In today's culture there's a growing trend towards being untethered and free from constraints - minimalism helps us to be free from the burden of stuff, tiny homes allow us to be free from being tied down, freelancing gives us the freedom to work how we want and when we want. We don't want anyone to tell us what we should do. Why can't we just do what we want?

We know we can’t be the only ones who wake up at 3 AM wondering, “AM I WASTING MY LIFE?” Internet influencers, 30 under 30s, and a to-do list/goal-focused culture put constant pressure on you to be more successful at a younger age than the generation before you. As a result, the pressure convinces you that nothing is worth doing unless it’s wildly successful. Your purpose becomes "success," and it’s exhausting. It's also not that great of a purpose either. In this episode, Adam and Whit discuss ...

Everyone has had fleeting thoughts and questions about their faith, so what do you do with them? Maybe doubt wasn't welcomed in your church or family growing up. Often, that's because a lot of followers of Jesus only have one category for doubt... doubt = bad. When you lump all doubt together, you end up thinking that Jesus doesn't want your questions but that couldn't be further from the truth. In this episode, Whit George and Adam Bush discuss three categories of people and use them as a roadm...
