When you open your Bible, do you actually know what to do next, or are you just flipping to a random page and hoping it clicks? Most people want to study the Word, but they've never been given a clear, repeatable system to understand what the text is actually saying. In this premiere episode, I'm breaking down a straightforward 5-step Bible study method designed to take away the confusion and help you see the truth for yourself.

The first official TRACE episode is movingto Wednesday June 3rd. Want to make surethe experience is right. See you then.

Over the last two years I went on a journey to find my faith for myself. Not through someone else's revelation. Straight to the source. And what came out of that season changed everything — including this show.

Disciples Journal is becoming TRACE. A five-step Bible investigation method built around one idea: most people read the Bible. TRACE teaches you to investigate it.

Monday June 1st. First official episode. Everything changes.

Thank you.

Why does trusting God feel so difficult even when we believe He is faithful?

In this episode I look at Exodus 34:6 where God describes Himself as abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. We explore what that means in the original Hebrew and why understanding God’s character not our performance is what actually builds trust.

Have you ever wondered, “What am I really here for?” I used to think purpose and significance were reserved for pastors, leaders, or people who seemed “closer to God.” But Genesis 1:26-28 completely changed the way I see myself and you.

In this episode of The Disciples Journal, I’m breaking down how God made every single person in His image and called us all to represent Him in our everyday lives. I share what it truly means to walk in authority, exercise dominion, and live out your purpose—no matter who you are, where you’re from, or what your past looks like.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, insignificant, or unsure about your calling, this episode will help you see what God says about your value, your role, and your purpose in the world.

I promise—this isn’t about titles, positions, or status. It’s about stepping into the life God made you for.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “Why do I still feel empty when everything seems fine?”

I know that feeling well. For a long time, I chased things that promised to fill me success, approval, comfort, distraction but no matter what I reached for, it never lasted. The truth is, that emptiness isn’t random. It’s what happens when we’re disconnected from the very Source of life itself.

In this episode, I want to help you see why that emptiness exists and how the gospel is actually the answer to it.

If you’ve ever felt numb, tired of going through the motions, or just ready to feel alive again, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about what you’re really missing and how to find life again in Him.
