In today's behind-the-scenes conversation, Craig Smith and Colin McFarland dive deep into the end of Psalm 27 and unpack how our unspoken preferences—like avoiding pain or discomfort—can quietly hijack our spiritual direction. They reflect on how unchecked wounds influence our decisions, and how God invites us to clear out the noise so we can follow His better way. Plus, Craig shares a vulnerable look at leadership, growth, and the importance of allowing pain to stretch your capacity. Whether you're leading others, growing in your faith, or trying to heal, this episode will challenge and encourage you.
