Show Notes
Alex and Henry Seeley (The Belonging Co) are back for a wide-open catch-up that somehow hits everything—from family life and church growth in Tennessee to new music, new campuses, and what it’s like building a multi-location church with video preaching.
Then the conversation turns holy (and hilarious) as Alex shares about her upcoming book The Divine Counselor—a fresh, needed look at Holy Spirit as a Person, not just a symbol. And Henry tells the unforgettable story of a midnight drive that became a defining encounter… complete with “walking” Holy Spirit into their home.

Your kid sobs one minute and asks to go play the next, and nothing is wrong with them. Counselor Sissy Goff explains why children grieve in doses, like holding their breath underwater, and why even a six-month-old feels the loss. Levi and Jennie share the ice rink moment when two-year-old Daisy spotted a girl with Lenya's hair, plus Levi's one complaint about Sissy's new book: it wasn't written 15 years ago. Bonus: slalom water skiing at 32 mph.
At 17, Luke Lezon marched into his mom's furniture boutique and announced he didn't believe any of it. She didn't even flinch. Luke joins Levi and Jennie for the story of a 10,000-person Bible study at Texas A&M, a wife he met on Twitter, and how a church split put a 28-year-old young adults pastor in the pulpit every Sunday. Plus Levi looks up what "Gig 'em" actually means, and it is way more violent than anyone expected.
When John Eldredge met Stasi in drama class, his opening line was "Don't mark me absent." Forty-three years later, Stasi joins Jennie to talk about the monastery bells that pause her ministry's day twice daily, the loss of Brent Curtis just as Wild at Heart was taking shape, and trying on the sentence "I fail, but I am not a failure." Plus a look at her brand new book, The Ladder of Love, out now.
Some kids get stuck doing the dishes. The Espinosa brothers, Angelo, Michael, and Eric, got music lessons as their chore, so when big brother Angelo pitched starting a band, the answer was a hard no. (Spoiler: they're Strings & Heart now, and they're on a rocket ship.) The Tucson trio tells Levi and Jennie how Jesus made their faith their own, why their first "youth camp" gig was in someone's backyard, and how Angelo moonlighted as their totally legit booking agent, Jonathan. Plus: their new single, How It Feels To Live.
Josiah Queen and his wife Trinity join Levi and Jennie for their first joint episode — and it's a good one. They trade the story of how a ping pong ball to the back turned into a marriage, get into the making of Josiah's viral hit "Amazing", and Trinity opens up about the year she committed to sharing the gospel every single day — including the time she gave a total stranger her favorite necklace. Plus: a first look at Josiah's new album and a surprise book announcement.
