  • The Disciples Journal - The One Change That Will Restore Your Walk With God

    What if the real reason you feel distant from God… is something you’ve been overlooking?


    In today’s episode of The Disciples Journal, we’re unpacking Hebrews 12:14 — a verse that doesn’t just talk about holiness, but reveals why so many of us struggle to feel close to God. Darin breaks down how sin doesn’t drive God away from us… but it does distort our view of Him.

    Through a powerful moment of personal conviction, we explore how holiness isn’t about perfection — it’s about intimacy. About seeing God clearly. About giving Him all of who we are.

    Whether you’ve walked with God for years or you’re trying to find your way back, this episode will shift how you see sin, holiness, and the invitation God gives us every day to draw near.


    Reflection Question: What’s one thing in your life right now that might be clouding your view of God?


    Want to go deeper and start building a consistent daily rhythm with God? Join me inside After God’s Heart — a daily devotional podcast that helps you grow in intimacy with Him one day at a time. You can start your 7-day free trial here.

  • The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast - 1KHO 526: Parents Want To Talk About Vaccines More Than All Other Topics Combined | Joel Warsh Gator, Between a Shot and a Hard Place

    Why are the conversations parents care about most the ones they’re told they can’t have? In this powerful and eye-opening episode, board-certified pediatrician Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to unpack one of the most taboo topics in modern parenting: vaccines.

    With decades of experience, a master’s in epidemiology, and a thriving integrative practice, Dr. Warsh lays out a clear, respectful, and research-driven case for why parents deserve full transparency and freedom to ask questions—without being shamed, silenced, or dismissed. His new book, Between a Shot and a Hard Place, is an honest reckoning with what we do and don’t know about the current vaccine schedule—and why that matters more than ever in an age of chronic illness and declining trust in the medical system.

    Ginny Yurich and Dr. Warsh navigate this sensitive terrain with balance and clarity, addressing placebo studies, long-term data gaps, liability loopholes, and the realities families face when trying to make informed choices. This episode doesn’t tell you what to think—it simply invites you into the conversation most parents are already having behind closed doors. Share this one widely. It’s not anti-anything. It’s pro-discussion.

    • Raising Boys & Girls - Episode 290: A Family Conversation with Caleb & Will Chapman (of Colony House) and Julia Chapman & Jillian Chapman

      Colony House is an Indie rock band made up of brothers Will and Caleb Chapman. As well as Scott Mills and Parke Cottrell is playfully self described as land lock surf rock. Their personal genre designation is as much inspired by their hometown of Franklin, TN as their new album the Cannonballers is. The band's music is built on pillars of honesty, accessibility and family.


      The Cannonballers marks the band's 4th full length release. Their 3 previous studio collections take listeners on a journey through stories of loss, grief and heartbreak. While welcoming them into the hope that comes on the other side. 


      The band has performed their songs for world-wide audiences with 2 appearances on both Late Night with Seth Meyers and Conan. As well as the Today Show, VH1’s Morning Buzz and MTV Live. The Cannonballers is an app addition to the band's catalog. Staying true to what Colony House does best and expanding on what their fans have gravitated to for the past decade. Hope and light in the midst of it all.


      No frills, no gemicks just heart, level, rock and roll music. Caleb is joined today by his delightful wife, Julia who is the Director of Operations for Show Hope, an organization we love and respect. Will is joined by his wife the incredibly talented Jullian Edwards whose music we love and recommend often. 


      Prepare to fall head over heels for these four incredible human beings!

          What happens when your life moves so fast that even a bathroom break for your toddler feels impossible? In this honest and hilarious episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich welcomes Rachelle Crawford, author of How to Be Busy, to talk about that breaking-point moment—and everything it revealed about modern motherhood, hurry culture, and the myth of doing it all.

          Together, they explore what it means to live well even when life is full. You’ll learn why the problem isn’t busyness, but the mindset of hurry. You’ll hear about dropped phones, dropped boundaries, mushroom hunting metaphors, Grandma Sally’s wisdom, and how to finally build margin into a chaotic season.
