  • Merry CHRISTmas! ✞

    As we celebrate this Christmas season, let’s remember that it’s all about Jesus—the greatest gift of all. Whether through family traditions, acts of kindness, or quiet moments of reflection, let’s keep our focus on Christ, the reason for the season.


    I’ll leave you with Luke 2:10-11, where the angel declares to the shepherds:

    ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is the Messiah, the Lord.’


    This Christmas, may the joy of our Savior’s birth fill your hearts and homes. Let’s live in that joy and carry the light of Christ to the world around us. Thank you for joining me today, and until next time, may the peace and love of Jesus be with you!

  • Pt 2: Darrin Gray + Ministry of Availability

    Join us on the Ask About My Faith podcast as we sit down with Darrin Gray, a dynamic leader in pro sports, ministry, and media. Known for his work alongside Tony Dungy, Darrin has dedicated his life to uniting NFL players, coaches, and fans in prayer and sharing the gospel. From his early career in media to his current ministry initiatives, Darrin's passion for faith-filled leadership shines.

    In part one, Darrin shares his powerful faith journey, touching on his partnership with Tony Dungy, his transition from media to ministry, and his heartfelt dedication to investing in fathers and families through initiatives like All Pro Dad. Note: This episode includes discussions about suicide.

    In part two, Darrin dives into the "ministry of availability," encouraging us to be open to God's call—even in unexpected moments. He challenges listeners to ask deeper, more meaningful questions and to embrace opportunities for faith conversations, whether at work, lunch, or beyond.

    Here are some better questions than "how are you?"

    • what was it like to grow up at age 11?
    • what is your favorite book of the bible?
    • what did you listen to on the ride to meet me?
    • whats the most value character trait with a friend of the same sex?
    • what societal issue do you feel uniquely burdoned for?
    • what would you rather attend? - broadway musical, professional sporting event or a concert

    With themes of prayer, discipleship, and leading with gentleness and respect, Darrin's story is both inspiring and practical, offering valuable insights for anyone seeking to share their faith boldly.

    Let’s explore how living “on assignment” for God can transform lives!

  • BONUS: Divine Interruptions

    In this special bonus episode of the Ask About My Faith podcast, we share a story that highlights how God can use us, even in the most unexpected situations. Brian Schulenburg, Wooddale Church’s Outreach Pastor, recounts a powerful encounter on a flight, where he felt prompted to connect with a fellow passenger through prayer. Even while feeling physically unwell, Brian chose to follow God’s leading, which opened the door for a profound conversation about faith and healing.

    Brian’s story is an inspiring reminder that God is intentional in orchestrating opportunities for us to be His hands and voice—even in small, seemingly inconvenient moments. We hope his experience inspires you to strike up faith conversations wherever you are: on a plane, in line at the grocery store, or while waiting for your food order. Join us as we dive into this story of obedience, courage, and connection, and see how sharing faith can impact lives in surprising ways.
