The Conversation with Adam Weber

Today I’m sitting down with the insightful Jess Connolly… plus one of my amazing team members, Kylee Breems (who just might be Jess’ biggest fan) and a live audience! Jess beautifully shares from her heart about the importance of surrendering control in everything (especially our callings and in parenting).  We talk about the challenges and joys of motherhood & leadership. Plus we hear about her personal journey through grief and resilience, and she offers wisdom on how to navigate life's trials with faith and grace.  Join us for an uplifting conversation filled with laughter, tears and the shared experience of being human.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by my amazing assistant Emily, and we’re having an honest conversation about something so many of us wrestle with - how to hear God’s voice in our everyday lives. I open up about some of my own experiences and what it’s looked like to try and tell the difference between God’s nudges and my own thoughts. We talk about the role of scripture, the gift of wise friends and the quiet ways God often speaks when we actually pay attention.

In this episode, I chat with my good friend and the Mayor of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Paul TenHaken.  This interview will sound a little different, as we recorded on one of the busiest streets in our city, Philips Avenue (shoutout to downtown SF, a must-visit if you’re in the area)!  As Paul approaches the end of his term, he shares what he’s learned about leadership and gives super practical tips on how to be a good citizen.  My favorite part? When Paul shares about why (especially as Christians) we need to respectfully speak up, even when it's not popular or it goes against our political party. He also talks about the challenges of transitioning from a public role and how he’s making decisions about what’s next for him and his career (it’s powerful!).  Thanks to our amazing partners on this episode: Mission Haiti & Vern Eide Mission Haiti is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to love Jesus, love others, and make disciples in the country of Haiti.

Today on the podcast, I sat down with Brian Slipka. Brian is the founder of True North, a group of businesses that together bring in over a quarter billion dollars a year. But this isn’t just a business story. While visiting his dad in hospice, Brian was asked a question that completely shifted how he viewed success. It moved him from chasing profits and personal ambition, to living with eternal purpose. Now, Brian sees his work as worship. He’s using his influence and impact to point people to Jesus. And it’s powerful.

In today’s episode, I sit down with my friend and worship leader, Kristian Stanfill.  We talk about staying in ministry for the long haul, following Jesus and the emotional rollercoaster of fatherhood (specifically since we both had sons graduate from high school this year)! He also shares about the power of community, showing up as your real self, and what it means to start living free.  Kristian recently celebrated 4.5 years of sobriety (Congratulations!!!) and was on the podcast back in 2023 to talk about his journey with addiction.

Conflict is inevitable in every relationship but how we handle it can make or break our marriage.  In today’s episode, I’m joined by Gabe & Rebekah Lyons as we dive into what it means to fight well.  Not married? They also share some advice for those who are dating and include their “red flags” for when to seek counseling (yes, it’s a good idea to do BEFORE you get married) and when to walk away. Through real stories (like how they got into a fight an hour before this interview!) and kind encouragement, you’ll learn ways to navigate disagreements with grace, humility and love. Whether you're dating, newly married or decades in, this conversation offers practical tools and insight to help turn conflict into connection - and draw you closer to your spouse and to God.
