If you’re honest, you might feel a little guilty admitting this, but you’re not alone. Many Gen Zers want to love the Bible, believe it matters, and yet struggle to actually enjoy reading it.

Why does something that’s supposed to bring life sometimes feel boring, confusing, or like a chore?

In this episode, we talk honestly about the tension between knowing the Bible is important and wanting to open it. We explore what Scripture actually says about God’s Word—not as a rulebook, but as the primary way God speaks, shapes us, and invites us into His presence.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, discouraged, or frustrated with Bible reading, this episode is for you. Let’s move past guilt and toward a deeper, more life-giving relationship with God through His Word.

For many of us, Christmas is filled with joy, memories, and traditions, but also stress, loneliness, and the pressure to look happy on social media

In this episode, we talk honestly about why Christmas can feel both life-giving and draining and wrestle with the questions Gen Z is really asking:

• How do you represent Christ in family dynamics that are complicated or even painful?
• What do you do when the holiday blues hit hard?
• How do you make this holiday less about the business of Christmas and more about the person of Christmas?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, discouraged, or conflicted during the holidays, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we take an honest look at a statement many Gen Zers quietly wrestle with: “I don’t feel like a Christian.”

What happens when your faith makes sense in theory, but feels distant or disconnected in your heart? Do fluctuating emotions or doubts mean something is wrong with your salvation?

Let’s explore what Scripture actually says about salvation and assurance, including the important distinction between eternal security (what God does and promises) and assurance of salvation (what we experience and feel).

If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I really saved?” or if you’ve ever felt spiritually disconnected or unsure where you stand with God, this episode will help you ground your faith not in feelings, but in truth.

In this episode of the Gen Z Series, we tackle a big question many young adults are quietly asking: What does it actually mean to be a Christian?

We’re living in a moment where Christianity is trending again. It’s “cool” to follow Jesus, to wear the merch, get Bible verse tattoos, and post faith-themed content. But trends don’t sustain a soul. And they won’t carry you through heartbreak, confusion, cultural pressure, or the deep questions of calling and identity.

Honest, biblically grounded, and super practical, this episode is designed to help Gen Z move beyond a surface-level faith and into a life of true devotion, surrender, and purpose.

Whether you’re a young adult trying to figure out what you really believe or someone who loves and mentors Gen Z, this conversation will help you see what it means to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.

I’m excited to introduce a new podcast series created specifically for Gen Z-ers and the people who love them.

Each episode features a real, honest conversation between me and my Gen Z co-host (who you will meet in today’s episode) as we unpack what it actually looks like to follow Jesus in today’s world… in college classrooms, workplaces, friendships, dating, online spaces, and everywhere in between. We explore faith not as a checklist, but as a way of life that shapes every decision, season, and struggle.

Together, we tackle the challenging questions young adults are asking:

• How can you handle relationships, money, and big decisions in a way that honors God?
• What does it really mean to hear God’s voice or experience God’s presence?
• How can you live out your faith without caving to the pressures around you?
• What does it really take to build a faith that lasts?

This podcast is for any young adult learning how to build a life with Jesus at the center, and for every parent, pastor, mentor, or friend who wants to better understand and support the next generation.

Authentic, practical, biblical, and sometimes a little raw, this is where real life meets real faith. Join the conversation. Let’s grow together.

Everyone wants to be happy. Don’t you? Yet happiness seems one of the most elusive feelings in the world for most people.

One of the most shocking and powerful aspects of the apostle Paul was his ability to live happy. This guy didn’t fake it. He didn’t hide it. He didn’t struggle with it. He simply found the secret to happiness and couldn’t wait to share it with us. While the whole letter of Philippians is aimed at joy, this last lesson focuses in on happiness and how to achieve it. This is gold and it’s ours for the taking in Christ Jesus!

Discussion Questions:

1. How did Paul always rejoice?

1. Can you remember the definition given for contentment? How would you define contentment?

1. Do you remember the five (or some) obstacles to contentment? What hinders you from contentment?

1. What are some things you practice to grow in contentment?

1. Social media is one of the obstacles to joy in modern life. How’s your relationships with social media and in what ways do you need to make changes to it?

1. Consider these thoughts and write down what comes to mind. Jesus + nothing = everything. Contentment is the bold affirmation that my Father knows best. We’re all going to go through various seasons in our life. The key to joy is to learn what Paul learned, which is to be content.

Most Christians spend way too much time worrying. You were meant for more than a life of worry. Find out how to get victory over worry in this lesson.

Discussion Questions:

1. What is the most difficult sin in your life to overcome?
2. What are you worried about lately? Why? What does God’s word say about that particular matter?
3. What are some reasons why you should not worry?
4. What qualities does Paul urge us to set our minds on?
5. How could you strengthen your prayer life?
6. Consider these thoughts and write down what comes to mind. It is a sin to worry, and it is a command not to be anxious. The way to overcome worry is not by effort of will, but by total and complete dependence on the Lord.
