In Episode 2 of our June series on pastors who have influenced our spiritual growth, Greg and Nathan discuss two faithful preachers whose ministries have left a lasting impact on their lives. Greg shares about Alistair Begg and his clear, Christ-centered exposition of Scripture, while Nathan highlights David Platt and his passion for making disciples and calling believers to radical obedience to Christ. After offering a brief biography of each pastor, Greg and Nathan reflect on what they appreciate most about their teaching and how God has used their ministries to encourage, challenge, and strengthen their faith. Join us for another conversation about faithful preaching, spiritual growth, and the pastors who have helped shape our walk with Christ.

In the first episode of their June series, 10 Pastors To Help Shepherd Your Growth, Greg and Nathan share the stories of two men whose ministries have deeply influenced their walk with Christ. Greg highlights the wit, grace, and gospel-centered teaching of Steve Brown, while Nathan discusses the faithful preaching, biblical conviction, and discipleship impact of Voddie Baucham. Along the way, they offer brief biographies, reflect on what they appreciate most about these pastors, and explore how God has used their ministries to encourage spiritual growth. Join them for a conversation about faithful voices, gospel ministry, and the people God has used to help them follow Jesus more closely.

In their fourth and final week, hosts Greg and Nathan tackle one of the hardest questions in our spiritual lives: what do you do when prayer feels empty? From feeling God’s silence to showing up in faith anyway, they explore how prayer shapes us, not by what we feel, but by the act of showing up. With Scripture, honest reflection, and practical encouragement, this episode reminds listeners that even quiet prayers matter, and that we are never truly alone in the journey.

Continuing their series in May, Greg and Nathan are diving into what prayer actually looks like in the middle of everyday life, not polished, perfect prayers, but honest conversations with God during traffic, work, stress, gratitude, and everything in between. In this episode, they unpack how short prayers count, why prayer doesn’t need to feel complicated, and how to build prayer into the rhythm of real life.
Also, Nathan is a little late getting this upload out… but as you’ll hear in the episode, he was in New York City, so we’re giving him a pass this time.

In week two of their series on prayer, Greg and Nathan dive into the messy, honest reality of prayer, why it’s not about saying the “right” words, cleaning yourself up first, or pretending God doesn’t already know what’s in your heart. From frustrated prayers in Psalms to Jesus’ simple model for prayer, this episode explores what happens when we stop performing and start being real with God. Honest questions, raw scripture, and a reminder that prayer may work best when we finally drop the act.

Greg and Nathan kick off their May series on prayer with an honest conversation about why it often feels harder than it’s supposed to, and why that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. From unrealistic expectations and comparison traps to the pressure to perform and the sheer noise of everyday life, they unpack the quiet struggles most people don’t admit. Along the way, they explore what Scripture actually says about prayer, challenge some bad Christian advice, and reframe prayer as something far more relational than rigid. If you’ve ever felt distracted, inadequate, or just plain stuck when you try to pray, this episode will help you breathe a little easier, and maybe start again.

Greg and Nathan are back for Week 3 with a fun theme: Great Idea, Bad Movie. Once again, they’re joined by special guest Nathan Bartlebaugh to break down films that looked like guaranteed hits on paper, but somehow missed the mark.
They kick things off by comparing the original premise to the final product, asking the big question: how do you fumble something that seemed so promising? From there, they dig into exactly where things went sideways, whether it’s messy writing, inconsistent tone, sideways expectation, or pacing that just couldn’t keep up.
To keep things fair, they wrap up by highlighting at least one thing each film actually got right, because even flawed movies usually have a spark of something good.
If you’ve ever walked out of a movie thinking “this should’ve been amazing,” this episode is for you.

Each host brings movies that have stayed with them long after the first watch, unpacking what gives these stories their lasting power. Is it an unforgettable character? A haunting ending? A theme that hits a little too close to home? Along the way, they each highlight one scene from their picks that refuses to let go.
But this isn’t just about great movies, it’s about great storytelling. The conversation turns toward what writers can learn from these films and how to craft stories that truly stick with an audience.
