If you find yourself on the fence about your faith, if you suspect that you’re living half-in and half-out with your faith, if you’re not totally confident that you know Jesus one to one, then this is the podcast for you. Tanner shares stories of his time as a collegiate baseball player, professional comedian, and avid surfer with various friends as they dissect how God—and only God—brings a lasting sense of fulfillment.","_fireside":{"subtitle":"Find God's Love in Your Restless Life","pubdate":"2024-11-22T05:00:00.000-05:00","explicit":false,"owner":"Tanner Kalina","image":"https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-images-2024/podcasts/images/5/51e1b733-a2d9-44b2-b778-4bc66a8a8e9e/cover.jpg?v=1"},"items":[{"id":"14a5a831-5dd9-4bca-b173-64979282fbed","title":"Ep. 6 Living on Mission featuring John Donahue","url":"https://achingforgreatness.fireside.fm/achingforgreatnesskalinaandjohndonahue","content_text":"John Donahue is the mastermind behind Truth Charting, a social media channel creating some of the best Catholic content you can find.
