Pastor, author, and hip-hop artist, Trip Lee has spent years using his platform to call people to authentic faith in Christ. In this episode, Trip unpacks how we often fall into the subtle trap of calling things “good” when, in reality, they’ve taken God’s place in our hearts. He challenges us to rethink what we truly worship and whether the things we pursue—success, relationships, comfort—are actually distractions from a deeper devotion to God.

Listen in as Trip makes it clear that God alone is worthy of our ultimate affection and trust, and anything else—no matter how good—becomes dangerous when it takes His place.

Revivalist, speaker, and leader behind Saturate Global, Jessi Green is dedicated to seeing grassroots revival break out across America. She carries a passion for awakening people to the transformative power of the gospel and mobilizing believers to bring renewal to their communities.

In this episode, Jessi shares how true revival isn’t just about big events—it’s about ordinary people being ignited by the Spirit to bring change right where they are. She challenges us to rethink what revival really looks like—it’s not confined to church walls or conferences but happens in homes, workplaces, and the streets when believers step out in faith.

Listen in as she reminds us that revival starts with individuals who are willing to be obedient, to pray, and to take action.
