The Pursuit Podcast
The Pursuit Podcast is where faith gets real, leadership gets honest, and culture gets challenged. Hosted by pastor, author, and speaker Justin D. Belt, this show is not here to coddle you with clichés. It's here to call you higher.
Each episode is a shot of truth and clarity for people who are tired of surface-level spirituality and starving for something deeper. We’re talking bold faith, hard questions, real transformation, and the kind of leadership that starts with obedience. Whether you're deconstructing, rebuilding, leading, following, or just trying to survive the chaos, this podcast will help you chase what matters most.
If you're ready to wrestle with truth, rethink what it means to follow Jesus, and pursue your calling with courage, then welcome to the pursuit.

2. Becoming is the Assignment
What if the delay in your life isn’t punishment, but preparation? In this episode of The Pursuit Podcast, Justin unpacks why becoming—not arriving—is the true assignment. Drawing from the life of Jesus and biblical truth, he reveals how God uses hidden seasons, pruning, and process to shape character before promotion.
If you’ve ever felt stuck between the promise and the payoff, this episode will give you the language, perspective, and practices you need to see your season differently. You’ll learn how to reframe silence, surrender your timeline, and honor where you are without losing sight of where you’re headed.
Becoming is not a detour. Becoming is the point. And if you’re in the middle of it, then you're right on time!
