    Episode 50: Christian Clout Culture (Feat. Will Garinger)

    Episode 50: “Christian Clout Culture (featuring Will Garinger)” is out now on all platforms! Welcome back to the Fiftieth Episode of The Narrow Path Podcast. In this milestone episode, Jake and Justin are joined by Will Garinger, founder of Run With Christ, to confront a growing issue within modern Christianity, Christian Clout Culture. Will shares the origin story of Run With Christ, from its first event in Columbus, Ohio in September 2024 to its expansion across more than 80 cities worldwide, and the heart behind its mission, moving people from isolation to integration through faith, fitness, and genuine community. At the core of it all is a simple but powerful truth, people desire to be known, seen, and loved. Together, the conversation dives into the dangers of trading intimacy with Jesus for influence over people, how platforms often reward charisma over character, and why visibility is not the same as anointing. Jake and Justin unpack the subtle ways faith can become performative when image replaces intimacy, while Will emphasizes the importance of humility, hiddenness, and stewarding influence with the right heart. This episode is a sobering reminder that the goal was never to be seen by many, but to be known by God. Christianity doesn’t need more influencers, it needs more disciples willing to walk the narrow path, take up their cross daily, and live for an audience of One. If you’ve ever wrestled with validation, comparison, or the pressure to be seen, this conversation will challenge you to examine your motives and return to a faith rooted in obedience, humility, and wholehearted devotion to Jesus.

Jake and Justin unpack why the story of Christmas is more than a tradition, why the Savior’s arrival calls us to awe instead of familiarity, and how God steps into the ordinary, messy, and real parts of our lives. They ask listeners to consider: Are we more moved by the season than the Savior? What would it look like to receive Jesus again, not as tradition, but as truth? Together, Through Scripture and reflection, Jake and Justin encourage listeners to see the Christmas story anew, to let God’s presence capture our hearts, and to walk the path of wonder and awe this season.

    Episode 48: He Uses The Broken

    Welcome back to the forty-eighth episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In today’s conversation, Jake and Justin dive into a truth many believers struggle to truly embrace: God doesn’t avoid broken people, He uses them. This episode unpacks why your weakness doesn’t disqualify you, why your failures don’t cancel your calling, and how God’s strength is seen most clearly in the places you’d least expect. Jake and Justin explore the difference between pain and pride, why emotional distance is not spiritual distance, and how brokenness actually draws God near instead of pushing Him away. They walk through biblical stories of ordinary, imperfect people, and how Jesus intentionally chose those the world overlooked. Because God isn’t looking for the impressive, He’s looking for the available. Together, Jake and Justin show how surrender redirects our brokenness into purpose, how God turns messes into messages, and why His calling on your life is irrevocable. Through Scripture and real encouragement, this episode reminds us that God doesn’t call the perfect, He perfects the called. He doesn’t choose the awesome, He chooses the willing. If you’ve ever felt too messy, too inconsistent, or too unqualified for God to use you, this episode is your reminder: you are still chosen, you are still called, and God is not done with you. He uses the broken, on purpose, for a purpose.

    Episode 47: You Just Sinned, Now What?

    Welcome back to the forty-seventh episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In today’s conversation, Jake and Justin dive into a question every believer wrestles with sooner or later: you just sinned… now what? This episode walks through the truth that sin is not your identity, your identity is in Christ and why confession is not just helpful but crucial for healing, restoration, and freedom. We explore the difference between conviction and condemnation, why guilt can be a teacher but shame is never from God, and how the Gospel doesn’t erase our past but redeems it. Jake & Justin unpack the heart behind genuine repentance, not just saying “I’m sorry” but turning toward transformation, and he shares why your failures don’t change the way God views you. God has not left you, abandoned you, or withdrawn His grace; He is near to the brokenhearted, close as a whisper. Together Jake & Justin look at how Jesus meets us in our mess, how His grace empowers us to get back up again, and why our next step after sin is not hiding, it’s coming back to the One who already knows, already sees, and already loves. If you’ve ever wondered how to move forward after you fall, this episode is your reminder that your story isn’t over and God isn’t done.

    Episode 46: Love Without Affirming (Feat. Christian Poncsak)

    Episode 46: “Love Without Affirming” is OUT NOW on all Platforms! Welcome back to the Forty-Sixth episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In this episode, Jake and Justin sit down with Christian Poncsak for a vulnerable conversation about navigating same-sex attraction while following Jesus. Christian shares his journey of wrestling with desires, identity, and faith, and how returning to Scripture and community became the foundation for conviction, transformation, and freedom. They discuss why feelings cannot be the ultimate guide, why discipline matters more than emotion, and why Christ-centered identity is the only stable foundation. We want to be clear: we love every person, including those struggling with same-sex attraction, but love doesn’t mean affirming behavior Scripture calls sin. Romans 1 and 1 Corinthians 6 warn against same-sex sexual behavior without repentance, yet remind us that anyone can be washed, sanctified, and justified in Jesus Christ. Christian shares how God’s kindness, even in letting him reach the end of himself, led him to surrender, encounter God’s presence, and declare, “the only man I’m pursuing now is Jesus.” Anchored in Scripture, compassion, and truth, this episode explores freedom in Christ even amid temptation, finding identity in Jesus rather than sexuality, and loving people well without affirming sin. If you’ve wrestled with same-sex attraction or want to walk faithfully in both grace and truth, this episode is for you.

    Episode 45: Feeling Overwhelmed?

    Welcome back to the Fourty-Fifth episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In this episode, Jake and Justin dive into a topic everyone faces at some point: feeling overwhelmed — and why it’s completely normal, especially in busy seasons. They discuss how overwhelm often signals the need to pause, retreat, and prioritize time with God. Before going out to do things in Jesus’ name, we must first sit at His feet and stay connected to the Vine, because apart from Him, we can do absolutely nothing. Saying no, resting, and finding balance isn’t selfish — it’s essential to avoid burnout and care for others well. Jake and Justin also explore why true strength isn’t self-reliance, how acknowledging our limits is actually wisdom, and why self-love in the form of rest is selfless. By prioritizing time with Jesus first, listeners can refill their cups, walk in clarity, and serve faithfully without running dry. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or on the verge of burnout, this episode is for you.

    Episode 44: Creating For The Creator (Feat. Sean Moreno)

    Welcome back to the Forty-Fourth Episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In this episode, Jake and Justin sit down with creative storyteller Sean Moreno to unpack one of the biggest themes in the Christian creative world today: what it truly means to create for the Creator. Sean shares the heart behind Wonderfully Made and how his content reminds people of the worth, identity, and dignity God placed in them. From street interviews to storytelling, he talks about moments where God used simple creativity to spark deep conversations and eternal impact. Together, they explore the idea that creativity was never meant to rival God but to reflect Him. Being made in His image means the creativity inside us isn’t random or accidental, It’s inherited. Jake, Justin and Sean dive reveal a key truth: what we create matters, but why we create matters even more. They discuss the weight of influence, the temptation to chase approval, & how to define success. If you’re a creator, storyteller, or anyone wrestling with calling and motive, this conversation will remind you that your gift was entrusted to you for a reason: to reflect the One who gave it.

    Episode 43: Accountability Vs Judgement

    Welcome back to the Forty-Third Episode of The Narrow Path Podcast! In this episode, Jake and Justin dive into one of the most misunderstood topics in the Church: the difference between accountability and judgment. Judgment points a finger, but accountability extends a hand. True biblical accountability isn’t about tearing someone down; it’s about calling them up. They also unpack the difference between conviction and condemnation, because assigning fault to ourselves without bringing it to Jesus only leads to shame and destruction. Conviction, on the other hand, draws us closer to Him and produces growth. Feedback, though painful, is one of God’s greatest tools for transformation. When those who love us speak truth, we can either humble ourselves and grow, or harden our hearts and stay the same. The goal of this episode is simple: to encourage you to welcome feedback from those who love you enough to tell you the truth, because wisdom doesn’t just celebrate encouragement, it leans into correction.
