We’ve been conditioned to equate noise with relevance and speed with success. But what if the most radical thing you could do today is be still? In a world addicted to hustle, silence is a sacred protest. It’s not absence—it’s awareness. It’s how we hear the voice we’ve been too busy to notice.

More Than a Pastor

On the AVAIL Podcast, guest Josh Surratt shares why leaders burn out—or cling too tightly—when their identity is tied to their title.

He explains the difference between who you are in Christ and the assignments God gives you for a season, and why recognizing the difference brings freedom and resilience.

If you’ve ever felt too broken to be used, too far gone to be loved, this story is for you. Read it in the Fall 2025 issue of the AVAIL Journal at www.AVAILJournal.com.

Loss has a way of exposing what we’ve truly been leaning on. When comfort disappears and the noise fades, what’s left behind reveals the real foundation. Sometimes, the ache of absence uncovers the idols we never meant to worship—and offers us a path back to the One who never leaves.

Faith Needs Trust

In this conversation on the AVAIL Podcast, Chris Binion reminds us that faith isn’t the finish line—it’s where we begin.

We may believe God can move, but trust is our response: taking the first step, obeying, and giving Him our yes.

You can measure attendance. You can tally tithes. But what if Heaven’s metrics are different? Maybe it’s time to recalibrate—to shift from counting what’s easy to measuring what actually matters. Faithfulness. Sacrifice. Obedience. Eternity doesn't echo applause for the biggest numbers—it resounds with “well done.”

The life of faith isn’t about mastering every answer—it’s about walking honestly with the questions. Jesus Himself taught more with questions than with statements, showing us that curiosity is holy. Mystery keeps us humble, dependent, and open to peace that surpasses understanding.
