For so many of us, especially those raised in the church, we’ve been taught to fight, minimize, or suppress our desires. But what if that’s preventing our healing?

In this conversation, we sit down with Jay Stringer to talk about something that impacts every one of us—our desires. In his new book Desire, Jay introduces a different path—one rooted in curiosity instead of shame or control.

We talk about why our struggles aren’t random, how our stories shape our desires, and what it looks like to understand what’s happening beneath the surface instead of just trying to manage behavior. This conversation goes deep into family of origin, core beliefs, trauma, and how even the things we’re most ashamed of can actually point us toward healing. Our hope is that this episode helps you slow down, get curious, and begin to see your story—and your desires—in a completely new way.

What do you do when you’ve prayed, believed… and nothing changes? When the healing doesn’t come, and the pain doesn’t go away? When God feels silent in the place you need Him most.

In this conversation, we sit down with Brenna Blain, a contemporary theologian, best-selling author, and teacher, to talk about the kind of suffering that doesn’t make sense—and the kind of faith that has to be rebuilt in the middle of it. Brenna vulnerably shares her story of abuse, depression, same-sex attraction, and wrestling with a God who didn’t show up the way she thought He would.

We talk about the tension so many of us carry but don’t always say out loud: How do you trust God when He doesn’t fix it? What does it look like to follow Jesus when your reality doesn’t match what you’ve been taught in church? And is it possible that God’s presence in our pain matters more than the outcome we’re praying for?

This episode isn’t about easy answers. It’s about honest faith, wrestling with God, and learning how to invite Him into the places we’d rather hide.

What do you do when you're finally ready to tell the people you love most about betrayal in your marriage? In this deeply personal episode, we invite Clinton’s parents, Greg and Cathy Muñoz, to recount the night they first learned about his sexual addiction and the devastating impact it had on our marriage.

From the shock of hearing their son confess infidelity, to the helplessness of watching their daughter-in-law sit in trauma and grief, Greg and Cathy share honestly about what that moment felt like—fear, confusion, shame, sadness, and the overwhelming question: How do we respond?

They also reflect on what helped them most: choosing silence over quick fixes, offering practical support like childcare, and educating themselves on betrayal trauma and sexual addiction recovery. For Greg, that night became a personal turning point—confronting his own hidden struggles and beginning his own journey of recovery.

This conversation isn’t just our family’s story—it’s a roadmap for parents and in-laws who feel lost in the wake of betrayal. If you’ve wondered how to support your children without causing more harm, how to walk with both the betrayed and the unfaithful spouse, or how to move from shock to compassion, this episode offers hope and tangible steps forward.
