From the cross… to everyday moments with friends, family, roommates, and strangers… real love always costs something.We talk about:why “God is love” changes everythinghow love shows up through sacrifice and servicethe importance of knowing how people receive lovewhy sharing your faith may be one of the greatest acts of love possibleand the powerful story in Luke 7 of the woman who gave Jesus everything she hadThis conversation challenged us deeply, and we hope it challenges you too.

And remind someone that they are deeply loved by God.We’re so excited to be back — and this series is just getting started.

This week, we’re getting real about something we all feel but don’t always know how to fight through: exhaustion.When school feels heavy, decisions feel overwhelming, motivation feels low, and life just keeps coming at you… how do you keep going?In this short but powerful episode, we talk honestly about what it means to endure when you’re tired, discouraged, or tempted to check out.

Let's Get Real - Dating
Okay… we said we were going to get real. So let’s get real.This week, we’re talking about dating — the icks, the red flags, the hot takes, the boundaries, the standards, the late-night FaceTimes, the “I can fix him” mindset… all of it.From Crocs and cussing to confidence and calling, we’re unpacking what actually matters in a relationship — and what doesn’t.We’re answering questions like:Should you date someone who isn’t a Christian?What’s the difference between being flirty and being friendly?Are you dating for potential… or for truth?Why should no relationship be a secret?And are we lowering our standards compared to past generations?We talk boundaries, leadership, maturity, slow love, 1950s-style romance, emotional wisdom, and why loving Jesus first changes everything.Some of these takes might be bold. Some might make you uncomfortable. Some might make you nod your head like, “Finally.”But at the end of the day, we’re not here for shallow dating advice. We’re here for relationships that honor God, protect your heart, and actually last.So whether you’re single, talking, dating, or just curious — this one’s for you.Let’s get real. 💛

Let's Get Real - Brain Dumping
Welcome to Episode 73 of the Don’t You Worry Podcast — and we’re kicking off a brand new mini-series called “Let’s Get Real.” No interviews. No fluff. Just Briley + Britton in the studio talking about the stuff that’s actually happening in our heads.This week’s topic: Brain Dumping. Because if we’re being honest… our brains stay loud. Thoughts stack up, fear spirals, “what-if’s” start sprinting, and suddenly you’re stressed about something you can’t even explain without sounding dramatic.In this episode, we unpack a simple but powerful practice we learned from Kate Downing’s Bible study Fighting with Fear: get it out → sort it out → take a step → pray it out.We talk about:why anxiety feels so real (even when it’s lying to you)the difference between what’s in your control vs. what’s God’s jobhow spiraling works (and how to stop feeding it)and why Job 38 is one of the most humbling reminders that God sees what we can’tAlso… we tell the story of Briley running down a hallway with her eyes closed and learning the hard way why trusting the guide matters. (Yes, there was a wall. Yes, there was a bump. Yes, it’s a whole metaphor.)So if your mind has been crowded, your heart has been heavy, or you just need a practical way to hand the chaos to God—this one’s for you.Grab a journal tonight. Brain dump it. Sort it. Step forward. Pray. And let’s get real together.

From there, everything starts changing—through friendship, discipleship, serving, and learning what it really means that “God doesn’t call the equipped… He equips the called.”You’ll also hear:How sports shaped his leadership (and why he wishes he played golf earlier)The pressure students feel to be liked vs. the call to be differentWhy boldness isn’t a personality trait—it’s a daily decisionThe shift from “numbers” to depth, and why discipleship multipliesA powerful encouragement to teenagers: don’t wish life away—live itThis episode is packed with wisdom for students, parents, leaders, and anyone trying to follow Jesus in real life—messy moments, busy schedules, and all.🎧 Listen now, and as always… don’t you worry.If this conversation encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe, and share it with a friend who needs it.

Tripp Hartline
In this episode, Briley and Britton sit down with their friend Tripp Hartline (yes, that Tripp from church, student group, and summer camp) and let him tell the real story of what God has been doing in his life. Tripp opens up about getting baptized as a kid, growing up with faith on the “side,” and eventually hitting a point where the questions got too big to ignore: Am I really saved? Do I actually know Jesus—or just know about Him?From wrestling with acceptance and wanting to fit in, to learning what it looks like to pursue Jesus with consistency, conviction, and community, Tripp shares the moment everything changed — and how it’s still changing. You’ll hear about the “knot in your stomach” feeling, the power of mentors who walk with you, the courage it takes to speak up at school, and the surprising ways God begins reshaping your desires (even down to what you listen to).This episode is honest, funny, heartfelt, and full of hope — especially if you’ve ever struggled with doubt, inconsistency, or wondering if your faith is truly your own.Don’t You Worry… God isn’t finished with your story either.

2026 Soundtracks
Briley and Britton are kicking off the new year with a bang (and yes… the Don’t You Worry hoodies are still going crazy, so check the socials 👀).In this episode, they share their Top 10 songs they’re carrying into 2026 — worship + Christian tracks that are encouraging, motivating, and perspective-shifting… the kind you blast in the car, play on repeat on the treadmill, and turn on first thing in the morning when you need your faith to wake up before your feelings do.Along the way, they unpack the lyrics that have been hitting them the hardest — like craving God even when life feels “fine,” remembering you’ve been washed and made new, turning “breakdowns” into breakthroughs, and choosing to seek Jesus first instead of running on spiritual leftovers. They also talk through real-life moments (big decisions, changing seasons, friendships, journaling God’s faithfulness) and keep circling back to the challenge of the year:Go all in for Jesus — even if you don’t know what’s next.They’re also putting the full list into a playlist for you to listen to, and they’re asking for help: drop your best worship + Christian hype song recommendations for 2026 (especially the kind that makes you want to run through a wall… spiritually).Hit play, grab your headphones, and let this episode set the tone for your year. Don’t you worry — your soundtrack is about to change everything.

Good News, Great Joy
This week on the Don’t You Worry Podcast, Briley & Britton take one short verse from the Christmas story and let it preach: Luke 2:10 — “Fear not… for behold, I bring you good news of great joy… for all the people.” And somehow that one verse manages to call out our whole holiday hustle.Using a simple Bible study tool they’ve been loving—scripture journaling from Fighting With Fear by Kate Downing—they slow the verse down word-by-word and uncover what we miss when we rush:“Fear not” isn’t a cute phrase—it’s a real invitation to trust God’s presence.“Behold” means fix your attention (yes, even in the middle of parties, finals, and a Christmas calendar that’s on fire).“Good news” is too good to keep quiet—real salvation overflows into real storytelling.“Great joy” isn’t just holiday happy… it’s deep, intense, can’t-hold-it-in joy—even when Christmas feels complicated.And “for all the people” means nobody is outside the_attach-this-to-your-life-right-now_ gospel.This episode is part laugh, part Christmas vibe, and part holy wake-up call: don’t let Jesus be one of your things this season—make Him the center. Fear Him above everything. Fix your eyes on Him. Share the good news. And receive the gift that was always meant for you.Merry Christmas—and seriously… don’t you worry.
