  • Best Bible podcast!

    I’ve listened to every single episode in 2025 and my relationship with Jesus has never been stronger. Emma, her guests, and the other guest hosts breakdown every passage with clear exegesis and application. Join the Journey is legit!

  • Join The Journey- THANK YOU Watermark Community Church!

    Watermark Staff and church family: I am not a member but I have listened to YOTW podcast since Sept 8th when you all were in Amos. One of your members told me about this and the app.

    I was attending one of your ministries on Monday nights that while it was hard I became a Christian on Oct. 30th. Thank you for making this available for even those of us that aren’t members.

  • I found a friend who keeps me engaged with awe about the Word!

    I have been praying for so long that I would find a friend I could learn about the Bible with, ask questions to, and get insightful answers from - daily! I thank God I found Emma and this podcast! No, I cannot personally ask Emma the questions, but she sure is asking them on my behalf! The “prompts” given to the guests in the Podcast are questions I’ve had for years; and the answers Emma or the guests give, have brought me to new revelation knowledge of God’s Word. With the Join the Journey App... more

  • So helpful!

    I love listening to the podcast daily (except Sundays) and appreciate the insight provided in each episode. Emma is an amazing host & I love getting to hear from so many different people in our body who join as guests. I especially loved Wes Butler’s takeover with the Care Team ministries & other themed guests like the worship team & Watermark Health.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S5:056 — What is biblical prophecy? (Acts 21:1-16)
Q: Has prophecy changed from the Old Testament to the New Testament?
The discussion explores differing views: some see prophecy as continuing with authoritative weight alongside apostles, others view it as a guidance tool limited by the closed canon, with testing by Scripture and community essential.
S5:056 — What is biblical prophecy? (Acts 21:1-16)
Q: Before we get to the key moment in this text, would you catch us up? What's happening here?
Paul is journeying toward Jerusalem after parting ways with the Ephesian elders; Agabus prophesies hardship if he continues, yet Paul proceeds driven by personal conviction.
S5:052 — What it’s like to be a missionary in Japan
Q: What does ministry look like in Tokyo right now?
The team is focused on building and strengthening churches around universities, training Japanese elders and pastors, doing evangelism through one-on-one relationships, and equipping local believers to lead communities.
S5:049 — What does the Bible say about demons? (Acts 19:11-20, Part 1)
Q: Starting with who or what are demons?
Demons are created beings, likely fallen angels, with origins debated in scripture; they are real and opposed to God, and believers must discern their nature.
S5:042 — Why do churches send missionaries? (Acts 17:1-15, Part 2)
Q: How does Watermark implement being a sending church here in Dallas?
Watermark runs a multi-phase pathway—Discover Missions class, a hands-on disciple-making phase, and a nine-month mobilization program with partner agencies—to prepare and send missionaries while keeping church oversight and ongoing support.
