Welcome to a brand-new series on the Deeper Podcast called First to Aid—where we’re equipping the church to come alongside those facing difficult medical diagnoses and health challenges with love, wisdom, and presence.
This week, Doug Congdon is joined by co-host Lorraine Haug and special guest Kent Pope. Kent shares openly about the medical challenges he’s faced over the past few years and the powerful ways he’s been uplifted by the care and support of those around him.

Welcome back to the Deeper Podcast! This week, Doug Congdon and Brian Tryhus sit down for a meaningful conversation as we wrap up our series in the book of Acts.
Fresh off our church’s recent Mountain Trip, Doug and Brian reflect on their time away—sharing how the experience created space to be intentional with their kids, connect with other parents, and invest in meaningful conversations about faith and family.
As we close out Acts, the focus shifts from distant mission fields to the everyday mission right in front of us—what it means to be a faithful witness in our homes, in our families, and with the people God has already placed in our lives.
🏡 What does it look like to live out your faith with those closest to you?
🎧 Join us for a personal and practical conversation about legacy, leadership, and being a witness—right where you are.

Welcome back to the Deeper Podcast! This week, Doug is joined by co-host Amy Weatherford and special guest Ryan Goetzmann as we continue our series through the book of Acts.
In this episode, we explore a powerful moment in the story—when Paul and Silas go their separate ways, and Silas chooses to bring John Mark along with him. It’s a reminder that even when paths divide, God continues to work through those who make themselves available to His leading.
Together, Doug, Amy, and Ryan share stories—both personal and from within our church—about how God has shown up in powerful ways when people were simply willing to say “yes” to where He was calling them.
🗺️ Different paths, same mission. What could God do through your availability?
🎧 Tune in and be encouraged to trust that God can use you—right where you are.
