What if saying yes to God — even when it costs you everything — is actually the safest place you can be?

Today we're joined by Yegor Hambaryan, a friend of the podcast who has lived more adventures with Jesus in one lifetime than most of us could imagine. Yegor grew up in Armenia, came to faith as a young boy at a summer camp, lost both of his parents as a teenager, and went on to spend years as a missionary across Europe. Most recently, he walked away from a successful tech sales career to become a student in New York — trusting God to handle the rest.

Yegor talks about what it looks like to be like a tree planted by a stream — not immune to hard seasons, but rooted deeply enough that the hard seasons don't change what you look like from the outside. He talks about the power of a grateful heart, why complainers never get things done, and why sharing the miracles God gives you is the very thing that opens the door to receiving more of them.

If God is calling you to something that comes with a real cost right now, this one is for you.

Some conversations are worth revisiting — and this quarter gave us a lot of them.

In this special recap episode, we're pulling together some of our favorite moments from the last few months of guests and conversations. Think of it as a highlight reel of the best things we heard, said, and sat with — and an invitation to go back and listen to the full episodes if you missed them.

We revisit Rachel Bailey on the lies we believe and why there's no shame in having believed them. Noah Egeberg on obedience — and the surprising truth that the first fruit of saying yes to God isn't the outcome, it's intimacy with Him. Tori Benham on the power of agreement and why what we come into agreement with shapes everything about how we live. Thann Bennett on why God's invitations are always more about relationship than results. Ben Cooley on sitting with your kids in the hard stuff instead of rushing to fix it. And one more gem from Ben on culture — whether you're setting it or it's setting you.

If something jumps out at you, go back and listen to the full conversation. There's more where that came from.

What if the reason your relationships feel unfulfilling has less to do with the people in them — and more to do with what you've been expecting them to fix?

Dean Goossen is back for part two! Counselor, friend of the podcast, and father of eight – Dean walks us through one of the most honest and clarifying frameworks we've heard for understanding why we do what we do in relationships — starting with the image of a heart full of holes, where love gets poured in and leaks right back out before it can do any good.

We talk about what it looks like to react from old wounds without even realizing it, why fear is so often at the root of our relational struggles, and what it actually takes to begin healing — not just managing. And then we get into unspoken expectations, which might be the most quietly destructive force in any relationship. The things we assume the other person already knows. The needs we never voice. The conflict that builds up not because anyone did anything wrong, but because nobody said what they actually needed.

Dean closes with something so simple and so hard most of us never actually do it. Just slow down. Be still. And see what comes to the surface when you stop running from it.
