What if the way you see a stranger in the grocery store says more about the condition of your heart than anything you'd admit out loud? In this episode of the 100xLife Podcast, Rob Dayton sits down with Andrew Steier, founder of Always Going, an evangelism ministry built around one simple but radical idea: you don't have to bring a pulpit into everyday life to be a light in it. Andrew calls it overflow evangelism, the practice of loving God so fully that love naturally spills out into ordinary moments, whether that's the grocery store, the mall, or a Sunday morning at church. Rob and Andrew dig into why so many Christians live like they're avoiding a cosmic kill joy rather than walking in the freedom Jesus actually offers. They talk about calibration, the daily practice of returning to God's truth instead of drifting into old patterns, and why self-denial, done rightly, doesn't cost us anything. It fills us. This conversation also gets personal. Rob opens up about his own struggle to find joy in church, and Andrew walks him through a reframe that applies far beyond Sunday mornings: church isn't a place to be served. It's a place to practice. If you've ever caught yourself judging a stranger, feeling drained by community instead of filled by it, or wondering how to actually live out your faith in the mundane moments of an ordinary day, this episode offers a practical, hopeful way forward.
