The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast

Have you ever done everything you believed God asked of you and still heard nothing back?

That’s where Jason Jackson Jr. sat in early 2025, pulling in millions of views on his content and still unable to cover

rent or keep food in the fridge. This week Candace and Jason talk about the weight of waiting, and what it takes to

keep going when the answer is not coming on your timeline.

Jason walks through the fasting he committed to and the moment when everything shifted. He and Candace talk

about why how you see yourself decides how long you stay in the wilderness, and why your current situation is not

your final conclusion.

They also answer three listener questions:

Courtney is learning to sit in church beside a friend who walked away.

Lily, who is 18, is fighting the lies of perfectionism and performance.

Catherine wants to know how to find friends who keep her honest. Candace reminds Lily that God has never asked

any of us to be perfect, only to come as we are!

Life is like a rollercoaster, but it’s better when we go through it together!

Have you ever had a moment that showed you exactly how far God had carried you?

Jason Jackson Jr. is back with Candace this week, and he tells the story of a season when he had eight quarters to his name, counting them out at a grocery checkout for the cheapest pack of bologna on the shelf.

Jason talks about staying humble by remembering on purpose. He points to Deuteronomy 8 and the way God keeps telling His people not to forget Him once the blessing comes. He shares the practices that keep him grounded: journaling the hard moments, still making a pallet on the floor after his biggest nights, eating a struggle meal to remember when that was the only food in the house. He also tells Candace about tithing his last ten dollars and what showed up ten days later.

Candace and Jason sit with the story of the ten lepers and how quickly gratitude fades once a miracle becomes familiar. Two listeners write in as well: Reagan, 14, wants to hold onto her morning time in the Bible Recap, and Hannah is trying to see God clearly again after spiritual abuse.

Have you ever stood at a crossroads where you knew what God was calling you to, but everything in you wanted to retreat to the safer, more comfortable path?

Candace and Jason Jackson Jr. open the episode answering a listener question from Ashley, a newer Christian working her way through the Bible. Jason describes how he started reading from the perspective of the sinner rather than the savior, putting himself in the shoes of the people Jesus is speaking to instead of in Jesus' shoes. That way, he says, the message comes through and not just the miracle.

The episode picks up Jason's story where last week left off. From being woken up at 9 years old to provide a clean drug test for family members, to choosing at 11 to move in with friends so his mom would have one less mouth to feed, to walking away from an NFL career at 21 years old, Jason traces a path shaped by one conviction: a job is what you get paid to do, and work is what you were created to do. Ministry, he says, is work.

Jason then talks about the Kidron Valley, the Valley of Decisions, the space between Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives where Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. He talks through what it means to be caught between peace and pressure, and why he believes the response in that valley is prayer.

The episode also includes a second listener question from Gracie, who just turned 18 and asks for one piece of advice as a new adult. Jason tells her to serve as many people as she can, and Candace encourages her to stay honest, with herself, with others, and with God.

Have you ever been in the middle of something hard and wondered whether you're supposed to fight through it, pray it away, or just wait?

Jason Jackson Jr. grew up in De Kalb, Texas, a town of 1,200 people, with a mother working as a janitor and a father sentenced to decades in prison before Jason could walk. What he carries from that childhood isn't bitterness. It's a clarity about what it means to watch someone trust God with almost nothing.

At 24, Jason is reaching millions of people on social media with creative Bible teaching. He started creating content in 2023 during the worst depression of his life, when scripture started coming alive for him.

Jason's struggle became the setup for this week's conversation: the difference between storms, thorns, and crosses. Storms are seasonal and have an end date. Thorns, like the one Paul describes in 2 Corinthians 12, are the things God sees and decides to leave because of what they produce. Crosses are the seasons that stretch you beyond what you thought you could hold.

Jason and Candace answer a listener question from Tracy on how to explain why you believe the gospel when you feel tongue-tied.

Jason's exclusive video series, Unfiltered Faith, is available at candace.com/together.

Have you ever prayed for something so specific, so far out of reach, that when it finally happened you almost couldn't believe it?

Jason Jackson Jr. grew up without his dad at home, raised by a single mom, watching the people around him make choices he knew would cost them. He poured everything into sports and got close enough to the NFL that scouts were paying attention. But then he walked away. Not because the dream died, but because he wanted to do what he was created to do, not just what people told him he was good at. In 2023, Jason started posting faith content online and it went viral.

Now he has well over a million followers across platforms, and the reason is simple: he helps you find something new in a Bible story you may have heard a hundred times.

For six weeks, Jason is sitting down with Candace to get into the things that keep people stuck: the situation you can't avoid, the long wait that tests everything you believe, what pride and stubbornness actually cost, and what it looks like to trust God to make a way when you can't see one. New episodes start next Tuesday, along with the brand-new exclusive video series Unfiltered Faith coming to candace.com/together.

Life is like a rollercoaster, but it's better when we go through it together!
