In this raw and powerful episode, I sat down with EJ Rojas, a man who once wore the uniform of the military but carried invisible wounds that nearly cost him everything.

Driven by high standards and a relentless inner critic, EJ battled deep disappointment in himself—even when he gave life his absolute best. Eventually, the weight of PTSD, depression, and alcoholism brought him to the edge. Ready to give up, he reached a breaking point.

But God wasn’t done with him yet.

Through divine intervention, EJ was saved from suicide and the grip of alcohol. In this episode, he shares how “alcohol is a thief,” how pride became his enemy, and how God's grace “shook him into obedience.” EJ's story is one of redemption, truth, and the radical love of a God who relentlessly pursues His children.

With his second chance, he is sharing the gospel and serving men through prison ministry.

If you're struggling with PTSD, suicidal thoughts, or feel trapped anywhere along the alcohol spectrum—please know you're not alone. Reach out. There are counselors, pastors, and communities who are equipped to walk with you through the pain.

Chris and Katie are the first couple to share their story on the pod! They talk about Chris’ health journey that has had lasting effects on his body and their family. We talk about marriage, faithfulness and the theology of suffering.

Chris is passionate about communicating that God is easy to talk to & always there for us. God wants to hear what we have to say and we can talk to Him, just like we can talk to a friend. God is big enough to handle our questions.

He reiterates that walking in community is the only way. We need people to hold us up and point us toward Christ. We need to invest in those around us and can’t do this walk alone.

Kylie is relatable and hilarious. Shes a mom, nurse, disciple-maker and wife to a pastor. She encourages us to embrace our season & work hard while we’re in it. Make it count!

We talk about discipleship and how those relationships have been pivotal for her. What’s the difference between mentorship and discipleship? How do I start a discipleship relationship?

At the end she references two books by Kristen Hannah; “The Great Alone” and “Four Winds.”
