re called to simply live as who we already are , people filled with the Spirit of God, wherever we go. Key Scriptures: •1 John 3:1 •Galatians 2:20 •Colossians 3:23–24 •John 13:35 •1 Corinthians 3:6–7 🎧 Listen now and be encouraged to live as a child of God first, in business, leadership, and all of life.
