For the past few months, I have been cohosting the weekly Discovering God Podcast with Rip Wahlberg. On this Discovering God Podcast, Rip and I address many different subjects – including the scriptures, theology, spirit-filled living, Christian living, matters of faith, and our spiritual journeys. For those of you interested, the audio version of our Discovering God Podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, and a lot of other podcast directories. You can also watch the video version of the Discovering God Podcast on YouTube, and you can find our reels on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

In our most recent episode of the Discovering God Podcast, an episode titled “The Pilgrimage of Faith,” Rip Wahlberg converses with me on my story and spiritual pilgrimage. I share some of the aspects of my life that have shifted and shaped me into who I am today. This episode of the Discovering God Podcast will show how I arrived at the place I am today, and why I am avidly invested in searching for a life of downward mobility. In addition to sharing what has shaped my journey, I also share my recommendations to those who are on a spiritual pilgrimage of their own.

Episode 24: The Pilgrimage of Faith

I invite you to take a few minutes and traverse with me into yesterday, as our newest installment of the Discovering God Podcast treks alongside the story of my life. In this episode, I reveal the unique path that has brought me to where I am today. I hope you will also be encouraged as you continue your spiritual pilgrimage, finding what it means to “not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). You can watch the episode below, through YouTube.
