Why do we fill our lives with so much noise? Why does slowing down feel uncomfortable or even unproductive?
 
Madi dives into the story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10 and calls out something most of us don't want to admit… we're busy doing FOR Jesus, but not actually being WITH Him.
 
This episode gets honest about distraction, performance, busyness, and the pressure to "do more," and how it can pull us away from what actually matters most.
 
My prayer is that you would slow down, refocus your heart, and choose what matters most… being with Jesus over doing for Him. New episodes every Thursday at 7am EST 🤍

In this episode, Grant dives into one of the hardest commands Jesus gives us in Matthew 6:9–14: forgiveness. Forgiveness isn't optional for believers. It's at the very center of the life God calls us to live.
But what does forgiveness actually look like?
Why is it so difficult to let go of hurt?
This conversation gets honest about the weight of unforgiveness and how bitterness, offense, and pain can quietly keep us bound. Grant unpacks how forgiveness is not about excusing the wound, but about surrendering it to God and allowing Him to heal what we can't heal on our own. Through Jesus, we've been freely forgiven, and He invites us into that same freedom by extending grace to others. Forgiveness may not change the past, but it can change your heart, your healing, and your future.
Our prayer is that this episode helps you release what you've been carrying, trust God with the hurt, and walk in the freedom that comes through forgiveness. 🤍
New episodes every Thursday at 7AM EST.

This week on Stay True Podcast, Madi sits down with Compassion International alumni Jey Mbiro for a powerful conversation about poverty, hope, and the life-changing impact of compassion through the local church.

Today, he's using his story and ministry to bring hope to the next generation and remind others that no life is too far gone for God's redemption.
