What does it look like to go “full send” in your faith — fully following Jesus and fully living as someone sent by Him? In this episode of The Weekly, Jay Ewing sits down with Jennie Fletemeyer to recap an incredible Middle School Winter Weekend, unpack the meaning behind the theme Full Send, and reflect on how God uses wilderness seasons to speak clearly, grow our faith, and prepare us for what's next. From discipleship pathways and parent-centered ministry, to a popcorn illustration that literally caught fire — this conversation is full of encouragement, vision, and practical insight for families, students, and anyone longing to follow Jesus with courage.

In this episode of The Weekly, Jay Ewing is joined by Mark Wicks for a thoughtful conversation through John 11, the story of Lazarus. Why did Jesus wait when the one He loved was sick? What does it mean when God doesn't move according to our expectations? And how does the resurrection of Lazarus shape our hope today? This episode explores the tension of delay, grief, and misunderstanding—and the powerful truth that God reveals His glory even through death. As the story unfolds, we're reminded that Jesus is not only compassionate and present in suffering, but that He is also the One who brings dead things back to life. If Jesus can raise Lazarus, and if He can raise Himself, then resurrection hope is not just for the future—it changes how we live and trust God now.

In this episode of The Weekly, host Jay Ewing sits down with Perry Marshall to explore John 10 and the themes of belief and assurance.

Together, they discuss what it means for Jesus to say, “I and the Father are one,” why people often admire Jesus' works while resisting His claims, and how believers can find deep assurance in being held securely in the hands of the Son and the Father. This conversation invites listeners—whether confident in their faith or still searching—to listen for the Shepherd's voice and consider what it truly means to believe.
