How To Hear From God Through Listening Prayer

How To Hear From God Through Listening Prayer
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 vanity. ⚡️Listening prayer means asking God what He wants you to know, then sitting quietly instead of trying to perform the right words. ⚡️Playing to your actual strengths, instead of forcing strengths you don't have, is a form of stewardship, not settling.

Finding Your Identity In Christ (A Guide For College Students) | Episode 218
Ty Earlewine just wrapped his first internship with his dad, Daron, and it changed how he sees himself, his faith, and his future. In this episode, Daron and Ty sit down to unpack what it actually looks like to grow in the knowledge of God and the knowledge of self at the same time, why chasing spiritual "streaks" can quietly wreck your walk with Jesus, and what it means to discover your God given identity in the middle of an ordinary, uncertain season. If you've ever felt like you're behind in your faith or unsure who you really are, this conversation is for you. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Your identity in Christ isn't something you perform your way into. It's something you're invited to listen for, receive, and let other people confirm. ⚡️ Consistency with God isn't about protecting a streak. It's about stacking days, so a missed day doesn't erase the ground you've already gained. ⚡️ You don't need years of experience to have a genuine impact. You just need to be honest about what you actually know, and keep growing from there.

Kelly Camp on Hitting Rock Bottom Before Surrendering to Christ

Kelly Camp on Hitting Rock Bottom Before Surrendering to Christ
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 worthy to be shown kindness. ⚡️Breakthrough often comes from being told the truth, not being told to clean up first. "Jesus doesn't care if you're hungover" was the sentence that finally ended Kelly's resistance. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — An ultimatum and a reluctant "yes" to church 02:00 — Five years of white-knuckling in the back row 04:00 — The hungover Sunday that changed everything 06:00 — The sentence that broke through 07:00 — Praying the prayer CONNECT WITH DARON Website: Coaching: Email: Support the mission: Follow Jesus releases November.

The Real Cost of Growing Up in a Legalistic Christian Home
09/23/2026
The Real Cost of Growing Up in a Legalistic Christian Home
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 life's trajectory. Kelly's choice not to talk to anyone about his father's diagnosis became a defining, decades-long turning point. ⚡️ Unprocessed pain doesn't disappear, it compounds. What started as private anger toward God became a pattern Kelly carried into his relationships for over 30 years. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — A pastor's kid and an "elite group" of PKs 02:00 — Growing up in a legalistic home 04:00 — The models of faith Kelly actually admired 06:30 — The diagnosis that changed everything 08:00 — The decision that started decades of running CONNECT WITH DARON Website: https://daronearlewine.com Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Email: [email protected] Support the mission: blackbirdmission.com/give Follow Jesus releases November.

Why Kelly Camp Still Ran From God for 32 Years | Episode 217
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 rebellion. ⚡️ Information alone does not create transformation. A weekly rhythm of talking through a Sunday message, practicing it, and reflecting on it with two other men is what actually formed Kelly into a disciple. ⚡️ Isolation is one of the most dangerous decisions a person can make after a wound. Kelly's refusal to talk to anyone about his father's diagnosis at 18 set the trajectory for the next three decades.

What Discipleship Actually Looks Like In The Gospel Of Matthew with Matt LeRoy | Episode 216

What Discipleship Actually Looks Like In The Gospel Of Matthew with Matt LeRoy | Episode 216
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 degree. Just a willingness to start. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ The whole Gospel of Matthew has a discipleship arc built into it. Matthew 4 is the call, come follow me. Matthew 16 is the cost, take up your cross. Matthew 28 is the commission, go make disciples. Jesus says the last one to the exact people He called in the first one. ⚡️ The margin is actually the center. Jesus consistently goes to people others overlook. Which means the fringe is not the edge of the story. It is where the story has always been happening. ⚡️ Information is not the goal. Transformation is. Every week of Follow Jesus includes an action step, not just a reading, because we already have more information than we can use. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — The Discipleship Arc Hidden Inside Matthew 05:37 — What Comes After Volume One 11:04 — Jesus Found His First Disciples At Work 16:14 — The Call The Cost And The Commission 21:36 — Why Following Jesus Is Never Individualistic CONNECT WITH DARON Website: https://daronearlewine.com Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Email: [email protected] Support the mission: blackbirdmission.com/give Follow Jesus releases November.

The Call The Cost And The Commission Of Discipleship with Matt LeRoy | Episode 215
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 among 10 million people in the dirt world who have never seen a church that fits their life. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ The whole Gospel of Matthew has a discipleship arc built into it. Matthew 4 is the call, come follow me. Matthew 16 is the cost, take up your cross. Matthew 28 is the commission, go make disciples. Jesus says the last one to the exact people He called in the first one. ⚡️ The margin is actually the center.

A Biblical Definition of Success for Christians
08/26/2026
A Biblical Definition of Success for Christians
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 name, this will land. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Success is becoming who God made you to be, not out-performing the person next to you. ⚡️ God often speaks in words you would never have chosen yourself. ⚡️ Home is not a place on a map. It is the presence of God. CONNECT WITH DARON Website https://daronearlewine.com Coaching https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Email [email protected] Where is home for you right now?

Was the Word Righteousness Mistranslated in the Bible

Was the Word Righteousness Mistranslated in the Bible
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 verse where the word appears. ⚡️ The Reformation resolved righteousness through the cross but left transformation unresolved, which is exactly the gap this reopens.

When The Greatest Prophet Questioned Jesus

When The Greatest Prophet Questioned Jesus
John the Baptist baptized Jesus. He was Jesus' cousin. He was called the greatest man born of a woman. And he still ended up in prison asking, "Are you really the one, or should we wait for someone else?" In this clip from Episode 207 of The Daron Earlewine Podcast, Daron walks through the emotional weight of John's prison crisis and what Jesus' surprising response reveals about faith when your circumstances don't match your expectations. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Even the strongest believers wrestle with doubt when God doesn't show up the way they expected ⚡️ Jesus didn't rescue John from prison, He sent a message that essentially said trust me anyway ⚡️ The moments you feel most abandoned by God are often the exact invitations to deeper faith CONNECT WITH DARON Website https://daronearlewine.com Coaching https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Email [email protected] Watch the full episode for the complete conversation on the messy middle, biblical repentance, and what to do when God feels distant.

Why Pushing People Toward Jesus Usually Backfires
08/05/2026
Why Pushing People Toward Jesus Usually Backfires
What if the way you were taught to share your faith is actually the reason people keep pulling away? In this clip from The Daron Earlewine Podcast, Daron breaks down a model he calls "attack and extract" — find someone who doesn't know Jesus, challenge everything about them, and if they accept, pull them out of their old life into your camp. It sounds bold. It feels righteous. And it is almost never how Jesus operated. Daron walks through why this model does real damage, what nearly happened to U2 early in their career because of it, and what the actual alternative looks like — building a bridge of trust that can handle the weight of truth. This one hits different if you've ever felt like sharing your faith had to be uncomfortable or confrontational to count. KEY TAKAWAYS ⚡️ The "attack and extract" model prioritizes winning an argument over building a relationship — and Jesus consistently chose the opposite approach. ⚡️ U2 nearly quit the band because religious leaders convinced them they had to be extracted out of rock and roll to follow Jesus. What that almost cost the kingdom is worth sitting with. ⚡️ A bridge of trust that can handle the weight of truth is not a soft strategy. It is the strategy — and it requires both courage and genuine relationship.

There's a Member of the Trinity Nobody's Talking About | Summer of Sermons
When life hits hard, most of us either crumble or, at best, claw our way back to where we were before. Daron Earlewine wants something better for you. In this Summer of Sermons message from Mercy Road Northeast in Indianapolis, he opens Hebrews 11 and 12 to unpack what it means to build an anti-fragile faith, the kind where pain doesn't break you, it reveals you and grows you. He names the three lies the enemy whispers when you're under pressure, the difference between lament and complaint, and why your identity has to be the foundation before any of it makes sense. KEY TAKAWAYS ⚡️ Fragile faith crumbles and resilient faith recovers, but anti-fragile faith actually levels up through every setback. ⚡️ The enemy attacks with three specific lies, you're alone, it all depends on you, and you have no purpose, and agreement is what gives them power. ⚡️ Lament moves toward God and complaint moves away from Him, and learning the difference is how you stay honest without faking your faith.

Confronting Sin Without Condemnation | Summer of Sermons
07/15/2026
Confronting Sin Without Condemnation | Summer of Sermons
We treat sin the way Daron treated a herniated disc, by icing the symptoms and hoping the real problem goes away on its own. It doesn't. It grows, it hurts people, and it slowly stops breaking our hearts at all. In this Summer of Sermons message from Mercy Road Northeast in Indianapolis, Daron Earlewine opens 1 Corinthians 5 to talk honestly about church hurt, the danger of treating grace like a credit card you keep charging, and why the people who love us most are the ones willing to call us up instead of just calling us out. KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡️ Real healing deals with what's broken inside, not just the symptoms we can see on the surface. ⚡️ Grace was never meant to function like a credit card we keep charging while our sin stops breaking our hearts. ⚡️ A call up culture confronts sin inside real friendship, not from a distance, and it protects against church hurt.

Your Purpose Never Made Sense Until These Five Words | Summer of Sermons

Your Purpose Never Made Sense Until These Five Words | Summer of Sermons
Most of us treat the Bible like a long text we skim and skip. Too long, didn't read. The cost of that is bigger than we think. When you don't know where you came from or why you're here, you start living like life is random, and that quietly drains your purpose, your work, and your relationships. In this Summer of Sermons message, Daron Earlewine opens Genesis chapter one and the first five words of the Bible to show what it means to be created on purpose and for purpose, and how reading Scripture begins to repair the broken reflection we've been living through. TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ The first five words of the Bible, in the beginning God created, reframe your life as designed rather than accidental. ⚡️ Humans don't just reproduce their own kind, they uniquely create the future, because we carry the image of God. ⚡️ We currently see ourselves through a broken mirror, and engaging Scripture is how the missing pieces get filled back in.

Why Most Christians Still Follow Everyone Except Jesus | Summer of Sermons
07/01/2026
Why Most Christians Still Follow Everyone Except Jesus | Summer of Sermons
We follow people all day long. Influencers, icons, feeds, and the five voices we spend the most time with. The problem is simple. We slowly become like whatever we follow, and most of us never stopped to ask if those things are worthy of our lives. In this Summer of Sermons message, Daron Earlewine walks through Jesus' shortest and most personal invitation, come follow me, and exposes how Western Christianity quietly swapped imitation for information. We turned discipleship into a golden ticket to heaven instead of a daily apprenticeship that actually changes us. The stakes are real. A life built on the wrong foundation looks fine until the floods come. Following Jesus is the difference between a house that stands and a heap of ruins. TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ The word "Christian" appears three times in the New Testament. The word "disciple" appears over two hundred. The goal was never to be a Christian, it was to become like Jesus. ⚡️ Your real beliefs are not what you say in public. They show up in where you actually go for wisdom and who you actually follow. ⚡️ Following Jesus means being with him, becoming like him, and doing what he did.

He Built a Thousand Person Church By Saying One Word with Ken Primeau | Episode 214

He Built a Thousand Person Church By Saying One Word with Ken Primeau | Episode 214
Most leaders are waiting on a dramatic, burning bush moment to tell them what their life is for. So they stall. They spin their wheels, convinced the "real" calling has not arrived yet. In this episode, Daron Earlewine sits down with Ken Primeau, lead pastor of Mercy Road Northeast, who built a thousand person church without ever planning to. Ken's whole story is a chain of small yeses. A blank check handed to God in a Panama outhouse pit, a scholarship that came through at the last second, a dream that pointed him to a state he could not find on a map, and two words he heard as his plane touched down in Indiana. If you have been measuring your life by milestones nobody handed you, this conversation reframes what a faithful, purposeful life actually looks like. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Purpose gets built through small steps of obedience, not one cinematic calling. ⚡️ A surrendered "blank check" yes to God strips the fear out of risk. ⚡️ Healthy leadership shares the weight instead of building everything around one personality. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Why Saying Yes Beats Having a Plan 05:30 — Moving Countries and Finding Purpose in Pain 11:00 — The Little Yeses That Shaped a Life 16:30 — The Blank Check Moment in Panama 22:00 — Learning to Hear God's Voice 29:00 — The Dream That Pointed to Indiana 34:00 — Why the Celebrity Pastor Model Is Broken 40:00 — The Christmas Card That Built Trust 45:30 — A New Definition of Success 51:00 — Why Home Is the Presence of God CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] CONNECT WITH KEN PRIMEAU Website: https://exponential.org/person/ken-primeau/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenneth-primeau-0a1aaaaa Which yes is God asking you to say right now?

How God's Love Changes the Way You Actually Live with Wayne Jacobsen | Episode 213

How God's Love Changes the Way You Actually Live with Wayne Jacobsen | Episode 213
What 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. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — The Word That Distorted the Gospel 05:00 — How One Greek Word Got Mistranslated 10:00 — Why a Stamped Ticket to Heaven Misses the Point 15:00 — Love as the Source of Change Not the Reward 20:00 — Recovering the Word Just 25:00 — How Justice Gets Written on Your Heart 30:00 — Living Loved Instead of Performing 36:00 — Salvation as a Doorway Not Amnesty 41:00 — The Thirst Only Jesus Satisfies 46:00 — When Righteous People Commit the Greatest Injustice 51:00 — Your First Step Start With Being Loved CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] CONNECT WITH WAYNE JACOBSEN Website: lifestream.org Podcast: The God Journey What hit you hardest in this conversation?

Discovering Your God Given Purpose And Calling with 3 Generations of Earlewine Men | Episode 212

Discovering Your God Given Purpose And Calling with 3 Generations of Earlewine Men | Episode 212
Three generations of Earlewine men sit down at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to close out our IMS series. Cole is months away from his football identity ending and doesn't know who he is on the other side of it. Ty is staring at a future that's a complete question mark. And Dave, who came to faith from nothing and took risk after risk to follow a call, shows them what decades of trusting God actually looks like. If you've ever wrapped your worth in what you do, this conversation is for you. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Your identity is not your achievement. As Cole puts it, football is what he does, not who he is, and that distinction changes how you handle the day it ends. ⚡️ Courage to follow a calling is often modeled before it's chosen. Dave's willingness to say yes to God gave his kids and grandkids permission to take their own risks. ⚡️ God doesn't move, you do. Stillness and the unknown feel threatening until you trust that He's already everywhere you're headed. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Three Generations At The Indy 500 03:30 — The Risk That Moved A Family To Arizona 09:00 — Why Faith Feels Like Support Not Pressure 18:00 — Did You Think Your Son Was Crazy 24:30 — What Happens When Your Identity Ends 30:00 — Learning To Trust The Unknown 37:00 — A Grandfather's Advice For The Road Ahead CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] If this conversation hit home, drop a comment telling us where you're being asked to trust God with an unknown.

The 2 AM Text That Made My Son Switch His Major with Ty Earlewine | Episode 211

The 2 AM Text That Made My Son Switch His Major with Ty Earlewine | Episode 211
Most students go to college locked into a plan, then collide with reality. Daron's son Ty Earlewine got to Grand Canyon University, started his pre-PT major, and within a month sent a 2 AM text home that changed everything. In this episode, Daron and Ty sit down at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and unpack what it really takes for a young adult to hear God's voice about their calling. They talk about the difference between your interests and your foundation, the friends who can see what you cannot see in yourself, and why some people are wired for the oval and some are wired for the road course. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Your friends will often see the calling on your life before you do. Choose them accordingly. ⚡️God is not always dropping crumbs on the path. Sometimes He is laying out full course meals you are walking right past. ⚡️ "Have-to" people and "help-do" people both have value. Knowing which one you are is how you stop comparing your race to somebody else's. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 — Welcome from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway 5:30 — The hardest part of being 2,000 miles from home 12:00 — How Ty built a new "school family" from scratch 17:30 — The 2 AM text that changed his major 23:00 — When your calling shows up as a full course meal 28:30 — How a dorm room Bible study went from 5 to 18 guys 36:00 — Business as ministry: a 19-year-old shadows the work 42:30 — The road course life vs. the oval track life 47:00 — What every parent needs to hear about their kid's calling CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] If this episode helped you think differently about your own calling or your kid's calling, hit subscribe and leave a comment with the one thing that hit hardest.

When God Strips Away Your Identity with Cole Earlewine | Episode 210
What happens when a college athlete realizes football was never going to be enough? In this episode, Daron sits down with his oldest son Cole Earlewine at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a raw conversation about junior year at Ball State University and playing football. Injuries, a "gray" wilderness season, the leadership of a team-only Bible study at "the grape," 52 teammates packed into his living room on Maundy Thursday, and the slow process of becoming a follower of Jesus instead of just a fan. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ The wilderness or "gray" season is often God slowing your life down enough to hand you a new invitation, not a sign that something is broken. ⚡️Platform without preparation will collapse you. Months of hidden faithfulness build the capacity to carry public impact. ⚡️ A real relationship with Jesus is not just doctrine. It is daily conversation, scripture, fight against temptation, and dependence on the Holy Spirit. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Live from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway 05:30 — The 30,000 foot view of a hard junior year at Ball State 11:24 — Stepping into leadership of the football Bible study 17:20 — The gray season and God's slow down moments 23:25 — Platform without preparation is a trap 28:41 — The Easter night that drew 52 teammates into his living room 35:30 — From fan of Jesus to follower of Jesus CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] If this episode encouraged you, hit subscribe, leave a rating, and send it to one friend walking through their own gray season.

The Bible Doesn't Have to Be Scary | Episode 209
If you've ever stared at the Bible and thought "this is too big, too scary, I don't even know where to start," this episode is for you. Daron Earlewine sits down with PJ Towle and Darren "Coop" Cooper to break down the simplest, most practical way to get into Scripture. No seminary degree required. No guilt trip. Just real talk about how three guys who all struggled with reading at some point built a habit that actually changed them.

Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Hearing the living Word of God is built on being saturated in the written Word of God ⚡️God designed multiple ways to engage with Scripture. Audio, written, community, solo.

It's a catalytic process for transformation TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Why Bible reading feels intimidating 04:15 — Three rookie year stories from Daron, PJ, and Coop 3:00 — God meets you where He wired you 22:30 — Stop turning Bible time into a checklist 27:00 — The best places in the Bible to start 33:00 — The GROW framework that changes everything CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] Like what you heard?

When God Says No, He Means Yes | Episode 208
You've begged God to take it away. The sin. The struggle. The thing you can't seem to beat. And it's still there. Most of us read that silence as indictment. Daron walks through Paul's thorn in the flesh, the bronze serpent in Numbers 21, and his own three-month wrestling match to show why God's "no" is actually the path to your freedom. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Why God's no to your prayer for change is not rejection but invitation ⚡️Why repentance means changing the way you think, not feeling worse about yourself ⚡️ Why understanding why you sin matters more than stopping what you do TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 — Welcome back to part two 02:02 — Paul's thorn in the flesh in 2 Corinthians 12 12:36 — My grace is sufficient and what that actually means 21:23 — The Israelites, the snakes, and what God refused to take away 28:29 — John 3:14 and the bronze serpent connection most people miss 35:33 — The two questions to ask in every struggle CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone walking through their messy middle.

When God Doesn't Show Up Like You Expected | Episode 207
Have you ever felt offended at God when life didn't go the way you prayed? Daron, Coop, and PJ open up Part 1 of The Messy Middle, the space between the kingdom being here and being fully here. Through John the Baptist's prison crisis and the Greek word metanoia, this episode reframes disappointment with God as an invitation, not an indictment, and redefines what repentance actually means. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ The moments you feel most offended at God are often the exact invitations to deeper faith ⚡️Biblical repentance is not shame-fueled behavior change, it's metanoia, a transformed way of thinking ⚡️ Trusting the story means trusting the Author, especially when your prison cell feels nothing like a kingdom TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Opening And Why This Episode Got Split In Half 03:25 The Messy Middle Now But Not Yet 11:31 John The Baptist Goes To Jail For Doing It Right 18:34 The Cousin In Prison Who Had To Ask Jesus Are You The One 26:47 Why Most Christians Misunderstand Repentance 31:10 What Metanoia Actually Means 39:06 Halftime Pause For Reflection CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] If this episode hit you in the messy middle, share it with someone who needs the reminder, leave a comment with where you're feeling stuck, and hit subscribe so you don't miss Part 2. #DaronEarlewinePodcast #MessyMiddle #FaithJourney #ChristianPodcast #KingdomLiving #JohnTheBaptist #Repentance #PurposeDriven #FaithAndDoubt #BlackbirdMission

You Don't Need All the Answers to Share Your Faith | Episode 206
Most believers freeze when they hear the word "evangelism." But what if the method you were taught is actually what's keeping people away, not drawing them in? Daron Earlewine and PJ Towle break down why evangelism feels so hard for most Christians, expose the "attack and extract" model that has done real damage, and lay out a simple, practical, and deeply Jesusy framework for sharing your faith in a way that actually works. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Evangelism is a commission for every believer, a unique calling for about 11% of people, and a gift of the Spirit, you don't have to have all the answers. ⚡️The "attack and extract" model is the opposite of how Jesus operated. Building a bridge of trust that can handle the weight of truth is the actual strategy. ⚡️ People of peace are already orbiting your life. They're drawn to you, open to the kingdom, and they serve you. Respond to them and watch what God does. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 — Why Evangelism Feels Like a Curse Word 5:03 — The Fear Nobody Talks About 11:21 — Three Things Evangelism Actually Is 19:38 — Attack and Extract: The Model That Kills Connection 25:51 — Build a Bridge of Trust 35:42 — Three Markers of a Person of Peace 42:59 — The Relate and Lead Matrix 46:46 — Resources to Discover Your Calling KEY QUOTES: ⚡️"Build a bridge of trust that can handle the weight of truth." ⚡️"You may be the only light they have and that's exactly where you need to be." ⚡️"God is setting people up for you.

Your Broken Places? They're Your Superpower | Episode 205
Most leaders carry their scars in secret. They've bought the lie that their failures, wounds, and struggles disqualify them from meaningful impact. So they hide, perform, and self-protect — and wonder why their leadership feels hollow.

When Your Calling Doesn't Look Like Ministry with Luke Newton | Episode 204
What happens when 20 years of ministry end? Luke Newton was a worship pastor for nearly two decades, megachurch stages, church plants, the whole thing. Then the occupation ended and the real journey into calling began. In this conversation, Luke and Daron dig into what it actually means to be called, not just the romantic version, but the real version. The one that shows up when your title disappears, your identity gets rattled, and you're starting over at ground zero, wondering if any of it still counts. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Why calling is less "found" and more "formed." ⚡️ The difference between trusting the Caller and understanding the call. ⚡️ How the people around you might be the calling you've been chasing all along. KEY QUOTES: ⚡️ "Calling is less found than it is formed." ⚡️ "You have to trust the Caller more than you understand the call." ⚡️ "Calling is relationships. Everything else is just the details." TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 — Cold Open 6:30 — Luke Newton's origin: Texas, farming, and a basketball dream 12:00 — Growing up as a pastor's kid (the real version) 19:00 — Worship ministry begins: 3000 Plus and answering the call 27:00 — Rogue Collective Coaching 28:00 — Calling: found vs. formed 35:00 — Landing at a megachurch and feeling invincible 43:00 — When the occupation ends and identity unravels 53:00 — Trust the Caller more than you understand the call 59:00 — God never ages: "Do it again" 1:04:00 — People of peace and the calling that was always about others Ready to discover your purpose?

How to Hear God's Voice Every Day | Episode 203
Most believers have heard 1 Corinthians 13 at every wedding they've ever attended. But 1 Corinthians 14? It's the chapter the church largely skipped. In it, Paul says to eagerly desire the gift of prophecy with the same burning zeal you'd covet your first cup of coffee in the morning. In this episode, Daron, PJ, and Producer Coop wade into the deep end to talk about what prophecy actually is, why most of us are afraid of it, and how something as simple as genuine encouragement might be the training wheels that gets you started. If you've been feeling stuck, spinning your wheels, knowing there's got to be more, book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Prophecy begins in your imagination. God often speaks through pictures, symbols, memories, and songs — not booming declarations. Understanding how He uses imagination changes everything about how you listen. ⚡️ Encouragement is prophecy with training wheels. Start by speaking specific, genuine truth into the people around you. As you grow in that, the bigger words become easier to receive and give. ⚡️ Prophecy is received in community, not delivered in isolation. New Testament prophecy is always weighed, discerned, and tested together, which protects everyone from abuse and makes the whole thing more life-giving. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Welcome and Intro 1:26 - Three Keys to Discovering Purpose 7:03 - What Is the Gift of Prophecy 13:20 - Building a Sustained Relationship with Jesus 18:39 - A Personal Prophetic Encounter 26:54 - The Batman Story 30:38 - Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14 and What Paul Actually Said 43:07 - The Imagination and the Unseen Real 53:10 - Five Practical Steps to Grow in Prophecy CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs it.

Discover Your Strengths Now | Episode 202
Most people spend their whole lives trying to fix what they're bad at. In this episode, Daron sits down with his wife Julie, a newly certified StrengthsFinder coach, to talk about what happens when you stop chasing well-rounded and start living from how God actually wired you. After 25 years of marriage, they finally have language for why they drove each other crazy. And that language is changing everything. Ready to discover who God created you to be? Book a free 30-minute discovery call at RogueCollectiveCoaching.com. KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ Your lowest strengths are not your failures. They are revealing something powerful about how God designed you, and understanding them can completely reframe your conflicts at home and at work. ⚡️ In marriage, opposites do not just attract. They complete. When you stop trying to make your spouse operate like you and start understanding their God-given wiring, grace becomes possible in a whole new way. ⚡️ You only get one shot at your two most important roles. You are your spouse's first spouse and your children's parent. Discovering who God made you to be in those roles is not optional. It's urgent. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Why Julie Is Actually Excited to Be on the Podcast 1:54 The Confession: Even the Purpose Guy Didn't Know His Wife's Strengths 4:15 Why Julie Decided to Become a Certified StrengthsFinder Coach 8:28 The Four Domains of Strength and Why Opposites Attract 12:12 First Impressions and What Opposites Actually Do to Each Other 15:47 Advice for Anyone in Their First Decade of Marriage or Career 22:55 The Business Case for Knowing Your Team's Strengths 24:20 Rogue Collective Coaching Call to Action 25:04 The Corner Turn: Holding Two Perspectives at Once 36:06 Reject the Myth of Being Well-Rounded 39:19 What Julie Wants to Do With Her Certification 46:20 You Only Get One Shot at Your Two Most Important Roles CONNECT WITH DARON: Website: https://daronearlewine.com Rogue Collective Coaching: https://roguecollectivecoaching.com Blackbird Mission: https://blackbirdmission.com Email: [email protected] Want to join Julie's upcoming women's strengths coaching groups?

The Four Tenets of a Kingdom Worldview (And Why They Change Everything) | Episode 201
03/11/2026
The Four Tenets of a Kingdom Worldview (And Why They Change Everything) | Episode 201
What if the biggest shift you could make isn't trying harder but seeing differently? Most of us are operating from a worldview built on scarcity, control, perfection, and self-protection — and we don't even know it. In this episode, Daron Earlewine, PJ Towle, and Darren Cooper unpack the four tenets of the connection or kingdom worldview: abundance, mystery, fallibility, and others-focus. This is not motivational content. This is a lens-changing conversation rooted in scripture that will challenge how you see God, yourself, and everyone around you. 🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS: ⚡️ God is looking for conduits, not hoarders, and what you do with what you have right now is already a statement about what you believe ⚡️ Mystery is not the enemy of faith; it is the invitation into it. Compassionate curiosity changes every relationship you have ⚡️ Your failures are not final.
