How To Hear God's Voice With Chris Hantla | Episode 219
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Most of us are running our lives on an identity we never actually chose — one built to earn approval instead of received from God. Chris Hantla, coach and co-director of Identity Exchange's Catalyst Experience, sat down with Daron to tell the story of how a mission trip to a Baghdad war zone stripped away his false identity as a "successful missionary" and led him into a real, conversational relationship with God. Chris walks through the exact moment God spoke a new name over him, the wife's question that exposed his hidden pride, and the friendship that finally taught him how to love his...

How To Hear From God Through Listening Prayer
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Ty Earlewine spent his summer internship going through Identity Exchange, a program built around growing in knowledge of self and knowledge of God at the same time. In this clip, he and his dad Daron unpack a John Calvin quote that reframes what real spiritual growth looks like, and Ty shares how one simple shift, learning to just sit and listen in prayer instead of trying to say the right thing, became the biggest breakthrough of his summer. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️Growth happens when knowledge of God and knowledge of self grow together. Too much of one without the other leads to judgment or...

Kelly Camp on Hitting Rock Bottom Before Surrendering to Christ
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
For five years, Kelly Camp went to church every single Sunday and refused to give his life to Christ. He sat in the back row, timed his arrival to avoid the greeters, and watched soccer on his phone during the sermon. Then one hungover Sunday morning in June 2015, a single sentence from his pastor broke through everything. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Showing up isn't the same as surrendering. Kelly attended church weekly for five years while actively resisting God the entire time. ⚡️Shame keeps people from receiving grace. Kelly avoided greeters and the pastor himself because he didn't feel...

The Real Cost of Growing Up in a Legalistic Christian Home
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Kelly Camp grew up a pastor's kid in a legalistic home, learning early how to "play church" without ever having a real relationship with God. Then, at 18, a devastating diagnosis in his family became the moment that sent him running from God for decades. This is the origin of a story about isolation, anger, and how one unprocessed wound can shape a life. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Growing up close to church and growing up close to God are not the same thing. Kelly spent 18 formative years around faith with no real relationship behind it. ⚡️ Isolation after a painful event can quietly set a...

Why Kelly Camp Still Ran From God for 32 Years | Episode 217
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Kelly Camp grew up a pastor's kid, spent over three decades running from God, and torched a 22-year marriage along the way. In this episode of The Daron Earlewine Podcast, Kelly shares how deep hurt, isolation and addiction nearly wrecked his life, how a hungover Sunday morning in 2015 became the turning point, and how he now runs the day-to-day staff and operations of the very kind of church he once refused to walk into. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Anger is almost always a secondary emotion. Underneath years of resentment toward God, Kelly discovered the real feeling was deep hurt and betrayal, not...

What Discipleship Actually Looks Like In The Gospel Of Matthew with Matt LeRoy | Episode 216
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Most people who get curious about Jesus never take the next step, because the next step they're offered doesn't fit their life. Working 80 hours a week, hundreds of miles from home, living in a camper on a job site. Sunday morning is not on the table. Matt LeRoy joins Daron Earlewine to walk through Follow Jesus, a 50 day journey through the Gospel of Matthew built for exactly those people. Ten to fifteen minutes a day. A commute or a cup of coffee. Prayer, Scripture, reflection, prayer, response. The result is a discipleship path that doesn't require a building, a background, or a seminary...

The Call The Cost And The Commission Of Discipleship with Matt LeRoy | Episode 215
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Most people who are curious about Jesus never start, because they do not know where to begin. Genesis? A random verse? A church they do not know in a town they are only in for six weeks? Matt LeRoy spent ten years building the answer. Follow Jesus is a 50 day walk through the Gospel of Matthew that takes 10 to 15 minutes a day. A commute. A cup of coffee. In this conversation, Daron Earlewine and Matt LeRoy break down the discipleship arc hiding in plain sight in Matthew, why Jesus found His first disciples at work instead of at worship, and what it looks like to plant orchards of discipleship...

A Biblical Definition of Success for Christians
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
Most of us are chasing a version of success nobody actually defined for us. Bigger platform, bigger title, bigger numbers. And when we get there, it still feels hollow. In this clip, Ken Primeau, lead pastor of Mercy Road Northeast, offers a definition that reorders everything. Success is becoming who God created you to be, then partnering with him to do what he is calling you to do. He traces it through a chain of small yeses, a plane landing in Indianapolis, two words he never expected to hear, and a wandering desert people who only moved when the cloud moved. If home has always felt hard to...

Was the Word Righteousness Mistranslated in the Bible
The Daron Earlewine Podcast
A stranger emailed Wayne Jacobson with a claim that sounded like nonsense. The word righteousness is not really in the Bible. It turned out to be a translation problem 500 years in the making. In this clip, Wayne walks through how one Greek word came to be translated righteousness in our Bibles when it is translated justice everywhere else, and what changes when you put it back. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ The Greek word behind righteousness is translated justice in every other text of its day, including Plato's Republic. ⚡️ Reading it as justice instead of righteousness reframes nearly every...
info_outlineWhat if a single mistranslated word quietly bent the way the church has understood the gospel for 500 years? Most of us were handed a faith built on personal piety, sin management, and a ticket out of hell, and then left wondering what to actually do on Monday.
In this conversation, author and former pastor Wayne Jacobsen sits down with Daron Earlewine to unpack his new book Just Love and the claim at the center of it: the Greek word we translate "righteousness" was translated "justice" everywhere else. Daron and Wayne explore what changes when love, not performance, becomes the source of transformation, and how living loved produces real justice toward the people around you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
⚡️ How one Greek word came to be translated "righteousness" instead of "justice," and why that single shift reframes nearly every verse where the word appears.
⚡️ Why salvation was never meant to be amnesty for personal sin, but a doorway into the Father's love that changes you from the inside out.
⚡️ How being filled with God's love makes you a giver of life instead of a seeker of it, so justice becomes fruit rather than religious work.
