When was the last time you stubbed your toe and thanked God for the joy of excruciating agony?

Neil hasn’t quite reached that level of happiness and holy enthusiasm. So when people say, “Be true to yourself,” he can’t help but notice the paradox — because being true to yourself and being true to Jesus aren’t always compatible.

In this first episode of Waypoint, Neil O’Boyle digs into the tension between the “real me” and the “Christ-like me.” With warmth, wit, and northern honesty, he explores what genuine authenticity looks like when we stop performing and start aligning our lives with the One who is truly real. And just for fun Neil does it in the rain, sitting on his swinging bench with his dog distracting him throughout.
