The Almost: When You’re About to Quit, but God Isn’t DoneWhat if the moment you almost gave up…was actually the moment God was getting started?


In Episode 2 of The Collective Thread, three pastors, Cody, Shane, and Cole, share raw, unscripted stories of pain, burnout, disillusionment, and near-collapse. But instead of quitting, they encountered Jesus in unexpected ways...in quicksand moments, closed churches, surgeries, and broken dreams.


This isn’t a polished highlight reel. This is the almost...the messy, holy ground where Jesus meets you, holds your hurt, and says, “I’m not done.”


This episode is for:

-Leaders ready to walk away

-Pastors questioning their call

-People wondering if their “yes” still matters

-Anyone sitting in the tension of almost


You’ll hear how:

-A back injury and pain meds almost ended a ministry

-A failed church plant unraveled a calling

-A bar became a place of baptism, sobriety, and renewal

-God’s faithfulness weaves unlikely lives together into a new movement


If you're in the middle of your almost, you’re not alone. The thread isn’t broken. It’s just beginning.
