Maybe you’ve grown up as a Christian going to church or maybe you’re not interested in religion at all. But when you’re scrolling, hanging out with friends, trying to sleep, or overwhelmed with your day-to-day, do big existential questions ever pop in- you know- things like, “Why am I here? How did all this get here? What happens after I die?” “Is there a God and is there really meaning to all this?” ”What’s so special about Jesus Christ?”

We’ve all experienced deep longing for something this world can’t seem to satisfy.

Even someone as wildly successful as Taylor Swift knows that to be true. “I had won album of the year at the Grammys for a second time...” She said, “and I remember thinking afterwards, ’Oh my god, that was all you wanted!... That was all you focused on. You get to the mountaintop and look around and you’re like... what now?”

If you’re tired and feeling overwhelmed with all the different voices yelling for your affections- telling you what to go after- whether it be success, beauty, the perfect partner, social media followers, money, or power… only to leave you let down and unsatisfied, searching for more… Maybe like my friends and me, you’re after finding something REAL.

Every week, join me (Janell Wood), special co-hosts and guests as we ask questions, look for answers, and search for the source of something REAL: Restoration, Eternity, Authenticity, and Love. I believe those things can ultimately be found in relationship with Jesus Christ, but don’t take my word for it. Listen to our conversations for yourself and go on a journey with us: Is Jesus the REAL thing?©2023 All Rights Reserved

  • When the Suffering Won't End - Jeanine's Story
    2026/06/10

    Happy Wednesday!

    We are thrilled to introduce another one of our co-hosts this season, Jeanine.

    If you've spent any time around Jeanine, you've likely experienced her joy, kindness, and unwavering love for Jesus. She radiates God's light wherever she goes, but behind her bright smile is a journey marked by deep suffering and perseverance.

    For more than 12 years, Jeanine has battled Lyme disease along with numerous other chronic health challenges. In this episode, she shares her honest struggle with unanswered prayers, the pain of waiting, and the difficult questions that arise when healing doesn't come.

    Why do some people experience miraculous healing while others continue to suffer? How do we hold onto hope when our circumstances don't change? What does faith look like in the middle of disappointment and uncertainty?

    Jeanine vulnerably shares her story of wrestling with God, navigating a crisis of hope, and discovering His presence even in the midst of ongoing pain.

    This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply encouraging for anyone who has ever questioned God's timing, struggled with suffering, or wondered if He still sees them in their pain.

    We hope you'll join us for this powerful episode and keep Jeanine in your prayers as she continues her journey of faith and healing.

  • The Problem Isn't Always Evidence with Rick Allen
    2026/06/03

    Happy Wednesday!

    Today we're joined by returning guest Rick Allan, along with our co-hosts Sarah and Katelyn.

    Rick was once an atheist whose skepticism drove him to take a deep dive into the evidence for Christianity. What began as an investigation eventually led him to discover what he believes was overwhelming evidence for the truth of the Christian faith.

    In this episode, we go beyond discussing historical evidence, apologetics, and arguments for God's existence. We explore a deeper question: What happens when the evidence points to Jesus, but someone still struggles to believe or surrender their life to Him?

    Together, we discuss the difference between intellectual belief and personal commitment, the barriers that can keep people from embracing faith, and why the greatest obstacle to Christianity is not always a lack of evidence.

    Whether you're a skeptic, a seeker, or a lifelong believer, this conversation will challenge you to consider what it means to follow the truth wherever it leads.

    About Rick:

    Rick Allan, Speaker/Author, is a self-professed skeptic and former atheist turned Christian. As an atheist he was attending church services only to support his wife, believing much of what he heard was simply a made-up story. However, he came to realize his belief was apathetic, based only on anecdotal evidence and opinions. So, he began a journey, “A Skeptics Journey”, to investigate the evidence for himself. He discovered there was substantial evidence for both God and Christianity.

  • New Age vs New Thought? with Melissa Dougherty
    2026/05/27

    Happy Wednesday!

    Today we are joined by guest Melissa Dougherty alongside our host and co-host, Janell and Sarah.

    In this episode, we dive into the growing influence of New Age beliefs and New Thought theology — ideas that have subtly made their way into the church and Christian culture. We tackle questions many believers are asking today: Is the Enneagram demonic? Is yoga okay for Christians? Why are so many Christians blending biblical truth with New Age practices?

    Melissa helps break down the key differences between New Age and New Thought, exposing how these belief systems can distort the Gospel while also encouraging Christians to pursue discernment and biblical truth.

    We hope this thought-provoking conversation challenges, equips, and encourages you in your walk with Christ.

    About Melissa:

    Melissa Dougherty is a Christian Apologist best known for her YouTube channel, where she covers a variety of theological topics. In addition to her theological and cultural discussions, she engages her audience with satirical skits and hosts a range of esteemed guests. Academically, she has earned Associate degrees in both Early Childhood Multicultural Education and Liberal Arts. Furthermore, she holds a Bachelor's degree in Religious Studies from Southern Evangelical Seminary and is currently pursuing her Master's degree in Christian Apologetics from the same institution. Melissa resides in New Mexico with her husband and their two daughters.
