In this episode, Scott drops a spiritual sledgehammer on why we resist the simplest yet most powerful practices: prayer, meditation, and self-reflection. Why do we keep avoiding the very medicine that saves us? Why do we keep dragging around the Amazon box of our own pain, pretending we’re running from something outside us?

This is about confronting the old self, throwing him off, and stepping into the new. The call isn’t to be perfect — it’s to show up scared and take the step anyway. Always forward. Never back.

💥 Topics we hit:

• The real cost of avoiding spiritual practice
• Why prayer and meditation require almost no effort — and still get resisted
• Self-belief vs God’s belief in you
• Running from pain vs learning the lesson
• How to hear God's voice in the chaos
• The myth of the “magic bullet” in spirituality
• What all ancient wisdom says in unison

🙏 If you're looking for the courage to face yourself, this one’s for you.

In this episode, Scott unpacks one of the rawest, most powerful moments in scripture — Luke 23:43 — where a dying thief turns to Jesus and simply says, “Remember me.” No perfect prayer. No religious performance. Just pain, honesty, and surrender.

This is about the real gospel — the one that meets you in the mess.
It’s not about being clean or holy. It’s about being willing.

Scott reflects on how God’s love showed up in his own brokenness, why FTG was born out of that chaos, and what it means to turn toward something greater in your darkest hour.

Whether you’re in recovery, wrestling with your faith, or just trying to make peace with God — this one is for you.

Listen if you’ve ever asked:

• Can God love someone like me?
• What if I don’t pray the “right” way?
• How do I find spiritual truth outside of religion?

In this Rip Clip we unpack the brutal truth about addiction’s promise of power—and how it always comes up empty.

Addiction gives you the summit in seconds, then rips you back to the bottom. We talk about the cycle of chasing okayness through bottles, baggies, and bullshit... and how the real power was never out there to begin with.

This is about breaking the curriculum of instant gratification. About learning to climb the damn mountain—step by step, pain by pain—because that’s where the treasure is hidden.

God isn’t in the high.
He’s buried in the hurt you won’t face.
And peace? You can’t steal it.
You have to become it.
