High school is wild—part rollercoaster, part spiritual obstacle course—and this week, we’re talking all about the grit it takes to grow through it. In this episode, we sit down with senior Matt Broach, a guy who knows what it means to wrestle with doubt, fall flat, and still come out stronger on the other side.
Matt opens up about his hardest seasons, how God showed up in unexpected ways, and what he’d say to his freshman self if he could go back. We talk setbacks, spiritual resilience, and why growth often comes through grit, not comfort.
With some laughs, honest stories, and encouragement rooted in James 1, Romans 8, and 2 Corinthians 12, this episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like their faith wasn’t flawless—but still found God right in the middle of the mess.
