They talk about the desperation that preceded his first meeting, the phone call that changed his life, and what getting sober didn’t automatically fix. Together, they reflect on restored relationships, lingering self-doubt, and recognizing that God was present even when Scott felt completely abandoned. For anyone wondering whether they’ve gone too far, this conversation offers a deeply personal reason to hope.

Scott and Deb talk about the weight so many of us keep carrying that was never ours to hold. After a funeral and a long ride around the lake, they get real about control, fear, adult kids whose problems you can no longer fix, and why “let go and let God” is more than recovery talk. It’s a conversation about finally putting down what only He can redeem—and discovering He was already waiting in the mess.

In this honest conversation, Deb and Scott explore why letting go can feel frightening when we don’t yet know God well enough to trust Him. Scott shares the unsettling thought that God might have set him up to fail, and they talk about how a relationship with God grows through time, prayer, and experience. Surrender, they reflect, isn’t giving up—it’s asking God for help with what we can’t fix and choosing the next right step. You can come to Him as you are, even when trust is still growing.

What happens when you know where to turn for peace, but still struggle to do it? In this deeply personal episode, Deb and Scott begin with a listener’s question about whether past mistakes can disqualify us from righteousness and return to the truth that we are redeemed not by our own righteousness, but by the righteousness of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. From the honesty and praise of the Psalms to the story behind “Where Can I Turn for Peace?”, Scott opens up about his own recent physical, mental, and spiritual struggles and the difficulty of living the very message he teaches each week: Look To Him. Together, Scott and Deb explore surrender, recovery, grace, praise, and the simple but difficult invitation to stop trying to carry everything alone. Peace may not come because the struggle disappears, but because, in our reaching, Christ reaches back.

If you’ve ever wondered what it means to know Jesus—not just know about Him—this episode is for you.

Nick spent years trying to outrun the pain in his life until addiction took nearly everything—his marriage, his family, his home, and eventually any sense that there was a way back. At one point, he made a decision to stop fighting and simply “burn it all to the ground.” But in the wreckage, something unexpected happened: God met him there. In this raw and deeply personal conversation, Nick shares how recovery led him from simply knowing about God to developing a real relationship with Him—one built on surrender, honesty, grace, and daily connection. His story is a powerful reminder that we do not have to clean ourselves up before we come to God. Sometimes the first step is simply turning toward Him.

We spend so much of life trying to define ourselves by our roles, careers, relationships, successes, failures, and the opinions of others. But what if the deeper question isn’t “Who am I?” but “Whose am I?” In this episode, Scott and Deb explore what it means to find our deepest identity in belonging to God. Through Scripture, personal experiences, and the reminder that our worst moments don’t get naming rights over our lives, they invite us to stop looking outward for our worth and instead Look To Him—the One who already knows us, loves us, and calls us His. He call us His because WE ARE HIS!
