The very first thing God does in the entire Bible — He walks into a mess.

Genesis 1 isn't the online argument about dinosaurs and timelines. It's the origin story of a God who moves toward chaos instead of waiting for it to clean itself up. This episode, we slow down on the opening of the whole Bible and pull out things most people read right past.

The Hebrew underneath verse 2 — tohu va-vohu, "wild and waste" — and why you already know that feeling in your gut. The pattern hiding in the seven days that you can't unsee once you spot it. The word "created" that only ever has one subject in the whole Old Testament. And the single most important sentence ever written about your worth, settled before chapter 1 is even over: you carry the image of God.

Serious knowledge, real reflection, and something to carry into your actual week — if your life right now feels formless and empty, this one's for you.

On the day-vs-age question, we don't pick the fight everyone expects. We go after what Genesis 1 is actually answering: who made this, and why you're here.

Next episode — Genesis 2 and 3. The garden, and the worst day in human history.

Before Genesis. Before chapter one. Just a quick sit-down on what this season is and why it matters.

Robert kicks off Season 3 with a confession — that thing he used to do in the driveway, truck still running, before walking back into a house full of people who needed him. It's the start of an honest conversation about chasing "providing" when God's actually calling you to lead, and how losing the business he built his life around became the soil this whole ministry grew out of.

This season we walk through Genesis. Slow. One book at a time. Not the online argument version — the origin story of your actual life. Marriage, family, work, jealousy, betrayal, waiting on a promise that's taking too long. It all starts here.

Every episode, three things: you'll understand it, you'll see yourself in it, and you'll walk away with something for your actual Tuesday — not just your Sunday.

Next episode, we open Genesis 1.

You can listen to fifteen podcasts. Read your Bible every day. Know all the right verses, post all the right things, say all the right prayers. And your life can still look exactly the same. Because knowing isn’t the same as doing — and God didn’t call us to know about Him. He called us to walk with Him. In this Season 2 finale, Robert shares the story of the injury that ended one life and started another, the moment Faith in the Fields was born out of the rubble, and what it actually looks like to put faith on the ground. James 1. Joshua 1. And a tease for Season 3.

You gave your heart to Jesus. You meant it. So why are you still angry? Still worried? Still struggling with the same stuff? In this episode, Robert walks through a conversation with his wife and a tearful moment with his oldest son to answer the question most of us are too afraid to ask out loud: if I really surrendered, why am I still like this? From Genesis 4 to Proverbs 3, this one's for anyone who's been told surrender is the finish line — and is starting to suspect that wasn't the whole story.

What do you do when life hits you with something you can’t fix?

In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we talk about one of the hardest parts of faith—letting go of control.

After walking through the loss of his grandfather, Robert shares a deeply personal moment of standing in the hospital, wanting to fix what couldn’t be fixed… and realizing that some situations aren’t ours to control.

Through Scripture and real-life experience, this episode explores:
• Why we naturally try to control outcomes
• How control can quietly replace trust
• What it looks like to surrender—even when it hurts
• And how peace begins when we finally let go

Featuring powerful verses like Proverbs 3:5–6, Psalm 46:10, and 1 Peter 5:7, this conversation is not about having all the answers—it’s about trusting God when you don’t.

If you’re in a season where life feels uncertain, heavy, or out of your hands… this episode will meet you right there.

You don’t have to understand everything.
You just have to trust the One who does.

Everyone wants God’s plan… until it costs them something.

In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we take an honest look at what it really means to follow God—not just in the moments that feel good, but in the moments that require surrender.

Jesus makes it clear in Luke 9:23 that following Him isn’t about convenience. It’s about denying ourselves, taking up our cross daily, and choosing obedience even when it’s uncomfortable.

Through Scripture and real-life reflection, we unpack the true cost of following God:
• Letting go of comfort
• Releasing control
• Trusting Him when it doesn’t make sense
• And sometimes walking a different path than those around us

This episode isn’t about fear or pressure—it’s about clarity.

Because while following God may cost you something… not following Him will cost you more.

If you’ve been feeling the pull to step into something deeper, but hesitation keeps holding you back—this conversation will meet you right where you are.

You don’t need the full plan.
Just the willingness to trust God with the next step.

In this Episode we talk about what God is doing during the waiting season and we dive into the things that God is building inside of us to make sure we have everything we need to be able to carry our blessing. We talk about how sometimes God has to build whats inside of us before he can build the things around us.

Have you ever prayed for something and wondered why God hasn’t answered yet?

In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we talk about one of the hardest parts of faith — waiting on God’s timing. When prayers seem unanswered and life doesn’t move as quickly as we hope, it can be easy to question whether God is working at all.

Through the story of Abraham and powerful scripture like Ecclesiastes 3:11 and Romans 5:3–4, we explore why seasons of waiting are often the very moments when God is shaping our faith, our character, and our future.

Sometimes what feels like a delay is actually preparation.

If you’re in a season where it feels like God is silent or slow to move, this episode will remind you that God’s timing is never random — and He is always working behind the scenes.
