    Can I Be Angry with God and Still Have Faith? | In The Trenches Ep. 02

    In Episode 2 of In The Trenches, Chris Zauner and Casey Olsen wrestle with one of the most honest questions a follower of Jesus can ask. What do we do with anger, disappointment, confusion, and frustration toward God when life doesn’t make sense? We look at the way Scripture makes room for honest emotion without letting anger become the final word. From the Psalms to Job, we talk about lament, humility, wise counsel, and the difference between bringing our anger to God and allowing anger to distort our view of Him. We also revisit last week’s conversation about keeping Jesus at the center of life and talk about how priorities shift during busy seasons. If you’ve ever wondered whether your frustration with God means your faith is failing, this conversation is for you. Have a question you want us to wrestle with?

    What Does It Mean to “Do Everything Unto the Lord”? | In The Trenches Ep. 01

    Welcome to the first episode of In The Trenches! Following Jesus happens in the realities of everyday life, and that’s what this podcast is all about. Chris Zauner and Casey Olsen introduce In The Trenches, share a little of the story behind the name, and talk about why they want to create a space for honest conversations about Christian living, discipleship, and real life. Then we get into our first listener question: What are some practical ways we can “do everything unto the Lord”? What kind of mindset does that require? Using Colossians 3:23–24 as our starting point, we talk about what it means to honor Jesus in every area of life, resisting the temptation to compartmentalize our faith, recognizing the difference between good things and the things God has actually called us to, and learning to rely on the power of the Holy Spirit as we try to live faithfully.
