    What is the Bible?

    In this episode of Where Your Feet Are, Mitch joins Adam to tackle a huge question in a really accessible way: What is the Bible? If you’re new to faith, curious about Jesus, or you’ve grown up around church but never really understood how the Bible works, this one’s for you. Mitch breaks the Bible down like a library, not just one book—walking through the different types of writings in the Old and New Testaments (law, history, poetry, prophets, Gospels, letters, and Revelation) and why that matters for how we read it today. You’ll hear about: Why there are 66 books and how they fit togetherWhat genres are in the Bible and how that shapes what you’re readingHow chapters and verses got there (and why they can sometimes get in the way)How the early church decided which books made it into the BibleWhat translations are, why they sound different, and how to pick oneThe deeper “why” behind the Bible: not just information, but knowing JesusMitch closes by unpacking what it means to actually follow Jesus through Scripture—moving from just reading words to sitting at His feet, like Mary did, and letting truth lead you into real freedom. If you’ve ever thought, “The Bible seems confusing, complicated, or outdated,” this episode will give you a clear, practical starting point—without pressure, without perfect answers, and always right where your feet are.

    Give Him the Keys Part 2

    What do you do when you’ve handed God the keys to your life…and everything still falls apart? In this deeply honest episode, Adam shares the most painful part of his story: losing his first son, AJ, and wrestling with whether he could really trust God after that. From screaming at God in the middle of a small Florida neighborhood to hearing the quiet whisper, “I’m going to give you three,” Adam walks through how grief, anger, and confusion became the ground where trust and surrender were rebuilt. You’ll hear about: Losing a child and choosing not to take the “keys” back from GodHow God unexpectedly built a family out of tragedyThe simple, scared prayers God still chose to answerExperiencing God as Adonai (Lord), Jehovah (relational God), and Elohim (all-powerful) in real life, not just in theoryWhy being connected to a local church and community is critical when life falls apartWhat it practically looks like to say, “Not my will, but Yours,” one step at a timeIf you’re wondering whether God is really good, really in control, or really worth trusting after what you’ve been through, this episode is for you. No fake answers. No pressure to pretend you’re okay. Just a real story of pain, surrender, and the unexpected ways God shows up when you let Him drive. Listen in and consider: will you give Him the keys—even here, even now, right where your feet are?

    Give Him the Keys Part 1

    What does it actually mean to “give God control” of your life—and why is it so hard to do? In this episode of Where Your Feet Are, Adam talks honestly about one of the biggest tensions in following Jesus: we love the idea of a powerful, loving “Father God,” but we struggle when He asks to be Lord—the actual owner and driver of our lives. Using the stories of: Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane (“Not my will, but yours be done”), andPeter stepping out of the boat to walk on water,Adam unpacks what it looks like to hand God the keys, not just call Him your co‑pilot. You’ll hear about: Why losing control is at the heart of every powerful story (and your faith one too)How Jesus Himself wrestled with fear, dread, and obedience the night before the crossThe difference between knowing God as “Daddy” (Abba) and trusting Him as Lord and Owner (Adonai)A simple challenge: one area of your life this week where you can stop co‑piloting and let God driveIf you’re new to faith, full of questions, or not sure you’re ready to trust God with everything, this conversation is for you. No perfect answers, no pressure to fake it—just real talk about control, fear, and steady steps of trust, right where your feet are today. Perfect for those who are: Curious about JesusWrestling with decisions, anxiety, or “what’s next?”Wanting a faith that’s real, not just religious talkStay tuned for Part 2, where Adam shares a raw personal story of when he had to give God the keys in a really hard situation.

    No Easy Way Out

    In this episode of Where Your Feet Are, Rob gets real about what following Jesus actually looks like when life is hard. Using an iconic scene from Rocky IV (yes, including the “No Easy Way Out” montage), he unpacks a big truth: choosing Jesus isn’t choosing the easy way out—it’s choosing the only real way through.

Rob talks honestly about: Why following Jesus doesn’t make your problems magically disappearThe difference between being saved from sin and still struggling in a broken worldHow God can redeem pain, even when He didn’t cause itThe story of Joseph and what it teaches us about betrayal, suffering, and purposeWhy perseverance matters—and how God uses your hardest seasons to grow youYou’ll walk away reminded that there may be no easy way out, but there is a way through: a real, living relationship with Jesus.

    Do You Know Who You Are?

    In this episode of Where Your Feet Are, Rob tackles one of the biggest questions we all wrestle with: Who am I, really? Using Jeremiah 1:5, Rob breaks down three powerful truths about your identity: You are known – Before anyone followed you, noticed you, or misunderstood you, God already fully knew you—your questions, your doubts, your fears, and your potential.You are formed – You’re not random or accidental. God personally designed your personality, passions, and wiring. Salvation doesn’t create your purpose; it reveals it.You are set apart – Being a Christian isn’t about blending in; it’s about belonging to God first. You’re called to live differently in your school, friend group, team, and online spaces—and you’re not doing it alone. God is with you.Whether you’re a teen just starting to explore faith, a college student wrestling with purpose, or a young adult trying to figure out your next step, this conversation will help you see your life as intentional, valuable, and deeply seen by God. If you’ve ever thought: “I’m too young.”“I don’t know enough about the Bible.”“I don’t fit the ‘Christian mold.’”“Do I even matter?”…this episode is for you. Listen in and ask yourself: What would change this week if I really believed I am known, formed, and set apart by God?

    The Necessary Change

    Falling in love quietly rewires your life. So what happens when you start falling in love with Jesus? In this episode of *Where Your Feet Are*, Adam unpacks one simple but huge idea:   **Following and loving Jesus naturally changes how you live.** Not because you’re trying to earn anything, but because real love always leads to real change. Using hilarious (and kind of embarrassing) stories about his messy car, dirty apartment, and early days of dating his now-wife, Adam shows how love slowly shifts your priorities—who you hang with, how you spend your time, and what you care about most. Then he connects it to what happens when you actually start walking with Jesus in real life. We’ll talk about: - Why loving Jesus isn’t just a “one-time prayer” but a daily “yes” - How change can be slow, awkward, and still totally real - What 2 Corinthians 5:17 really means for your identity and habits - Practical, small ways you might already be changing and not even notice - How to take one simple next step with Jesus this week—right where your feet are If you’re curious about faith, frustrated with fake religion, or just wondering, “If I follow Jesus, do I have to become a different person?”—this episode is for you. No perfect answers. No pressure to pretend. Just honest stories, real questions, and steady steps with Jesus, right where you are.

    Episode One: The Walk that Changed Everything

    In this powerful exploration of Mark chapter 5, we dive deep into the intertwined stories of Jairus and the woman with the issue of blood. These narratives beautifully illustrate how Jesus meets us in our desperation and transforms our lives. We see that faith often emerges at the end of human limitations, when we've exhausted all other options. The story challenges us to push through our fears and doubts, just as Jairus did when faced with his daughter's illness, and the woman did when she reached out to touch Jesus' garment. Both encountered unexpected delays and setbacks, yet Jesus remained constant, showing us that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. This message encourages us to trust in God's timing and purpose, even when our journey doesn't unfold as we expect. It reminds us that walking with Jesus isn't just about reaching our destination, but about the transformative lessons we learn along the way.
