Have you ever wondered what it looks like to be a good follower of Jesus in the marketplace? Or what being a witness for Jesus should look like in your career? Maybe you have struggled with how your discipleship to Jesus can actually make you a better businessman or woman. Maybe you've never thought about that at all! If you have ever thought about the relationship between faith and work, this is the conversation for you.

In this second episode of Are You Good?, I sat down with author Ben Locke to have an important and much needed conversation about suffering. Ben's life has been changed forever. A sudden onslaught of sexual abuse and chronic pain took away his dreams of playing professional soccer; in reality it took away his vision of ever living a normal life. But what he learned through his pain and suffering gave him a new vision for what his life could be: united fully in a way he never thought possible to the good God he thought he once knew. It was in Ben's suffering that his relationship with God took root. If you have ever been through suffering, trauma, and doubt, and thought to yourself, "How could a good God let this happen to me?" This is the episode for you. Connect with Ben, and show him some love by checking out his journal In Our Suffering, Lord Be Near wherever books are sold!

In this first episode of Are You Good?, I sat down with my old youth pastor; my mentor and brother, Drew Steinhart. We tackle some very important matters in this episode that will be foundational in the way we think about Are You Good? moving forward. Questions like: What is the gospel, really? How is the "robust gospel" different than the "get out of hell free gospel" we are used to in modern America? How does the gospel inform how we are to live in this life? If you are looking for a conversation to ignite thoughtful meditation on these ideas, press play!
