It’s the end of an era… and the start of something wild.

In this season finale, Justin and Ben get extra dusty as they unpack Genesis 12 and the idea that sometimes, God's call doesn't make sense—especially when you're happy, comfortable, and surrounded by good things. Is leaving your hometown a prerequisite for God's blessing? Do hard choices automatically mean holy choices? And what even is God's will when both options seem good?

Spoiler: This one gets theological, nostalgic, and slightly chaotic.

In This Episode:

• 🚚 Justin is moving back to SoCal (tomorrow!). Ben’s already been—caught a cold, gave a bad report, came back anyway.
• 🧙‍♀️ If you like horoscopes, Ouija boards, and crystals… God might be calling you to plant a church (??)
• 🧬 Genesis 12 gets a deep dive—like actual Hebrew-grammar deep.
• 🎯 Real talk on decision-making: Is God calling you or are you just uncomfortable?
• 🙃 Why we thought the “holy path” was always the miserable one—and how we’re unlearning that.

Dusty Highlights:

• "Lot bad things. Abram good things." (Considered as the episode title, tbh.)
• Ben nerds out on Hebrew verbs and flips the script on how we’ve misunderstood “leave your family.”
• Justin confesses he's putting himself on the altar (again), and opens up about why leaving Hawaii hurts.
• How “this is a sign” culture leads us to over-spiritualize basic decisions—like oatmeal or avocado toast.

Theme Breakdown:

• Comfort isn’t always compromise.
• God’s call isn’t always to leave—it’s often to stay.
• Discerning God’s will might be less about clarity and more about contentment.
• You don't want porn. (Seriously, that metaphor went deep.)

Thanks for sticking with us through Season 3.
We’ll be back with more Dusty goodness when the Lord provides a plane ticket or a podcast miracle.

Until then…

Let’s get dusty.
