    The Most Dangerous Person in Your Church | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin, Ansley Huckaby, and Carlos Fernandez dig into Acts 5 and the story of Ananias and Sapphira, unpacking one of the most sobering passages in the New Testament. The conversation confronts the reality that division in the church is not just a relational problem, it is a spiritual one. James and Carlos explore how Satan uses disunity to destroy the mission of the church, what it actually looks like to be a divisive person, and how the relationships you run with will shape the direction of your life. They also get practical about dating, marriage, work, and friendship, and what it means to set healthy boundaries without abandoning the people you love.

    What Happens When the Church Goes Silent? | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin, Carlos Fernandez, and Ansley Huckaby unpack Acts 4, where Peter and John face opposition from the Sanhedrin and are commanded to never speak about Jesus again. Instead of caving to pressure and going silent, they prayed for boldness. The conversation explores how we're living in a "negative world" where society views Christianity as a threat, why staying silent is so dangerous, how to see opponents as captured by the enemy rather than as enemies themselves, and what it means to hold both boldness and compassion together like Jesus did.

    What Your 'What Ifs' Are Actually Telling You w/ Annie F. Downs | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    Recorded live at Woven Women Conference, this conversation with author and podcaster Annie F. Downs is one you'll want to share. James Griffin and Ansley Huckaby sit down with Annie to talk about the fears that quietly keep us from the life we actually want — the "what ifs" that show up at 2am, the gossip that's killing community before it even starts, and why worship might be the most underrated weapon you have against anxiety. Annie also pulls back the curtain on her podcast That Sounds Fun and its new 18-month theme Spiritually Stronger, and what it looks like to build real spiritual muscle in a world you cannot control. Whether you're a woman who needed this conversation or a guy who didn't think it was for you, stay for this one.

    The Truth Is Always Going to Hurt | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    When someone shuts down the moment you push back on what they believe, it's not random — there's actually a psychological reason for it. In this episode, James Griffin, Matt Moody, and Carlos Fernandez break down why so many conversations go sideways the moment truth enters the room, what motivated reasoning is and why it makes people combative instead of curious, and how Christians can stop trying to win arguments and start actually winning people.

    Why Can I Believe God Forgives Everyone Except Me? | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    You are Barabbas. In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin, Carlos Fernandez, and Matt Moody walk through Peter's sermon in Acts 2 and 3, unpacking the Barabbas exchange and what it really means that Jesus took the cross reserved for a murderer. The conversation goes deep on penal substitutionary atonement, why we struggle to believe God actually forgives us even when we're confident he forgives others, and the critical difference between Holy Spirit conviction and shame from the enemy. They also tackle why so many believers keep fishing up what God has already cast into the ocean, what repentance actually looks like versus self-improvement, and why the prodigal son story might be the most important thing you read this week.

    God Can Still Heal. So Why Doesn't He? | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin, Jacob Whitehead, and Carlos Fernandez tackle one of the hardest questions in the Christian faith: if God can heal, why doesn't He always do it? Diving into Acts 3 and the story of a man healed, the guys get personal, sharing real stories of praying for miracles that never came, wrestling with God's silence, and what faith actually looks like when the answer is no. This is an honest, vulnerable conversation about unanswered prayer, suffering, and why you can still trust God even when He doesn't do what you asked.

    What a Spirit-Filled Church Actually Looks Like w/Rob Wilton | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin sits down with pastor and church planter Rob Wilton to unpack Acts 2:42–47 and what it truly means to be a spirit-filled church. The conversation goes beyond the surface of a popular passage to explore what genuine devotion to God's Word looks like in a screen-saturated, post-Christian culture. Rob and James discuss the difference between the church gathered and the church scattered, why community is non-negotiable for the Christian life, whether signs and wonders still have a place in the local church today, and how biblical generosity is nothing like socialism. The episode closes with a compelling challenge: what would it look like if the local church pursued a day-by-day movement of salvation — not just a big Sunday moment?

    The UncomfortableTruth About Your Sin(That Nobody Talks About) | The Pursuit with James Griffin

    You killed Jesus. And until you feel the weight of that, you'll never fully understand the gospel. In this episode of The Pursuit, James Griffin, Carlos Fernandez, and Matt Moody unpack Acts 2 and Peter's confronting sermon on the Day of Pentecost where 3,000 people were baptized in a single day. But before the celebration came the conviction: "You crucified and killed him by the hands of lawless men." If you've been defending your sin instead of repenting from it, or if you've never taken that next step of obedience, this episode will cut to the heart just like Peter's message did 2,000 years ago.
