  • Ep. 124 | Back Against The Wall

    What do you do when there’s no way out… when pressure is mounting, fear is loud, and it feels like everything is closing in?

    In this powerful episode of 2717, we unpack how Jesus responded when His back was against the wall — and what that teaches us about faith, trust, peace, and obedience in our own hardest moments. From storms at sea to manipulation, grief, loss, pressure, and timing delays, Jesus modeled how to remain anchored in the Father instead of reacting out of fear.

    We talk about why God is not a God of pressure, how fear and urgency are often tools of the enemy, and why slowing down, praying, and staying rooted in God’s Word protects us from making decisions we’ll regret. This episode also dives into grief, loss, and hope — including how we grieve as believers, trusting God even when outcomes aren’t what we wanted.

    If you’re facing pressure in your marriage, family, health, finances, business, or personal life — this message is for you.

    • How to respond when life corners you

    • Why Jesus stayed calm in the storm

    • The danger of making decisions under pressure

    • Why God’s timing is perfect — even when it hurts

    • Trusting God through grief and loss

    • How faith produces peace before circumstances change

    • Why inner peace determines outward authority

    • Learning to stay steadfast when voices compete for your attention

    When your back is against the wall, you don’t need panic — you need perspective.
    Jesus shows us that trust in the Father comes before deliverance, and peace begins in the heart before it shows up in life.

  • Ep. 123 | Hearing God's Voice

    🎧 Hearing God’s Voice | 2717 Podcast

    How do you know when it’s really God speaking — and not your emotions, other people, or the noise of the world?

    In this episode of 2717, we break down what Scripture teaches about hearing, discerning, and following the voice of God. From aligning what you hear with God’s Word and character, to learning the role of humility, silence, wise counsel, and obedience, this conversation offers practical, biblical clarity for everyday decisions.

    We talk about why God’s voice will always align with Scripture, why He often speaks in a still, quiet way, and how pride, distraction, and people-pleasing can keep us from hearing Him clearly. This episode also dives into the role of the Holy Spirit as our guide, the difference between peacekeeping and peacemaking, and why hearing God’s voice requires courage — not just faith.

    If you’ve ever asked:

    • “How do I know this is God?”

    • “Why does God feel silent?”

    • “What voices should I be listening to?”

    This episode is for you.

  • Ep. 122 | The Names of God

    When you know the names of God, you begin to understand the nature of God.
    And when you understand who He is, it changes how you pray, how you trust, and how you walk through life.

    In this full-length episode of 2717, we take a deep dive into the powerful names of God found throughout Scripture — names that reveal His character as Creator, Provider, Healer, Protector, Peace, and King. These names aren’t titles for theology textbooks; they are anchors for real life.

    Whether you’re facing uncertainty, fear, grief, pressure, or major decisions, this episode reminds us that God reveals Himself by name so we can call on Him with confidence and faith.

    • Why God reveals Himself through His names

    • The meaning and power behind names like Elohim, Yahweh, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Shalom, and more

    • How knowing God’s names transforms prayer from routine to relational

    • Why God’s character never changes — even when circumstances do

    • How calling on God’s name strengthens faith during difficult seasons

    • The connection between God’s names and His promises

    • Why peace, provision, and identity are found in knowing who God is

    • God is not distant — He is personal and present

    • When God says “I AM,” it means He is everything you need

    • Peace isn’t found in control, but in trust

    • Provision often follows obedience

    • God’s name carries authority, power, and comfort

    • Knowing God deeply changes how you live daily

    Many people believe in God — but don’t truly know Him.
    This episode invites you to go deeper, to stop seeing God only through circumstances, and to start seeing Him through His revealed character.

    No matter what season you’re in, the God who revealed His name is the God who walks with you now.

  • Ep. 121 | Foundations for Success

    As we step into 2026, the question isn’t “What do I want to achieve?” — it’s “What foundations am I building my life and leadership on?”

    In this episode of 2717, we break down practical, time-tested principles that lead to real success — not just in business, but in faith, family, health, and purpose. From choosing a word for the year to understanding seasons of pursuit vs. stewardship, this conversation offers clarity for anyone feeling overwhelmed by how fast the world is changing.

    We also dive into why focus, accountability, writing things down, and daily disciplines dramatically increase your chances of winning — spiritually and practically. These aren’t theories. These are tools we’re actively using right now.

  • Ep. 118 | No Man Left Behind

    What does it really mean to live out a “no man left behind” faith?
    In this powerful episode of 2717, Wade, Merritt, and Talyn unpack the biblical call to fight for one another, stand with one another, and refuse to abandon anyone who is hurting, broken, or walking through the battles of life.

    Inspired by the true story of Lt. Hal Moore — and Jesus’ own words about leaving the 99 to rescue the one — this conversation reminds us that the Kingdom of God is built on love, sacrifice, and brotherhood, not isolation.

    • How “No Man Left Behind” reflects the heart of Jesus
