Maybe you’ve grown up as a Christian going to church or maybe you’re not interested in religion at all. But when you’re scrolling, hanging out with friends, trying to sleep, or overwhelmed with your day-to-day, do big existential questions ever pop in- you know- things like, “Why am I here? How did all this get here? What happens after I die?” “Is there a God and is there really meaning to all this?” ”What’s so special about Jesus Christ?” We’ve all experienced deep longing for something this world can’t seem to satisfy. Even someone as wildly successful as Taylor Swift knows that to be true. “I had won album of the year at the Grammys for a second time...” She said, “and I remember thinking afterwards, ’Oh my god, that was all you wanted!... That was all you focused on. You get to the mountaintop and look around and you’re like... what now?” If you’re tired and feeling overwhelmed with all the different voices yelling for your affections- telling you what to go after- whether it be success, beauty, the perfect partner, social media followers, money, or power… only to leave you let down and unsatisfied, searching for more… Maybe like my friends and me, you’re after finding something REAL. Every week, join me (Janell Wood), special co-hosts and guests as we ask questions, look for answers, and search for the source of something REAL: Restoration, Eternity, Authenticity, and Love. I believe those things can ultimately be found in relationship with Jesus Christ, but don’t take my word for it. Listen to our conversations for yourself and go on a journey with us: Is Jesus the REAL thing?

Happy November from the Finding Something REAL Team!
This month, we are excited to introduce to you Zoé, a wonderful young woman from France!
Zoé shares her experience as an exchange student in the US and some of the biggest cultural differences that she has noticed. She shares a bit about her upbringing and the cultural opinions about religion that she’s experienced.
Zoé shares her first experience going to a Christian church, why she continues to go back, and what she finds most beautiful about the idea of God. She also shares some of her questions including:
- How can we really be sure there's a God or someone to help us?
- How can I know what to believe? Do we just believe in something because someone told us to? How can we know truth?
- How different is life when you are a Christian?
We hope you enjoy the episode! Have a good Wednesday! ___________
