The Just Different Podcast

What if the best year of your life has less to do with what you accomplish and more to do with who you become with God? Darin and Jordan talk about setting goals, dreaming with God, and making spiritual growth the foundation for the year you want to build. If you’re ready to stop chasing plans on your own and start believing God for something bigger, this conversation will help you align your vision with Him.

What if some of the lessons that change your faith can only be learned the hard way? Darin and Jordan unpack the biggest things God taught them about putting unhealthy expectations on people, understanding salvation as ongoing transformation, and realizing that grace doesn’t always remove consequences. If you want to grow from what God is teaching you instead of repeating the same patterns, this conversation will give you a different way to look at the lessons hidden inside your year.

Why do so many Christians keep fighting the same battle with lust in secret? Darin and Jordan bring sex, lust, and pornography into the light, contrasting the way culture has distorted sex with God’s design for it and explaining why hiding what you’re struggling with keeps healing out of reach. If you’re tired of pretending the battle isn’t there, this conversation will help you start confronting it honestly and pursuing real freedom.

Are tattoos actually a sin—and what about listening to secular music? Darin and Jordan unpack some of the most common gray-area questions Christians wrestle with while challenging us not to reduce following Jesus to endless debates over what is and isn’t allowed. If you’ve ever wondered how to think biblically about these questions without turning faith into a list of rules, this conversation will help you see the bigger picture.

What do you do when questions about God start shaking the faith you thought was solid? Darin and Jordan talk honestly about doubt, uncertainty, and the moments when God’s character, His Word, or His plan becomes difficult to trust. If you’ve been afraid that questioning God means you’re losing your faith, this conversation will help you face those questions without walking away.

What if the good things God created have quietly become more important to you than the God who gave them? Darin and Jordan explore the difference between loving creation and worshiping the Creator, revealing how easily people, possessions, desires, and success can take God’s place in our hearts. If you want to uncover what truly has your devotion, this conversation will challenge you to put the Creator back at the center of your life.

What do you do when you love God but still feel deeply alone? Darin and Jordan have an honest conversation about loneliness, isolation, and what it looks like to pursue real connection in a season when you feel unseen. If loneliness has been weighing on you, this episode will remind you that you were never meant to carry it by yourself.

 Has your relationship with God started to feel more routine than alive? Darin and Jordan talk about what it means to choose God for yourself and keep your faith from becoming something you simply go through the motions of. If you want to get your fire for God back, this conversation will challenge you to make Him your choice again.

What if your season of singleness isn’t just about waiting for the right person—but becoming ready for the relationship you’re asking God for? Darin and Jordan talk about what it really means to embrace singleness and how to prepare yourself before the person ever arrives. If you’re tired of treating singleness like a holding pattern, this conversation will help you see what God may want to build in you now.

What if the person you keep comparing yourself to was never your competition in the first place? Darin and Jordan talk about comparison, insecurity, staying in your lane, and focusing on the person God has actually called you to become. If someone else’s progress keeps making you question your own, this conversation will help you stop running their race and start growing in yours.
