In this episode of The One Big Thing, I had the privilege of sitting down with former MLB pitcher and current high school coach Justin Masterson. You might know him from his days on the mound with the Red Sox, but what really struck me in our conversation was his heart for people and his deep insights on emotional maturity.

We talked about what it means to grow—not just as a leader or athlete, but as a human being. Justin shared how his definition of maturity has evolved into the ability to handle emotions well, especially in the face of hardship. Whether he's coaching teenagers, navigating marriage, or serving in his community, he’s learned that staying relational and grounded is key.

In this episode, we dive into:

• The emotional weight athletes carry behind the scenes
• How to lead with empathy and humility in high-pressure environments
• Practical tools like the “CAKE” acronym and quieting techniques to regulate emotions
• Why identity and belonging are essential for real transformation
• Honest stories of failure, forgiveness, and fatherhood

I even share a personal story about a moment I blew it as a dad—and what it taught me about grace, humility, and the power of saying “I’m sorry.”

If you’re someone who wants to grow in emotional intelligence, lead with more compassion, or just be a better version of yourself, this episode is for you. We’re not aiming for perfection—just progress.

In this episode of The One Big Thing, I sit down with my friend Paul Hassell for one of the deepest and most challenging conversations I’ve had on this show. We talk honestly about discipleship — not as a church buzzword or an occasional coffee meeting, but as a way of life that actually shapes how we follow Jesus.

Paul shares how being truly discipled later in life changed everything for him, and why many believers feel like something is missing in their faith journey. We challenge the idea of comfortable Christianity and talk about what it means to live with intentionality, risk, and obedience — learning to represent Jesus in the world the way He intended.

This conversation stirred me personally. If you’ve ever felt like your walk with Jesus has stalled, or you love Him but sense there’s more, this episode may help you identify what’s been missing. We talk about spiritual disciplines, living out the Great Commission, and why discipleship is less about information and more about transformation.

My prayer is that this episode doesn’t just encourage you — but challenges you to take your next step with Jesus.

Listen in and ask yourself: what is the One Big Thing God is inviting you into right now?________________________________

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Grant Redmond, a youth pastor, husband, father, basketball coach, and someone who carries a deep love for Jesus. Grant and I go to church together, and as I prayed about who to bring into this new season of the show, his name was one of the first the Lord placed on my heart.

Grant shares the one big thing Jesus is teaching him right now: grace in the middle of chaos. Whether it’s ministry, parenting, coaching, or simply navigating the noise of modern life, Grant has been learning how to walk with the Holy Spirit, slow down, and let grace make the first move — just as Jesus did for us.

We talk honestly about marriage, parenting, health challenges, and how God meets us in the practical decisions as much as the spiritual ones. Grant opens up about supporting his wife through a diabetes diagnosis, inviting community into their healing journey, and learning to trust God instead of worrying his way through uncertainty.

As a youth pastor, Grant also gives powerful insight into raising kids in today’s culture — a world filled with distraction, pressure, anxiety, and constant comparison. He shares the two foundational questions every parent should be asking, simple rhythms that build faith at home, and why presence and persistence matter more to teenagers than perfection.

If you’re a parent, a spouse, someone navigating a chaotic season, or someone needing to be reminded that God works in both the calm and the storm, this conversation will speak right to where you are.

Listen in and be encouraged — God is with you, grace is available, and you still have time to lead your family well.

In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Laken Kimsey — a husband, father of three, former ministry leader, and the owner of Laken Lee Creative. Laken has been part of my journey behind the scenes for years, and now I finally get to share his heart, his story, and what Jesus is teaching him in this season.

Laken opens up about stepping out of the comfort of a steady salary and into the unknown of launching his own business — not to build an empire, but to follow the voice of God with full surrender. We talk about what it really means to trust the Lord when you can’t see the entire path, why obedience often feels like fear, and how God uses spouses, community, and quiet journaling moments to guide us one step at a time.

This conversation is honest, practical, and full of faith. If you’re in a season where God is asking you to step out, trust more deeply, or surrender what feels safe, Laken’s story will encourage you to believe that God is in every detail — and He’ll meet you on the other side of your “yes.”

Listen in and be reminded: God is faithful, and His light is always enough for the next step.

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Rachel Hale, a singer/songwriter from Nashville and former American Idol finalist who loves Jesus deeply and is learning how to follow Him with courage in the entertainment world.

Rachel opens up about navigating the music industry as a Christian woman — especially the pressure to compromise values around purity, image, and identity. She shares stories of choosing kingdom convictions over cultural expectations, and how the Holy Spirit has taught her to lead even when there’s no blueprint for what God is asking her to do.

We discuss the tension of taking steps of faith when nothing makes sense on paper, and the courage it takes to stay obedient when you feel alone or misunderstood. Rachel also shares powerful moments where God spoke directly to her about her worth, her calling, and why “just because it sells doesn’t mean it’s valuable.”

If you’re in a season where you can’t see the next step, feel pressure to blend in, or wonder if you’re falling behind, Rachel’s story will remind you that God rewards obedience, He honors purity, and He always makes a way where there seems to be none.

Listen in and be encouraged — God is writing a story through your life that only you can carry.
