    The Truth About Christian Content at Amazon Prime | S4E36 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    What really happens to Christian content inside one of the largest streaming platforms in the world?In this episode of Beyond the Letter, Adam sits down with longtime friend Jimmy, a former attorney and former Head of Global Policy for Amazon Prime Video, where his team helped oversee content ratings, descriptors, and policies governing what could—and could not—appear across the platform.Jimmy shares what it was like navigating faith inside corporate entertainment, why certain policies had to be rewritten to create a more consistent standard, and how Amazon Prime eventually began making a major investment in faith-based content. Adam and Jimmy also unpack The Chosen, House of David, the controversy surrounding creative liberties in biblical storytelling, and where the line should be drawn between artistic interpretation and actually contradicting Scripture.Later, Jimmy shares why he walked away from major corporate opportunities—including interview processes with companies such as OpenAI, Roblox, and TikTok—to pursue full-time ministry. The conversation turns toward career success, money, calling, and a lesson every believer needs to hear: praying for an opportunity does not replace becoming competent enough to handle it.From Christian influence in Hollywood to AI, leadership, career advancement, and following God when success is pulling you in another direction, this episode is a rare look behind the curtain of both big tech and faith.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Jimmy Mettias https://www.instagram.com/thepharaoh24/--Get the Acts Study Guide at adammesa.org--Join our study on the book of Acts on our Bible Club Podcast!https://www.youtube.com/@bibleclubpodcast--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    What Makes a Man a Great Husband? | S3E35 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    What do happily married women say their husbands are doing differently?In this episode of Beyond I Do, Adam and Ashlee react to answers from married women about the qualities that make their husbands stand out—from apologizing when they’re wrong and showing patience, to communicating with kindness, providing for the family, and making their marriage a real priority.The conversation also gets into what healthy support actually looks like in marriage and parenting. Adam and Ashlee talk about how different couples divide responsibilities, why helping your spouse doesn’t always look the same in every marriage, and the importance of finding a rhythm that genuinely works for both people instead of comparing your relationship to someone else’s.They also unpack trust, social media boundaries, friendship influences, stay-at-home parenting, and what it really means for a husband to make his family a priority. At the center of it all is a simple question: what does it actually look like to be a great spouse over the long haul?----Get the Acts Study Guide at adammesa.org----Join our study on the book of Acts on our Bible Club Podcast!https://www.youtube.com/@bibleclubpodcast----Have a question about relationships?

Can a husband truly lead if he remains passive? And are we expecting our spouses to change while refusing to examine our own selfishness?With their usual humor, banter, and honesty, Adam and Ashlee talk about communication, leadership, impossible expectations, deciding what to eat for dinner, and why a healthy marriage requires both people to move beyond simply identifying what is wrong.Beyond I Do is officially back—and this is only the beginning of what is coming next.----Have a question about relationships?

    Ashlee Gets Her Revenge… Adam vs. The Curb | S3E33 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    In today’s episode, Adam and Ashlee keep it light and hilarious as they wrap up the final Beyond I Do before the summer break. They share why the podcast is taking a short pause (hint: a big tech refresh is coming, including a 4K upgrade), and they talk about how routine-loving listeners might feel about it. Then Andy hits them with a surprise clip that instantly turns into one of the funniest moments of the season: Adam’s ongoing battle with curbs… and the now-legendary golf cart incident.They also end the episode with some real-life marriage talk in the middle of the laughs: Ashlee admits she’s been feeling a little more “needy” lately (her words), and Adam gives a practical take on why that shift might be happening. From texting during Bible Club to sharing drinks (and the boys’ backwash chaos), it’s one of those episodes that feels exactly like hanging out with them in real life.--Have a question about relationships?

    Do You Really Want to Be Healed? | S4E33 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    This week on Beyond the Letter, Adam and Sammy react to a clip of Theo Von reading John 5 and getting hit with one haunting question: “Do you want to be healed?” They unpack how it’s possible to want change… but still cling to the patterns that keep us stuck.They also break down what Jesus’ command to “pick up your mat and walk” actually costs—identity, comfort, excuses, and sometimes even the “benefits” we’ve learned to live off of. If you’ve ever felt like healing sounds good in theory, but terrifying in practice, this conversation will challenge you in the best way.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    Capture the Moment (Before You Miss It) | S3E32 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

    Ever look back and realize you don’t have enough videos of the people you love? In this episode, Adam and Ashlee get real (and hilarious) about “capturing the moment,” why Ashlee wishes Adam recorded more of her day-to-day life, and how quickly a simple ask can turn into a full-on marriage debate.Along the way, they call out excuses, talk about why small moments matter more than perfectly edited ones, and challenge couples to take ownership of what they say they value—because one day, you’ll wish you had more than just memories. Plus: Andy catches strays for finally going public with his girlfriend (and gets put on the spot to post the video).--Have a question about relationships?

    Critique Culture Is Killing the Church | S4E32 BEYOND THE LETTER PODCAST

    In this episode, Adam and Allan talk about a trend that’s gotten louder online: people building platforms by clipping sermons, stitching content, and “calling out” other leaders for engagement. They unpack the difference between thoughtful biblical critique and straight-up clout-chasing — the kind that tears people down, fuels outrage, and makes money off someone else’s ministry.They also challenge believers to stop only complaining about what’s wrong on social media and start becoming part of the solution. If TikTok is where the next generation is living, learning, and forming opinions about faith, then mature, grounded voices need to show up there with clarity, humility, and courage — not just reactions.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Allan Walters https://www.instagram.com/alllanwalters/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

    This week is a special crossover drop for Mother’s Day—part Beyond the Letter, part Beyond I Do—but fully focused on honoring the women who carry so much.Adam, Ashlee, Nathan, and Sanaz talk through what Mother’s Day should look like (and why so many people feel pressure, disappointment, or weird expectations around it). They unpack how to actually build a culture of appreciation in your home—so moms aren’t only celebrated one day a year—and why teaching your kids honor now becomes a gift to their future marriage later.They also get real about the “mom, mom, mom” season, kids sleeping in the bed, Teacher Appreciation Week chaos, and what it looks like to celebrate mothers without letting consumerism define the day. Plus—practical wisdom for single moms raising sons (and daughters) with healthy support, boundaries, and strong examples.--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Ashlee Mesa https://www.instagram.com/ashleemesa/Nathan Mesa https://www.instagram.com/nathanjmesa/Sanaz Mesa https://www.instagram.com/sanazmesa/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?
