❓Ever wonder if the impact God wants you to make stretches beyond the church walls—to the places you step into every day?

In this episode, Dr. Joel Hunter, Pastor of Community Benefit at Action Church, shares what it truly means to live out your faith with humility, consistency, and purpose. From his early years in a small town to the Civil Rights Movement, and from 55+ years of pastoring to advising President Barack Obama, Dr. Hunter offers a grounded, thoughtful look at a life shaped by service.

We talk about:
📄 Becoming a believer at age 8 and the moment that deepened his commitment
✊🏽 How the Civil Rights Movement shaped his calling
🌍 Bringing the Gospel into every environment—church, community, and national leadership
🕊️ Daily rhythms that keep him rooted (4am devotions, prayer, study, service)
🤝 Serving others without seeking recognition
🔥 Representing Jesus faithfully in every season

This conversation reminds us that calling isn’t a position—it’s a lifelong commitment to show up, love well, and live out the Gospel wherever God places you.

🚘 Ever felt like your life took a turn you didn’t plan for — and now you’re trying to figure out how to stay faithful in the middle of a story you didn’t expect to be living?

In this episode, Jerel Ricketts, Students & Outreach Coordinator at Action Church Sanford, opens up about what it means to steward the life God gives you, not just the one you imagined or expected. From unexpected career turns to surrendering control and learning to trust God with outcomes, Jerel shares the real, unfiltered journey behind following Jesus with consistency, humility, and obedience.

We talk about:
🎯 What to do when your expectations don’t match God’s direction
🙏 Why surrender is harder than we admit — and how control keeps us stuck
📖 The biblical reminders that keep your identity grounded
🔥 How to stay faithful when you’re unsure what’s next
🏃‍♂️ The habits, rhythms, and daily disciplines that anchor your faith
💬 How giving Jesus “a chance” turned into a calling Jerel never expected

This conversation is for anyone who feels like life hasn’t gone according to plan — and wonders how to trust God with the story He’s writing. Your responsibility isn’t to produce results… it’s to obey, surrender, and show up faithfully. When you release control, God writes something better than what you were holding onto.
