Episode 2: God Is Already Here
Have you ever felt like faith is about bringing God to people? What if God is already everywhere—in everything, in everyone?
In this episode of What I DO Believe, Zach unpacks a major shift in his spiritual journey: moving from a mindset of bringing God to recognizing where God already is. Instead of seeing faith as a mission to “deliver” truth, Zach now approaches it as an ongoing discovery of the divine in every person and place—no exceptions.
Through personal stories, biblical reflection, and a surprising encounter with Buddhist wisdom, Zach explores how his understanding of faith was reshaped. Looking at Matthew 25, Jesus’ interactions with outsiders, and his own journey, this episode invites you to rethink what it means to notice God’s presence—especially in the places we least expect.
