We Drafted The Ultimate 90's Worship Setlist | WALKING ROOTED EP. 14

Remember overhead transparencies, youth group worship bands, rollerblades, and trying to learn guitar solos from VHS-era worship songs? In this episode of Walking Rooted, Wayne, Jesse, and special guest Nicholas take a trip back to the golden era of 90’s worship music with a full-on draft to build the ultimate worship setlist. Along the way, they swap hilarious church band stories, talk about learning music in youth group, relive chaotic worship team moments, and debate classics from Delirious?, Vineyard, Sonicflood, Matt Redman, Darrell Evans, and more. If you grew up in church during the 90’s or early 2000’s, this episode is loaded with nostalgia, laughs, and songs you probably still remember by heart.

Alaska, Snowstorms, and Drinking the Wrong Coffee | WALKING ROOTED 013

What do Alaska, a snowstorm, and drinking the wrong coffee have in common? Honestly… we’re still figuring that out. In this episode of the Walking Rooted Podcast, Wayne and Jesse share stories from a wild stretch of travel that includes sleeping in a Subaru, navigating unexpected weather, and making a few questionable decisions along the way. Somewhere between the laughs and the chaos, a bigger conversation unfolds about faith, mindset, and learning to trust that God provides—even when life feels unpredictable. It’s real, it’s funny, and it might hit closer to home than you expect.

Car Camping, Cemeteries, and Questionable Decisions

Car camping across the country, late-night conversations, and one seriously questionable camping idea—this episode has it all. We’re sharing stories from recent adventures, including testing out sleeping in a car, planning a cross-country trip, and debating whether camping in a cemetery is genius… or just plain weird. We also reflect on how God works in both the big and small moments of life. Whether it’s through unexpected encounters or personal experiences that don’t quite make sense at first, we’re learning to pay attention to what He might be doing right in front of us.

Eating Wrappers, Toughing Lions, and Live Stream Fails

Ever eaten something and immediately wondered if you made a mistake? Yeah… that’s how this episode starts. From trying Japanese candy (including an edible wrapper) to swapping stories about lion encounters, livestream fails, and travel chaos—this one goes off the rails in the best way. But like always, somewhere in the middle of the laughter, we find something deeper. We talk about how God uses broken things, how life’s unexpected moments shape us, and what it looks like to trust Him even when things don’t make sense. This episode is a mix of fun, faith, and a little bit of “why did we do that?” In this episode: * Trying weird Japanese snacks (and eating the wrapper ) * A wild lion encounter you have to hear to believe * Livestream tech fails and behind-the-scenes chaos * Travel stories, jet lag, and unexpected moments * The beauty of brokenness and how God uses it * Hot dogs, retreats, and random life debates

Jet Lag, Gelato, and a Broken Guitar

Jet lag at 3AM. Gelato for breakfast. A drum kit in an airport. This episode has it all. We’re taking you behind the scenes of our trip to Croatia—sharing the funny, the unexpected, and the meaningful moments from serving at an international conference and exploring a new part of the world. From late-night Law & Order sessions to swimming in the Adriatic Sea, this trip gave us plenty of stories—but also a powerful reminder about encouragement and trusting God in real life. Whether you’re here for the laughs or something deeper, we’re glad you’re walking with us.
