What do you say when you know your words may cost you your life?

In this episode of Dear God, Amen, Adam and Obie walk verse-by-verse through one of the most powerful chapters in all of Scripture—Acts 7.

Stephen doesn't defend himself. Instead, he boldly proclaims the entire story of God's faithfulness from Abraham to Moses, David, and ultimately Jesus Christ. Standing before the Sanhedrin, filled with the Holy Spirit, Stephen delivers a testimony rooted completely in God's Word.

As they unpack Stephen's courage, they explore:

• Why Scripture stands on its own without needing cultural comparisons.
• The danger of religion without obedience to the Holy Spirit.
• What it means to be "stiff-necked."
• Why Jesus is described as standing at the right hand of the Father.
• How Stephen's forgiveness mirrors Christ on the cross.
• Why Saul's presence at Stephen's execution becomes one of the greatest turning points in Christian history.

This conversation is a reminder that your testimony, your obedience, and your faithfulness may impact lives you never see this side of heaven.

Sometimes one faithful witness changes everything.

Trusting God sounds simple—until life falls apart.

In this episode of Pray, Pray, Pray, Obie shares a deeply personal message from a sermon he originally wrote during one of the most difficult seasons of his life. As he now faces another season of uncertainty through recovery, career questions, and unanswered prayers, the message is more relevant than ever.

Through the stories of Peter casting his nets, David hiding in caves, and the Israelites standing before the Red Sea, Adam explores what it really means to trust God—not just when life is good, but when fear is real, answers are absent, and obedience doesn't make sense.

Sometimes faith is beautiful.
Sometimes faith is messy.
Sometimes trust is... ugly.

But God has never failed those who choose to cling to Him.

If you've ever wrestled with fear, uncertainty, waiting, or wondering whether God is still working, this conversation is for you.

Because trust isn't a feeling.
It's a decision.

This week on Dear God, Amen, Adam, Tony, and Obie step away from their planned study in Acts for an honest conversation about what happens when life suddenly changes.

After Tony shares a frightening medical emergency involving his son, the discussion naturally turns toward the book of Job, God's sovereignty, suffering, and what it really means to trust Christ when there are more questions than answers.

How do Christians respond when tragedy strikes?

Does everything happen for a reason?
What does biblical trust actually look like?
How can we find peace that surpasses understanding?

The conversation eventually returns to Acts 6, where the early church models servant leadership, spiritual maturity, and unwavering faith in the face of opposition.

This isn't a polished theological lecture—it's three friends opening Scripture together, wrestling with difficult questions, encouraging one another, and pointing every answer back to Jesus.

Sometimes faith isn't about having all the answers.

Sometimes it's simply answering God's question:

"Do you trust Me?"
