Crushing Your 20s With Advice Nobody Mentions | Noah Herrin


Listen Later

Most of us spend our twenties feeling a massive amount of pressure to be someone or change the world, but we often end up feeling more crushed than crushing it. In this conversation, Grant sits down with his friend and Pastor of Way Noah Herrin to talk about what it actually looks like to lead well in your twenties and how to move from chasing a platform to being formed by the presence of God. Noah shares some hilariously humbling stories (including the time he told 3,000 students to make some love for Jesus) and dives deep into why our biggest failures are often the very things God uses to shape us into who He's called us to be. They also tackle the George Bailey approach to leadership: learning to be a local missionary in your own backyard rather than waiting for a global stage. In this episode, they discuss: ✅ The Romans 8:28 Reality: Why God's "good" is more about your character than your comfort. ✅ Defining Your World: How to win on your local basketball court before you try to win the world. ✅ The Discipline Gap: Why the boring, daily habits are the real separators for next-gen leaders. ✅ Taking Big Risks: Why your 20s are the season to fail forward and take the risks others are too afraid to try.
