Do you ever wonder if your work in youth ministry is making a difference? In this episode of Youth Worker on Fire, Doug reminds youth pastors, volunteers, and parents that every late-night prayer and every tear shed is planting eternal seeds—even when you don't see the results right away. Drawing from Galatians 6:9 and 1 Corinthians 3:6–7, Doug shares stories from his Campus Life days with Youth for Christ, where students came to faith years later from seeds planted long before. Just like farmers wait patiently for the harvest, youth workers must trust that God brings the increase in His perfect timing. In this episode you'll discover: ✅ Why student ministry often bears fruit years later ✅ How to stay encouraged when you feel like quitting ✅ The eternal ripple effect of faithfully sowing into students' lives ✅ Why youth workers are both “planters” and “fishers of men” ✅ How God multiplies what feels small into something eternal

At the Women Ignite Success Summit 2025 in Kingston, Jamaica, I was so honored to share what God had been doing in my life during that season.

Make the death of Charlie Kirk the worst thing that could happen to those who hate the gospel. While we are alive, let's fully live.

This week, I'm sitting down to answer questions from The Village fam about faith and friendships! I'm answering everything from learning how to love people well when they're not walking with God, to discerning if it's really the Lord speaking, or just our emotions.This conversation is honest, vulnerable, and rooted in scripture. We also talk about what it means to steward godly friendships through prayer, and why following Jesus doesn't exempt us from suffering, but instead gives us hope in the middle of it.If you've ever struggled with navigating relationships, or holding on to faith through trials, this episode is for you. Share this with a friend who needs the reminder that God's love is steady, His Spirit still speaks, and His presence is with us, even in the hardest seasons.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this powerful exploration of divine purpose, we're reminded that God's plan for our lives is knowable and accessible. The key message is that by earnestly seeking God, we can uncover our unique mission. This echoes Jeremiah 29:13, where God promises, 'You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.' We're challenged to pay attention to the passions and burdens God places on our hearts, as these often point to our divine calling. The journey of discovering God's purpose is portrayed not as a one-time event, but as an evolving process of deepening understanding and revelation. This perspective encourages us to embrace the mystery of faith and view our failures as part of the learning journey. As we navigate our path, we're urged to shift from a performance-oriented mindset to one of resting in God's grace, trusting His guidance rather than relying solely on our own efforts. Key Points:God's purpose for our lives is knowable and can be discovered through seeking HimPersonal missions and callings evolve and deepen over timeThe importance of resting in God rather than trying to make everything happen on our ownRecognizing when God is shifting our focus or calling us to a new seasonLearning to hear God's voice through practice, obedience, and community

There is a reason why Jesus picked people who were working when He was choosing His disciples. Work is redemptive because you have to be responsible for yourself, it causes you to benefit someone else, gives you the ability to be generous, and teaches you to solve problems, overcome obstacles, and be submitted to authority. 

Ever said, “the church hurt me”? In this powerful conversation, Melody and Parker Webb unpack what “church hurt” really means and why it often comes down to a few people, not the entire body of Christ. With honesty, humor, and vulnerability, they share stories of wounds, grace, and the hard but healing work of humility — reminding us not to let what people did to us keep us from what Jesus did for us.

In this week's episode, I felt led to share from my heart about one of the greatest callings and challenges God has given me, parenting.With my kids starting a brand-new school year, I found myself wrestling with questions we all ask as parents: Have I done enough? Am I discipling them well? Am I pointing them to Jesus in the way I should? In the middle of that anxiety, God reminded me that He loves my children even more than I do, and that discipleship isn't about perfection, it's about living in totality with Him, every single day.Deuteronomy 6 gives us clear instructions on how we should parent as believers and in this episode I talk about what it means to train up our kids in the Lord, not just on Sundays, but through the way we live, the conversations we have, and the love they see modeled in our homes.If you've ever felt the weight of raising children, wondered if you're getting it “right,” or longed for practical ways to weave faith into the rhythms of your family life, this one's for you.Share this episode with another parent who needs the reminder that they're not walking this journey alone, God is faithful, and He's entrusted us with His children for a purpose.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We may be living in THE most important time in all ofhistory.  Especially if you are a pastor,or Christian leader working with youth. Why? Because in 2022 the entire worldwas connected by 5G high speed internet at the same time as new technologieswere introduced including AI, geo location software, global money transfer andmass audience live streaming.  This isthe first generation of young people in all of history that can reach theentire world AND at the same time the entire world can also reach them.Nearly 5.5 billion people are online. Some are good, some arecriminals.  Some are criminals that seeaccessing and seducing American teens will generate millions for their poorcountry. Our young people must understand the world they now live in. What anincredible call to leadership for the faith-based community.   It is indeed a calling. It is a time to have discussionsabout truth and how to recognize it. AI will make everything seem real. It is agreat opportunity to teach our youth to define (write down) their values. It isimportant to talk about digital morality. Some teens believe that what they do online doesn't count because it isnot real. What about shooting a cop in a video game, is that ok?  This is a great opportunity to talk about grace andforgiveness and helping others who are victims of cyber bullying.  Christian young people need to know aboutfinancial sextortion of teenagers, how it works, what it looks like and how toprotect themselves.  And teens need toknow the many positive ways technology can be used to help others.  For example, talk about what it might looklike to be a “cyber missionary” or creating a prayer circle with friends. This is a great call to Christian Leadership to prepare themost important generation of kids that have ever lived, to use their knowledgeand expertise to educate and protect the next generation of siblings, cousins,friends that live in a globally connected world.

Today we continued a series from the archives–If we don't process the “stuff” from people and keep our hearts soft, then we aren't really operating out of the flow of the Holy Spirit. Scripture directs us in how to keep our heart pure with other people. Bear with one another. Forgive each other, just as the Lord forgave us. Put on love, the perfect bond of unity.

Life has a way of loading us down with stress, disappointment, and unforgiveness. Each moment feels like another rock tossed into the rucksack we carry. Before long, the weight slows us down and keeps us from running the race God set before us. In this episode of Walking in Command, Pastor Anthony unpacks 1 John 4:20–5:3, Hebrews 12:1, and Matthew 5 to show us how to: Lay down bitterness and anger Walk in obedience and discipline to Christ Forgive those who've wounded us Trade the heavy rucksack of life for the light burden of Jesus The true test of sonship isn't in what we say but in how we treat those who've hurt us. Get the rocks out of your rucksack—and discover the freedom of walking in command.

Hey Fam! This week's episode is one I've been sitting with for a while, because it's straight from something God has been working on in my own heart, learning to bring everything to His feet.If you've ever found yourself running around doing all the things for God but feeling distant from Him, you're not alone. I've been there, serving, pouring out, checking every box, and still missing that closeness my soul was craving.In this episode, we're looking at Mary and Martha's story in Luke 10, and what it really means to choose intimacy before activity. Whether you're in a busy season, or just longing for more of His presence, my prayer is that this conversation gives you permission to slow down, and draw near.This one is full of gentle conviction, and the reminder that you're always welcome at His feet. Share this with a friend who's been feeling tired, or distant from the Lord, they might need this just as much as you do.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Have you ever felt called to something big — but felt unqualified, unprepared, or even scared? In this episode of Chosen By Jesus with Kelley Tyan and Taylor Tyan, we dive deep into why God doesn't call the qualified — He qualifies the called. We share our own stories of starting scared — from teaching without experience, to launching a business with no formal training, to writing a book and stepping into ministry. If you've been waiting for perfect conditions, this is your sign to take the first step in faith. Through real-life examples and biblical encouragement, we'll show you how to trade the pain of regret for the blessing of obedience. You'll learn:   Why waiting until you “feel ready” keeps you stuck How God uses your weakness to display His power Practical ways to push past fear and take the next step What the Bible says about trusting God in uncertainty   Key Scriptures: Ecclesiastes 11:4 – Stop waiting for perfect conditions 2 Corinthians 12:9 – God's power in your weakness Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust Him with the next step Hebrews 11:8 – Faith to go without knowing the whole plan   If you've ever said, “I'll start when I feel ready” — this episode will give you the faith-fueled push to start now. ⸻ Want to go deeper?

Today we pulled an episode from the archives–Forgiveness is not intellectual. It is an opening of our spirit, allowing the Holy Spirit to wash through us and out to others the same forgiveness that we so desperately depend on. One of the greatest things that has to happen in leaders is the ability to maintain a clean heart by really forgiving people and releasing them from their offenses. 

So many of us have been handed a one-size-fits-all blueprint for connecting with God—quiet times at dawn, journaling in solitude, structured study. But what happens when that doesn't work for you? Does that mean something's wrong with you? Or with your faith?In this episode, Chris, Jacob, and Jesse dive into the reality that not everyone connects with God in the same way—and that's not just okay, it's beautiful. Drawing from a framework of six spiritual pathways—contemplative, student, activist, experiential, aesthetic, and relational—they unpack how discipleship can become more about discovery than conformity. If you've ever felt like a spiritual misfit, this conversation might be the permission slip you didn't know you needed. It's honest, practical, and full of grace for the diverse ways we hear from and walk with God.ORDER Jessie's newest book, Ordinary Discipleship: How God Wires Us for the Adventure of Transformation → https://a.co/d/51j86DGFor more great stuff, check out: Ordinary Discipleship by Whoology: https://whoology.coFollow us on social media:https://instagram.com/ordinarydiscipleshiphttps://facebook.com/ordinarydiscipleshipFollow Jessie on social media:Instagram: https://instagram.com/yourbrainbyjessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.s.cruickshank/Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourbrainbyjessJessie Cruickshank is a disciple-maker, wilderness guide, and ordained minister.

Hey Guys! This week's episode is extra close to my heart because I'm joined by someone I know y'all are going to love hearing from — Jordan is on the couch with me! What started as just working together has turned into something so much deeper — she's truly become family. Our story is one of grief, friendship, discipleship, and the kind of connection that only comes when God brings two people together for His purpose.Whether you're a young Christian trying to walk with Jesus, someone who cares for a loved one with special needs, or if you've been searching for real, Christ-centered community — this episode is for YOU. We talk about how our friendship reflects Ruth & Naomi's story, following Jesus in your 20s — when it's hard, awkward, or unpopular, caring for someone with special needs while still trusting God's plan, and how God can use us in our own families and networks to spread the gospel and make disciples.This one is full of God's faithfulness, and the kind of joy that only comes through the journey. I'm so grateful for Jordan and I can't wait for y'all to hear her heart!

“Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.” - Luke 9:23In this episode, I'm diving into something the Lord has been pressing on my heart: Jesus didn't call us to comfort, he called us to carry a cross.I share a story that started off as a fun little birthday bike ride… and turned into a full-blown sermon from the Holy Spirit. What I thought would be an easy, scenic trip ended up showing me so much about the reality of the Christian walk, it's not easy, and it's not supposed to be.If you've ever felt tired, or caught off guard by how hard following Jesus can be, I want you to know, you're not alone!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week I sat down with Norris Johnson III and we talked about what it really looks like to serve God when you're spiritually empty, and how the Acts 2:42 conference became a turning point for him, a moment where the Lord met him in the middle of burnout and reignited the fire he thought he'd lost.As we unpacked his journey, we dug deep into what it means to die to self and to truly walk in sonship instead of striving to be used by God. We also explored the weighty call to be a “living sacrifice” like Romans 12 teaches, the danger of blending culture with Christianity, and how sometimes God will protect us from the very blessings we're not ready to carry. This episode doesn't just inspire, it challenges and calls us back to the altar.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
