What if your greatest legacy isn’t what you leave behind—but what you leave inside someone else?

One seed of encouragement. One opportunity. One act of generosity. One person willing to say, “I believe in you.” What could God do with something that small?

In Episode 7 of Mission: ReMission, David Leister explores the extraordinary power of pouring into another person—and how one faithful investment can ripple through families, communities, nations, and even generations.

Through the biblical story of Barnabas, who saw a future in Saul when others only saw his past and gave John Mark another chance after failure, we discover a powerful Kingdom principle: you don’t have to control the harvest. You simply have to be willing to plant.

David also takes you to Liberia, where seeds planted decades ago into children like a young Luther Tarpeh have produced fruit no one could have predicted—and introduces the opportunity to plant into a new generation of children through education, nourishment, discipleship, and hope.

Maybe you don’t have a fortune to give. That’s okay. Generosity is bigger than money. You have time. Encouragement. Wisdom. Prayer. Opportunity. Influence. Your story. Your presence.

The question is:

What has God placed in your hand—and whose life could be different because you were willing to give it?

This episode will challenge you to stop waiting until you have “more,” find your one, and start planting today.

Because you may never see how far one seed travels.

Plant it anyway. God handles the harvest.

What if the reason you haven’t seen the harvest yet isn’t because God isn’t working—but because the seed is still growing beneath the surface?

We live in an impatient world. We want the prayer answered, the breakthrough now, the dream fulfilled, the pain gone. And when nothing seems to be happening, it’s tempting to get anxious, question God, or dig up the very seed He’s asking us to trust.

But Jesus taught us that the Word of God is like a seed. Plant it in the fertile soil of your heart, nurture it, protect it—and then let the seed settle.

In this episode of Mission: ReMission, David explores the extraordinary power hidden inside a tiny seed and what it teaches us about spiritual growth. Before there is fruit, there are roots. Before there is a harvest, there is often a long season when God is doing His deepest work where nobody can see it.

Maybe you’ve been wondering why you aren’t further along. Maybe you’ve prayed, believed, planted God’s promises in your heart—and you’re still waiting.

Don’t confuse waiting with wasting. And don’t mistake God’s process for God’s absence.

Plant one seed of truth. Then ten. Then a hundred. Then a thousand. Keep filling the soil of your heart with God’s Word, trust the Holy Spirit with the growth, and leave the timing of the harvest in the hands of the Gardener.

You may discover that while you were anxiously looking for fruit, God was quietly growing roots strong enough to carry the harvest that’s coming.

Plant the Word. Protect the soil. Trust the Gardener. Give it time.

And let the seed settle.

Truth in. Lies out. Your story isn’t over.

Receive the Word. Renew your mind. Resist the lie. Take the step. Possess the promise.

What if God actually meant what He said about you?

Not just the comfortable parts. The seemingly impossible promises, too. What if God really is for you? What if nothing you face can separate you from His love? What if the storms, setbacks, failures and disappointments of your life don’t get the final word?

We’re surrounded by voices telling us what to believe about ourselves, our circumstances and our future. But there is one voice that has never needed to revise His promises, issue a correction, or walk back His Word.

In this episode of Mission: ReMission, David asks a question that could radically change the way you see your life: What if God meant it?

We’ll talk about what happens when circumstances seem to contradict what God has said, why Jesus answered the enemy with “It is written,” and how the truth of Romans 8 can become more than a verse you know—it can become a reality you live.

And yes, somewhere along the way, Rocky, Apollo Creed, Clubber Lang, an undersized tank top and some questionable tube socks make an appearance.

Because sometimes you need a little spiritual Eye of the Tiger.

If you’ve been discouraged, knocked down, questioning your future—or simply wondering whether the promises of Scripture really apply to you—this episode is for you.

God meant it. He meant it for you. And your circumstances don’t get to rewrite what He has already said.

Truth in. Lies out. Your story isn’t over.

Receive the Word. Renew your mind. Resist the lie. Take the step. Possess the promise.

Who are you becoming?

Whether you realize it or not, every thought you entertain, every voice you believe, every habit you repeat, and every decision you make is shaping the person you are becoming.

In this powerful episode of Mission: ReMission, David Leister explores how our past wounds, failures, fears, and daily choices influence our identity—and how Jesus offers something greater: real transformation.

Through the biblical story of Simon becoming Peter, you’ll discover that failure does not have to define your future. Peter was impulsive, afraid, and deeply ashamed after denying Jesus, yet Christ restored him, recommissioned him, and continued calling him toward the man he was created to become.

You’ll learn how renewing your mind with God’s Word can help you break free from shame, confront destructive patterns, recover your identity in Christ, and make choices that lead toward spiritual growth, healing, purpose, and Christlike character.

Your past may explain some of your wounds, but it does not have the authority to determine your future.

The question is not whether you are becoming someone.

The question is: Who are you becoming—and what decision will you make today that agrees with the person Christ is calling you to become?
