  • Charting Dignity: Contraband, Corrections, and the Image of God
    Mar 27 2026

    How does an encounter with God change the way you treat people in some of the darkest places on earth?

    In this episode, I talk with author Lee Monroe to explore his near-decade of experience as a corrections officer. We navigate the gritty realities of the prison system , uncovering wild contraband like homemade swords and D&D dice , and dispelling myths about what it means to be a "guard."

    Lee shares how his conversion to Christianity completely altered his interactions with inmates and shifted approach. We discuss the extreme tension between strict justice and unmerited grace.

    Check out Lee's Book:

  • Charting Life: Start Building the Story You Leave Behind
    Mar 13 2026

    For Episode 30, I am stepping out of the interview chair for a special solo reflection on the journey of Charting Life. I share my personal struggle with "analysis paralysis" and why the greatest lesson I’ve learned so far is the profound necessity of simply taking the first step. I have discovered that a 1% improvement is infinitely more valuable than 0%. I look back at some of the most impactful stories from past guests—from the heartbreaking realities of neglecting physical health for the sake of providing, to the objective beauty of a life well-lived to the very end. Along with my past guests, I attempt to answer the following questions (and invite you to do the same):

    • If you could spend the next year improving one area of your life, what would that be?
    • What does it mean to be "good"?
    • What is your final life advice to family and loved ones?

    Topics Discussed: Leaving a legacy, overcoming analysis paralysis, 1% better every day, incremental growth, physical health and family, the objective beauty of a well-lived life, Christian living, life advice, podcast milestone.

  • Charting Creativity: Can Boredom Be the Seed of Art?
    Feb 27 2026

    Does true creativity require absolute freedom, or do restrictions actually breed imagination?

    In this episode, I sit down with my friend and fellow "bearded bishop," Jonathan Baker, to redefine what it means to be an artist. Jonathan and I explore how the daily grind—from crunching numbers to driving a school bus—can become a canvas for the creative life we are meant to live. Ultimately, we chart a course toward finding the divine spark in the ordinary, everyday moments of life.
