No Days Off | Meet Joe & Tara Meyers
In this episode, we sit down with Joe and Tara Meyers, founders of World Share, a ministry born from one bold decision: to include God in every part of life—even vacation. After years of corporate travel and seeing communities in deep need, Joe and Tara felt called to something more. What began as a simple act of obedience on a cruise led to bags of supplies, divine appointments, and a full-blown family ministry across the globe.

The Almost
In Episode 2 of The Collective Thread, three pastors, Cody, Shane, and Cole, share raw, unscripted stories of pain, burnout, disillusionment, and near-collapse. But instead of quitting, they encountered Jesus in unexpected ways...in quicksand moments, closed churches, surgeries, and broken dreams.

Genesis
In this premiere episode, we lay the foundation for The Collective, which is a growing movement of ordinary people saying "yes" to an extraordinary call. From living in RVs to hosting neighbors in homes and gathering in gyms, restaurants, bars, or around campfires, these chapters of Neighbors and Nomads are uniting under The Collective, reimagining what the Church can be.
