Millions know his song. Few know his story. In fact, Everybody knows “This Is How We Do It.”What most people don’t know is what happened after the music stopped.In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Tony Evans sits down with Grammy-nominated artist, pastor and speaker Montell Jordan for a conversation about fame, faith, identity and what it looks like when God asks you to surrender the very thing that made you successful.Montell shares how success slowly became part of his identity, how it affected his marriage and family, and why walking away from the spotlight became an act of obedience instead of defeat.He also opens up about his recent battle with prostate cancer, the importance of early detection and how facing a life-threatening diagnosis changed the way he thinks about purpose, trust and what it means to finish well.Along the way, Dr. Evans and Montell explore why God sometimes removes what we depend on before revealing who we really are. They talk about reaching people outside the walls of the church, carrying the gospel into unexpected places and why our greatest platform is often our greatest pain.If you’ve ever wondered what happens after the applause fades, this conversation is for you.Because God is often doing His deepest work after the world stops watching.Learn more about Montell Jordan:Follow Montell on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/montelljordan/Website: https://montellandkristin.com/———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

Faith Womack is a Bible teacher, author and content creator whose passion is helping people fall in love with God's Word.In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Tony Evans sits down with Faith for a conversation about Scripture, discipleship and why so many Christians settle for reading the Bible out of obligation instead of delight.Faith shares the personal story behind her passion for God's Word. Growing up in a home where Scripture was often misunderstood and misused, she wrestled with confusion, fear and questions about whether truth could really be known. But through faithful teachers, years of study and a growing love for God's Word, she discovered that the Bible is not meant to intimidate us. It is meant to transform us.Together, she and Dr. Evans explore why context matters, how to move beyond surface-level Bible reading and what it looks like to feast on Scripture instead of simply checking it off a list. They also talk about balancing Bible study with motherhood, overcoming the feeling of being unqualified and why every believer—not just pastors and scholars—is invited to know God's Word deeply.What makes this conversation so encouraging is its reminder that Scripture is not reserved for experts. It is for ordinary people walking through ordinary life with an extraordinary God. Whether you have read the Bible for decades or struggle to know where to begin, this episode will leave you with fresh confidence to open God's Word and expect Him to meet you there.Learn more about Faith Womack:No More Boring Bible Study: https://a.co/d/0a55TmqBWebsite: https://faithwomack.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/faithjwomackYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@faithjwomack———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

Second chapters aren't about replacing what came before. They're about discovering what God is still doing.In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Tony Evans sits down with his wife, Mrs. Carla Evans, for a warm and deeply personal conversation about love after loss, God's providence and the unexpected ways He writes new chapters.Together, they share the remarkable story of how two lives marked by profound loss were brought together through a series of quiet, unmistakable moments that only God could orchestrate. They reflect on the journey from friendship to marriage, the faithfulness of God through seasons of grief and the hope that can grow when we trust Him with what comes next.But this conversation is about more than how they met.Mrs. Evans shares what shaped her long before this chapter of her life—from caring for her parents and serving alongside her late husband in ministry to living with a kindness that naturally points people to Christ. Along the way, she and Dr. Evans talk about family, second chances, honoring the past without living in it and why God's providence is often easier to recognize looking backward than looking ahead.This episode feels less like an interview and more like being welcomed into an honest conversation about faith, love and the quiet ways God works behind the scenes. If you've ever wondered whether God can bring beauty after heartbreak, purpose after loss or joy in a season you never expected, this conversation is a gentle reminder that He is still writing your story.Follow Mrs. Carla Evans on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/mrscarlaevans/———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

He is a 6’10” forward, a first-round pick, an NBA champion and one of the league’s clearest examples of what it looks like to fight back when your body, your future and your expectations all get tested at once. After multiple back surgeries and years of questions about whether he could ever fully become the player people imagined, Porter kept going, kept growing and helped the Denver Nuggets win their first NBA championship in 2023. He later joined the Brooklyn Nets, where he averaged 24.2 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 3.0 assists this season. In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Tony Evans sits down with Michael for a conversation that goes way beyond highlights, numbers and fame. They talk about injuries, disappointment, unmet expectations and what happens when the dream you built your life around gets interrupted. Michael opens up about the mental side of pressure, the loneliness that can come with performance, and the process of learning that basketball can be part of your identity without becoming the whole of it.Together, they also talk about faith, family, purpose and the hard truth that even championships, platform and success cannot carry the weight of your soul. Michael shares honestly about questioning what he believed, looking into other belief systems and ultimately coming to the conviction that Jesus is the only way. He also reflects on his family, the responsibility he feels to those he loves and his desire to use his life for something bigger than a stat line.This is the kind of conversation basketball fans will feel because it gets underneath the game. It is about setbacks, comeback seasons, inner pressure and the battle to become whole while the world only measures what you do on the court.Because sometimes the biggest win is not the title.It is becoming the kind of man who can carry one.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mpj/———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

This episode of The Unbound Podcast is calm, honest and refreshingly practical. It is an invitation to stop running long enough to listen—to God, to your soul and to the still small voice we often miss in the noise.Dr. Konstantinos Zarras is a Greek theologian, scholar, faculty member and researcher in the Department of Theology at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) in Greece whose work explores the intersection of Scripture, faith and the human soul.Listen as Dr. Tony Evans sits down with Dr. Zarras for a thoughtful and deeply reflective conversation about anxiety, prayer, silence and the search for peace in an increasingly noisy world. Drawing from both Scripture and the Christian tradition, Dr. Zarras offers a perspective that feels both ancient and urgently relevant.Together, they explore what it means to move beyond surface-level religion and allow God to work at the level of the heart. Dr. Zarras explains why Jesus consistently addressed the inner life first—teaching that peace, conflict, forgiveness and even violence all begin within us before they ever appear around us.The conversation also dives into prayer in a way many listeners may not expect. Rather than beginning with words, Dr. Zarras describes prayer as beginning with silence: emptying our distracted minds so there is room to receive the presence of God. Dr. Evans and Dr. Zarras discuss how modern life, constant technology and endless noise have left many spiritually exhausted—and why slowing down may be one of the most important spiritual practices of our time.They also talk about family, emotional health, faith during hardship and the connection between inner peace and healthy relationships. Along the way, Dr. Zarras shares insights about the Lord’s Prayer, the “prayer of the heart” and why making space for God daily is not lost time, but an investment that changes the way we live.If your life feels crowded, anxious or spiritually tired, this conversation will help you breathe again.———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

Dr. Craig Allert is a Professor of Theology at Trinity Western University (twu.ca) who specializes in Early Christian Theology and the Formation of the New Testament.In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Tony Evans sits down with Dr. Allert for a thoughtful and deeply personal conversation about Scripture, church history, legacy and grief. Together, they explore why understanding the historical context of the Bible matters, how the early church helps shape our understanding of faith today and why Christianity was never meant to be disconnected from story, community and relationship.But this conversation moves beyond theology alone.As the discussion unfolds, Dr. Evans and Dr. Allert reflect on the influence of fathers, the power of spiritual legacy and the deep personal losses both men have experienced. Dr. Allert shares openly about the recent passing of his father, while Dr. Evans reflects on the legacy his own father left behind and the role Scripture played in shaping his life and ministry.Together, they wrestle honestly with grief, mourning and the hope believers hold onto in seasons of loss. They talk about why grief has no timeline, why people often need presence more than answers and how the body of Christ is meant to walk with one another through pain instead of avoiding it.This episode is both intellectually rich and deeply human. It is a reminder that faith is not built in isolation. It is passed down through generations, strengthened in community and sustained by the hope found in Christ.———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.

Drawing from her book “Way of the Wildflower,” Ruth reflects on how God uses even the smallest details in nature to remind us of His care, His timing and His presence.Together, they explore Jesus’ words in Luke 12 and what it means to “consider how the wildflowers grow.” Ruth shares how seasons of motherhood, ministry, disappointment and exhaustion taught her to slow down, pay attention and recognize that growth is not always visible. Sometimes God is still working even when nothing appears to be blooming.Dr. Evans and Ruth also talk honestly about the pressures of modern life: constant noise, endless striving, technology overload and the temptation to believe everything depends on us. But this conversation offers another way forward. One rooted not in hustle, but in trust. Not in performance, but in presence.This episode is both practical and deeply encouraging. It is a reminder that God is constantly revealing Himself through His Word, through creation and through the ordinary rhythms of everyday life. And sometimes the most spiritual thing we can do is slow down long enough to notice.If your soul feels tired, anxious or stretched thin, this conversation will help you breathe again.Learn more about Ruth Chou Simons and her ministry:Website: https://ruthchousimons.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ruthchousimons/Explore Way of the Wildflower:https://wayofthewildflowerbook.com/———————————————————————The Unbound Podcast is a weekly space for conversations that don’t rush to conclusions.
