What if loving people boldly could actually change the world—starting with your corner of it?

In this special 200th episode of The Collide Podcast, we’re bringing back one of our most beloved conversations with none other than New York Times best-selling author and world-renowned encourager, Bob Goff. Recorded live at our Collide Conference, this Q&A session is packed with laughter, heart, and the kind of perspective shift we all need. If you're craving a deeper purpose, a more joy-filled faith, or just a good reason to keep loving people even when it’s hard—this one’s for you.

Meet Bob Goff

Bob Goff is a New York Times best-selling author (Love Does, Everybody Always, Undistracted), speaker, and founder of Love Does, a nonprofit that operates schools and pursues justice in war-torn countries. He’s a former lawyer turned full-time dreamer and Jesus follower, known for his humor, wisdom, and ability to make big faith feel wildly accessible.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn

• Why Bob chooses to sing only some of the words in worship songs (and what that says about faith)
• The powerful message he would tell his 8-year-old self
• The story behind the Red Sox hat he wears everywhere—even though he’s never been to a game
• The surprising question he plans to ask God when he gets to heaven
• How to use your voice and your words to bring more people in on the joy of following Jesus

How This Episode Will Encourage You

You’ll laugh, reflect, and walk away reminded that loving people well is one of the most powerful ways to reflect Jesus. Bob’s words will reignite your courage to live with boldness, love without limits, and lean into God’s invitations—even if they sound a little wild.
