Don't You Worry

Here it is—Episode 62: the MERCH DROP 🎉

“Worry Expires.” That’s the banner over this whole conversation and the brand-new hoodie we’ve been quietly building for months. Briley & Britton pull back the curtain on the creative chaos, the why behind the phrase, and the hope that fuels it—rooted in Revelation 21:1–4. From the original “Fighting Words” series to stories of real wrestles with anxiety, this episode is part testimony, part pep talk, and part launch party for a wearable reminder that in Jesus, sorrow has a sunset.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Can a campus feel big and small at the same time? Briley just toured Samford University in Birmingham, and she’s spilling all the tea—tour day surprises, faith-forward vibes, and why “big and small” might be the perfect college sweet spot.

From meeting the university president to mini-touring across those brick-lined paths, Briley shares what photos can’t: warm student hosts, real conversations, and a community where professors actually know your name (and your story). We get into standout stats (hello, ~97–98% freshman retention and strong career prep), plus the fun stuff—Birmingham hangs, a new church visit, and a d...

When your dreams fall apart, could it be because God’s are better?

In this powerful and joy-filled episode, Briley and Britton sit down with Eden Benton, a Liberty University student, writer, and event coordinator, whose story of surrender and redirection will leave you inspired and in awe of God’s faithfulness.

Eden shares her journey from chasing a dream at Clemson to facing anxiety, disappointment, and a complete life pivot—all leading her to discover her true calling in ministry. Through tears, prayer, and one unforgettable word from the Lord, Eden learned that obedience often...

It’s the last mini-sode of the month, and we’re ending on the best news there is. 🎉 In this short, joy-filled conversation, Briley and Britton share their personal salvation stories—how the gospel moved from “something we heard” to “Someone we know.” We walk through the simple, beautiful truth of the gospel and make it clear enough to send to a friend who’s curious or needs hope today.

In this episode:

It’s a Britton Takeover! With Briley buried in college homework, Britton hops on mic (with Dad as co-host) for a short + sweet minisode all about identity and core values—and how naming yours can change the way you show up every day.

We walk through the simple exercise Britton used to map her story—highs, lows, what she loved and what drove her crazy—to uncover her four core values: Joy (bring laughter + life), Connection (people over tasks), Movement (stewarding her body through dance + activity), and Excellence (pursuing mastery for impact, not applause).

You’ll hear:<...

It’s mini-sode time and we’re debriefing all things FALL 🍂 From that first crisp morning to pumpkin drinks, UGGs, Friday Night Lights, Gilmore Girls marathons, and stocking the pantry with every seasonal snack (yes, even football brownies 😂). Briley and Britton share what’s getting them in the autumn mood, favorite student-section themes, and what they’re most excited for in the months ahead—beach trips, birthdays, performances, and making cozy memories with their people.

We also chat about being intentional in a busy season: showing love in your friends’ love languages, being present (phones down!), working hard at school and...

Mini-sode #2 is live! ⛳️ Briley is on the mic solo (Britton’s out sick—send tea + prayers!), but she brought in a special co-host: Dad. Fresh off the golf course (Zaxby’s in hand, not a sponsor… yet 😅), they dive into why golf has Briley’s dad hooked for life—and how the game quietly trains your heart for real life with Jesus.

From “grip it and rip it” tee shots to soft hands on the green, you’ll hear practical parallels for your everyday: when to go for it, when to dial it back, and how micro-moments add up to big wins. They...

We’re trying something NEW this month — welcome to our very first mini-sode! 🎉 September is packed with golf, dance, school, and college classes (life is FULL), but we couldn’t leave y’all hanging. So we’re dropping shorter episodes filled with quick encouragement, fresh perspective, and a little devotional thought to keep you going.

In this episode, Briley and Britton share a mind-blowing connection between the very beginning of the Bible (Genesis 1–2) and the very end (Revelation 21–22). From creation to new creation, from light spoken into existence to the glory of God being our eternal light, this heavenly per...

She’s back! 🎉 In this episode, Briley and Britton sit down once again with their friend Kate Downing—student minister, camp leader, Bible study writer, and overall joy-bringer. From leading hundreds of teenagers at camp to launching her brand-new Bible study on Nehemiah, Kate shares her heart on fear, faith, and why popcorn + marshmallows is the ultimate small group snack.

This conversation is packed with encouragement for anyone stepping into a new school year, leading a Bible study, or just needing the reminder that our fears don’t have to control us—because God already holds our attention a...

One year ago, we sat down with Sawyer Grace Simmons as she was stepping into her senior year of high school. Now she’s back—fresh off graduation, packed for college, and ready to share everything she’s learned along the way.
