Audacious Faith

Your destiny usually isn’t shaped by one giant decision, it’s built through the small choices you make every single day.In this episode, Pastor Jay challenges you to recognize the power hidden in seemingly insignificant decisions. The habits you build, the voices you listen to, the people you surround yourself with, and the choices you make when nobody is watching are all moving you somewhere.Small compromises can eventually take you places you never intended to go but small acts of faith, discipline, courage, and obedience can build a life greater than you imagined.Your choices today are creating your tomorrow. Choose wisely.

You’re not always going to feel motivated and that’s okay. The problem comes when your feelings get to decide whether you do what you know needs to be done. In this episode we unpack Colossians 3:23–24 and discover why discipline matters more than motivation. Feelings make great passengers, but terrible drivers. Do what matters even when you don’t feel like it.

What happens when professional success comes at the expense of your peace, purpose, and wholeness?

Charles Anderson knows the pressures of corporate life firsthand. Today, as a believer, coach, and trainer, he helps executives and leaders move beyond simply surviving stress and avoiding burnout to discovering real satisfaction, fulfillment, and a healthier way to succeed.

In this episode, Charles shares practical wisdom from his own journey and powerful insights for anyone who wants to accomplish more without losing themselves in the process.

What’s the excuse that keeps you stuck? No time. No money. Wrong age. Bad timing. Fear. Sometimes our excuses sound completely reasonable and that’s exactly why they’re so dangerous. We look at Proverbs 26 and the “lion in the road” to discover how excuses can keep us moving without ever making progress. Name your lion and take one step today that proves it doesn’t control you.

What you sow today may take time to show up, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t growing. Don’t quit just because you haven’t seen the harvest yet. Stay consistent, keep learning, and pay attention to the clues left by those who have succeeded before you. Keep sowing. Keep growing. Your harvest is coming.

What happens when people with audacious faith say YES to God? Stories become testimonies. Music becomes ministry. And sometimes one act of obedience becomes something far bigger than you ever imagined.

Join Katrina Eason and Stephanie Brandolini, partners in REV Five5 Productions, for a powerful conversation about faith, prayer, creative calling, and the extraordinary story behind Prodigals™ — A Christian Rock Opera, premiering in Las Vegas.

Inspired by Katrina’s remarkable life story, Prodigals is a testimony-driven rock opera rooted in redemption, spiritual warfare, original music, and the truth that no life is beyond the reach of God.

But the story goes far beyond one production.

Stephanie and Katrina share how God brought them together as business and creative partners, what it's meant to step out in faith without knowing exactly how everything would unfold, and what happens when you stop waiting for a safety net and begin walking boldly in the direction God is calling you.

Through God’s leading, Prodigals has become the beginning of something much larger. Under REV Five5 Productions — a faith-driven entertainment company inspired by Revelation 5:5 — Stephanie and Katrina are developing The Vegas Chronicles™, an interconnected story universe spanning live experiences, feature films, television, and music.

And this is only the beginning.

Their mission is to bring powerful stories of testimony and redemption to the stage, screen, music, and beyond — shining light into dark places, giving people hope, pointing audiences toward Christ, and using storytelling to serve the Kingdom and impact lives.

This conversation is about audacious faith in action — prayer, purpose, obedience, redemption, creative calling, and having the courage to say yes when God calls.

Get ready for the REVIVAL.

Can God really transform a life that seems too far gone?

In this powerful episode of the Audacious Faith Podcast, Jay Gauthier sits down with Pastor Angel Hernandez of New Beginnings Community Church in El Monte, California, to hear an unforgettable story of redemption.

But God had a different plan.

Through the love of faithful believers who listened to God’s prompting and refused to give up on him, Angel encountered the life-changing grace of Jesus Christ. Today, the very man who once needed rescuing now leads a thriving recovery ministry and food bank, pouring hope into the lives of people who remind him of who he used to be.
