The Just Different Podcast

How do you move forward when your heart is still attached to what ended? Darin and Jordan talk honestly about heartbreak, the grief that comes with losing a relationship, and what healing can look like when you bring the pain to God instead of letting it define you. If you're trying to let go without becoming bitter or hopeless, this conversation will help you start healing with faith.

What if the people around you are one of the biggest reasons your faith is growing—or staying stuck? Darin and Jordan sit down with friends Emy Moore and Seth Weeks to talk about growing in Christ, learning from personal experience, and building a circle that shares both your beliefs and your level of faith. If you want to go deeper with God, this conversation will challenge you to stop trying to grow alone and become intentional about who grows with you.

What if your desire to influence people for God slowly turns into a need for people to approve of you? Darin and Jordan sit down with Jon and Eric Diggs to talk about ministry, Christian influence, and keeping your heart centered on God when a platform puts other eyes on you. If you want your calling to stay about God instead of attention, this conversation will challenge who you’re really performing for.

Why do you keep ending up back in the same sin after promising yourself—and God—that this time would be different? Darin and Jordan talk about the believer’s authority, the patterns that keep repetitive sin alive, and what it takes to stop living in the same cycle. If you’re tired of confessing the same thing without seeing real change, this conversation will point you toward freedom.

Does needing therapy mean your faith isn’t strong enough? Darin and Jordan confront the shame Christians can feel around mental health and explain why struggling or getting professional help does not make you a second-class believer. If you’ve ever felt guilty for needing help beyond “just pray more,” this conversation is for you.

What if the version of love culture taught you isn’t the kind of love God is talking about at all? Darin and Jordan unpack the biblical definition of love and why feelings, attraction, and cultural messages can’t be the final authority for how Christians love people. If you want to understand what real love looks like through God’s eyes, this conversation will reset the definition.

What happens when you stop seeing the finished product and hear the story behind how it actually began? In this 25th-episode Q&A, Darin and Jordan open up about starting the podcast, what Just Different really means, and some of the questions listeners have wanted answered along the way. If you’ve ever wondered what shaped the mission behind the show, this episode pulls back the curtain.

What if the grace you’re grateful God gave you is the same grace He’s asking you to extend to someone difficult? Darin and Jordan talk about what it really means to love people like Jesus and why Christians don’t get to be selective about who deserves compassion. If hurt, frustration, or judgment has made someone hard for you to love, this conversation will challenge the way you see them.

Could you actually explain why you believe what you believe if someone challenged your faith today? Darin and Jordan confront the danger of building your Christianity on clips, quotes, and secondhand knowledge instead of growing in real wisdom and understanding. If you want a faith that can survive hard questions, this conversation will challenge you to go deeper than Christian content.

What if the people closest to you are quietly deciding where your life is headed? Darin and Jordan talk about the power of community, the influence of your inner circle, and why the relationships around you can either pull you toward God’s purpose or away from it. If you want to grow into who God is calling you to be, this conversation will make you look differently at who gets close access to your life.
