- Conversation No. 014 w/ Pastor Tyler Weeks | More Than a Pew
The Difference Between Filling Seats and Changing Lives
Some people think church is just about showing up on Sunday, finding a good seat, and listening in. But what if we’ve got it all wrong? In this conversation, I sit down with Pastor Tyler Weeks to talk about what really makes a church thrive—hint: it’s not the attendance count. We dive into faith, leadership, and the tension between vision and community needs. We also unpack why the church was never meant to be a place where people just receive, but a space where they’re equipped to serve, lead, and grow.
From the weight of leadership to the reality of spiritual warfare, from the power of accountability to the role of the Holy Spirit, this conversation is a deep dive into what it truly means to live out faith—not just sit in it.
Join the conversation, challenge your perspective, and ask yourself: are you filling a seat, or changing lives?

2 hr - Conversation No. 013 w/ Nathan Bourne | The Power Of Your Story
Rewrite It, or Relive It.
We all have a story—one that shapes the way we think, lead, and move through the world. But here’s the real question: Are you writing it, or just repeating it?
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own journey as a founder and CEO—the hard lessons, the setbacks, and the moments that forced me to rethink everything. We’re talking resilience, faith, and the uncomfortable truth: you either own your story, or it owns you.
And beyond that? This episode is about you. Your story. Your purpose. The narrative you’ve been living by—and whether it’s taking you where you actually want to go.
Join the conversation. Drop your thoughts, share your story, and let’s grow together.
