    Brewing Narrative - Marcela Tobar

    Episode eight is here! We were so happy to be able to talk with the lovely Marcela Tobar. We wanted to chat with Marcela because we know her to be someone that passionately loves God and people. My (Landon) favorite part of our conversation was when we got to go in depth about her journey from El Salvador to the States and how her faith has grown, been challenged, and transformed since moving here. But there's so much more! Marcela's spirit is so contagious (the good kind). Oh, and we also enjoyed a different beverage on this episode. Can you guess what it is? Don't miss out on this! Enjoy, friends!

    Brewing Narrative - Janice Wade

    Season two, episode seven is HERE! We had the absolute pleasure of talking with Janice Wade. Folks, there is a ton of good stuff here, so buckle yourselves in! Janice takes us back to her childhood and teenage years and shares the difficult memories of her sexual abuse by her father, the drug and alcohol abuse that resulted from that, and how all of it fostered a rebellion in her heart, especially towards the idea of a Good Father in Heaven. We also talk about the powerful ways God begins to work in our lives before we ever know Him, and how God places integral people in our lives so that we can have a chance to know Him. Finally, we talk about how Janice has allowed God to use all of her pain and brokenness to connect with others through her profession as a licensed counselor and a ministry leader specifically dealing with sexual trauma.

    Brewing Narrative - Leighton Flowers

    We're really excited to bring you a conversation with Dr. Leighton Flowers! We wanted to switch things up just a little for this one. This is more of an informational episode! Leighton is the Director of Youth Evangelism for Texas Baptists and is also an Adjunct Professor of Theology for Trinity Seminary. Leighton was a Calvinist for about ten years and since making his way out of it, he has been committed to teaching others about God's love and provision for all people, contrary to the teachings of Calvinism. Don't miss this! If you would like to hear more from Leighton, check out his podcast Soteriology 101 (on all major platforms). Enjoy, friends!

    Brewing Narrative - F. LaGard Smith

    Our fifth episode of season two is here! We loved our conversation with F. LaGard Smith. We did a deep dive into LaGard’s childhood and what it was like growing up as a “PK” (preacher’s kid) and striving to own his own faith at a young age. We spent some time talking about his many years of practicing law, and how the art of questioning makes its way into the life of a believer, and of course we touched on some of the many fantastic books that Smith has authored. You don’t want to miss this one! For more information on F. LaGard Smith and to access his works, visit lagardsmith.com.

    Brewing Narrative - TC Brown

    Ok, folks! Episode four of season two is finally here! We had the pleasure of talking with our good friend TC Brown. We covered quite a bit in this episode, so get ready for a fun (emotional at times) ride. What's easy to notice about TC is that he speaks about the things that he's passionate about. We talked about his past as a wrestler, where that led him, and the role that it still has in his life today, the tragic loss of his sister, Mallory, but the BIG impact she left on his life and everyone else she knew, and how we can focus on the most important things in this life rather than distracting ourselves with the temporary. Check it out!

    Brewing Narrative - Brett Maessen

    Season two, episode three is here! We welcomed our friend and brother, Brett Maessen on the podcast. On this episode we spend some time talking about sports (baseball in both Brett and Matt’s case) and how they fit into the context of discipleship. We also talked about the tragic loss of a brother, the excitement of a new son, and becoming a young campus minister at a new church plant in Columbia, Missouri. Also, let me not forget, you might even hear a few college dorm stories! Enjoy, friends.

    Brewing Narrative - Darius Williams

    For our first episode of season two, we invited Darius Williams on the podcast! In this episode we did a deep dive into Darius' childhood, where he discusses his relationship with his dad, and how his godly influence shaped him into who he is today. He also talks about why he decided to relocate to St. Louis and that sometimes we just can't seem to figure out what God is doing through it all. You'll also hear a bit about the challenges our culture has been facing and how Jesus can make a difference through it all. Just a warning, your jaws may be tired after this because it's hard not to smile when you hear Darius' contagious enthusiasm and love for people!
