Welcome to the very first episode of Here We Go! Pastors (and friends) Alan Hannah and Spencer Sweeting launch the podcast with a candid conversation about faith, culture, and everything in between.

This isn’t a football podcast (sorry, Steelers fans). Instead, it’s a space for grace-filled discussions about what it means to follow Jesus in the messy overlap of church and culture.

In this episode:

• The story behind the name Here We Go

• Alan & Spencer’s ministry journeys (worship leading, church planting, pastoring)

• When Christians overreact to culture—from comic books to Dungeons & Dragons

• What it means to live “in the world but not of it”

• Why unity matters more than personal preference

Plus: what’s in their headphones and a preview of Season 1 guests—including Steelers chaplain Kent Chevalier and Carnegie Mellon professor Dr. Larry Heimann.
