Show Notes
What do you do when you feel too weak, insecure, or inadequate to keep going? In this episode, Zach and Jill sit down after a heavy week and talk honestly about what it feels like to serve, teach, lead, parent, and follow Jesus when you don’t feel strong. Instead of pretending, they turn to Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians, where the power of the gospel is located not in eloquence, strategy, charisma, or human wisdom, but in Christ crucified. Paul says the word of the cross looks like foolishness to the world, but to those being saved, it is the power of God. The Jews demanded signs. The Greeks sought wisdom. But Paul preached Christ crucified: the power of God and the wisdom of God.

Church hurt can leave behind resentment, confusion, and the temptation to walk away entirely. But what does it look like to let grace have the final word?
What if Christianity is more than believing the right things and waiting to leave this world? In this episode, Zach and Brandon discuss a recurring tension: God does the work, but He also invites His people to participate. That means the Christian life is not passive, private, or disembodied. It is lived out in real time, in real places, with real people. They talk about the local church, the incarnation, the “one another” commands, and why salvation cannot be reduced to “Jesus died for my sins so one day I can get out of here.” Jesus came in the flesh. He values the physical world. He sends the Spirit. He creates a people. And He invites us into the actual life of God.
From a hilarious debate over ear hair and potential razor sponsorships to a viral vocal debut that caught the attention of Randy Travis himself, this episode of Not Yet Now kicks off with plenty of laughs. But we don't stay on the surface for long—we quickly pivot to the powerful, real-life miracles unfolding in our community.
