81 | How to Search for a Job (and Meaning) - Mega-tactical with Luke
If the data can be trusted, we’ll all find ourselves job searching, more than once, in our 20s (and 30s too). In this episode, we brought in Luke from a long-term undercover assignment job-searching to get a tactical download. Like, what job-searching sites are statistically reliable? How do you beat candidate-filtering algorithms? What’s a decent application/interview ratio? It’s all pretty darn helpful. Not jobless? Doesn’t matter. We dig in to keeping the heart alive in off seasons, the meaning of work, and how work relates to a vocation over time. Oh, by the way, And Sons is a print magazine. Haven’t subscribed?

Initiating Boys – Part 2
In this second podcast, John and Morgan offer tangible ways to help boys become young men.
80 | Kim Woodard Osterholzer: Birth, Dudes
Two things are given in human experience. Birth and death. Our culture doesn’t spend much time thinking about either one. And neither, to be honest, do we. Not until we have to. Which is a problem. If there were two events framing every human life you’d think we’d spend the necessary time to understand them. In this episode, we roped in midwife/writer Kim Osterholzer to map out the territory. This isn’t health class. There’s no test at the end. In this episode, we ask more about the nature and meaning of birth than the way its done, the things people should know about it, and why it matters. It’s a revelatory talk. As men, it’s vital that we make ourselves students of the feminine soul. Birth is, after all, God’s plan for populating eternity with his image. It’s a space that reveals the power of the feminine soul to create the future, in relationship, and it turns out men have a role. Wild stuff.
Initiating Boys – Part 1
In this foundational new series, John and Morgan discuss an intentional process for maturing boys at each age and stage of life.
79 | The Everyday Voice of God
Here at And Sons there’s one question we get more than any other: How do I build conversational intimacy with God? Meaning normal, practical, chatty relationship. Hearing God is the basis for the rest of the Christian life. So of course we roped in John Eldredge to riff on steps to hearing His voice. From new categories for listening (playfulness, kindness) to basic relational skills (stress-free conversation, seeking confirmation) to stories from the field, this is one we’ll return to ourselves.

Part 3
Part 3 – Hope is for our soul as breathing is to our body – we cannot live without it. Hope is how we thrive. Paul even says that our faith and love spring from the hope we have in the coming Kingdom of God (Colossians 1:5). And yet, very few people actually think about the promised life that is coming to us. Our thoughts about "heaven" are so bland and boring, no wonder we aren't bursting with hope! In this powerful five-session series, John and Stasi Eldredge explore the beauty of the Kingdom of God that will soon be ours. Your heart will be filled with renewed hope and your spirit will soar at the sheer joy of it! But be warned. This isn't a series for passive listening… it's one you'll want to keep a journal handy and actively enter into. Through the sessions, John and Stasi invite you into times of prayer and introspection that will fill your heart with awe and anchor your hopes in the coming Kingdom.
