In this episode, Bobby reflects on six months of pastoring and draws young people into a powerful truth from Psalm 32. God desires to lead His children with the slightest glance, not the painful pressure required for a stubborn horse or mule. Through vivid imagery and practical challenge, you’ll hear how walking closely with God creates a life guided by subtle nudges instead of force — and surrounded by His steadfast love. This is a call to live so near to Him that a simple look is enough to move your heart.

• Adjusting from itinerant evangelism to long-term shepherding
• The spiritual impact of “Awake ’25” and formative influences
• How God leads through intimate relationship rather than force
• The meaning of “I will guide thee with mine eye” in Psalm 32
• The danger of spiritual stubbornness and the imagery of the bit and bridle
• The process of being “broken” and why surrender requires trust
• How God’s hesed — His covenant love — surrounds the yielded believer
• Moving from external pressure to internal responsiveness
• Practical examples of hearing God’s quiet nudges in daily life
• Encouragement for young people to walk closely and obediently with God

• God desires to lead you relationally, not mechanically. Intimacy makes His smallest prompt clear.
• A stubborn heart forces God to use painful circumstances to get your attention; a surrendered heart responds to a whisper.
• Trust is the foundation of surrender. You will not follow God’s subtle leadings unless you believe His way is good.
• God’s lovingkindness surrounds those who walk near Him, protecting and guiding them in every direction.
• Yielding to God daily positions you to live a life marked by His presence, His prompting, and His overflowing love.

In this GoMission episode, Mark Gillmore interviews Canadian church planter Will Esayenko, whose story traces a dramatic path from resisting God’s call to embracing a life of gospel multiplication. Will shares how he ran toward comfort, career, and security—until God used a late-night car accident to shatter his trajectory and bring him back to the call he’d received as a child. Today, he is planting and multiplying churches across the Yellowhead region of Alberta, driven by a simple conviction: when you abide in Christ, He leads you into the work He wants to reproduce.

• Growing up in a Christian home and being saved young
• Receiving a clear call to ministry as a child
• Choosing a career path over surrender in his teen years
• The car accident that exposed the emptiness of living for things
• How Bible school clarified God’s call and burden for Canada
• Restarting a struggling church in Hinton, Alberta
• Planting a second church and embracing multiplication
• Sending out your best people and the cost that comes with it
• Finding identity in Christ instead of success metrics
• Abiding in the Shepherd as the core of guidance and courage
• Training hesitant men for ministry and pushing them forward
• Walking with Christ through uncertainty and loss

• Running from God’s call never brings peace; God has ways of turning you around.
• Real guidance begins with a clean heart and an abiding walk with the Shepherd.
• You don’t need your future perfectly mapped to step into obedience today.
• Multiplication always costs something, but sending is the pathway to greater fruit.
• Your identity must rest in Christ rather than ministry success or comparison.
• God uses surrendered people to reach entire regions, not just individual churches.

Ryan launches a multi-part series, Twisted Passions, addressing homosexuality and same-sex attraction from a biblical framework. He establishes why pastors should clearly preach what Scripture says while also equipping the church to counsel and care for strugglers, and he outlines upcoming topics: Is this sin “different,” are people “born this way,” and how do we raise kids in a sexualized culture? The aim is clarity, compassion, and confident hope in Christ for real victory.

• Why churches must preach plainly on homosexuality (OT & NT texts)
• Common progressive rebuttals and why they don’t hold up biblically (e.g., “love = affirmation,” misuse of John 8)
• Word study: ἀρσενοκοίτης and Paul’s clarity in 1 Cor 6 / 1 Tim 1
• Beyond the pulpit: moving from denunciation to discipleship and counseling in the local church
• Shepherding kids in a perverted culture; building a proactive family plan
• Inviting listener questions/testimonies for future episodes

• Scripture speaks clearly; pastors should, too—without hatred or compromise.
• “Love the sinner; hate the sin” isn’t a cliché—Jesus says, “Go and sin no more.”
• Paul’s terminology intentionally names male-with-male practice; it isn’t vague.
• Churches must pair clear preaching with hands-on help for real people.
• Parents need an intentional, early plan to disciple children amid cultural lies.
