    How to Share Jesus Without Losing People | S4E24 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    In this episode, Adam, Sammy, Allan, and Aaron get practical about evangelism—how to share Jesus in a way that’s bold, honest, and still full of love. They talk about why winning arguments can cost you people, why asking questions matters, and how real evangelism usually looks more like consistency than a one-time mic-drop moment. From coffee shop friendships to “drive-through prayer” encounters, they unpack what it means to keep the door open while still holding the line on truth.They also reflect on the power of touchpoints—how most people come to faith after many conversations, not just one—and why it’s okay if you’re not “number 28.” The crew discusses avoiding scripted Christianity, building trust over time, and letting your lifestyle back up your message so that when pain hits (and it always does), people know exactly who to call.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/Allan Walters https://www.instagram.com/alllanwalters/Aaron Levy https://www.instagram.com/_aaronlevy/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    When “Equality” Gets Twisted | S3E23 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    In this episode, Adam and Ashlee get real about confrontation—why some people avoid it, why others run toward it, and how a couple can navigate conflict without letting it turn into chaos. From TSA drama to road rage stories, they unpack the difference between being good at confrontation versus being fueled by pain, trauma, or the need to feel heard. Adam also shares how his upbringing shaped his instinct to protect peace, while Ashlee explains what it feels like to find your voice without crossing the line.They also talk about respect between men and women—why “equal” doesn’t mean “identical,” and how a culture that pretends there’s no difference can produce real harm. Adam breaks down what it looks like to lead with honor, protect without controlling, and teach sons to treat women with dignity—especially in a world where people are increasingly bold, aggressive, and dehumanizing.--Have a question about relationships?

    Stop Chasing Viral Sermons | S4E23 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    What makes preaching actually land—not just sound good? Sammy sits down with Dan for a behind-the-scenes convo on preaching, preparation, and how to handle the pressure to be “engaging” without losing biblical depth. They talk about why the next generation can be passionate but unclear, how to avoid building sermons around vibes instead of Scripture, and the difference between being a “great communicator” and being a faithful preacher of the text.Dan breaks down a simple framework for sermon development (starting points, observation, structure, research, illustration, and outlining), plus a practical way to study Scripture using different “views” (airplane, car, running, crawling). They also get into how pain shapes longevity, why you can’t shortcut formation, and end with the funniest on-the-spot challenge: Pick It Up & Preach It—because sometimes the best growth comes from doing the work in real time.--Connect with:Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/Dan Fernandez https://www.instagram.com/danfernan/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    Your Spouse’s Next Affair Might Be AI | S3E22 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    AI isn’t just a “work tool” anymore—it’s walking straight into the relationship world… and it’s about to get weird. Adam and Ashlee break down a new TLC story where a woman is openly dating her AI boyfriend (yes, he has a name, a personality, and access to her devices). And while the internet laughs, they ask the real question: what happens when a generation that’s already lonely, anxious, and craving affirmation discovers a “partner” who never says no, never challenges you, and can be customized to fit your every need?Then the conversation gets serious: emotional affairs with AI, VR/AR “dating,” kids having access to AI way too early, and how this could disrupt marriages even more than social media already has. They talk boundaries, mental health, parenting wisdom, and why “what’s weird now” might become normal faster than we think—unless believers learn discernment and build healthier habits today.--Have a question about relationships?

    When Politics Gets Personal: Navigating Race, Immigration and Bias | S4E22 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    In this episode, Adam and Sammy unpack what it actually looks like for Christians to navigate politics and social issues without turning faith into a team sport. They reflect on Adam’s recent conversation on the Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast, then zoom in on why so many political takes feel like shallow soundbites instead of thoughtful, researched convictions. The goal isn’t to tell you what to think—it’s to help you learn how to think with wisdom, clarity, and Christlike maturity.They get real about why these conversations feel so complicated: lived experience, cultural blind spots, generational pain points, and the way social media rewards outrage instead of understanding. From immigration and assimilation, to racial bias, to “limited comments” hypocrisy, Adam and Sammy challenge believers to build a diverse circle, ask better questions, do honest research, and choose unity without pretending every issue is simple. If you’ve ever felt stuck between extremes, this episode is an invitation to trade hot takes for discernment—and protect your witness while engaging the real world.--Full Leadership Podcast with Carey NieuwhofApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/emergency-episode-pastoring-angry-people-when-to-speak/id912753163?i=1000751173095YouTube: https://youtu.be/Hle3Wg9sAcc?si=fef8kK-PrM4mXSeB--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    My Wife Has a Spending Problem… and Wants a Farm | S3E21 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    This episode is pure chaos in the best way. Adam and Ashlee bounce from marriage money talk to “Mrs. Adam Mesa” identity jokes, to why taking your spouse to their “dream place” might actually make things worse. Ashlee opens up about her shopping habits (hello, TikTok dopamine), what it felt like realizing it was getting out of hand, and why letting Adam take the wheel financially has actually brought peace—not punishment.Then the conversation takes a HARD left into the dream farm era: Highland cows, goats, chickens, barns from Lowe’s, and why Adam is now publicly refusing responsibility for “the cow fund.” Oh—and somewhere in the middle, a homeless man in Nashville confirms Adam is a black man (his words, not ours), and the episode ends with… both Adam and Ashlee casually admitting they’ve been arrested before. Yeah. It’s one of those episodes.--Contribute to Ashlee's Cow Farm:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq5WXmQQooo--Have a question about relationships?

    How to Reach Young Adults Without the Hype | S4E21 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Sammy sits down with Ray Clark, young adult pastor at Grace Church Houston, for a powerful conversation about what’s really happening in young adult ministry right now. Ray shares the story of how God has grown their young adult community, what changed when they simplified their services, and why today’s young adults are more hungry for prayer, worship, and the Word than many people realize.They also dive into a deeper conversation about holiness, consecration, and what it means to cut out what’s merely common so we can grow closer to God. From practical ministry insights to personal conviction, this episode is full of encouragement for young adults, pastors, leaders, and anyone wanting to fall in love with Jesus again and live a life that is truly set apart.--Connect with:Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/Ray Clark https://www.instagram.com/rayanthonyclark/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    Public Pressure Isn’t Love: Protect Your Spouse | S3E20 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    In this episode, Adam and Ashlee unpack manipulation in marriage and relationships—from subtle “shame tactics” to using outside voices to force a spouse to agree, forgive, or comply. They react to a viral moment where an Olympic athlete publicly admits cheating and frames it as a dramatic apology, and they explain why “public gestures” can sometimes be more about pressure and image than true repentance and repair.They also talk about what healthy transparency looks like versus emotional abuse, why couples often try to “prove they’re right” by pulling in friends, family, or even pastors, and how isolation (“decisions in a vacuum”) leads to even worse choices. Plus: a real-life example of how small misunderstandings can spiral, why strong marriages recover quickly, and how to pursue accountability without humiliating the person you love.--Join our AFTER I DO community for Exclusive Content & community!www.afterido.app--Have a question about relationships?
