The Reach Podcast
Do you ever want to share Jesus with others, but you don't know what to say? You're not alone. Sharing your faith takes open ears, intentionality, and a whole lot of prayer. Most of us are still figuring it out.
That's exactly what The Reach Podcast is here for.
Every other week, hosts Blaine Larsen, Mary Jo Sharp, and Dr. John Hopper answer your questions about sharing Jesus. The goal is simple: give you the confidence to navigate those conversations yourself.
Produced by Reach, the evangelism training ministry of Search Ministries, equipping people to share Jesus naturally since 1977. Learn more at reachothers.org.

In this episode of the Reach Podcast, Blaine sits down again with Tanner Morgan—former University of Minnesota quarterback and now on staff with Search Ministries—to talk about what it really means to “flip the switch” when it comes to faith.
Tanner shares the story of his longtime friend “Travis,” a fellow quarterback who has been asking big questions about God, the Bible, and salvation. From wrestling with doubts like “Why would God send good people to hell?” to wondering if becoming a Christian is just about “turning it on” when you’re ready, Travis’s journey highlights the struggles many face in moving from curiosity to commitment.
Together, Blaine and Tanner explore how authentic relationships, honest conversations, and biblical truth can help break down intellectual barriers. They discuss the difference between performing for God and surrendering to Him, what it means to be a child of God, and how grace cannot be earned but must be received.
