Built By Him

In this episode of Built by Him, we sit down with brothers Brock and Boston to talk about discipleship in the digital age. Known for their massive influence online, they open up about what it really means to live their faith publicly—through the highs, the pressure, and the responsibility that comes with being seen.

We dive into their mission experiences, how those moments shaped who they are today, and the role faith plays in everything they do. This conversation goes beyond social media and into something deeper: choosing Christ daily, no matter who’s watching.

A lot of people feel like being a good person should be enough… so why does church matter? In this episode, we get real about that question. We talk about the role of church in building community, showing our love for God, and taking time each week to remember Jesus Christ through the sacrament. If you’ve ever struggled to see the point of going, this one’s for you.

In this episode, we hear from Builders who have already experienced an HXP trip as they share what they wish they knew before they left. They talk about how to prepare, what they would do differently, and the advice they would give to someone about to have the same life-changing experience.

In this episode, we sit down with coach, public speaker, and HXP trip leader Brayden Black to talk about identity, self-improvement, and learning to see ourselves the way God sees us. Brayden shares powerful thoughts on self worth, the role of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice, and how understanding our divine identity can change the way we approach growth, faith, and our relationship with God.

In this episode, Todd Sylvester shares his powerful conversion story, from battling drug and alcohol addiction and nearly ending his life to discovering a God who never gave up on him. He opens up about the moment prayer became real, the lesson about prayer that changed his life, and how unplugging from the noise of the world is critical to hear God’s voice. His message is clear: you are never too far gone, you have God’s DNA within you and there is always a way back. If you’ve ever felt hopeless, numb, stuck, or beyond saving, this conversation is for you.

The king of pushing past comfort zones, Kade Peterson, joins the conversation to unpack one of the biggest questions teens wrestle with: How do I feel confident when I’m still figuring out who I am? From learning to care less about the noise around you and more about what God thinks, to why choosing discomfort can unlock unexpected joy, this episode is real, empowering, and full of perspective you didn’t know you needed.

Are you doing the daily gospel habits but not feeling anything? In this episode, we explore what it really means to stop loving the checklist and start loving the God the checklist points to. How do you learn to genuinely love the scriptures, the temple, and prayer because of who they lead you to? This conversation is about shifting your focus from habits to heart and discovering a deeper relationship with God that transforms everything.

Episode 2 is all about God’s love and the different ways we feel and recognize it in our lives. We share personal experiences, talk about moments when we’ve felt close to Him, and also the times we’ve struggled to feel worthy of that love. This conversation is a reminder that His love is constant, personal, and not something we have to earn.
