Hey everyone, my name is Barrett Campbell! I am a Clemson student in my senior year, and I am the host of the 'Be Still' podcast. I will be discussing my walk with Jesus, the challenges that come with Christianity, and how to be still amidst the chaos of life. I will be offering guidance on faith, relationships, stillness, and more. I can't wait for y'all to listen!
Welcome back to the Be Still Pod! In this episode, we’re talking about how much of our lives we spend performing for an audience that isn’t even watching. We chase money, status, beauty, possessions, fame, success, and approval, but what are we sacrificing to get there? Time with our families, genuine love, relationships, being present, experiencing God’s creation, and ultimately our relationship with Him. We’ll talk about why we feel the need to be seen, admired, and envied, what Scripture says about living for the approval of others, and what actually makes this life worth living. You can gain everything the world tells you to want and still miss the life God gave you. You chased the whole world, but missed your one chance to actually live. This week, "Be still" and chase God!

Are You Really Saved… or Just Following What You’ve Been Told? (doing 'good' won't save you)
Welcome back! In this episode, we’re coming back to the foundation of our faith, the truth that nothing we do can earn our way to heaven or make up for our sin. Not good works, not giving, not religious systems, only Jesus. His sacrifice alone paid the full debt we owe and made a way for us to truly know God. We’ll talk about how serving, loving others, and living well are beautiful and important, but they come from knowing Him, not earning Him. This is about giving credit where it’s due and understanding that being a Christian isn’t about striving, it’s about trusting fully in what Jesus already finished. So this week, “Be Still” and rest in the truth that it’s already been done.

Whether you’re in a dry season or just need a reset, these are gentle reminders that Jesus is always near, you just have to invite Him in. 'Be Still' this week and let Him meet you right where you are.

Welcome to week three of the devotional series!
