    Poop Pills, Fish Homicide, and The Problem With Trying to Be Perfect | Ep. 94 | Wyatt Matters

    This week’s show starts with a sleep remedy nobody asked for: scientists are testing capsules made from donated fecal material as a treatment for chronic insomnia. Yes, poop pills. And yes, Steve and the crew have questions. Then, a 76-year-old man loses sleep over the noise coming from his neighbor’s koi pond. The fish themselves are silent, but his battle with the pond takes a turn nobody saw coming and somehow ends with what Steve calls “fish homicide.” From there, Steve gets personal about his own struggle with perfectionism. What looks like a commitment to excellence can become something much less healthy when fear of failure, control, and the need to get everything exactly right take over. The conversation turns to faith and a question many people wrestle with: What if I’m never good enough? The crew explores why following Jesus was never supposed to mean achieving perfection, and why the Christian life begins by admitting that we can’t fix ourselves.   🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: Todd Bussey – https://www.facebook.com/todd.bussey.71/ Bruce Templeton – https://www.instagram.com/coltoncross Garrett Shelp – https://www.facebook.com/garrettshelp 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance for Struggling Borrowershttps://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to:https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Revenge Gone Wrong, When Payback Backfires, and Why Forgiveness Sets You Free | Ep. 93 | Wyatt Matters

    One act of revenge targets the wrong person. Another attempt to settle the score ends in a way nobody saw coming. These unbelievable stories reveal how anger has a way of hurting the person who refuses to let it go. Then Steve Wyatt tackles one of Jesus' most difficult teachings: forgiveness. Why is it so hard to forgive someone who doesn't deserve it, and why does refusing to forgive end up costing us far more than the person who hurt us? 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: John Samples – https://www.jsam.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/jsamtv Todd Bussey – https://www.facebook.com/todd.bussey.71/ Kimberlee Herman – https://www.promisehillpodcast.com/ & https://www.redeemedhopeaz.com/ 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Internet Riches, a $50 Million Surprise, and The Secret to Real Contentment | Ep. 92 | Wyatt Matters

    What happens when someone earns a fortune online? And what would you do if you suddenly inherited $50 million? This episode looks at two very different money stories that reveal the same uncomfortable truth: more money doesn't automatically bring more peace. Steve Wyatt then turns to Scripture to unpack why so many people spend their lives chasing financial security, only to discover that contentment is learned, not earned. Solomon, Paul, and Jesus each point toward a richer life that money can never buy. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: John Samples – https://www.jsam.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/jsamtv Todd Bussey – https://www.facebook.com/todd.bussey.71/ Kimberlee Herman – https://www.promisehillpodcast.com/ & https://www.redeemedhopeaz.com/   👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Big Gulps, Bigger Houses, and Why Chasing Happiness Never Works | Ep. 91 | Wyatt Matters

    This week starts with one of the funniest takeaways from the World Cup as thousands of European visitors discover America for the first time. They fall in love with free refills, giant portions, Costco samples, and air conditioning—only to discover that too much of a good thing comes with heartburn, summer colds, and a few extra pounds. Then the crew tackles a story about a wealthy couple living in a 9,000-square-foot mansion who become convinced that adding one more luxury room will finally make them happy. Instead, the project turns into an expensive nightmare that damages both their home and their peace of mind. The conversation leads to one of the oldest lessons in Scripture. King Solomon had unlimited money, unlimited pleasure, unlimited success, and unlimited opportunities to chase happiness. After trying it all, he reached one unforgettable conclusion: nothing under the sun could satisfy the human heart apart from God. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: Bruce Templeton – https://www.instagram.com/coltoncross Maribeth Dodd – https://www.maribethdodd.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/@TheHealthyHustlePodcast Kimberlee Herman – https://www.promisehillpodcast.com/ & https://www.redeemedhopeaz.com/ 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Sophie Cunningham, Parenting Gone Wrong, and The Cost of Loving Someone | Ep. 90 | Wyatt Matters

    This week begins with one of the most talked-about moments in sports. After Caitlin Clark takes another hard hit, teammate Sophie Cunningham steps in to defend her… and instantly becomes a viral sensation. Was it simply retaliation, or was it something much deeper? Then the conversation turns to a major parenting study revealing the newest ways parents unintentionally hold their kids back. From over-functioning parents to the pressure to remove every obstacle, the cast explores the difference between protecting children and preparing them for life. The episode ends with one of Jesus' most powerful statements about love: "Greater love has no one than this..." Real love isn't always comfortable. Sometimes it requires courage. Sometimes it carries a cost. And sometimes the greatest act of love is choosing someone else's good over your own. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: Bruce Templeton – https://www.instagram.com/coltoncross Maribeth Dodd – https://www.maribethdodd.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/@TheHealthyHustlePodcast Kimberlee Herman – https://www.promisehillpodcast.com/ & https://www.redeemedhopeaz.com/ 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ — join the newsletter, learn about the cast, and find faith-based resources that go deeper.

    A Man Marries His Tractor, AI Romance, and The Love We've Been Looking For | Ep. 89 | Wyatt Matters

    A farmer marries his tractor. A woman marries the Eiffel Tower. Another builds an AI boyfriend and calls it true love. These bizarre headlines are hilarious… but they reveal something surprisingly serious about the human heart. Why are so many people looking for love in places that can never love them back? Steve Wyatt explores why real love isn't built on feelings or constant affirmation, but on sacrifice, commitment, and choosing another person's good above your own. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: John Samples – https://www.jsam.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/jsamtv Bruce Templeton – https://www.instagram.com/coltoncross Garrett Shelp – https://www.facebook.com/garrettshelp 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Pizza Refunds, The Knicks' Impossible Run, and Why Some Things Need a Hard No | Ep. 88 | Wyatt Matters

    This week starts with a customer who eats two entire pizzas… then demands a full refund. The crew has plenty of laughs, but the story quickly turns into a bigger conversation about entitlement, personal responsibility, and why some people simply refuse to accept the word "no." Then the focus shifts to the New York Knicks' remarkable playoff run after decades of disappointment. Their perseverance raises an important question: when should you keep fighting, and when is accepting "no" actually the wiser choice? The episode closes by exploring one of Jesus' most countercultural teachings: the path to real freedom isn't found by insisting on your own way. Sometimes the most life-changing answer God gives is "no"... because He's leading you to something far better. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts: John Samples – https://www.jsam.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/jsamtvKimberlee Herman – https://www.promisehillpodcast.com/ & https://www.redeemedhopeaz.com/Garrett Shelp – https://www.facebook.com/garrettshelp 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy – Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowers https://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head to https://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ — join the newsletter, learn about the cast, and find faith-based resources that go deeper.

    Matthew McConaughey, Life-Changing No's, and Why Boundaries Create Better Futures | Best of Wyatt Matters

    What happens when you say no to something everyone else says you should want? In this special broadcast edit of Wyatt Matters, Steve and the crew explore the surprising story of Matthew McConaughey turning down millions of dollars and walking away from the Hollywood roles that made him famous. At the height of his career, McConaughey realized success was pulling him away from the person he wanted to become. So he made a difficult decision: he said no. No to easy money. No to expectations. No to staying stuck in a version of life that no longer fits. That story becomes the launching point for a deeper conversation about boundaries, priorities, and the courage it takes to walk away from good opportunities in order to pursue better ones. The discussion explores why every meaningful life requires limits, why saying no is often an act of wisdom, and how our biggest regrets frequently come from the moments we failed to establish healthy boundaries..From relationships and careers to faith and personal growth, this episode offers a practical reminder that the right "no" can open the door to the right future. 🎙️ This week’s co-hosts:  John Samples – https://www.jsam.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/jsamtvMaribeth Dodd – https://www.maribethdodd.com/ & https://www.youtube.com/@TheHealthyHustlePodcastGarrett Shelp – https://www.facebook.com/garrettshelp 👉 Visit our sponsor: Yrefy - Student Loan Refinance For Struggling Borrowershttps://yrefy.com/ 👉 For more from Wyatt Matters, head tohttps://www.wyattmattersshow.com/ — join the newsletter, learn about the cast, and find faith-based resources that go deeper.
