The Conversation with Adam Weber

In today’s episode, I sit down with the always inspiring, Bob Goff!  Bob is one of the most sought out speakers in the world, he’s a multi-New York Times Best-selling author, lawyer, and world changer... More than anything, he’s one of the most uplifting and inspiring people you’ll ever cross paths with. In only a way that only Bob can, he shares his advice on marriage and parenting. For any married person or parent, his words are filled with wisdom (and it’s hilarious to listen to).  We also talk about the concept of whimsy. What is it? How do we find it in our everyday lives? And how can we pursue it with intention?  Grab a copy of Bob’s new book Catching Whimsy Thanks to our amazing partners on this episode: International Justice Mission & Vern Eide International Justice Mission is a global nonprofit working to end slavery and violence around the world, taking special care of survivors from the moment they’re rescued all the way through their healing and restoration.

In today’s episode, I get to have a conversation with the amazing Megan Fate Marshman! Megan and I talk about seeing the messy parts of ourselves and how God can use our mess just as much as He can use our gifts (especially if we are open and willing to listen to His nudges).  Two months back, Megan shared at Embrace (the church I pastor) and the response was INSANE. Like unexplainable. So I asked her what has changed in her preaching process and how she uncovers so much wisdom.  She also shared how she’s gained an eternal perspective through grieving the loss of her husband. A perspective shift that has obviously changed her. I hope this message leaves you feeling challenged and inspired!  Grab a copy of Megan’s book Relaxed.

In today’s episode, I had the joy of interviewing the dynamic mother-daughter duo: Allie (Cooney) & Sandra Stanley.  Being in the same family as influential pastor Andy Stanley, founder of North Point Church, Allie talks about the unique experiences, expectations and lessons learned from growing up in a family defined by faith, leadership and public attention. Allie, now married with a daughter of her own, has written a book with her mom exploring the dynamics of mother-daughter relationships. During our time together, they share heartfelt stories, practical advice, and offer a glimpse into what it was like being raised in an environment where Christian principles are not just taught, but lived. Allie drills down into why she still loves the church and has chosen to stay when so many others - especially pastor’s kids - have walked away.

Grace is a word that we’ve all most likely heard and yet we often get it wrong.  Do we really know what grace is and, maybe more importantly, what grace isn’t? To dig into this topic, I sit down with Joby Martin. Joby is the founder and lead pastor of The Church of Eleven22 in Jacksonville, Florida which was recently named the “Third Fastest Growing Church in the United States” by Outreach Magazine. Joby’s most recent book is all about the topic of grace.  We talk about why it’s a challenge for us to accept grace.  We talk about why it’s a challenge for us to extend grace to others.  Joby also drops leadership gold, especially for those of us who like to run fast (and maybe act less gracefully than we should when others can’t keep up). I personally needed to hear this!
