Police Detective Explains Why His Biggest Mission Isn't Solving Cases

In this episode, Justin sits down with a law enforcement officer who shares how God made it clear that his career is about more than simply putting on a uniform—it is an opportunity to serve others and share Christ. He walks us through the journey of becoming a police officer, advancing into detective work, and the experiences that have shaped his perspective along the way. He also opens up about the importance of viewing the Bible as the roadmap for life and how his faith impacts the way he approaches his work, his coworkers, and the people he encounters every day. But one of the most honest parts of the conversation is the realization that those closest to us can sometimes receive our leftovers. While work and church may get our best, our families and closest relationships can unintentionally get what remains. How do we recognize that imbalance—and what can we do about it?

Why Your Identity Can't Be In a Relationship

In this episode, Justin sits down with a young man whose childhood involved a lot of moving, but through it all, he continued finding his way back to Moss Brook Church. From getting involved in worship and playing drums at a young age to discovering the joy of serving others, he shares how his faith has continued to grow through different seasons of life. He opens up about a high school relationship that taught him a powerful lesson about identity—why we can't build our identity around relationships, possessions, popularity, or anything else the world offers, but must find our identity solely in Christ. He also shares why he made the decision to delete social media, what he's learned from stepping away from it, and how it has changed the way he spends his time and focuses his attention. And for young people considering what comes next, he offers encouragement to consider Christian college if they feel God leading them in that direction—not simply for an education, but as an opportunity to grow deeper in their faith and pursue Christ alongside others.

I Had This Whole Plan... None Of It Happened

From growing up in an abusive home where her parents were involved in selling drugs to experiencing the heartbreak of loosing her favorite person, Justin sits down with a lady who's story is filled with moments that could have left her feeling completely alone. But even in the midst of deep loss, she has discovered something that has changed the way she walks through suffering: God doesn't walk away. She shares about the people God has placed in her life who have been willing to speak truth, offer love, and walk alongside her through the hardest seasons. She also talks about the importance of intentionally growing your relationship with God through prayer and reading His Word—even on the days when you don't feel like it. And because even the hardest stories have some unexpected and hilarious moments, she also shares the story of the first time she met her husband—which, believe it or not, involved him cleaning a toilet in the ladies' bathroom! 😂 It's a reminder that you never know where or how God might bring someone into your life. This is a conversation about grief, perseverance, friendship, faith, laughter, and finding hope when life doesn't make sense. If you're walking through a difficult season, or know someone who is, we hope this episode reminds you that you don't have to walk through it alone—and that God is still there, even in the darkest moments.

Temptation is NOT a Sin

In this powerful episode, Justin sits down with a young man whose life has been marked by heartbreak, loss, and redemption. From experiencing his parents' divorce at a young age to living a double life—going to church one weekend and drinking alcohol the next—he shares the reality of trying to fill the emptiness with everything but God. He opens up about his battle with pornography, anxiety, and depression, the devastating loss of his mother to cancer, and the anger he wrestled with toward God after hitting rock bottom. But through the chaos, brokenness, and unanswered questions, he discovered a life-changing truth: God is still good, even when life isn't. Today, his life looks completely different. His faith has become the foundation of who he is, and his story is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond God's grace.

Most Hurdles are Self-Imposed: Here's Why

In this episode, our guest shares his honest journey of growing up in the Christian faith, walking away from it after getting married and starting a family, and hitting a point where everything began to unravel. During a painful season of separation from his wife and daughter, he was forced to confront the man he had become—and decide whether he would stay there or fight for something better. Through the faithful mentorship of Godly men, reconnecting with the local church, and making the daily choice to pursue Christ, God began transforming every area of his life. Today, he shares how that transformation restored his relationship with his wife, deepened his faith, and changed the way he leads and loves the people around him. Along the way, we talk about the incredible impact of Christian men who encourage, challenge, and sharpen one another, why we often create the very obstacles that keep us from growing, how he somehow gets paid to talk for a living, and the story of how he found his way to Moss Brook Church. And just when you think the conversation is winding down... the tables turn. He pulls an UNO reverse card on Justin, putting him in the hot seat for a fun and unexpected ending you won't want to miss.

Stop Making THIS Mistake!

Growing up in church doesn't always mean your faith is truly your own. Justin sits down with a young lady who shares her journey from relying on her mother's faith to developing a genuine relationship with Christ after reaching the end of herself. Through honest conversations about body image struggles, surrender, and finding her identity in Jesus, she reveals how God transformed her life from the inside out. She also unpacks why surrounding yourself with healthy, Godly friendships can completely change the direction of your walk with Christ, why serving in the local church has become one of the greatest joys of her life, and what she believes many churches are missing today. Together, we explore what it looks like to stop squeezing God into the leftover moments of our week and instead build our entire lives around Him. If you've ever wrestled with making your faith personal, struggled to find your worth, or wondered how to put God first in a world full of distractions, this conversation is for you.

Does the Church Have a Future?

Where is Moss Brook Church headed? What does healthy growth actually look like? And how do we prepare for what God is doing next? In this episode, Pastor Tim shares the future of Moss Brook Church, reflecting on the incredible ways God has been growing the church and casting a vision for what's ahead. He explains why Moss Brook has developed such a strong culture of inviting others, why that culture is making an eternal impact, and how every person has a role to play in welcoming new people into the family of God. As the church continues to grow, Pastor Tim also discusses why some of the ways we've always done ministry need to evolve. From building stronger volunteer teams to creating healthier systems that support continued growth, this conversation is all about stewarding what God has entrusted to the church while keeping the mission the same: helping people know and follow Jesus.

Two Sides to the Coin

Some childhood memories are filled with laughter, music, dancing, and unforgettable Christmas celebrations. Others are marked by fear, abuse, and pain. In this powerful episode, our guest shares what it was like growing up with both realities at the same time. He opens up about life with an abusive father and brothers, and how everything changed when his father's legal troubles became the turning point that led him to Jesus Christ. Although he witnessed his dad's incredible change, it wasn't until college that he truly understood what it meant to have a personal relationship with Christ. In this honest conversation, he also shares one of his greatest ongoing struggles, why following Jesus means living differently than the world, and how God's grace continues to meet him in the fight against addiction and temptation. If you've ever wondered whether people can really change, struggled with addiction, or felt trapped by your past, this episode is a reminder that your story doesn't have to end where it started. There is hope, freedom, and redemption through Jesus Christ.

Don't Ignore THIS Answer to Prayer!

In this powerful episode, Justin sits down with a young man whose story proves that being around Christianity isn't the same as having a relationship with Christ. Growing up in church, he heard the messages every week—but it wasn't until his teenage years that his faith became personal. He opens up about battling a destructive temper, the shame of being addicted to pornography, and the turning point that came when he chose honesty instead of hiding. Through vulnerable conversations with his dad and a decision to make Christ the center of his life, God completely transformed the direction of his story. This conversation is filled with hope for anyone who feels trapped by sin, weighed down by guilt, or wondering if real change is possible. You'll also hear practical wisdom on prayer as he explains the four ways God answers us: Yes. No. Slow. Grow.
