She lived as a man for 14 years and identified as transgender, gay, and Christian. Years later, while sitting next to a lake, God told Lex that he would "wow" her, if she would only trust in His design. The story that follows is remarkable, and a testament to God's love and purpose for men and women.

Is the supernatural power seen in the New Testament still available to us today? Can the human heart truly be satisfied by Jesus alone? What does it mean to be "married to Christ”?

Dr. Mary Healy—a professor of Biblical Theology and a consecrated woman—joins the podcast to share her radical journey of faith. The conversation also dives deep into the charismatic spiritual gifts, such as healing, prophecy, and tongues, which Dr. Healy argues are "normal" for the Christian life rather than extraordinary rarities.

There's a reason why Big Tech Executives don't give their children the very devices and software that they sell. The negative effects are pervasive, extreme, and self-evident--however, there are ways to take back control and leverage technology as a positive tool.

In today's episode, I sit down with Andrew Laubacher of Humanality, an organization dedicated to recovering right relationship with technology to help us be more human. I think this is an essential conversation for everyone, and Andrew proposes 11 keys for flourishing lives without going full Amish.

How did a podcast about the rosary beat out Joe Rogan? What actually is the rosary, and why can all Christians grow spiritually from praying with it? And what does it mean to be a great leader --whether in a church, marriage, or career?

Today I'm sitting down with Fr Mary-Mary, a Franciscan Friar of the Renewal, as we dive into his vocation, the power and purpose of the rosary, handling abusive situations in relationships and church matters, as well as the need to celebrate victories. I think you'll enjoy this candid discussion.
