<p>Drew is a very humble and kind lover of Jesus. Here are some takeaways from our conversation:</p><ul><li>Kids ask 300 questions a day. By middle school, it drops to zero. You can get it back.</li><li>The best way to love someone isn't advice — it's a follow-up question.</li><li>Answering with a question helps people find their own answers, and those stick.</li><li>Companies are hiring curiosity over credentials.</li><li>You don't need shared interests to connect — just genuine interest in why they care.</li><li>Silence isn't awkward. Rushing to the next question is.</li><li>You don't need a pitch to talk about Jesus. Lead with curiosity and people ask about your story on their own.</li><li>"I don't know — what do you think?" opens more doors than a polished answer.</li><li>Curiosity takes humility. You're handing someone the microphone.</li><li>The more you know someone, the more you love them. Questions are how that starts.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Check him out @drewworsham!</p>

<p>What if the most controversial issues of our day, like homosexuality and transgenderism, actually reveal that science is on the side of the Bible?</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of Walking with the Wise, Nate and I sit down with Nancy Pearcey, a world-renowned author, professor, and speaker, to tackle some of the toughest topics in our culture today. Nancy's journey is incredible; she went from being a skeptical agnostic searching for meaning in philosophy to studying under Francis Schaeffer at L’Abri and becoming one of the leading Christian intellectuals of our time.</p><p><br></p><p>One of the things that really blew my mind was Nancy’s explanation of the "body-personhood" divide. It’s a theory that explains how our secular culture has split the concept of truth into "facts" (science) and "values" (personal feelings). Nancy shows us how this split leads to a negative view of the physical body and how we, as Christians, can actually be the "pro-science" ones by honoring the way God designed our biology.</p><p><br></p><p>What You’ll Learn: </p><p>Nancy Piercy's Journey from Agnosticism to Christianity</p><p>Exploring Relativism and Determinism</p><p>The Body-Person Dualism and Its Cultural Impact</p><p>Historical Context of the Body-Person Divide</p><p>Loving and Supporting Same-Sex Attracted Friends</p><p>Engaging with Non-Christians on Homosexuality</p><p>The Christian View of the Body and Science</p><p>Navigating Conversations on Transgender Issue</p><p>Understanding Identity and Body Image</p><p>The Role of Christianity in Body Positivity</p><p>Personal Stories and Parental Support</p><p>Engaging in Conversations about Sexuality</p><p>The Importance of a Christian Worldview</p><p>Addressing Broader Cultural Issues</p><p><br></p><p>▶️Learn more about Guest:</p><p>https://www.nancypearcey.com/</p><p><br></p><p>▶️Learn more about Walking with the Wise here:</p><p>Linktr.ee/walkingwiththewise</p><p><br></p><p>#WalkingWithTheWise #NancyPearcey #Apologetics #ChristianWorldview #LoveThyBody</p>

<p>Ever feel like you’re just reading a list to God, instead of actually hanging out and having a real conversation with Him?</p><p><br /></p><p>In this conversation of Walking with the Wise, Sam and I sit down with Randy Schwab, the creative mind behind the YouTube channel IM Beggar. Randy has this unique way of turning big spiritual ideas into simple, visual, heart-level moments — usually through animation — and hearing the story behind that gift honestly surprised me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Randy opens up about his past as a successful animator in California, living the party life and chasing career highs. He even hit the dream: Disney wanted to buy his show. But even at the top, he felt completely empty.</p><p>What changed everything was watching his parents quietly cling to their faith while his mom battled cancer. That steady, unshakeable trust in God is what pulled Randy out of skepticism and into a real relationship with Jesus.</p><p><br /></p><p>We dive deep into how he moved from “head knowledge” faith to something that actually transformed his heart. We talk about prayer, slowing down enough to hear God, and learning how to stop performing and just be honest.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you’re tired, distracted, or feeling distant from God… this episode will help you breathe, reset your heart, and actually meet with Him again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guest</p><p>02:12 Randy's Journey to Faith and Animation</p><p>14:20 The Impact of Creative Storytelling on Faith</p><p>21:35 Addressing Pain and Brokenness through Faith</p><p>26:33 Experiencing God's Love Beyond Feelings</p><p>28:30 Reprogramming Our Minds for Prayer</p><p>29:01 The Art of Conversing with God</p><p>30:29 Calming the Mind for Heartfelt Prayer</p><p>33:29 Listening to God: The Gentle Movements of the Soul</p><p>37:35 The Importance of Patience in Prayer</p><p>39:34 Visualizing God's Presence in Prayer</p><p>42:14 Time Management in Prayer</p><p>44:47 Rapid Fire Questions</p><p><br /></p><p>▶️Learn more about IM Beggar:</p><p>https://www.youtube.com/@imbeggar</p><p><br /></p><p>▶️Learn more about Walking with the Wise here:</p><p>Linktr.ee/walkingwiththewise</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>#WalkingWithTheWise #IAmBeggar #ChristianPodcast #PrayerLife #SpiritualGrowth</p>
