The RELEVANT Podcast

Today we're joined by pastor and author Chad Veach to talk about how implementing practical spiritual disciplines into our lives can really help us cut out the distractions and be more open to what God has for us. Plus, well, if we were to list the topics that the guys get into, you wouldn't believe us. Stuff like Steven Seagal's big con, horse sports, the new Tiger Woods of darts, people in Ft. Lauderdale swimming in jeans -- it's like a Mad Lib of divergent topics. You've been warned. And at the end of the show, we have the Ultimate Spring Break Trivia Showdown!

Today we're joined by Passion's Kristian Stanfill to debut their new album recorded at the massive Passion Conference a couple of months ago. Also, the cast somehow gets into whale autopsies, Virginia Beach crime shenanigans, and then we have RELEVANT Buzz covering the unprecedented Liberty University situation, celebs using their platforms for good, and the creepy Willy Wonky movie that's coming. Plus, your feedback at the end (and a lot more callbacks to the VB whale team situation). 

Today we're joined by Max Ranier from indie folk band Wilderado. We talk about his faith journey — and of course how it influenced their upcoming sophomore album. But as good as that convo is, if there's one moment that's going to be talked about from this episode, it's this: Church prom. Yes, the cast brings the week's Slices — like the Wendy's backlash, government spying and the Florida Man games — and at the end we have Hot Takes, but all you're going to talk about is Emily's formative memories becoming the queen of church prom. Seriously, this whole episode is about church prom.

Today we're joined by author and speaker John Bevere to talk about how making simple changes in our spiritual life can lead to major growth. Plus, the cast brings the week's RELEVANT Buzz, Jesse sees some weird stuff go down outside his window and at the end we have your best prank feedback.

Today we're joined by Dallon Weekes from indie rock band I Don’t Know How But They Found Me. Plus, Derek and Marty debut their new single, the cast brings Slices ranging from Gen Z's favorite restaurants (Jesse spends a lot of time advocating for Outback), to a guy who programmed AI to use dating apps for him and it ended up finding him a wife, and more. And at the end we have a new game -- Fact or Fiction News Roundup!

Today we're joined by pastor and author John Mark Comer to discuss what becoming a disciple of Jesus really looks like. Plus, the mundane NBA All-Star weekend inspired Jesse to conceive an epic new reality competition show, RELEVANT Buzz highlights the state of faith in entertainment, Cory Asbury's vulnerable confession, and Vampire Weekend's unusual concert plans. Plus at the end we have your feedback!

Today we're joined by one of the most famous worship voices in the world, TAYA. We talk about her new single, new sound and new season she's in. Plus, the cast covers everything from a crazy financial scam to space nukes to a new study that proves guys are wimps compared to women when it comes to getting sick (no surprise). And at the end, don't miss a new edition of Sizzling Hot Takes!

Today we're joined by worship artist Josh Baldwin, who previews his upcoming album for us. Plus, RELEVANT Buzz covers a fascinating story of a formative experience actor Mark Ruffalo had at a Jimmy Swaggart service when he was a kid, a new study about race relations in America and the happiness of singles vs. married people. And yes, we spend way too much time online shopping for terrible shirts.

Today we're joined by author Sarah Bessey, who talks to us about her new book on deconstruction — and how we can go through that process in a healthy, faith-filled way. Plus, the crew talks Super Bowl thoughts, Swifties (of course), Guinness records, Baptists winning the lottery and a real-life Bruce Wayne. Plus at the end we have a Valentine's game you don't want to miss -- Worship or WOOship?

Today we're joined by a worship collective that's exploding right now — Seattle-based One Voice. You don't want to miss their story. Plus, the cast talks everything from celebrity airport encounters to '90s alt rock. We have the week's RELEVANT Buzz covering the Jesus Super Bowl commercials, the new Apple Vision Pro, Drew Holcomb's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel and more. And at the end, we have your feedback!
