In this episode, Jerrad reflects on a recent moment at the Dad Tired retreat and how God wouldn’t stop pressing into his heart. He shares how we often want God to speak to others but not to us. This episode is a challenge to check where you’ve grown comfortable, and whether you're still all in.
You’ll hear:
• Why God keeps poking at the places we’d rather ignore
• How the Holy Spirit annoys us to pull us closer
• What it means to follow Jesus with your whole life
• Why past faith doesn’t replace present surrender
• How real discipleship involves dying to self again and again
• What your family sees that others might not
