I sit with Christian Actor and Singer/songwriter Jared Withrow to talk about his journey of faith and we talk a lot about the topic of fear. As Christians are we allowing fear to control our lives? Jared has some great insight on this topic and I pray this conversation helps you through any fear you might be struggling with today.

TRIGGER WARNING/DISCLAIMER - Suicide and Drug Use are in this episode.

Kicking off the first episode of the road to reconstruction, I talk to Josh Young and dive into his experience with the church, youth leaders, and beliefs he was taught growing up and how he stepped away from the church. Josh and I had a great conversation about everything from faith to church experiences and much more. Even though my heart for this podcast is for reconstruction, I wanted to share this as a first episode to show that those who have deconstructed, walked away from the church, etc. are accepted, loved, and welcomed in this ministry and I yearn to hear their voices and their beliefs. My prayer is that God will use me throughout conversations to help people have a healthier view of Jesus.  This episode was shot in January of 2023 and was the first podcast I ever did. These episodes are streaming live on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Subscribe to the Patreon for early access and extended cuts of the podcast.
