For The Confused 20s

Treasure

For the Confused 20s is a space for the in-between season, when life feels unclear, faith is being stretched, and you’re becoming someone you don’t fully recognize yet. Through honest conversations, we talk about navigating your twenties with God, learning, unlearning, and choosing faith even when the answers aren’t obvious. This isn’t a podcast about having it all figured out. It’s about walking gently with God while you figure it out.
