Author and podcast host Madi Troutt and her husband, speaker Grant Troutt, are back—this time with their daughter Hosanna in tow and a brand-new book in the world. Madi shares the heart behind Dare to Be True, the war against the lies that keep us stuck, and the daily rhythms of walking in freedom. We also talk newborn life, moving to Tennessee, and the surprising power of a well-timed footlong…cookie.
Then we zoom out to the college campus awakening they’ve been witnessing through Unite—stories of prayer, repentance, and spontaneous baptisms that point to the awe of God. From preaching at Movement to building community locally, this conversation carries both urgency and joy. Lean in for a hopeful call to truth, holiness, and everyday obedience.
