🎯 IN THIS EPISODE:

What does it take to step out of the boat when Jesus calls us into something bigger?

In this episode Tyler, Maron, and special guest Pastor Jeff Unruh dive into the story of Peter walking on water, exploring what it means to dream big, take courageous steps of faith, and (most importantly) get back in the boat after we stumble. We discuss Grace Church's discipleship cohort, the recent high school retreat, and how community helps us stay focused on Jesus when the waves get overwhelming. Plus, hear updates on the Wizard of Oz production and some spirited Halloween candy debates.
