Get Married Young: Brad Wilcox | Episode 370
Modern culture tells young adults to delay marriage for career and "freedom," but Brad’s talk, Get Married Young, uses data to challenge that script. He breaks down the Midas Mindset—the belief that happiness comes from chasing success—by showing that married fathers are statistically the most fulfilled. This isn’t a plea for nostalgia; it’s a reality check on what actually brings lasting joy. Brad reframes marriage not as a loss of independence, but as a vital transition from boyhood to maturity. By prioritizing commitment and shared purpose over endless self-actualization, he offers a countercultural path to a more meaningful life. If you're ready to rethink the timeline for success, this conversation is essential listening. Resources: Watch the talk, by Brad Wilcox on THINQMedia.com.

In this THINQ talk, A Brief History of Renewal, we step back to see how renewal has surfaced again and again during moments of tension, fatigue, and longing within the church. By tracing patterns from the early church to modern awakenings, the talk reveals that renewal rarely looks the same, but often begins with humility, honesty, and a return to first loves. Rather than chasing the next movement, this conversation invites thoughtful discernment—paying attention to how God is already at work and considering what faithfulness looks like in our time.
