About The Podcast

Jake Kegg’s uncle lived a life beset by addiction and marked by tragedy, but through all those tribulations he trusted in—and was grateful for—God’s redemption. That inspired Jake to build a life centered around sharing God’s love with others, and today he and his wife are doing just that, leading small ministry groups with children, adults, and couples alike. This week Jake and Redeemed director Nate Dewberry discuss a variety of topics ranging from building healthy habits and finding one’s God-given purpose to overcoming disappointment and the self-doubt that, without us even realizing it, can draw us away from a deeper relationship with the Lord.
