In Part 2 of our conversation with longtime friend Paul Young, we explore what it truly means to trust a God who never leaves. Together, we unpack how faith is more than just belief, it’s learning to rest in the love and presence of Jesus, even when life feels chaotic or overwhelming. From the storms we face to the deep wounds of our past, we reflect on how God’s unchanging goodness and self-giving love can restore trust, bring peace, and transform our hearts.

This week on Across All Worlds, we flip the script and put co-host Jason Clark in the hot seat. Dive in as David gets Jason to open up about faith, creativity and pivotal moments in his life that have impacted both his calling and his story.

Foundational Christian beliefs can be greatly misunderstood, and grace is no exception.  This video looks at why we complicate the things of God, our misunderstanding of grace, and the reality of what God’s grace is, His defining and empowering of our lives.

Jesus says to His followers, “As the Father sent me, so send I you.” And so, how did He conquer? Read John 1:35-51. 1)He went for a walk; maybe you could go for a walk in your neighbor’s world. 2) He asked questions; maybe you could ask your neighbor, “What is it that you want?” 3) He invited folks to “come and see.” 4) He valued incompetence. 5) He made people competent. 6) He wasn’t easily offended. 7) He celebrated honesty. 8) He recognized the Kingdom at hand: God’s dream planted in His neighbor’s heart. 9) He is the Kingdom at hand: God’s dream planted in the heart of Adam.

He said to Nathaniel, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see the heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending (NOT on a piece of real estate) on the Son of Man.” I think He’s saying, “I am Israel, and I am the firstborn from whom you stole the birthright. I am the presence of the Father from whom you stole the blessing. I am your birthright and blessing. I am the edge of the Promised Land: Eden. I am taking you home to the Tree of Life in the middle of the Garden. I am the Son of God, and the Son of Man. God is my Father. Man is my mother. You, Adam, will give birth to me and all things with me. I am the decision to humble oneself and join the dance.”

There is an old Jerusalem built with stones, and it’s been condemned. And there is a New Jerusalem descending from God even now. It is your birthright, and it’s filled with the blessing which includes every Jew and every Arab; it includes Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau, Cain and Abel. “For whatever you do to the least of these my brothers,” says the firstborn, “you do to me.”

10) He invited folks to come and see His heart. And sometimes a body has to be broken for a heart to be revealed.

In this conversation, hosted by Bob Switzer and Jason, David Hewitt discusses the message of his new book, Ultimate Rest. They guys dive into living from a place of union with God. David emphasizes that the gospel is an announcement of what God has already done, and our role is to awaken to the rest that is already available to us in Christ. David highlights the importance of living in the overflow of God’s love and grace, rather than striving to earn His favor. He encourages a relational approach to sharing the gospel, where we authentically live out our identity in Christ and allow God to work through us.
