What Keeps You Stuck?
Have you ever stayed somewhere too long? A habit you meant to break, a grudge you meant to set down, a version of yourself you meant to leave behind?
Candace sits down with Jason Jackson Jr. for the fifth conversation of the season, and it opens with the story that changed his life: hearing Sadie Robertson tell the parable of the prodigal son on a college campus in 2019, right after he had walked
I Will Die Before God Is Proved A Liar
Have you ever done everything you believed God asked of you and still heard nothing back?
That’s where Jason Jackson Jr. sat in early 2025, pulling in millions of views on his content and still unable to cover

Faith, Football, and Finding Your Purpose
Have you ever been in the middle of something hard and wondered whether you're supposed to fight through it, pray it away, or just wait?
Jason Jackson Jr. grew up in De Kalb, Texas, a town of 1,200 people, with a mother working as a janitor and a father sentenced to decades in prison before Jason could walk. What he carries from that childhood isn't bitterness. It's a clarity about what it means

Have you ever prayed for something so specific, so far out of reach, that when it finally happened you almost couldn't believe it?
Jason Jackson Jr. grew up without his dad at home, raised by a single mom, watching the people around him make choices he knew would cost them. He poured everything into sports and got close enough to the NFL that scouts were paying attention. But then he walked away.

Do You Make People Feel Safe?

That is exactly what this episode is about. Candace and Jason VanRuler are back to continue the PATHS series, and this week they go deep on the two communication types that might be the most misunder

What If Better Communication Could Change Everything? A New Series with Jason VanRuler

Jason VanRuler is a licensed therapist, communication coach, and author who has spent years helpi
How Do you Want To Be Remembered?

What Francis Learned About Mountain Biking!

From there the episode moves
You Too Busy to Hear God’s Voice?
Francis Chan is back with Candace, and before anything else, he stops to pray, asking God to do what no conversation can do on its own. It doesn't matter whether someone grew up with parents who loved them well or with parents who didn't, he says. Either way, experiencing God's love takes a miracle, so he's asking for that miracle as they begin.
From there, Francis gives a glimpse of his life rig
