In this vulnerable and wide-ranging episode, Pastor James opens up about his journey from a selfish lifestyle and federal prison to discovering his true calling. He shares the hard lesson learned from a past "transactional" marriage where he tried to cover up a mistake rather than repent, leading to a quick annulment.

"Ask the Pastor" panel featuring Carin, Oge, and Talonna, where they discuss the difference between Purpose (the destination), Vision (the roadmap), and Gift (the transportation). Pastor James explains why he turned down a "good" opportunity to be the chaplain for the Golden State Warriors because "good" is often the enemy of the "God thing". Finally, the group dives into relationship dynamics, discussing why couples must be "Root People, not Fruit People" to identify the deep-seated issues that mutate like a virus if left unchecked.
