Your life is set, your future is planned out, and you're doing what pleases those around you and is safe. Then one day, God calls you to go a completely different direction. It makes absolutely no sense and it's not what you planned for yourself. How do you know it's God and what do you do when it happens? These are the very questions that rushed through Natally's head when her entire world got turned upside down.

Often times, the church focuses on worship and praise as pillars of our life--but what about lamenting and grief? Are worship and lamenting mutually exclusive, or can they coexist? What if there was a way in which they could not only coexist, but actually be the same. Lamenting is a big reality for Christians everywhere. How do we do it well, and how can we make our lament worship?

Have you ever felt stuck in or hurt by religion--trapped in a monotonous never-ending cycle of working for something that seems simply unattainable?

When Sienna was in high school, she told her parents about her decision to leave the church and religion she grew up in. But God wasn't done with her yet. During her first year of college, Sienna met a friend that led her back to God. Upon her new encounter, Sienna didn't find a religion, she found something much deeper--something that was somehow a Holy God and a wonderful friend all at the same time. Sienna found Jesus.

"If I could have God take away my difference, would I?""Does God make mistakes?""Why did God create me this way?"These are questions all people have wrestled with in every season of life, yet it seems like none are willing to talk about them. This week on The Inverted Podcast, John sits down with Marsha Porter to discuss what some might consider a weakness: her Tourette Syndrome. Tune in for a powerful conversation about God's purposeful design and a story that doesn’t run away from the hard questions—it leans into them.

Addiction can feel like an isolating battle, but no one has to fight it alone. In this deeply personal episode of the Inverted Podcast, PJ sits down with Will, who shares his journey through addiction, homelessness, and the struggles of broken trust. His story is a testament to the power of redemption, the importance of finding support, and the life-changing impact of faith.

Will opens up about his childhood, the pain of losing his father, and how addiction became a way to escape. He talks about life on the streets, the people who showed him kindness, and the moments that led him to seek change. His turning point came when he realized he couldn’t keep living the same way—he needed something greater. Through faith, community, and the willingness to take that first step, Will found healing and a new purpose.

No matter how dark life gets, there are people who care—whether it’s a friend, a recovery group, or a faith community. Finding the right resources and surrounding yourself with people who genuinely want to help can make all the difference. Will’s journey reminds us that healing is possible, and that even in the hardest moments, hope is never out of reach.

If you or someone you know is struggling, don’t hesitate to seek help. There are people ready to walk alongside you.

In this episode of Inverted, PJ and Christi dive deep into the powerful topic of spiritual gifts—what they are, how they function, and why they matter in your walk with God. Sparked by a recent Q&A session at TROC, this conversation explores how each person is uniquely designed for God’s purpose and how embracing your gifts leads to confidence in faith.

From prophecy to faith, from leadership to mercy—every gift has a role in glorifying God and serving others. But how do you know what your gift is? Can you have more than one? And are all the gifts still active today? PJ and Christi tackle these big questions and share real-life experiences of seeing God move in miraculous ways.
