    Episode 28

    In this episode, Brant responds to a heartbreaking email from a listener whose husband unexpectedly left her family. He talks about why some truths are best shared in their proper season, what it really means to "mourn with those who mourn," and how forgiveness doesn't minimize pain—it points us toward freedom. Then Brant shares a chapter from The Truth About Us, exploring our deep need to justify ourselves, compare ourselves to others, and defend our own goodness.

    Episode 27

    In this episode, Brant shares an essay inspired by an African proverb: "If you want to find out what kind of tree it is, bump into it and see what falls." It leads to a challenging question for all of us: when we're inconvenienced, criticized, threatened, or hurt, what comes out?

    Episode 26

    What if one of the strongest arguments for Christianity isn't an argument at all? In this episode, Brant reflects on a powerful interview featuring mathematician and Christian thinker John Lennox, where an atheist host admits that what stands out most isn't Lennox's intellect—it's his peace. That conversation leads into a deeper look at what makes Jesus visible in a world that expects anger, retaliation, and power plays. Brant explores why so many people confuse love with weakness, why Peter's instructions to believers are still so challenging today, and how responding with honor, patience, and love can become one of the most compelling testimonies of faith.

    Episode 25

    Why is it often easier to love humanity than the people right in front of us? In this episode, Brant explores one of Jesus' most challenging teachings from Luke 6: "Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you." What if these commands aren't just difficult spiritual ideals, but the key to a freer, lighter, and more peaceful life? Along the way, Brant reflects on creativity, authenticity, and why being imperfectly human is better than trying to be polished. He also shares listener stories about forgiveness, difficult family relationships, and the struggle of putting Jesus' teachings into practice when the people who hurt us are the ones closest to us.

    What happens when forgiveness goes so deep that you begin rooting for the person who hurt you most?

    Episode 22

    Brant unpacks why reacting in anger is actually the harder way to live, how praying for enemies softens the heart, and why forgiveness is anything but weakness In this episode, a powerful story from a friend whose wife's purse was stolen—along with cash, gift cards, IDs, credit cards, and even their car key fob.

    Episode 21

    What happens when loving something good turns into hating people who threaten it? In this episode, Brant reads a powerful email from a Marine veteran who wrestled with what it meant to love his enemies in the middle of war. It sparks a deeper conversation about anger, idolatry, justice, patriotism, and how even good things can become destructive when they take God's place in our hearts. Brant also explores why evil almost never sees itself as evil, how grievance can transform people, and why praying for enemies changes us just as much as it changes the people we pray for. This is an honest, thoughtful look at forgiveness, reordered loves, and the kind of inner transformation Jesus actually invites us into.
