About this episode

Candace and Jason discuss the impact of injury, the nature of friendship, and the importance of being rather than doing.

Have you ever gotten close to something you had been chasing, only to lose it in a single moment? Jason Jackson Jr. is back with Candace to wrap up this season. He shares the story of the night he tore his ACL just two plays into the game that was supposed to move him up to varsity. What felt like the end of a dream became a season on the sidelines. Candace and Jason talk about facing new technology without fear and why he maintains clear boundaries around AI, including doing his own writing, studying and wrestling with Scripture. They also discuss popularity and what it costs a generation willing to trade almost anything for a few seconds of being seen. They explore what real friendship looks like when life falls apart and how quickly you discover who your people are. Jason also answers listener questions, including one from an 18-year-old asking whether she can earn God’s love. As Jason says, “God made us human beings, not human doings.” For more from Candace, sign up for email updates at candace.com.
