    Zeke!!

    Zeke’s Big Debut In this special episode, we welcome Brandon’s son Zeke to the podcast for his very first appearance!

He shares about his love for sports, his faith, and why video games keep him sharp (and competitive!). You’ll also hear Zeke’s hopes for joining more episodes in the future—covering everything from sports talk to life lessons, fun debates, and maybe even some father-son rivalry. This is just the beginning for Zeke, and we’re excited for you to meet him!

    Grace And The Gridiron: Here We Go - Week 3 Look Back

    Grace and the Grind: Gridiron Edition – Week 3 Look Back Three weeks down, and the Gridiron is already shaking things up. In this episode, we zoom out and look back at the first three weeks as a whole—the surprises, the struggles, and everything in between. We revisit our Grinders of the Year picks from last episode to see who’s living up to the hype and who’s still searching for their footing. Plus, we highlight the studs lighting up leaderboards (Daniel Jones as QB5, James Cook RB2), and the duds dragging teams down (Jamar Chase’s rollercoaster, Brian Thomas Jr’s disappearing act). From Miami’s 0-3 freefall to the Colts’ shocking 3-0 rise — the first 3 weeks gave us plenty to talk about. Smack talk, laughs, and football truths—whether you’re sitting at 3-0 or scrambling at 0-3, this episode has you covered.

    Bob Ross your Heaven

    In this episode, we’ll take up a brush of imagination and paint the heaven promised through Jesus’s saving grace. With gentle strokes, we’ll fill the canvas with every landscape we’ve ever loved—towering mountains, sparkling oceans, wide deserts, and green meadows—transformed into everlasting beauty. We’ll paint away every shadow of physical, mental, and spiritual pain, leaving only peace, joy, and wholeness. Along the way, we’ll add happy little glimpses of heaven we’ve already tasted here on earth: the joy of a meal that warms the soul, music that stirs the heart, laughter shared with friends you could never replace. All of these are brushstrokes pointing to something greater. And on the horizon rises the New Jerusalem, shining with streets of gold and gates of pearl, the eternal city where Jesus has prepared a place for each of us. Imagine a dwelling designed by the Master Artist Himself—perfectly suited for you, filled with love, and forever in His presence. So grab your mental brush, open your heart, and let’s paint heaven together—a masterpiece of grace, joy, and eternal hope. 🎧 Listen now and join the conversation: graceandthegrind.com📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook: @GraceAndTheGrind #PaintingHeaven #BobRoss #GraceAndTheGrind #ChristianPodcast #FaithJourney #BobRossVibes #NewJerusalem #HeavenlyHope #JesusSaves #KingdomOfGod

    The Secret of Life

    The Secret of Life Life doesn’t always get easier—but we can get stronger, softer, and wiser in the process. This episode explores how grace often shows up in unexpected places: in long waits, tough conversations, heartbreaks, and even daily annoyances. Drawing from James 1:2–4, we talk about how trials aren’t roadblocks to joy—they’re the path to it. When we stop resisting the hard stuff and start walking through it with intention, we grow. Not overnight, but slowly and meaningfully. You’ll hear reflections on what it means to find peace in the middle of pressure, and how even the grind of everyday life can be sacred when we shift our perspective. Growth doesn’t require perfection—it just asks that we keep going. Whether you’re in a storm or just tired from the pace of life, this conversation is a reminder: you’re not alone, and grace is already meeting you where you are. We have a website now!
