| 6/23/26 | ![]() Episode 295: Don't Just Leave Navigating Church Hurt, Conflict, & Forgiveness | Church hurt is real — and it's one of the most common reasons people walk away from the church, and sometimes the faith altogether. In this episode, Nathan sits down with Nicholas Hines for an honest, compassionate, and biblically grounded conversation about what church hurt actually is, why this happens, and what to do when it happens to you.Nathan and Nicholas break down two distinct types of church hurt — the everyday relational conflict that comes from doing life with imperfect people, and the larger, more public moral failures that can shake entire congregations. They talk honestly about unrealistic expectations, the danger of putting leaders on pedestals, and why running from conflict might be costing you more than you realize.This episode doesn't dismiss anyone's pain — it takes it seriously. But it also issues a loving challenge: don't let someone else's failure become a reason to turn your back on Jesus.Topics covered:The two types of church hurt and why they require different responsesWhy setting proper expectations changes everythingHow Jesus himself navigated relational conflict and betrayalThe danger of social media algorithms feeding a distorted view of the churchWhy your faith can't be built on a pastor or leader — only on JesusPractical steps to pursue reconciliation instead of runningWhat the Bible (Matthew 18, Proverbs, Hebrews 12) says about conflict and forgivenessWhy isolation makes church hurt worse, not better📖 "Fix your eyes on Jesus, the founder and perfecter of your faith." — Hebrews 12:2🎙️ Subscribe to Fuel for the Harvest for conversations that equip everyday believers to follow Jesus faithfully — even through the hard stuff. | — | ||||||
| 6/16/26 | ![]() Episode 294: All Authority and All Nations | What does it actually mean to obey the Great Commission — and is it really for everyone? In this episode, Nathan sits down with Colin, Forge speaker and youth ministry leader, to do a deep dive into Matthew 28 and unpack one of the most well-known — and most misunderstood — passages in all of Scripture.Colin and Nathan walk through the Great Commission line by line, exploring why Jesus took the disciples all the way back to Galilee, what "all authority" really means, and why making disciples is far more approachable than most Christians think. They also talk honestly about the fear of evangelism, the difference between saving people and pointing them to Jesus, and why discipleship is about intimacy with God — not behavior management.Whether you're a ministry leader, a student, or someone who's never shared your faith before, this conversation will encourage and equip you to step into your unique role in the Great Commission.Topics covered:-Why the setting of Galilee matters in Matthew 28-Breaking down "all authority in heaven and on earth"-Baptism, the Trinity, and what it means to belong to God's family-Why you don't have to be a gifted evangelist to share Jesus-The importance of teaching people to know Jesus — not just manage their behavior-How God's presence is a promise, not just a feeling🎙️ Connect with Colin Villanueva and watch him speak on the Forge YouTube channel — search Forging Lives to find it.📌 Subscribe for new episodes of Fuel for the Harvest — equipping believers to advance the gospel everywhere they go. | — | ||||||
