I can’t believe it happened. All 5 of us on one episode. It’s never happened. And all it took was having my kids locked inside a car with their mom and dad for 30 minutes driving through the tiny streets of a small town in Italy.

Today on the podcast we talk about our trip to Italy and then answer your questions on current international travel and what it’s like.

I hope you enjoy this lighthearted episode!

Thanks to your show sponsors as well!!!

Every so often I feel like I’m getting things done. Like I’m accomplishing things in life. And then I meet a mayor of a city of 300,000 at 26 years old.

OK. OK. Yes I’m getting things done… but Michael D. Tubbs is making me feel all sorts of lazy!

In all seriousness Michael’s journey from nothing to everything is truly inspiring and I think you are going to love this convo with him.

At the age of 26, Michael D. Tubbs became the youngest Mayor of any major city in American history. As Mayor, Tubbs was lauded for his leadership and innovation. Under his stewardship, Stockton was named an “All-America City” in 2017 and 2018, saw a 40% drop in homicides in 2018 and 2019, led the state of California in the decline of officer involved shootings in 2019, was named the second most fiscally healthy city in California and one of the top most fiscally healthy cities in the nation.

Before I was Derek’s friend…

I was Derek’s fan.

I WAS INFATUATED WITH CAEDMON’S CALL and was certain they would ask me to be a member of their ever-growing band one day. The day never came BUT the day did come when Derek and I would end up being friends.

I’ve walked alongside Derek in various levels as he has walked a really public deconstruction of what he believes about Jesus, God, and Christendom.

This is a conversation between a friend who is a bible believing, Holy Spirit-filled, Jesus-following, church-going Christian, and a friend who isn’t most of those things.

This isn’t a conversation where we try and convince each other of our things.

This is a conversation where I ask Derek to help 2 groups of people.

Help those who are deconstructing feel less alone…

And help those of us who are not feel less afraid.

This conversation is so so helpful.

And what I’m even more excited about is how you will fall in love with my friend Derek.

The other week I asked my wife Heather on my Instastory…”Hey babe! What are some things that we disagree on???” She answered without thinking…

“Politics, Parenting, and the Vaccine…”

And kept cooking dinner without skipping a beat. I kept on with the Instastory without skipping a beat. A few minutes later the DMs were FLOODED with my people asking how it was possible...

And so today we answer that question... along with a few others you asked like…

And so many more questions…

But we spend a bulk of this on how to navigate these deep divisions people are walking through in their relationships when it comes to politics ect…

I think it’s gonna be really helpful and hopeful for you!!!

My dad has advance stage dementia. He can’t carry on a conversation with you for longer than 5 seconds. He no longer knows my wife. He no longer knows his grandchildren. He no longer really remembers anything about his life…

But you know what?

He is still… Him.

I catch glimpses of who he is.

There are tiny cracks into his soul that show up like magic every once and a while.

But I totally had forgotten about this treasure of a recording I had.

When I started noticing his memory problem…

I called him and recorded his story.

This conversation is 4 years old…

And it’s mind blowing how he could never have this conversation now.

But I’m so glad I had it with him then.

So please enjoy this conversation that may be the most inspiring conversation you have heard in a long time…

From my dad, who has dementia…

But dementia doesn’t have him…

If you follow me on instagram you see that we are in a season where our tiny house is constantly filled with teenagers we know and love as well as teenagers we don’t know. :)

It’s a zoo around here and we love it.

Heather and I hoped and prayed that our home would be “The House”. You know the one? The house that all the kids would hang out at?

And here we have found ourselves as THE HOUSE.

We don’t have a big house.

We don’t have a fancy house.

But in todays episode we ask the kids, why our house?

That’s right. The teenagers that take over our home on a nightly basis sit down with me and spill some good nuggets…

What has made this house the house that is at the center of their friend group universe?

This is such an insightful and timely conversation that I’m sure you will enjoy…

Kids or no kids…

It will help you create a culture of welcome in your home…

I honestly can’t believe how fortunate we are to hear these life-changing words from my friend Donald Miller. This podcast episode literally has the potential to change so many lives out there. That is not clickbait. That is real. Don’s coaching us on how to live as the hero of our story today and leaves nothing on the cutting room floor.

I have known Don for a long time and this may be his most important work yet. Please let him know how much this means to him and as always thank you for sharing the show!

It’s been a hot minute since it was just you and I. And I’ve missed you!!!

Listen I LOVE our guests. I love learning from their POV, but every once in a while I love to just unload some learnings that the world has been showing me and today I unpack some learnings on how to truly be a better ally towards people groups that your heart aligns with.

We go through 5 steps…

This isn’t an exhaustive list…

But I thin kit will help get you on the right track to make 2022 a year that we see those who have been oppressed or ignored finally be given a runway towards true equality.

And you are the key to unlocking that gift!

This is a pen and paper podcast fam. Like seriously. Go grab it. The amount of nuggets and morals of wisdom that Dante Stewart drops for the human Hope Fam is ridiculous. Dante is a husband, father, football player, service member spouse, preacher, racial reconciliator (did I just make up a word?) But most importantly he is a hope dealer. He comes hard in this episode and gives us a lot to work on and a lot of hope when it comes to what it means to continue to fight for the equal treatment of everybody in America.

Today's show will end up being a favorite for years to come.

Keep up with Dante https://www.instagram.com/stewartdantec/ or
