Look To Him

por Scott and Deb Durfey

Temporada 1

When My Heart Is Too Crowded To See God

What does it really mean to be “pure in heart”? It may have less to do with perfection and more to do with what is filling our hearts. In this episode, Scott and Deb talk honestly about divided desires, control, resentment, appearances, and the pressure to seem better than we feel. A crowded heart can miss what a clear heart begins to see. But when we become honest, surrender what is competing for our attention, and keep turning back to God, we begin to recognize that He has been present all along.

Come Home, I Miss You - With Ashley Arnson

Ashley Arnson spent six years keeping God at a distance—not because she hated Him, but because she was afraid of what He might ask her to become. In this honest conversation, Ashley shares how performance, perfectionism, and fear shaped her view of God—and what happened when she finally prayed again. What she found wasn’t control or condemnation. She found patience, light, and an invitation to come home.

When Peacemakers Ring Your Doorbell

What does it mean to become a peacemaker through Jesus Christ? In this episode, Scott and Deb talk honestly about the difficulty of choosing kindness when it is hard, seeing beyond outward behavior, and responding to others with greater charity. Peacemaking is not weakness, avoidance, or the absence of boundaries. It is allowing Christ to shape the way we see, speak, and respond. As we look to Him, we begin to see others more as He sees them—and through Him, we become people who bring peace into difficult places.

When God Feels Gone

Have you ever been in a storm so loud that you wondered if God even knew you were there? In this raw and honest episode, Deb and Scott talk about the ache of feeling spiritually flat, forgotten, unseen, or alone — even while trying to pray, believe, and do the right things. Using the story of Jesus walking on the water, they explore a different kind of miracle: not Peter’s ability to walk on water, but the peace that came when Jesus got into the boat. This conversation is for anyone who has ever whispered, “Heavenly Father, are You really there?” and needed the reminder that maybe the storm has not stopped yet — but you do not have to face it alone.

What Happens After You Ruin Your Life? - With Wayne Ogden

Wayne Ogden had money, success, status, and a life that looked untouchable from the outside. But behind the image was shame, secrets, fear, and a collapse that eventually led to prison, public humiliation, and a moment sitting alone in a barn ready to end his life. In this raw conversation, Wayne shares what happened when everything fell apart — and how he discovered that God still moves toward broken people who think they’ve gone too far.

When Survival Is the Only Prayer You Have Left - With Tawny Fortin

Join us for a raw and unforgettable conversation with Tawny, who was born into chaos: a mother she describes as a “professional alcoholic,” a father tied to a 1%er motorcycle gang and meth manufacturing, and a childhood where survival felt normal. Her story moves through addiction, motherhood, recovery, and the devastating death of her son — the kind of loss that shattered every illusion of control she had left. But standing in the wreckage of what she could not fix, Tawny says she found God. This episode is about grief, surrender, and the brutal mercy of discovering that even when people like her don’t know how to find God, God still knows exactly where to find them.

When Shame Says God Is Done With You

Shame does not just tell you that you did something wrong. Shame tells you you are wrong. It tells you God is tired of the same prayer, the same weakness, the same relapse, the same need, the same mess. It makes you imagine God with folded arms, disappointed eyes, and disgust in His voice. And when you already feel dirty, broken, exposed, or too far gone, shame can start sounding more believable than God. In this raw episode, Deb and Scott talk honestly about the lies shame tells, the way we project human disappointment onto God, and the healing truth that God is not disgusted by our weakness. From addiction and public shame to the woman taken in adultery, the prodigal son, and Peter’s denial, this conversation is for anyone who has wondered, “Is God done with me?” Shame says hide. God says come. And no matter how messy the mess is, He is still reaching, still inviting, still loving, and still not done with you

Come As You Are

In the first episode of Look To Him, Scott and Deb open the heart behind this new podcast: creating a place for real people, real struggles, and real hope in Jesus Christ. “Come As You Are” is an invitation for anyone who feels tired, ashamed, disconnected, spiritually numb, or unsure where they belong. Scott and Deb share personal stories of desperation, recovery, shame, faith, and learning that we do not have to clean ourselves up before coming to Christ. He meets us in the mess, in the questions, in the pain, and in the places we often think make us unworthy of Him. This episode explores the difference between guilt and shame, the exhausting trap of trying harder without healing, and the peace that begins when we stop hiding and simply turn toward Him. Whether you feel close to God, far from Him, or unsure what you believe, this conversation is a reminder that Jesus already knows your name, your story, and your heart. You do not have to fix everything first. Just come as you are.
