Paul is mistaken for a god, then stoned, and then he gets up and goes back into the city. What drove Paul to go back? In week two of Witness on Daybreak Audio Vox, Pastor Geoff looks at Acts 14 and asks how much of our lives is led by conviction and how much by emotion. Along the way, staff member Tory Johnson shares how spiritual conversations became part of his everyday rhythm, Matt Lockett tells the story of a friend who shared Jesus with him in an Indiana cornfield, and Pastor Geoff invites us to say yes to an intentional spiritual conversation before November 29.

What kind of person drives toward the storm everyone else is driving away from? In week one of Witness, Pastor Geoff starts with storm chasers and asks what it would look like to be the one who goes in for someone else. Then he walks through Saul's encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus in Acts 9 - a man who knew the Scriptures inside and out, yet had to ask "Who are you, Lord?" - and shows the difference between knowing about God and knowing him.

Some things have to be buried before you can move forward. In week six of Obsession, Pastor Rachel follows Jacob back to Bethel in Genesis 35, where God calls him to bury his idols under an oak tree and keep the promise he made there. From phones and calendars to money, achievement, and control, we look at the everyday things that quietly take God's place, why we hold onto them, and what it looks like to grieve with hope, pour ourselves out in worship, and end a generational cycle.
