It is in those contexts that we discover what we were created for, to be, & to become.

Finding God’s Will for Our Lives With Tripp Almon
What is God’s will for my life? It’s one of the most common—and most important—questions Christians ask. In this episode, Tripp Almon from Stand to Reason joins Dr. Jeff to tackle this profound topic. Together, they explore what Scripture reveals about God's will, how to discern it in daily life, and why our understanding of God's character is essential to the process. Whether you’re facing a major decision or simply seeking to live more faithfully, this conversation will encourage and equip you to walk with clarity, confidence, and trust. Let’s dive in! Tripp Almon serves as the Outpost Coordinator and a speaker with Stand to Reason. He is from Newnan, Georgia (just south of Atlanta) and now lives in Colorado with his wife, Megan, and their kids, Neely and Rogan.

When Culture Hates You: Persevering for the Common Good as Christians in a Hostile Public Square — Natasha Crain
As cultural hostility toward Christianity intensifies, many Christians have grown more reluctant to advocate for biblical values in the public square. But our perseverance for the common good—a good defined by God alone—is more important than ever in a culture that embraces darkness. Join Dr. Jeff as he chats with Natasha Crain and the call for Christians to unashamedly pursue righteousness in society out of our love for others. They discuss what it looks like to imitate Jesus as he models speaking the truth in love to those around him and embodies sacrificial love towards even his enemies.
