A real friend doesn’t just tell you what you want to hear—they love you enough to tell you the truth. They meet you where you are, call you out when you’ve gone astray, and encourage you to become who you were meant to be. That’s the kind of friend we all long for, and that’s the kind of friend Jesus is to us.

In this episode, Brandon and Chris dive into what it means to know Jesus as the Friend of sinners. They talk about how He meets us right in the middle of our mess, how His love refuses to leave us there, and how His grace lifts us into something greater. Whether you’re struggling with guilt, seeking hope, or simply wanting to know Christ more deeply, this conversation will remind you that Jesus is the truest friend your heart could ever find.

In light of the recent tragic death of Christian and conservative icon, Charlie Kirk, many are asking questions about suffering, faith, and hope. In today's episode, we look to the Scripture for hope and wisdom, and to get a bird's eye view of the real war between darkness and light.

Let’s Take a Moment to Focus
Focus matters. But even more important than simply focusing… is focusing on the right thing—or rather, the right One. In a world full of distractions, keeping our eyes on Jesus is essential to walking faithfully with Him. When we focus on Christ, we rise above the crashing waves of life. But when we lose sight of Him, we begin to sink.

Join Chris and special guest Sam Smith as they reflect on the power of focus—and what it really means to fix our eyes on Jesus.
