Everyday Faith Podcast

What happens when you strip away everything you've achieved, everyone you know, and everything that makes you feel significant — and all that's left is just you and God? For Ben Cooley, that question stopped being theoretical. He lost his job, his platform, and his sense of identity all at once. And what he found on the other side was something he couldn't have found any other way. Ben co-founded ...

What if the greatest gift you could give your kids isn't a better version of your parenting — but a healed version of yourself? Jeff Zaugg and Ben Cooley are back for part two of our Father's Day conversation, and this one goes to places we didn't expect. Both men get honest about the stories they carry — the moments of failure, the coping mechanisms built around pain, and what it actually looks l...

What if the most important thing you can do as a dad has nothing to do with how much you provide — and everything to do with how present you are? Father's Day is right around the corner, and we're doing something a little different. Today Dan sits down with two men who are thinking deeply about what it means to be a great dad — Jeff Zaugg, founder of Dad Awesome and father to four girls, and Ben C...

What if the mission God gave you was never meant to build your reputation — but to reflect His? In part two with Thann Bennett, we pick right back up where we left off — and the conversation just keeps getting better. Thann is the author of My Fame, His Fame, co-founder of A Fearless Life ministry, and a man God asked to turn around and face the people instead of the systems. We talk about humilit...

Your identity in Christ was never meant to be about you. And that's actually the most freeing thing you'll ever hear. That's the message Thann Bennett has been carrying for years — and in this conversation, he unpacks it in a way that is both deeply rooted in Scripture and completely practical for everyday life. Thann is the author of My Fame, His Fame, a speaker, former public policy leader, and ...

What if prayer wasn't something you did at set times throughout the day — but something you carried with you into every moment of it? Rheanna Arfsten is back for part two, and this conversation goes somewhere really good. Rheanna co-leads Freedom Culture and the Occupy Freedom Ministry with her husband Justin, and today she's opening up about something deeply practical and deeply personal — the po...

What does it look like to raise your kids with eternity in view — when most days feel anything but eternal? That's the question Rheanna Arfsten has been sitting with for years of motherhood. And the answer she's found is both simpler and deeper than most of us expect. It starts with where your eyes are looking. Rheanna is the co-founder of Freedom Culture and the Occupy Freedom Ministry, a two-tim...

What if community was never meant to be about finding your people — but about pursuing Jesus together until you become each other's people? In part two with Kaycee Stanley, we're talking about what the Reel Hope Project actually does — and why it matters more than most of us realize. Kaycee and her team make profile videos for kids in foster care who are waiting to be adopted, turning a county fil...

What does it look like to follow a calling for over a decade before you even see it come to life? Kaycee Stanley is the founder of the Reel Hope Project — an organization she and her husband Pete built to change the narrative around foster care and adoption by telling the stories of kids who are waiting. It's a mission that's deeply personal. Kaycee met her son Tez on one of their own video shoots...

What if God has already placed exactly what you need in your life — and you just haven't let it count yet? In part two with Tori Benham, we're picking up the conversation on lies, community, and what it actually looks like to receive the gifts God puts right in front of you. Tori is a mom of four, emotional intelligence coach, and co-author of Beauty and Battle and Unshakeable — and she shares a c...
