  • Your time won’t be wasted

    I learned about Nothing is Wasted when a woman at church suggested the book. Got it and read it - in pieces, because man is it a hard story. Passed it on to another woman at church who is devouring it.

    And then we found out there was a podcast too!!

    We’re both listening to this now, me in the mornings while making breakfast and walking the dog.

    Thank you for sharing the redemption story of your family’s lives. Thank you to your guests for sharing theirs.

    We serve mighty mighty God.

  • Thankful Beyond Words

    This podcast is my lifeline in all seasons—particularly my “impossible.” In my weakness, our God is strong, and Davey’s words—in book and podcast—echo in my mind to point me back to Jesus, time and time again. Thank you, Davey, for your heart for Jesus and for proclaiming His goodness no matter the circumstance.

  • A broken-hearted mom who’s found purpose

    In May of 2020, my husband and I experienced the unimaginable pain of losing our 15-year-old son to suicide. Two years ago, I discovered the Nothing Is Wasted podcast, and I haven’t stopped listening since. Every episode has been a source of encouragement, insight, and deep healing. I often find myself taking notes because there is just so much wisdom shared by Davey and the incredible guests who generously open their hearts and stories.

    As career educators, my husband and I have since created ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

446 - Discipling Youth on the Streets with David Washington
Q: What makes the church's approach to urban ministry different and effective in your experience?
He highlights evangelism and discipleship as core, with church members living out the faith in the community, meeting people on their turf rather than waiting in a building, and mentoring through consistent, relationship-based interactions.
446 - Discipling Youth on the Streets with David Washington
Q: Tell us about yourself and how your ministry began in the inner city.
David Washington describes growing up in the Roseland community, his journey to faith, and how a church that moved into a crossfire zone became his foundation for discipling others and transforming lives.
Episode 445 - After Amen with Tyler Staton
Q: How have you seen the intersection of formation and care in crisis?
Formative spiritual practices undergird both care and crisis response; they prepare a person to walk with others in pain by forming character and attentiveness to God, not just addressing surface needs. The strongest care comes from a life shaped by contemplative disciplines that sustain us and others through trauma.
Episode 440 - How Attachment Can Move You into Confident Faith, Courage, and Connection with Geoff and Cyd Holsclaw
Q: What is the practical path from awareness to healing within the church context?
The path involves recognizing that attachment styles are not fixed destinies but malleable neural patterns. It requires compassionate self-reframing, repair of ruptures through community and spiritual practice, and integrating mental health insights with scriptural formation to guide people toward the pasture—the secure attachment where they can flourish.
Episode 440 - How Attachment Can Move You into Confident Faith, Courage, and Connection with Geoff and Cyd Holsclaw
Q: What does it require for someone to become aware of these landscapes and understand which one they inhabit?
Awareness comes from a combination of self-observation, feedback from others, and education about attachment patterns, followed by compassionate self-study. People need to understand how they process information, whether they tend to rely on social-emotional cues or on logical, verbal processing, and how those tendencies shape their spiritual life.
