What do you do when you’re sidelined, overlooked, or losing?

Most people shrink.
 Real leaders rise.

In this episode, Luke Boswell breaks down what it means to:
 ✔ Lead without recognition
 ✔ Serve when it’s not about you
 ✔ Live for God even in the locker room

This is leadership the world doesn’t teach.
 This is kingdom leadership.

You don’t have to prove yourself anymore.

Not to people.
 Not to yourself.
 Not even to God.

In Christ, the verdict is already in.

This episode on 1 Corinthians will challenge how you see success, failure, identity, and even your relationship with God. It will show you what it means to truly live from grace and not for it.

Jesus didn’t just tell us to love our enemies. He showed us how.

But let’s be honest. Forgiveness is one of the hardest things a human being can do.

In this deep conversation, Lucas Barrett and returning guest Evan Davis unpack what it actually means to forgive people who have hurt you, betrayed you, or wronged you and why loving your enemies is impossible without Christ.

From the cross… to everyday conflicts… to powerful real-life stories of radical forgiveness, this episode explores:

• Why “I’m sorry” and “I forgive you” are the hardest words to say
 • How pride keeps us from reconciliation
 • What Jesus washing Judas’ feet teaches us about love
 • Why willpower can’t produce real forgiveness
 • How the Holy Spirit changes our hearts to love like Christ

If you’ve ever struggled with anger, bitterness, or forgiving someone who hurt you… this conversation might change the way you see the Gospel.

Because the truth is:

The people we struggle to love may be the very place God wants to transform our hearts.

What happens when the thing you’ve built your identity on starts crushing you?

In this episode of Living For His Glory, I sit down with Trevor Johnson and Draegen Majors from College Golf Fellowship to talk about something every athlete and person faces:

Identity.

We dive into:
 ⛳ The pressure behind competitive sports
 💭 Anxiety, expectations, and people-pleasing
 🏆 Why success never satisfies the way we think it will
 📖 What the Bible actually says about who we are
 🙏 How the gospel frees us to compete, work, and live for God’s glory

From stories about professional golf and college athletics to lessons from players like Scottie Scheffler and Webb Simpson, this conversation reveals a powerful truth:

When your identity is in Christ, you don’t have to perform for approval—you get to live from it.

Whether you're an athlete, competitor, student, or simply someone wrestling with pressure and purpose, this episode will challenge and encourage you.

Because the real freedom comes when you stop playing for your identity and start living from it.

🎧 Listen now and learn how to live, compete, and succeed for God’s glory.

You don't need to grow up in church to be a faithful leader. In this powerful episode, Emma Almquist shares how she went from not growing up in church to leading a Bible study for her entire college golf team.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Finding faith as a senior in high school
 • Moving across the country and needing something deeper
 • Letting go of friendships that no longer fit
 • Why golf stopped defining her identity
 • What happens when Jesus becomes bigger than your score
 • Leading even when you don’t feel qualified

This is a story about foundation.
 About deconstruction and rebuilding.
 About obedience before confidence.

If you’ve ever felt unqualified…
 If you didn’t grow up in faith…
 If you’re scared to step into leadership…

This conversation will remind you:

God doesn’t call the equipped.

He equips the called.

When God nudges your heart, say yes.

What does real ministry look like when no one’s watching?
 What happens when love stops being about self and becomes a sacrifice?
 And what if God’s greatest work in you starts not with doing, but with simply being in His presence?

In this open and Spirit-led episode, I sit down with my good friend Kendall Brown, a fellow religion major and someone who quietly lives out what many preach. We talk about:

• Growing up Nazarene and the beauty of small-town ministry
•  The danger of objectifying love (especially around Valentine’s Day)
•  What it really means to be both a giver and a receiver
•  The simplicity of spiritual disciplines: reading, praying, and being
•  Why real friendships and marriages are built on mission, not just emotion

Whether you’re burned out from trying to "do more for God," questioning how to love others well, or just looking for a conversation that feels like truth spoken in love, this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen now and be reminded:
 You don’t need to perform to please God. You need to walk with Him and love like Him.

We’re not in a health crisis. We’re in a heart crisis.
Mediocrity is everywhere… in our faith, our families, our fitness, and our finances. But God didn’t call you to be average. He called you to be excellent.
To be diligent.
To be set apart.

It's time to call it out
 From Proverbs and the Legend of Kobe Bryant, from lazy sluggards to skillful warriors, I break down what it really means to live fully for God's glory.

We dive into:

• Why mediocrity is the enemy of God’s design
• How laziness delays God’s timing
• What Proverbs says about work ethic, discipline, and reward
• The legacy of Kobe Bryant and how his “Mamba Mentality” mirrors biblical diligence
• What it means to go all in with your life for Jesus

If you’re tired of coasting…
 If you’re ready to stand before kings...
 If you know there’s more inside you...

💥 This episode will ignite that spark.
Because God didn’t make you to be obscure. He made you to shine.

God is right on time.

Pastor and teacher Austin Groves joins the show for a raw, Spirit-filled conversation about shepherding in every area of life, from the home to the church to the classroom. We talk about:

• Why ministry begins with how you lead your family
• What it really means to be a shepherd (and why Jesus called Himself the Good One)
• The difference between willpower and real power in the life of a believer
• Miscarriage, grief, and learning to rest in God’s presence
• How to hear God's voice clearly and stop putting words in His mouth
• What it looks like to surrender instead of strive

If you want to lead others well, you need to first let God lead you.

Whether you're a pastor, student, teacher, or just someone figuring it all out, this episode will ground you, encourage you, and call you higher.

In this deeply personal and practical episode, I sit down with someone who has shaped more lives than he’ll ever know — my former assistant principal, baseball coach, and lifelong mentor Coach Keith Galloway.

Coach Galloway shares what nearly 30 years of discipling students and athletes has taught him about:
 💬 Speaking the truth with love and humility
📚 Building respect before being “liked”
🛠️ Mentoring through correction and encouragement
⏳ Creating space for people to grow without pressure
❤️ And how Christlike leadership always makes room for restoration

Whether you're a coach, parent, teacher, student, or just someone longing to make an eternal impact, this episode will challenge, comfort, and sharpen you.

"What does it really look like to be a man of faith in the classroom, the gym, the golf course, and in your relationships?"

In this first episode of 2026, I sit down with one of my oldest teammates and brothers, Grey Goff, for a real, reflective conversation about what it means to follow Jesus in your everyday life.

We talk about:

• Developing discipline that lasts
• Learning to lead by example instead of controlling others
• Reading Scripture when you feel spiritually stuck
• The power of great mentorship and godly community
• Why giving God your outcomes means going all in
• How Scotty Scheffler shows us what faith on the big stage really looks like
• And how to live a life that points people to Jesus—without ever yelling about it

What do elite athletes, cage fighters, and warriors of faith have in common? Grit.

In this episode, Jacob Wolfe returns to talk about what wrestling and MMA taught him about real faith. The kind of faith you fight for in the dark when no one’s watching. We talk sacrifice, suffering, discipline, and how following Jesus is the most demanding and most rewarding journey you’ll ever take.

In losing everything and trusting God anyway, Jacob’s story will challenge your comfort and ignite your calling. Whether you’re in the gym, the ring, or the trenches of life this is your reminder:

Faith isn’t passive.
 It’s a fight.
 And the win belongs to the one who refuses to tap out.

Can you follow Jesus and work in politics? Can you keep your faith in a world that rewards pride, power, and self-promotion?

In this powerful episode, I reconnect with my good friend Trenton Hale who now works in the heart of Washington D.C. to talk about what it means to stay grounded in Christ while navigating one of the most secular and self-driven environments in our culture today.

We talk about:

• Keeping faith when you're the only one who has it
• The difference between serving power and serving people
• How Christians can influence politics without compromising the gospel
• Why your transformation isn't just for you but it's also for others
• What it looks like to be the hands and feet of Jesus in a broken system

This episode is for anyone wondering how to live faithfully in a faithless environment and why Jesus is still King, even in the capital.

The world needs more godly leaders. This is what one looks like.

Can you be married, raising a family, and living on fire for God at 22?
Jordan Sims says yes and he’s living it.

In this raw and powerful episode, Jordan shares how he went from a pastor’s son to a husband and father of a one-year-old daughter while growing as a leader, deepening his walk with Jesus, and confronting the painful realities of selfishness, pride, and spiritual warfare that come with godly manhood.

We talk:

• 🔥 How marriage isn’t about happiness but holiness
• 🍼 What becoming a young dad taught him about the Father’s love
• 🛠️ Why God uses conflict and discomfort to grow you
• 💪 The truth about masculinity, obedience, and spiritual leadership

About legacy, mentorship, marriage, masculinity, and the war on identity.

As we close out the Fireside Faith series, Joel Hayes joins me for one of the most real and powerful conversations yet.

This episode explores:

• What true identity in Christ looks like
• Why confidence comes after surrender
• How we’re called to be salt and light in our circles
• What it means to give 100% even when we feel like we only have 20
• How God meets us — and changes us — when we show up

In a powerful and heartfelt episode, Paityn Valentine shares her journey of moving from religious routine to deep relationship with Jesus. As a freshman navigating faith away from home, Paityn opens up about battling perfectionism, discovering peace in God’s love, and learning to listen rather than just speak.

Together, we reflect on the parable of the lost sheep, the pain and purpose of transition, the beauty of unique friendships, and how God reveals Himself through presence not performance.

🔥 We talk revival, realness, and how spiritual deepening happens not just in chapel, but in quiet obedience.

🕊️ Whether you’re feeling distant from God or just craving community that gets it, this conversation will encourage you to turn your face back to the One who never turned His from you.

📖 Challenge of the Week: Be still. Listen. Let God speak. And READ YOUR BIBLE.

What if the very thing you thought disqualified you was what God planned to use most? This week on Living For His Glory, I sit down with Avery Cap, my sister in Christ and fellow pastoral ministry student, for a powerful, real, and unscripted conversation about calling, dyslexia, and how God speaks through whispers.

From a childhood in Illinois to late-night fireside conversations in Nashville, Avery’s story reminds us that God doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called. We talk about women in ministry, battling self-doubt, uncomfortable obedience, and how every small moment, like choosing to sit with a stranger, can lead to divine appointments.

If you’ve ever wondered if God can use your weakness, if your story matters, or how to step boldly into ministry, this is your episode. Get ready to be moved, encouraged, and challenged to live relationally and love people where they are.

If you've ever asked:

• “Where is God when I feel numb?”
• “Why don’t Christians live like Christ?”
• “Can I really turn my life around?”

...then this conversation is for you.
