Welcome to the Beyond Sundays Podcast—BK takeover edition! Host June Saunders kicks off our 4-week Advent Together series as we light the Candle of Hope and talk about what hope really looks like in everyday life. Evangelina (“Vangie”) Figueiras and her daughter Hadassah join us to share how hope often looks like believing, waiting, and trusting God—especially when the answer doesn’t come the way we expected. Vangie opens up about her own season of waiting for a breakthrough in her career, walking through divorce, and praying for financial provision. Her story reminds us that we’re all waiting for something, and Jesus meets us right in that place. This episode also introduces a simple family tradition—the Hope Jar—a way to write down what we’re praying and hoping for, then look back on God’s faithfulness on Christmas Day. As we begin this series, we’re reminded: Jesus is our hope in every season of waiting.

In this week’s episode, Mason Kerby, Zach New, and Karson Grigsby dive into The Cage of Fear — one of the most common traps that keeps us from fully living out the purpose God has for us. The enemy uses fear and doubt to suffocate purpose — fear of failure, fear of man, fear of the future, fear of getting it wrong, or even fear that we have somehow missed our purpose. But God hasn’t called us to live in fear. He’s called us to live free and to live led. In this honest and hope-filled conversation, the guys talk about what it means to live life in step with the Holy Spirit — trusting that He who began a good work will carry it to completion.

In this week’s Beyond Sundays Podcast, we’re diving into Week 6 of the Wild Goose Chase series — The Cage of Failure. We all have moments when we’ve fallen short, missed the mark, or felt like we blew it completely. But what if failure isn’t final? What if it’s actually one of God’s greatest tools for shaping our faith, our character, and our calling? Join Ben Johnson and Zach Vassar as they talk honestly about lessons learned from failure — how God can use even our biggest mistakes for redirection, growth, and future influence. You’ll hear stories of perspective shifts, identity in Christ beyond success or failure, and courage to try again when fear says quit. You’re not meant to live defeated; you’re meant to live led.
