    Are you asking yourself the questions that matter? Episode 282

    This week, the guys welcome back Dr. John Trent for Part 2 of their conversation, diving deeper into his book and the practical importance of taking an honest look at our own hearts, motives, and choices. Let’s be honest—most of us would rather avoid the hard questions. But there is incredible value in slowing down and examining who we are, why we do what we do, and how our choices are impacting the people closest to us. When we’re willing to look inward, God can use what He reveals to help us become better husbands, fathers, leaders, and men who make a lasting impact. The goal isn't just to become better for today. It's to build a Christ-centered legacy that impacts those around us for generations to come.

    The importance of the little things - Episode 281

    What if you feel like you don’t know enough about the Bible to really make a difference? In this episode, the guys welcome back Dr. John Trent to talk about the incredible impact one person can have on the lives of others—even when they may feel like they don’t have much to offer. John shares the powerful story of one man who made a difference in his life and the lives of his friends. It’s a reminder that God doesn’t need us to know everything. He simply asks us to trust Him with what we do know and be willing to use it. You may never know how much your small acts of faith, encouragement, or obedience can impact someone else. Don’t underestimate the little things. God can use them for something much bigger than you realize.

    What if everything you've chased still leaves you empty? Best of Series Episode 244 Geoff Barker

    As part of our Best of the Known Legacy Podcast series, we're revisiting one of our most fascinating conversations—Episode 244 with Geoff Barker. Geoff spent years at the top of his profession, training world-class athletes, celebrities, and elite performers. He even found himself in the spotlight as one of Australia's iconic Gladiators. From the outside, he appeared to have everything—success, recognition, and influence. But deep inside, he knew something was still missing. In this powerful episode, Geoff shares the incredible journey that led him to walk away from everything he had built and spend seven years searching for the truth. His story is one of surrender, transformation, and discovering that the life we chase can never compare to the life God has planned for us. If you've ever wondered whether there's more to life than success, achievement, or the next accomplishment, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

    Best of KL Podcast: What to Do When the Church Lets You Down: Interview with Matt Hammitt

    Few things cut as deeply as being hurt by the very people who are supposed to point you to Jesus. Maybe you've been betrayed, judged, overlooked, or wounded by someone in the church. If so, you're not alone—and you don't have to stay stuck in that pain. As part of our Best of the Known Legacy Podcast series, we're revisiting one of our most impactful conversations with Matt Hammitt as he shares the heart behind his powerful song, "Church Hurt." Matt opens up about the inspiration behind the song, why church hurt is so devastating, and how we can begin the difficult journey toward healing. Together, we talk about forgiveness, restoration, and why walking away from Christian community isn't God's desire for those who've been wounded. Whether you've experienced church hurt yourself or know someone who has, this conversation offers biblical wisdom, practical encouragement, and a reminder that while people may fail us, Jesus never will. Healing is possible. Community is still worth pursuing.

    What Would Jesus Do in Today's Culture?

    How do you follow Jesus when the culture celebrates what God's Word calls sin? It's one of the biggest questions Christians are facing today. This week on the Known Legacy Podcast, Bill and Travis unpack a post Travis shared that sparked an important conversation about sin, truth, grace, and what it means to faithfully follow Christ in today's culture. Together they discuss: How followers of Jesus should view sin Why compromising God's truth is never the answer How to let Scripture—not culture—be your ultimate authority How Jesus responded to people caught in sin with both truth and compassion How to stand firm in your faith without losing your love for people If you've ever felt unsure of how to respond to the issues our culture is facing—or how to speak the truth with both conviction and grace—this episode is for you.
