Being a dad isn't easy and we often feel alone. This is why we launched Dads on Tap to provide a place for dads to hang out with other dads in a laid-back environment, have a great beer and learn some practical ways to become a better dad. On the DOT Podcast you'll hear real stories from real dads aimed at helping you be a better Dad.
We all carry hopes and dreams around with us. Sometimes we even believe they will make our lives feel more complete. But what happens when those good hopes and dreams begin to carry the weight of proving our value, securing our future, or telling us who we are?
In this deeply personal episode, Scott shares what happened when a dream he had carried for nearly two decades suddenly seemed possible—and then disappeared through an unexpected death. It’s an honest exploration of grief, desire, and surrender, and an invitation to both trust our Heavenly Father and pursue our dreams faithfully without expecting them to carry a weight they were never designed to bear.

The Vows We Don't Know We Made
Most of us have made promises we don’t remember making: “I won’t need anyone,” “I won’t get my hopes up,” or “I’ll handle life on my own.” These hidden vows often begin as intelligent ways of surviving pain, disappointment, or loneliness—but over time, they can keep us from the connection, hope, and trust we genuinely desire. In this episode, Scott explores how these quiet agreements shape our relationships with others and with God. In the process he shares his own struggle with self-reliance and disappointment and considers what we can learn from a desperate man's interaction with Jesus. It’s an invitation to recognize the vow beneath our strongest reactions, honor why it formed, and allow the Father to lead us beyond survival and into freedom.

When God Doesn't Fix It
What happens when you pray, believe, and God still doesn’t give you the outcome you desperately hoped for?
In this deeply personal episode, Scott reflects on the loss of a good friend and the painful tension of trusting God when healing doesn’t come and the story remains unresolved. Through Jesus’ prayer in Gethsemane and His grief at Lazarus’s grave, Scott explores what it means to move beyond formula faith and remain with the Father when life still hurts.
This isn’t an attempt to explain suffering or offer an easy answer—it’s an invitation to be an example to our family by grieving honestly, refusing to grieve alone, and discovering that even when God doesn’t fix our pain, He faithfully meets us in it.
