In this episode of So, What’s the Point?, Justin sits down with a twenty-year-old who shares how loss at a young age has shaped him into the person he’s becoming today. After losing his father at just eight years old, his story unfolds through faith, growth, and a willingness to say “yes” to God — even when it leads to unexpected places.

From the joy and enthusiasm surrounding baptism to serving two unforgettable summers at a Christian summer camp in Alaska, he reflects on how stepping outside his comfort zone deepened his faith and broadened his perspective. Along the way, he unpacks why being liked isn’t the goal, how the lack of a father figure in our culture is resulting in weak young men, and why wisdom often shows up in surprising people and places.

This conversation is honest, thoughtful, and encouraging — a reminder that God uses every season of life to teach us, shape us, and invite us into something bigger.

What happens when a dream opportunity isn't what God has in mind?

In our very first episode of So, What’s the Point?, Justin sits down with our pastors to talk honestly about the road that led them here. From a bike shop business that didn’t work out, to the unexpected calling of planting and growing a church in Maine, this conversation is full of real lessons learned along the way.

They share what it’s truly like to partner together in leadership, the challenges and blessings of pastoring side by side, and why saying “yes” to God often means stepping into the unknown. We also look ahead to the future dreams God has placed on their hearts for Moss Brook Church.

If you’ve ever wondered whether partnership is worth it, how to grow when the odds are stacked against you, or what faith looks like when you can't see what's next—this episode is for you.
