S3 • E7 | The Land I Will Show You (Genesis 12) 12.09.2026 18минToday we're sitting in Genesis 12 — the call of Abram. God walks up to a seventy-five-year-old man and asks him to leave his country, his people, and everything that ever made him feel safe, and start walking toward a place He won't even name yet. We get into why God gives you the first step instead of the whole map, how this ties right back to the tower from last week — they grabbed for a name and lost it, Abram opened his hands and God filled them — and why it is never too late, because Abram's whole legacy came after seventy-five.And I don't skip the messy part. The same man who trusted God with his whole life turned around and lied out of fear a few verses later. If you took a step of obedience and then stumbled right after, this one's for you.Next time — God takes Abram outside in the dark and tells him to count the stars.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E6 | The Tower You're Building (Genesis 10–11) 23.07.2026 16минThat feeling that you gotta build something. Gotta be somebody. That if you can just hit the number, get the business where it needs to be, get people to look at you a certain way, then you'll finally be able to breathe.Genesis 11 is about a whole civilization that felt exactly that. They said it out loud: let's make a name for ourselves. And Robert's honest about the fact that he's built that tower too, and what it cost him.We get into why they really built it (it wasn't pride, it was fear), the line where God has to come down to look at the tallest thing humans ever built, and why God scattering them might've been mercy instead of punishment. Then the turn at the end of the chapter that changes everything: a whole city tried to make a name and lost it, and a few verses later God walks up to a nobody and just hands him one.If something you built is coming apart right now, or you're just tired of stacking bricks to prove you're worth something, this one's for you.Next episode, Genesis 12. God tells a seventy-five-year-old man with no kids to leave everything he knows.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E5 | The God Who Shut the Door (Genesis 6–9) 11.07.2026 15минBefore God ever sent the rain, He'd already drawn up the rescue.Genesis 6 through 9 — Noah, the ark, the flood, and the promise still hanging in the sky every time it rains. We walk it slow and pull out what the felt-board version left behind: how "covenant" shows up here for the very first time in the whole Bible, and how God bound Himself to rescue before the first drop ever fell. The tender line most people miss — that Noah didn't shut the ark's door, God did. And the three words the entire flood turns on: "But God remembered."Then the picture you've seen a hundred times and never really read. That "rainbow" is the Hebrew word for a war bow — a weapon. And God hung it up, pointed away, turning an instrument of judgment into a promise of peace.For anyone walking with God alone, worn out trying to seal their own safety, or stuck in the waiting room of a rescue that isn't finished yet — this one's for you.Next episode — the tower of Babel, and what happens when we try to make a name for ourselves.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E4 | Crouching at the Door (Genesis 4–6) 05.07.2026 12минGod told a man exactly how to stop the worst thing he'd ever do — and he did it anyway.Genesis 4 through 6. Cain and Abel, the first murder, and how the world went dark fast. This episode we get into the stuff underneath the story: the difference between your first and your leftovers, and why God saw it in the very first offering ever made. The predator picture God gives for sin — "crouching at your door" — and the gap where you still hear that same warning today.Then the slide. How one man's fed jealousy becomes, four generations later, a guy bragging about violence — and a whole world where every thought was "only evil all the time." Sin doesn't stay the same size. It compounds.But the dark isn't the last word. There's a thread of people who still call on God's name — and three of the most important words in the book: "But Noah found favor."You've got a gap between what you feel and what you do. This one's about what you do in it.Next episode — Noah, the flood, and the God who shuts the door.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E3 | Hide and Seek (Genesis 2–3) 04.07.2026 13минThe first thing sin ever did to a human being wasn't make him bad. It made him hide.Genesis 2 and 3 — the garden, and the worst day in human history. This episode we walk it slow and pull out the stuff most people read right past: why work showed up before anything went wrong (and what that means for your grind), why "helper" doesn't mean what you think, and the exact play the serpent ran in the garden — the same one he's still running on you.Then the heart of it: the chain reaction sin sets off in every one of us — guilt, shame, hiding, blame. It's why you feel the way you feel when you get caught. You didn't invent it. You inherited it.But God comes walking into the mess. His first words to a hiding man aren't "how could you." They're "where are you." And even inside the curse, He's already whispering that a Rescuer is coming.If you're tired of holding the costume together, this one's for you.Next episode — Genesis 4 through 6. The first murder, and how the world went dark.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E2 | Order in the Chaos (Genesis 1) 26.06.2026 14минThe very first thing God does in the entire Bible — He walks into a mess.Genesis 1 isn't the online argument about dinosaurs and timelines. It's the origin story of a God who moves toward chaos instead of waiting for it to clean itself up. This episode, we slow down on the opening of the whole Bible and pull out things most people read right past.The Hebrew underneath verse 2 — tohu va-vohu, "wild and waste" — and why you already know that feeling in your gut. The pattern hiding in the seven days that you can't unsee once you spot it. The word "created" that only ever has one subject in the whole Old Testament. And the single most important sentence ever written about your worth, settled before chapter 1 is even over: you carry the image of God.Serious knowledge, real reflection, and something to carry into your actual week — if your life right now feels formless and empty, this one's for you.On the day-vs-age question, we don't pick the fight everyone expects. We go after what Genesis 1 is actually answering: who made this, and why you're here.Next episode — Genesis 2 and 3. The garden, and the worst day in human history.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S3 • E1 | One More Minute in the Truck 22.06.2026 9минBefore Genesis. Before chapter one. Just a quick sit-down on what this season is and why it matters.Robert kicks off Season 3 with a confession — that thing he used to do in the driveway, truck still running, before walking back into a house full of people who needed him. It's the start of an honest conversation about chasing "providing" when God's actually calling you to lead, and how losing the business he built his life around became the soil this whole ministry grew out of.This season we walk through Genesis. Slow. One book at a time. Not the online argument version — the origin story of your actual life. Marriage, family, work, jealousy, betrayal, waiting on a promise that's taking too long. It all starts here.Every episode, three things: you'll understand it, you'll see yourself in it, and you'll walk away with something for your actual Tuesday — not just your Sunday.Next episode, we open Genesis 1.Real Faith • Real Life.Grow your faith → faithinthefields.com -
S2 • 15 (finale) | Faith With Your Boots On 06.06.2026 14минYou can listen to fifteen podcasts. Read your Bible every day. Know all the right verses, post all the right things, say all the right prayers. And your life can still look exactly the same. Because knowing isn’t the same as doing — and God didn’t call us to know about Him. He called us to walk with Him. In this Season 2 finale, Robert shares the story of the injury that ended one life and started another, the moment Faith in the Fields was born out of the rubble, and what it actually looks like to put faith on the ground. James 1. Joshua 1. And a tease for Season 3. -
S2 • E14 | What Comes After You Let Go? 13.05.2026 14минYou gave your heart to Jesus. You meant it. So why are you still angry? Still worried? Still struggling with the same stuff? In this episode, Robert walks through a conversation with his wife and a tearful moment with his oldest son to answer the question most of us are too afraid to ask out loud: if I really surrendered, why am I still like this? From Genesis 4 to Proverbs 3, this one's for anyone who's been told surrender is the finish line — and is starting to suspect that wasn't the whole story. -
S2 • E13 | Letting Go of Control 17.04.2026 10минWhat do you do when life hits you with something you can’t fix?In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we talk about one of the hardest parts of faith—letting go of control.After walking through the loss of his grandfather, Robert shares a deeply personal moment of standing in the hospital, wanting to fix what couldn’t be fixed… and realizing that some situations aren’t ours to control.Through Scripture and real-life experience, this episode explores:• Why we naturally try to control outcomes• How control can quietly replace trust• What it looks like to surrender—even when it hurts• And how peace begins when we finally let goFeaturing powerful verses like Proverbs 3:5–6, Psalm 46:10, and 1 Peter 5:7, this conversation is not about having all the answers—it’s about trusting God when you don’t.If you’re in a season where life feels uncertain, heavy, or out of your hands… this episode will meet you right there.You don’t have to understand everything.You just have to trust the One who does. -
S2 • E12 | The Cost of Following God 12.04.2026 11минEveryone wants God’s plan… until it costs them something.In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we take an honest look at what it really means to follow God—not just in the moments that feel good, but in the moments that require surrender.Jesus makes it clear in Luke 9:23 that following Him isn’t about convenience. It’s about denying ourselves, taking up our cross daily, and choosing obedience even when it’s uncomfortable.Through Scripture and real-life reflection, we unpack the true cost of following God:• Letting go of comfort• Releasing control• Trusting Him when it doesn’t make sense• And sometimes walking a different path than those around usThis episode isn’t about fear or pressure—it’s about clarity.Because while following God may cost you something… not following Him will cost you more.If you’ve been feeling the pull to step into something deeper, but hesitation keeps holding you back—this conversation will meet you right where you are.You don’t need the full plan.Just the willingness to trust God with the next step. -
S2 • E11 | What God Is Doing While We Wait 20.03.2026 11минIn this Episode we talk about what God is doing during the waiting season and we dive into the things that God is building inside of us to make sure we have everything we need to be able to carry our blessing. We talk about how sometimes God has to build whats inside of us before he can build the things around us. -
S2 • E10 | Why God’s Timing Feels So Slow 17.03.2026 8минHave you ever prayed for something and wondered why God hasn’t answered yet?In this episode of Faith in the Fields, we talk about one of the hardest parts of faith — waiting on God’s timing. When prayers seem unanswered and life doesn’t move as quickly as we hope, it can be easy to question whether God is working at all.Through the story of Abraham and powerful scripture like Ecclesiastes 3:11 and Romans 5:3–4, we explore why seasons of waiting are often the very moments when God is shaping our faith, our character, and our future.Sometimes what feels like a delay is actually preparation.If you’re in a season where it feels like God is silent or slow to move, this episode will remind you that God’s timing is never random — and He is always working behind the scenes. -
S2 • E9 | God Uses Broken People 16.03.2026 6минCan God still use someone who has made mistakes?In Faith in the Fields — S2 • E9, Robert Cole explores one of the most powerful truths found throughout the Bible: God consistently works through broken and imperfect people.From Moses to David to Peter, scripture is filled with examples of individuals who struggled, doubted, and failed—yet God still used their lives in incredible ways.This episode also takes listeners to Romans 8:1, a verse that reminds us that in Christ there is no condemnation for our past mistakes.Through scripture, reflection, and encouragement, this conversation reminds us that our failures do not cancel God’s purpose for our lives. Sometimes the very moments we feel most broken are the places where God begins rebuilding something new. -
S2 • E8 | What Happens When We Ignore God? 13.03.2026 4минWhat happens when we ignore God’s voice?In Faith in the Fields — S2 • E8, Robert Cole explores the story of Jonah and what it teaches us about running from God’s calling.Building on the previous episodes about hearing God’s voice, this conversation looks at the moments when we sense God guiding us but choose another path.Through scripture and personal reflection, Robert explains how ignoring God’s guidance often leads to unnecessary storms in our lives—but also how God’s grace continues to pursue us even when we run.This episode reminds us that our mistakes don’t disqualify us from God’s purpose. Sometimes the path back begins with simply turning around and listening. -
S2 • E7 | How Do You Actually Hear God’s Voice? 12.03.2026 5минHow do you actually hear God’s voice?In Faith in the Fields — S2 • E7, Robert Cole explores one of the most common questions believers ask: how does God communicate with us today?Building on the previous episode about the battle between the voices that influence our lives, this conversation dives deeper into how God often speaks in ways that are much quieter than we expect.Through scripture and reflection, Robert examines the powerful story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, where God did not appear in the wind, the earthquake, or the fire—but instead through a gentle whisper.This episode also explores how God guides us through scripture, the Holy Spirit, conviction, and moments of quiet reflection, and why the noise of the world can make it difficult to recognize His voice.In a world full of distractions, learning how to slow down and listen may be one of the most important spiritual disciplines we can develop. -
S2 • E6 | The Voice We Choose to Listen To 11.03.2026 7минWhy do we so often make the wrong choices… even when we know better?In Faith in the Fields — S2 • E6, Robert Cole dives deeper into the battle between the voices that influence our decisions every day.Building on the conversation from the previous episode about free will and the Tree of Knowledge, Robert explores how temptation often begins with something small — a whisper of doubt, a moment of justification, or a quiet compromise.Through scripture and personal reflection, this episode examines how the enemy often speaks loudly, while God often speaks through a quiet whisper.Referencing the powerful story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, Robert reflects on how God meets us in our lowest moments and gently calls us back toward Him.This episode explores:• Why temptation begins with doubt• How small compromises can lead us off the path• Why God often speaks through a quiet whisper• How to recognize the voice that leads us toward life and purposeIn a world full of loud voices competing for our attention, learning which voice to follow may be one of the most important decisions we ever make. -
S2•E5 | Why Did God Put the Tree in the Garden? 09.03.2026 10минWhy would God create the Tree of Knowledge if He didn’t want Adam and Eve to eat from it?In this episode of Faith in the Fields — S2 • E5, Robert Cole explores one of the most misunderstood questions in the Bible: why God placed the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden.After a road trip conversation with his wife sparked the topic, Robert reflects on the deeper meaning behind free will, love, and the choices that shape our relationship with God.Through personal stories about early struggles in marriage, financial hardship, and a dark moment that nearly broke him, Robert shares how God used those experiences to draw him back to faith and purpose.Featuring scripture from Genesis 2:16–17, 1 Kings 19, and John 3:16, this episode reminds us that God never wanted forced obedience — He wanted a real relationship.And real love always requires a choice. -
S2•E4 – Why We Resist God (Even When We Know It’s Him) 20.02.2026 6минHave you ever known God was leading you to do something… and still didn’t do it?Not because you didn’t hear Him.Not because you didn’t believe.But because something inside you resisted it.In this episode, we take an honest look at what’s really happening beneath the surface when we delay obedience. Through Scripture and real-life application, we unpack the true reasons we resist God — fear, control, comfort, and pride — and how those things quietly hold us back.From Jonah running in the opposite direction to the repeated patterns of Israel in the wilderness, the Bible shows us that resistance isn’t new… but neither is God’s patience.This episode isn’t about guilt.It’s about clarity.If you’ve ever felt stuck, delayed, or unsure why you’re not moving forward in your faith — this conversation will meet you right where you are.Because the real question isn’t whether God is speaking…It’s whether we’re willing to obey. -
S2•E3 - Obedience When It Doesn’t Make Sense 20.02.2026 7минHave you ever felt like God was leading you in a direction…but nothing about it made sense?The timing feels off.The risk feels too big.And if you’re honest—you’re not even 100% sure you’re hearing Him right.This is the part of faith most people don’t talk about.In this episode, we slow down and walk through what Scripture actually says about obedience—especially in the moments where clarity is missing and doubt is loud.From Abraham being called to leave everything without a plan…to Israel struggling to trust God even after witnessing miracles…to Jesus Himself choosing obedience in the face of suffering…We see a pattern:God doesn’t always give full understanding—but He always calls for trust.This isn’t about blind faith or ignoring wisdom.It’s about learning how to take the next step… even when you don’t see the full path.If you’re in a season where you feel stuck between what makes sense and what you feel God leading you to do…this episode is for you.You don’t need the whole plan.Just the willingness to trust Him with the next step.
