Introducing Project Red ā a powerful new podcast that brings you remarkable stories of sacrifice, passion, and unwavering commitment in the face of seemingly impossible challenges.
Join hosts Patrick Austin, Will McGinnis, and Mark Stuart as they launch this inspiring journey with an intimate conversation about what it truly means to "endeavor" ā to persist when mountains rise beyond mountains, and to serve faithfully when the path forward seems unclear.
For over 20 years, Hands and Feet Project has been serving vulnerable children and families in Haiti, weathering devastating hurricanes, earthquakes, political unrest, and countless other challenges. Now, they're bringing those experiencesāand the wisdom gained through themādirectly to you through compelling conversations with change-makers who have dedicated their lives to being the hands and feet of Jesus in a broken world.
In our debut episode of Project Red, our co-hosts Will and Mark sit down with our host Patrick and share the heart behind both the podcast and their organization's mission. You'll hear how a rock band's passion transformed into a two-decade commitment to Haiti, tales of supernatural provision when disaster struck, and honest reflections about what it means to endure when others are walking away.
Whether you're considering stepping into your own calling, currently facing mountains that seem insurmountable, or simply seeking stories of hope and perseverance, Project Red offers encouragement through authentic conversations with people who have discovered that saying "yes" to God can lead to extraordinary impact.
Tune in to be inspired by stories of ordinary people showing up in extraordinary waysāpeople who understand that behind one mountain always stands another, but who've discovered the courage to keep climbing anyway.

Re-Souled for the Climb ā Brian Shun on Choosing Repair Over Retreat
Season 1 Ā· Episode 6
lundi 18 août 2025 ⢠Duration 01:09:33
Our hosts, Patrick Austin and Will McGinniss, sit down with strategist, storyteller, and coach Brian Shun, whose journey from adoption to identity, from burnout to clarity, offers a deeply human portrait of what it takes to keep goingātruthfully, wisely, and well.
A man whoās worn many hats but always followed one throughlineāpeople over product, depth over performanceāBrian invites us into the heart-work of leadership, legacy, and choosing repair over retreat. From his own story of returning to Korea to meet his first foster family, to coaching high-capacity leaders through high-stakes moments, he speaks with clarity, candor, and a hard-won hope that doesnāt flinch at the mess.
Hereās what weāre getting into:
š„ What āresolveā really meansāand what it costs
š„ Living out adoptionāand the ache of not seeing yourself in the mirror or those around you
š„ The difference between grit and stubbornness
š„ Why dysfunction can feel safer than transformation
š„ The power of facing pain instead of analyzing it
š„ Identity, faith, and the ground you grow from
If youāre tired of pushing but donāt want to quit, or if you're trying to swing again without re-injuring your soulāthis oneās for you.
Listen in. Be willing to be wrong. Find out whatās still true.
And if youāve got to re-soul your shoes for the next climbālace up.

The Power of Yes: Andrea McGinniss on Pressing Through and Passing the Torch
Season 1 Ā· Episode 7
lundi 15 septembre 2025 ⢠Duration 53:50
What sets Andrea apart is not just her tenure, but her posture. She has carried Hands & Feet Project from infrastructure to intimacy, from programs to presenceānever losing sight of the āone child perspective.ā Her leadership has been as much about faithfulness as it has about strategy, marked by a relentless pursuit of relationship, dignity, and the God-given potential in every child and family.
In this candid conversation, Andrea reflects on what it means to pressāto strain forward when the load is heavy, to choose resilience when resignation tempts, and to trust that even pressing pain can yield pressing hope. She opens up about the moment she first encountered Haitiās radical generosity, the lessons of pressing through trial, and the wisdom required to press pause as she steps away from the Executive Director role.
Hereās what we explore together:
š„ What lead to Andreaās first āyesā in serving at Hands & Feet Project
š„ How Hands & Feet Project is pressing forward and operating in our mission in 2025
š„ Why the āone child perspectiveā must anchor every step in our mission, however large
š„ How to press pause with integrity, gratitude, and hope for whatās next
š„ The legacy Andrea hopes to leaveānot in numbers, but in culture and care
If youāre a leader carrying more than you think you can hold, if youāre in a season of big questions, or if you need to be reminded that pressing isnāt punishment but preparationāthis conversation is for you.
Lean in. Take a breath. And press on.

Finding God at the Crux: Michael Farren on Stillness, Surrender, and the Kingdom We Build
Season 1 Ā· Episode 9
lundi 17 novembre 2025 ⢠Duration 52:45
Across decades of writing, Michael has known seasons when the climb felt brutalāwhere the crux of his journey nearly broke him. He speaks honestly about those moments, the ones that rattled his confidence and stripped things down to bone. And yet, it was in those valleys that Godās kindness gave him the courage to keep ascending. Not through spectacle, but through stillness. Not through noise, but through clarity.
In this conversation, Michael unpacks the power of authenticityāwhy it wins every time, and why pretending never builds anything that lasts. He reflects on Peter, on the ways we all attempt to build kingdoms of our own making until God, in mercy, sets us straight. He reveals how that hard truth reshaped his prayer life and reminded him that God is writing a story for each of usāone far better than the scripts we try to control.
We talk about Bourbon Gospel, his newest endeavor, and why he knows itās the assignment for this season. Itās not a brand extension or a pivot. Itās overflow. Itās what happens when a man follows the thread of that ādying breathā moment all the way into the next room God invites him into.
Hereās what we explore together:
š„ What it means to create from listeningĀ
š„ How the crux moments of life become the places God rebuilds us
š„ Why authenticity outlasts talent, and why pretense collapses under its own weight
š„ The tender rebuke of Peterās storyāand the freedom that follows
š„ How stillness becomes a sanctuary where God speaks
If youāve ever found yourself at a breaking point, if youāve ever questioned your purpose, or if youāre longing for clarity in the climbāthis conversation will sit beside you and steady your hands. It will remind you that God is kind. That He is near. And that the story Heās writing in you is still unfolding.
Lean in. Take a breath. And keep climbing.

When the Math Doesnāt Add Up: Darren Tyler on Radical Belief and Generosity
Season 1 Ā· Episode 8
lundi 20 octobre 2025 ⢠Duration 54:30
For two decades, Darren managed artists like Jars of Clay, Third Day, and Kutless. But when the applause faded, a deeper call emergedāto build something that could not be charted or sold. Out of that conviction came Conduit Mission and Conduit Church in Franklin, Tennessee: a community defined not by its seating capacity but by its sending capacity. Today, more than half of the churchās resources flow outward into global missions across Haiti, Africa, Asia, and beyond.
In this conversation, Darren shares what it really means to believeānot in outcomes, but in obedience. He unpacks the quiet, costly trust it takes to keep giving when the numbers donāt add up, to keep sowing when the harvest feels far away, and to lead a church culture that believes generosity is not a sermon point but a spiritual posture.
Hereās what we explore together:
š„ The spark that ignited Conduit Mission and the faith that kept it burning
š„ What happens when a church decides to believe God enough to give radically
š„ How belief reshapes the metrics of successāfrom budgets and attendance to transformation and trust
š„ In the Kingdom, you either go or sendādoing nothing isnāt an option.
If youāve ever stood in a season where vision felt fragile, where the climb grew steep, and belief was the only thing between you and surrenderāthis conversation will remind you what it means to believe anyway.
Lean in. Take a breath. And believe again.
