#083: When Bible Reading Isn’t Peaceful (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Lance wants to know if our quiet time is supposed to leave us feeling at peace, or if there is something deeper happening when we walk away feeling convicted and unsettled. This week on The Journey, we wrestle with the tension between the restfulness we hope to find in God's presence and the conviction that often meets us there instead. Drawing on Colossians 3:15, which calls us to let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts, we explore what happens when the very morning we read that verse turns
#081 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on The Journey, we returned to a recurring theme of the show: the person and work of the Holy Spirit. We were reminded that the Holy Spirit is not a Sunday-only presence but a constant guide, counselor, and comforter who desires to lead every moment of our lives. As followers of Christ, we're called to surrender to the Spirit's direction not just in our quiet times, but in our workplaces, our homes, our relationships, and even in the mundane routines of an ordinary Monday.

The conversation challenged us to examine whether we are t
#079: God Equips The Called feat. Pastor James Oney (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on The Journey, we welcome James Oney back to Ridgecrest as we explore what it means to be called by God into a role you do not feel fully prepared for. Drawing on his own journey from staff member to senior pastor, James shared how God confirmed his calling through prayer, a dream, and a series of unmistakable providential moments. He also addressed the reality of spiritual loneliness in leadership, the challenge of measuring genuine transformation in a congregation, and the importanc
#078: Can We Be TOO Relatable? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week on The Journey, we explored the tension between authenticity and the call to be set apart as ministers of the gospel. Drawing from a quote by Josh Howerton about pastors being out of touch with "everyday" people, we examine what it means to be relatable without compromising the integrity of the message. The conversation weaves through historical examples such as Charles Spurgeon, contemporary figures such as Ed Newton and Mark Driscoll, and scriptural grounding from 1 and 2 Timothy to
