Wyatt Matters

From alligator joyrides to “Hellmann’s Weddings,” the crew wraps Season One with laughter and lunacy—Florida-style. But as the laughs fade, Pastor Steve Wyatt delivers a powerful challenge drawn from King Solomon’s words: stop hoarding your crumbs and start casting them. Whether it’s launching a dream, taking a leap of faith, or simply stepping out of comfort, this episode dares you to live fully....

The crew wakes up to the weirdest invention yet—a hotel alarm clock that releases the scent of bacon and coffee instead of noise. From there, they dive into real-life “force multipliers,” moments that make good go viral: Starbucks drive-thru kindness chains, GoFundMe miracles, and Erica Kirk’s powerful act of public forgiveness that inspired thousands to do the same. Host Steve Wyatt connects the...

This week opens with some laughs.. from a wedding guest who secretly ordered pizza during the reception to yet another viral “rapture date” that didn’t quite pan out. The crew unpacks why Christians keep falling for wild predictions and what it really means to live ready for Jesus’ return without losing your mind... or your pizza money. Then host Steve Wyatt turns the focus inward with a raw, pers...

Charlie Kirk called the church a life raft in a sinking culture.

This week, the Wyatt Matters team sets aside the usual Hot Takes to reflect on what they call the most powerful five hours of television they’ve ever seen: the memorial service for Charlie Kirk. From politicians boldly proclaiming the gospel, to reconciliation between public rivals, to Erica Kirk’s stunning words of forgiveness—“Father forgive them”—the service became a showcase of hope, unity, an...

We’re serving up a listener favorite: when the Ohio Supreme Court ruled “boneless wings” don’t actually need to be boneless, and an “all-you-can-eat buffet” ran out of food. The Hot Takes fly, but the meaning is deeper — words matter. Host Steve Wyatt reminds us that if human words carry weight, how much more do God’s? Whether life feels full or empty, steady or shaken, His Word is unshakable, and...

We kick off with college football mascots and the unlikely star of Bowling Green State—Pudge the cat. Then it’s a Florida man in Batman pajamas who stopped a thief, proving sometimes your wardrobe really does change your behavior. From there, the crew tackles “Weird-for-Jesus” Christians and why acting strange isn’t proof of faith. Host Steve Wyatt challenges us to stop copying other Christians or...

We start with a new dating trend called Shrekking—lowering your standards in hopes of better treatment. Then it’s the Cracker Barrel rebrand that sparked a storm of outrage online. Both raise the same question: why do we chase image, status, and pride when they rarely deliver what we want? Pastor Steve Wyatt points us to a different way: the downward path. Following Jesus means emptying ourselves,...

From purple rocks to Disney adults, the crew laughs through it all, but also asks: Why are we so quick to grab for shallow comforts? From there, host Steve Wyatt unpacks what...

This week starts with a jaw-dropping stat — Americans spend 49 hours a year scrolling their phones in the bathroom. From “TikTok Tush” to toilet-as-a-desk confessions, nothing is sacred.

Host Steve Wyatt flips the script, showing why judgment is nev...

This week’s show opens with a look back at July—a month that claimed some big cultural names, from Chuck Mangione to John MacArthur.

The panel unpacks what real love—and real Christian witness—should look like in divided times. Then Steve Wyatt shares the...

A pig running down the freeway. A mom reenacting her toddler’s meltdown about poop and rocks. It’s hilarious - until it hits home. We’re all imitating something. The question is: who?

Because faith isn’t about pretending to be good, it’s about walking like your Father. Visit http...

What do military discipline and hockey greatness have in common...

A banana, a podcast king, and the book of Ephesians walk into a studio… This week, we break down proper banana etiquette (with a knife and fork?!), Joe Rogan’s surprising shift toward faith, and why so many people with “everything” still feel empty.

In the heart of the show, Steve shares how a 2-year-old’s words—“Mommy is pink”—sparked one of the most honest...

From there, host Steve Wyatt tells an honest story about cussing out a bully—an...

We open with Hot Takes—starting with the viral moment President Macron’s wife appears to slap him on camera. Was it playful? Controlling? Just awkward?

From slap-happy presidents to savage influencers, the real issue i...

Then we shift to a far more sobering story: the murder of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf. Just one day later, his father publicly forgives the killer. Is it too soon? Too public? Or is this exactly what grace looks like? Then host Steve Wyatt leads us deep into the p...

In this special episode, we hit pause on the laughs—sort of. The viral interview with NFL legend Bill Belichick and his much-younger girlfriend Jordan Hudson sparked headlines around the world. But what does it really say about love, power, image, and identity? The team tackles this high-profile relationship and asks deeper questions: Is this love—or just another search for security?
