THE PODCAST

Honest to God conversations about the Bible and real life.

In partnership with our friends at InterVarsity Press.

Some questions are too big for a quick answer.

You Asked, Let’s Talk is a podcast from Clear Faith Foundation where real questions about God, the Bible, faith, and real life become thoughtful conversations.

Hosted by Bobby McGraw, each episode begins with a question someone is actually asking and brings in trusted voices to help us think it through.

Job or Calling: What’s the Difference? | Brad Lomenick

How do you know what you’re supposed to do with your life without letting what you do become who you are? Leadership expert Brad Lomenick joins Bobby McGraw to talk about calling, identity, work, and what happens when an assignment that once felt right no longer fits. 

Brad shares how looking for “breadcrumbs” from earlier in life can reveal gifts and patterns that have been there all along, and why your calling is bigger than any job title or season.

Why Are Christians So Judgmental? | Greg Jao

Why do Christians sometimes come across as so judgmental, especially toward people who believe, live, or think differently?

Bobby McGraw sits down with Greg Jao of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship to talk about disagreement, cultural blind spots, curiosity, and holding real convictions without reducing people to their worst ideas.

Greg shares how his Chinese American upbringing taught him that sincere Christians can read the same Bible through different cultural lenses. He also explains why Christians need to acknowledge where the church has caused real harm and how humility can open conversations that defensiveness shuts down.

For anyone interested in Jesus but turned off by Christians, Greg offers a simple encouragement: keep looking, keep asking questions, and do not let someone else’s failures end your curiosity.

Is God Punishing Me? | Suzanne Nadell

When something painful happens, it is easy to wonder: Did I do something wrong? Is God punishing me? Bobby McGraw sits down with Suzanne Nadell to talk about that question through the lens of her own story, including two separate cancer diagnoses, years of uncertainty, and a faith that changed along the way.

Suzanne shares honestly about being angry with God, powering through pain, and learning to slow down enough to process what was actually happening. She also reflects on how suffering clarified her sense of purpose and taught her to receive help from others. For anyone facing a diagnosis, disappointment, or season that simply feels unfair, this conversation offers a reminder that hardship is not proof that God has abandoned you.

What Does God Want Me to Do With My Life? | Dr. Jennifer Keitt

What does God want me to do with my life, especially when the path I’m on no longer feels right? Bobby McGraw sits down with Dr. Jennifer Keitt to talk about success, purpose, waiting, emotions, and learning to recognize God’s direction when life stops making sense.

Jennifer takes us back to age 27, when she had checked every box but still found herself deeply dissatisfied. What followed was what she calls her “summer of chaos,” a season that changed the direction of her life. She shares how God used waiting, trial and error, Scripture, relationships, and even disorientation to shape her next steps. For anyone wondering whether they are behind, missing God, or simply unsure what to do next, this conversation offers a different way to think about finding purpose.

The conversation is connecting

★★★★★

“I listened while driving home from work, and I kept thinking, ‘This is the kind of conversation I wish I’d heard years ago.’ It didn’t feel like someone was trying to win me over. It felt like they were actually taking the question seriously and giving me room to think.”

— Rachel, 34

★★★★★

“I grew up around church, so I know the usual answers. But some of those answers stopped working when life got more complicated. What I appreciated about this podcast is that nobody rushed past the hard parts. It felt thoughtful, but still normal enough that I could send it to a friend.”

— Marcus, 61

★★★★★

“I’m not sure where I land with faith right now, but I do know I’m still interested. This felt like a safe place to listen without having to agree with everything right away. I liked that the conversation sounded like real people talking, not a sermon disguised as a podcast.”

— Jenna, 29
