The Godventure Podcast

In this episode of The Godventure Podcast, we discuss how adversity can sometimes be the fun part of outdoor adventures, as well as how God uses it to shape us. We share some stories of how things did not go according to plan, but looking back we wouldn't have it any other way. In addition to reflecting on why we think God allows adversity in our own lives to shape us.  Please send us a DM on our Instagram with any questions you have or click the messages link at the bottom of this description, and we may answer it in a podcast.

In this podcast, we talked about how camping can help you connect with God. We believe the farther you are away from the busy normal life the easier it is to hear God's voice. Camping can be one of the best ways to do this by getting out in the wilderness for an extended period of time God can meet you there. We mentioned the reason why we like camping so much and a few ways to get into it if you have not been before. We hope this encourages you to go camping whether that's just around the corner or across the country. Please let us know how you get into camping!

In this podcast, we talked about the racial divide within the United States and our duty as Christians to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God in the pursuit of racial reconciliation. We are joined by Tyler Allison, our good friend, and brother in Christ. He presented us with a Christian perspective on racial reconciliation and walked us through some of his experiences as a black man living in the United States. Together we had a conversation over Imago Dei, which is the truth that all human beings are created in the image and likeness of God. Lastly, Ty shared his encounters with God in nature and ended the conversation with a prayer seeking healing for both individual souls and for our nation, which can only come through Christ.

We are joined by Holly Janco and Calvin Go who were members of the Godventure road trip this past summer that sparked the idea for this podcast.

We have been quiet for quite a while now. Things in life have changed, and it has been tough to find time to record, but Matt Enser and Holly Janco—who recently got engaged—got together and recorded an episode on how do you know when you know you are ready for engagement. We did a lot of things to try to make sure we were making the right choice and through a lot of prayer we decided to get engaged and here is a conversation on what things we thought through and how we came to this decision.  Interested in 12Stone's premarital?
