    Episode 29: The Daily Reminder: Moments of Radical Surrender

    What happens when you finally stop running and open the door? In this special highlights episode, we journey back through some of the most profound and transformative moments from The Knock. While every guest comes from a different walk of life—from the high-stakes world of business to the bright lights of The Voice—they all reached a singular "fork in the road" where their own strength was no longer enough. We are revisiting these testimonies not just to look at the past, but to provide a daily reminder for our own walk in faith. Join us as we reflect on: Chelsea Thomas on the beauty of "palms up" living and the radical obedience required to follow God into the unknown. Maria Granados on how to find an unshakeable identity when sitting in the "classroom of suffering." Matt Granados on the miraculous "breath of life" and the moment his illusion of control was shattered. Tess Boyer Schenck on the radical freedom found in the Father's love when we finally drop the "performance." Pastor Mark Griffith on the power of finding true leadership through "insignificance" and the call to serve others. These stories serve as a testament to what God has done and a challenge for what He is asking of us today. Whether you are currently "white-knuckling" your circumstances or looking for the strength to take the next step, let these moments remind you: God is always knocking. The question is, will you answer?   Connect with us:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knockpodcast/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61...

Whether you are wrestling with doubt or trying to simplify your God-given purpose, this Q&A is a guide for anyone looking to stay intentional while answering the "knock."

    Episode 27: YOKED: Why Physical Strength Without Spiritual Depth Leaves Men Empty with Justin Northern

    What happens when a man has all the physical discipline in the world but lacks a spiritual foundation? In this episode of The Knock Podcast, Bobby sits down with the show's first-ever repeat guest, Justin Northern, to discuss the explosive growth of YOKED—a movement designed to pull men out of isolation and into intentional leadership. Justin explores the "softening" of the modern church and why men are often left feeling unchallenged. He breaks down the crucial difference between sacrifice (a concept every gym-goer understands) and surrender (the spiritual act of giving control to Christ). Using the powerful metaphor of the "Pace Car," Justin explains why a father's spiritual speed determines the trajectory of his entire household. From vulnerable stories of leading his family with humility to the "99 for the One" mentality of his ministry, Justin issues a call to arms for men to stop being "lone wolves." Whether you are a fitness enthusiast or someone looking for deeper purpose, this conversation is a blueprint for building a life that is truly "Yoked" to the Father. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in. Because God is always knocking.  The question is: will you answer?

    Episode 26:Finding Focus in the Fog: A Story of Alzheimer's, Grief, and God's Sovereignty

    In this episode of The Knock Podcast, Bobby and Gerrad sit down with Danielle Fogarty, a professional wedding photographer who spent years chasing "gold stars" and professional validation. Danielle opens up about the exhaustion of the "hustle"—shooting 45 weddings a year while maintaining a "picture-perfect" exterior—and how a season of profound "stillness" through motherhood and grief finally brought her to a place of true surrender. The conversation centers on the defining "valley" of her life: her father's battle with Alzheimer's and the miraculous ways God showed up in the midst of the fog. The conversation goes deeper into what God is currently chiseling away in Danielle—moving her from a performance-based identity to a secure foundation as a daughter of God. Danielle shares the incredible story of her father's baptism, a "full-circle" moment where, despite his fading memory, he recognized the Living Water. She reflects on her "1% surrender" in a hospital chapel and why she now views her father's passing not as a tragedy, but as a "transition to glory" and a spiritual gift that saved her own life. Bobby, Gerrad, and Danielle finish by discussing the power of breaking generational cycles and why answering the "knock" often requires us to let go of the camera and simply be still in the presence of the Father.

    Episode 25:Riding the Wake of Grace: Success Off the Water

    In this episode of The Knock Podcast, Bobby and Gerrad sit down with four-time world champion wakeboarder Kirby Liesmann for a powerful conversation about what happens when the pursuit of worldly excellence meets the radical grace of God. Kirby opens up about the "crash and burn" moments of his professional career—navigating the performance anxiety he called "the cook" and the vanity of the pro circuit—and how answering "the knock" led him to a life of total surrender. He shares the incredible testimony of his ACL being miraculously healed through prayer and the authority of the believer, proving that God's power is as real on the water as it is in the prayer room.   The conversation goes deeper into what God is currently chiseling away in Kirby—shifting his identity from "world-class athlete" to "son" and learning to lead with humility instead of self-reliance. Kirby reflects on how the "grind" of entrepreneurship and professional sports can quietly feed pride, and why he is now embracing a season of intentional rest and stillness. He also shares the beautiful story of how God orchestrated his relationship with his wife, Sydney, after he committed to biblical standards and moral surrender. Bobby, Gerrad, and Kirby finish by discussing the importance of staying focused on prayer and obedience, reminding us that true victory isn't found on a podium, but in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

    Episode 24: Behind the Mic — What God's Revealing Through This Podcast

    In this episode of The Knock Podcast, Bobby and Gerrad sit down for a real, unfiltered conversation after hearing nearly 20 testimonies. They talk through the common threads they keep seeing—how so many stories begin with control, collapse into anguish, and ultimately lead to the same turning point: a desperate need for the presence of the Holy Spirit. As they reflect, they also unpack why testimonies don't just impact the audience—they've become a weekly reminder of where God pulled them from, and why gratitude matters without living stuck in the past. The conversation goes deeper into what God is currently chiseling away in them—identity, pride, emotional reactions, and the struggle to lead with humility instead of self-reliance. They also reflect on how athletics can build confidence while quietly feeding pride, and why their "crash and burn" seasons were necessary to redirect their lives toward God's calling. Bobby and Gerrad finish by sharing what they see ahead for The Knock—more conversations like this, bringing their wives into future episodes, and staying focused on prayer and obedience as the podcast continues to reach people in ways they may never fully see. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in.  Because God is always knocking. The question is: will you answer?

    Episode 23: Grace After the Fall with Darryl Brown

    In this episode of The Knock Podcast, hosts Bobby and Gerrad sit down with their second out-of-state guest, Darryl Brown, joining from California. Darryl shares how his faith foundation began with a powerful example in his grandfather—a longtime pastor whose greatest desire was that his family would know Jesus. But like many, Darryl had to move from inherited faith to a personal relationship with Christ, and his path took him through identity struggles, construction culture, and a painful descent into opioid addiction that grew from prescriptions into dependency. Darryl opens up about multiple rehab attempts, the moment God met him in a desert facility during withdrawal, and how that encounter became an "unshakable faith" turning point—while also being honest about relapse after baptism and what it taught him about surrender, grace, and changed desires. Now walking in freedom with years of sobriety, Darryl's story is a reminder that God can turn the darkest detours into purpose, and that no one is too far gone to be pulled back under His wing. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in.  Because God is always knocking. The question is: will you answer?

    Episode 22: Keeping Christ at the Center of Christmas

    Bobby and Gerrad come together for the first annual Christmas episode of The Knock Podcast—no guest this time, just the two brothers sharing a fun, honest conversation about the season. They kick things off with classic Christmas debates (real vs. fake trees, worst gifts ever, favorite songs), a few laughs, and real-life moments from what the holidays look like in their homes right now. At the heart of the episode, Bobby and Gerrad shift the focus to what truly matters—keeping Christ at the center of Christmas in a culture that often drifts toward everything else. They share practical ways they're building faith-centered traditions with their families, discuss navigating personal convictions without division, and reflect on the humility woven throughout the Christmas story, reminding listeners that Christmas is ultimately about celebrating the birth of Jesus with gratitude, servant-heartedness, and obedience. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in.  Because God is always knocking. The question is: will you answer?
