William Paul Young is back—and this convo is a true gift. If you know The Shack, you already know Paul has a way of sharing stories that stretch your heart and soul. In this episode, we go deep on navigating life's seasons—the expected ones, the surprising ones, and the hard ones too.

We talk about letting go of pressure, trusting God in the now, and why Paul says a "purpose-driven life" might be the wrong goal. (Yep, he goes there—and it's powerful.)

Plus, we break some big news: Paul is working on a sequel to The Shack… and the inspiration came from an unexpected place! (The story will inspire you!) He shares why he's writing it now, what's changed since the original, and he even drops a few plot twists that will surprise even the most die-hard Shack fans.  (Be the first to hear it!)

Whether you're in a season of clarity or confusion, this episode is packed with honesty, hope, and a reminder that trusting the right things can change everything.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
