Q on Queue

Have you ever played Scrabble and felt the rush of laying down the perfect word? Scrabble is more than just a test of vocabulary; it’s a game that shows the real power of words. What makes Scrabble fascinating is that every letter and every placement matters. In the same way, in life, the words we choose and how we arrange them can open doors, shape relationships, and even define our reputation. Words are small, but they carry a lot of weight.

Today we use Scrabble as a guide to talk about why words matter. We’ll look at how they carry power, why strategy and intentionality matter, and how they have the potential to shape our identity and legacy.

After a summer break, WE'RE BACK! There's 2 more episodes left in our Summer Games series...

This week, we reflect on this question: "What am I really aiming for right now?" Summer can get us off track. To be honest, we can spend a lot of our energy chasing moments that feel exciting in the short term but don’t leave us with much lasting meaning. We stay busy, we keep moving, and yet sometimes we realize we’ve been firing off effort and attention in a hundred different directions without really locking in on what matters most.

That’s what today’s episode is all about. Because life, in many ways, works a lot like the game of Battleship. We each have a limited number of moves, a limited amount of energy, and an invisible board we’re trying to navigate. The difference between spinning our wheels and moving toward our purpose often comes down to one thing: aim.

And... we're back! The third episode in our summer games series is now live. There’s something so simple, yet so enjoyable about a game of Checkers. Unlike so many games out there, there are no complicated rules, no major power pieces, and no elaborate strategies. And yet, beneath that simplicity lies a powerful reflection of life itself. Every day, we are making moves - sometimes cautious, one step at a time, and sometimes bold, leaping over obstacles in the way - all shaping the future we're stepping into. This week, we explore how this simple game of Checkers can teach us some profound lessons about life, growth, courage, and even faith.

An all-new Q on queue is now online! In this second episode of the summer series centered around board games, we take a look at Jenga, focusing on what it means to build a life with intention. We’ll talk about the importance of strong foundations, the danger of small unchecked shifts, the daily work of balance, and how to respond when things fall apart. Whether your tower feels steady right now or a little shaky, it’s my hope that this conversation will help you step back, reflect, and make sure you’re building on what matters most.

One of my family's favorite activities is playing board games. So, our series this summer will be bsed on titles of some of the most popular games ever. We kick it off this week with an episode called “Connect 4”. It covers four important messages related to connections in our lives. Just like the classic game, building strong connections in life requires intentionality, strategy, and a little bit of fun. We'll focus on Connecting with Others, Connecting with God, Connecting with Self, and the power of Disconnecting to focus on what matters.

If you to refocus your connections or know someone who could be inspired to do so, check it out (or share it), or both!

As always, it's available on YouTube, through most major podcast providers, and at qonqueue.com.

We often moments of sacred quiet - the times after a big moment has passed, when one season ends and another is set to begin - we try to force clarity or hurry into what’s next. But maybe this pause isn’t a problem to fix. Maybe it’s a gift. Maybe we just need to RECALIBRATE.

This week, we discuss why it's important to give ourselves permission to pause - just long enough to listen, look inward, and find our footing before we move forward again. The best journeys, at least the most meaningful ones, don’t begin with motion. They begin with direction. And that starts when we choose to recalibrate.

After a few weeks off, we're back!

In our new two-part series, we’re going to look at the “what’s next”... whether it’s coming down from a peak moment, stepping away from something big or meaningful, or moving into a new season… In this first part of our new series, we’re going to look at the silence after the big moment - about the sacred in the “after.” Because when the music fades, what’s left isn’t emptiness - it’s often the beginning of something deeper. And if we’re willing to listen, the quiet can speak louder than the song ever did.

A question that I've found myself asking a lot in the past few years is "What Now?" We often ask that question in the moments and days after big and monumental moments.

In this new series, we take a look at the time after big moments happen. Whether it's a big life moment like a wedding, graduation, or anniversary, or a major holiday like Christmas or Easter, how do we live with purpose once the celebration is over? What happens after the high fades, and the real world returns?

Join us for "What Now?", starting Monday, April 28, wherever you listen to your favorite podcast.

There is no new episode this week, but as we approach Easter, I encourage you to check out this flashback episode from 2021.

Did you ever think about how the story of Easter can be a story for you? When we’re told to rise up and challenged to hope, do we instantly turn to the negative - think we’re a failure… do we think only about the times we’ve fallen down? Do we think we’re not good enough? Or do we take it as an opportunity to grow, to learn, to become better… to rise up? In reflecting on Easter and the resurrection, give a listen to how you can “rise up” to what and who God has called you to be.

Several years ago, I felt genuinely led to start this podcast. It wasn't just a creative outlet - it was a calling. Since then, I’ve been given message after message: lessons that inspire, challenge, and encourage. Each episode has been a chance to speak truth, share faith, and hopefully bring light to someone's day.

I'll be honest - life gets busy, and listenership isn’t what it once was. But the heart behind this podcast hasn’t changed. The messages still matter. And I believe someone out there still needs to hear them.

So if Q on Queue has ever meant something to you…
If a past episode encouraged you…
Or if you believe in the power of meaningful conversation…
Would you do two small things?
➡️ Keep listening
➡️ Share it with someone else

Your support helps this podcast keep going, and more importantly, helps the message reach those who might really need it.

Thank you for being part of the journey. Let’s keep going - one episode at a time. 🎧

To everything there is a season… It’s a simple truth, but one that speaks volumes. Life isn’t static - it flows, it shifts, it transforms. Some seasons are filled with joy and abundance, others with loss, waiting, or uncertainty. We often don’t choose the seasons we walk through, but we can trust that each one has a purpose.

There are seasons where we plant seeds in faith, not yet seeing fruit. There are seasons where we must let go of what once was, even when it hurts. And then, there are seasons of renewal, where what felt dormant springs to life again, in ways we never expected.

If you’re in a hard season, know this: it will not last forever. Seasons change. Healing comes. Hope rises. And God, who holds time in His hands, walks with us through them all - teaching us, shaping us, and preparing us for what’s next.

Don’t rush the season you’re in. Trust that even now, something is being cultivated within you that will bloom in time. 🌿

All-new episode is now online! Let’s be honest - shifting into Drive sounds exciting, but it’s not always the easiest thing to do. For a lot of us, it’s actually the hardest gear to live in. There’s something safe about being in Park. There’s something oddly comforting about looking backward in Reverse. But Drive? Drive requires action. Movement. Risk. It requires us to take our foot off the brake, step on the gas, and trust that we’re heading somewhere meaningful.

In this final episode of the "Shifting Gears" series, we talking about shifting into "Drive". Being in Drive can be exciting but also super intimidating. Because once you’re in Drive, you’re moving forward. There’s momentum. There’s no more sitting still, no more hiding in the rearview mirror. We were created to move forward with purpose, direction, and faith.
