    Mission Trip Recap, 2025

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Fresh Wave Podcast, Maddy and Johnny are joined by Oliver and Tim to share an inside look at their recent youth mission trip to Asheville, North Carolina. From pulling logs out of rivers and serving meals to veterans, to worship nights and even a stop at Buc-ee’s, the team reflects on a week filled with hard work, laughter, and powerful encounters with God. Together, they unpack how serving impacted the community, deepened their own faith, and reminded them that our mission doesn’t end when the trip is over, it continues right where we live.

  2. I Just Became a Christian... Now What?

    I Just Became a Christian... Now What?

    Send us Fan Mail The Fresh Wave Podcast returns, and we’re asking an important question: what now? What do you actually do after saying yes to Jesus? New believer Luke Rowell shares his story of coming to faith just weeks ago—what sparked the change, what surprised him, and how he’s staying rooted when the initial excitement fades. We also hear from Oliver, Maddy, and Johnny about the real challenges of following Jesus in high school and beyond, and what it looks like to grow, even when it’s not easy. We talk about reading the Bible when you don’t know where to start, why community matters more than you think, and how chasing perfection can actually distract you from chasing Jesus. From cutting out old habits to building new rhythms, this is a powerful conversation for anyone navigating life as a new (or renewed) follower of Christ. Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for years or you’re just starting out, this episode will encourage you to stay grounded, stay curious, and stay close to Him.

    Splash Into Summer

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Fresh Wave Podcast, we’re diving into what it looks like to actually grow in your faith when school’s out, schedules slow down, and excuses run out. Whether you’re heading into senior year, working, serving at VBS, or just sleeping in, summer brings a chance to hit reset. We talk about how to “take hold of eternal life” (1 Timothy 6), explore what might really be getting in the way of our relationship with God, and share practical ways to connect with Him this season, even when it’s hard or awkward. If you’ve ever felt like your faith has plateaued or your time with God gets sidelined, this one’s for you. Let’s make this summer count: spiritually, personally, and maybe with a few wiffle ball games in between.

  4. The Problem with Perfection

    The Problem with Perfection

    Send us Fan Mail What is perfection, really? And why do so many of us chase it—especially when it leaves us anxious, exhausted, or feeling like we’ll never measure up? In this honest and heartfelt conversation, the Fresh Wave crew welcomes returning guest Sabrina and newcomer Natalie to talk all things perfectionism . From pressure in friendships and school to striving in our faith, we explore where this desire to “be enough” comes from—and why it so often leaves us empty.  Is it pride? Fear? People-pleasing?  What if the pursuit of perfection actually keeps us from surrendering to God? And what does Jesus say about all this? This episode goes deep—from Genesis to Ephesians to James—with encouragement for anyone struggling to feel worthy or whole. You’ll hear personal stories, scripture reflections, some big “aha” moments, and the beautiful reminder that... You don’t have to be enough. Jesus already is. Hit that like button, subscribe for more youth-led truth, and don’t forget: you are free to follow Jesus imperfectly. He gives more grace.
