Digging Another Well

Scripture: Romans 10:17 In this episode of Digging Another Well, we talk about the connection between faith and nourishment. Growing up, I watched my dad tend a garden with incredible consistency. He plowed the ground, planted the seed, watered it faithfully, and prayed over it regularly. At the time, I did not appreciate the work that went into it. But years later, I realized he understood someth...

Scripture: John 3:16 In this episode of Digging Another Well, we reflect on the greatest thing that can ever happen in a person’s life. There have been many meaningful moments in life — marriage, adoption, milestones, and memories that changed everything. But none of them compare to the moment of salvation. John 3:16 is one of the most recognized verses in all of Scripture: “For God so loved the w...

Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:5 In this episode of Digging Another Well, we talk about what it means to shine as children of light in a dark world. A simple light left on at home can completely change the feeling of arriving in the dark after a long day. It cuts through the darkness and reminds you that someone prepared the way for you. Paul tells believers in 1 Thessalonians 5:5: “Ye are all the c...

Scripture: Ephesians 2:19 In this episode of Digging Another Well, we talk about what it means to help others find their place in the family of God. Most of us know what it feels like to walk into a room where we do not belong. To feel uncertain, disconnected, and on the outside looking in. Paul reminds believers in Ephesians 2 that through Christ, strangers and foreigners have been brought near a...

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:58 In this episode of Digging Another Well, we talk about the quiet faithfulness that often feels unseen. As a paramedic, there were many calls where I never knew the outcome. We would do everything we could, hand the patient off at the hospital, and move on to the next emergency without ever knowing what happened afterward. But one conversation with a doctor reminded m...

Some of the strongest words of faith are only two words long: Even if. Even if the prayer isn’t answered the way you hoped. Even if the situation doesn’t change. Even if the outcome looks nothing like what you asked for. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we reflect on what it means to trust God beyond results—when faith is no longer tied to what happens next. True faith is not built...

There are moments when it feels like your prayers are going unanswered. You’ve asked. You’ve waited. You’ve come back again… and still, nothing seems to change. It can be discouraging. It can make you wonder if God is listening—or if you should just stop asking altogether. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we’re reminded of a simple but powerful truth: Don’t stop calling. Prayer is n...

It’s possible to have a faith that looks right… but doesn’t reach very far. To attend, to listen, to participate— and yet keep our relationship with God contained to a single day of the week. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we look at a challenging but necessary truth: Faith was never meant to be limited to Sunday. It was never meant to be a moment. A routine. A box we check. It wa...

Waiting is one of the hardest parts of following God. It’s the space between what He promised and what you can actually see. The place where time stretches longer than you expected. Where answers feel delayed. Where progress seems slow—or nonexistent. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we talk about what it means to trust God  not after the answer comes—but while you wait . Becau...

Scripture: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 There are seasons when exhaustion goes deeper than sleep can fix. Not just physical tiredness—but a kind of weariness that settles into your soul. The kind that builds slowly. The weight of responsibilities. The pressure that never fully lets up. The feeling that you are giving more than yo...

Scripture: “Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.” — Philippians 4:4 There are seasons in life when rejoicing feels nearly impossible. When the diagnosis comes. When the pressure builds. When relationships break down. When the plan you had carefully built begins to unravel—joy is not the first thing that rises in your heart. And yet, Scripture says: Rejoice in the Lord always. In th...

Scripture: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.” — Romans 8:1 Some of the heaviest burdens we carry are not placed on us by others. They come from within. The replaying of moments we cannot change. The words we wish we had said differently. The decisions we wish we could take back. Long after everyone else has moved on, we return to those moments and put ourse...

Scripture: “The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.” — Nahum 1:7 There are moments in life when the pressure feels overwhelming. Sometimes it comes suddenly — in urgent, high-stakes situations where every second matters. Other times, it builds quietly over time through stress, responsibility, uncertainty, and the weight of everyday life. Either...

Scripture: “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” — Psalm 51:10 What do you do when trying harder isn’t enough? In this episode of Digging Another Well , we look at one of the most honest prayers in all of Scripture—and what it reveals about the kind of transformation God desires to do in us. There are seasons when we recognize something isn’t right. The same patt...

Scripture: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” — Jeremiah 29:11 What do you do when life doesn’t look anything like you planned? In this episode of Digging Another Well , we take a closer look at one of the most quoted verses in Scripture—and the part we often overlook. Jeremiah 29:11 is frequently used...

Scripture: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” — Psalm 23:4 There are seasons in life that feel like they will never end. Moments where the weight is heavy, the darkness feels permanent, and the path forward is unclear. Valleys that linger longer than expected, leaving us wondering if we w...

Scripture: “That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God… among whom ye shine as lights in the world.” — Philippians 2:15 Chaos has a way of demanding our attention. Noise. Conflict. Confusion. Disorder. It is easy to feel overwhelmed by it all — and even easier to lose focus in the middle of it. In this episode of Digging Another Well, we reflect on Philippians 2:15 and the calling to s...

Scripture: “Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God…” — Deuteronomy 8:11 We often remember the hard seasons. Moments of struggle… Times of need… Seasons that drove us to depend on God more deeply. Those experiences leave a mark. They remind us how much we need Him. But there is another kind of season that can quietly shape us just as much — the season when things are going well. In this episo...

Scripture: “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7 Why is it so hard to let go? We hold on to things that stir our emotions — offenses, worries, anxieties, burdens. We replay conversations. We rehearse situations. We carry weight that was never meant to stay in our hands. And if we are honest, sometimes holding on feels easier than releasing. In this episode of Diggi...

Scripture: “And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” — Luke 6:46 Some things in life become automatic. Driving. Daily routines. Tasks we’ve done so many times that they require little thought or attention. What once demanded focus eventually becomes second nature. The same can happen in our spiritual lives. In this episode of Digging Another Well, we reflect on Jesus’ qu...

Scripture: “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted?” — Matthew 5:13 What does it mean to truly make a difference? In this episode of Digging Another Well, we reflect on Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:13 and His description of believers as the salt of the earth. Salt is not flashy. It is not loud. It is not meant to draw attention to itself. But...

Scripture: “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.”  — Psalm 37:23 Life does not always follow the path we expect. Plans are made. Goals are set. We map out what we believe the future should look like. And then something changes. A door closes. A new opportunity appears. The direction shifts. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we reflect on...

Scripture: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”  — Matthew 5:16 We do not always know who is watching. Sometimes we assume the ordinary moments of life go unnoticed. The way we respond under pressure. The way we treat others. The way we carry ourselves when no one seems to be paying attention. But often, more peop...

Scripture: “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.”  — Matthew 28:6 There is a difference between hearing a promise… and seeing it fulfilled. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we reflect on the resurrection of Jesus and the powerful phrase spoken by the angel at the tomb:  “as He said.” The women who came to the tomb that mornin...

Scripture: “O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.”  — Psalm 136:1 There are moments in life when we are painfully aware of our failures. Things we have said. Choices we have made. Moments we wish we could take back. In this episode of  Digging Another Well , we reflect on Psalm 136 and the steady, unchanging truth repeated throughout the chapter:&n...
