Are you tired of people knowing who you are, but no one really knowing you? That is the question our guest, Ben Higgins, posed in his new book, Alone in Plain Sight: Searching for Connection When You're Seen but Not Known. After being thrust into the international spotlight on ABC's The Bachelorette (Season 11) and The Bachelor (Season 20), Ben was forced to deal with his demons behind the scenes. Our other guest, Cam Ayala, was also a contestant on The Bachelorette (Season 15) and Bachelor in Paradise (Season 6), both of which resulted in him being branded as the bad guy. Since then, Cam has been forced to cope with waves of online bullying and harassment, but that struggle is nothing compared to a life-or-death battle he has fought most of his life. Through all of their pain and soul-searching, both Ben and Cam have come to understand the importance of being truly known - by the people around them, and by God.

Whose Side Is God On? (Part One)

There are 153 million orphans in the world today. Most of us would agree that making more adoptions possible is the most obvious solution to the problem, but what if it's not that simple? What if, in some parts of the world today, adoptions are unintentionally hurting children? Jessica and Adam Davis set out to change a little girl's life, but a shocking revelation disrupted their journey and challenged everything they thought they knew about orphans.  The stories in this episode challenge our own preconceptions about one of humanity's most pressing concerns: protecting the world's most vulnerable children, and doing justice on their behalf.

Does Every Orphan Need Adopting?

Is the Bible the greatest story ever told, or is it responsible for more bloodshed and oppression than any other book in history?

What If He Didn't Do It?

Randy Travis overcame all odds to become a country music legend, but few people know the whole story. After surviving an abusive childhood and struggling to stay sober and out of trouble as a young man, Randy's determined work ethic and signature baritone voice propelled his meteoric rise to superstardom. In the years that followed, however, his life slowly fell apart, and in 2013, he suffered a stroke that took away his ability to speak, sing, and walk. On this episode, we ask Randy and Mary Travis how it's possible to keep trusting God when your life feels like a country music song. 

Why Trust God When Life Feels Like a Country Song? (feat. Randy Travis)

Encore: An Honest Conversation on Race at The Story Houston

In the wake of the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and others, the flames of rage engulfed our national conscience. Some of the anger was righteous indignation fueled by a genuine longing for justice; some of it was violent, opportunistic, and even deadly. Where do we go from here? Are we ready to deal with systemic racism? Should we "dismantle whiteness"? For those of us trying to follow Jesus, what is the Christian response to racism? We tackle all these questions and more with the help of Dr. Esau McCaulley, author of the new book "Reading While Black," as well as a Texas couple with a truly unique perspective on recent events in our country.

Is God Colorblind?

As tensions continue to rise over race in America, Eric Huffman revisits a conversation from season one with author, pastor, and humanitarian Rudy Rasmus about baptizing Beyonce, pledging allegiance to the flag, and being Black and Christian in Trump's America. With a potent blend of grace and brutal honesty, Rudy reminds Eric of his responsibility to speak out about racism and white supremacy - a reminder that we all need to hear.

What Lives Matter? (Revisited)

Has a global pandemic been a welcomed break from the busyness of everyday life? Over the years, we've warned people about the intoxicating nature of money, sex, pride, anxiety, and shame, but we've failed to alert people to the most popular gateway drug of our time: busyness. Pastor and author of "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry" John Mark Comer warns that constant distraction and hurry are the greatest threats to our spiritual and emotional health. According to John Mark, hurry is incompatible with love, and if God is love, hurry prevents God from truly transforming our souls. Eric and John Mark suggest that this COVID-19 moment could be our best chance to declare independence from the soul-sucking busyness we sold-out to years ago, and they offer simple, practical ways to reject chronic busyness and to embrace real life and real love.

Should We Stop in the Name of Love?

What do you do when you can't feel God in the struggle? What do you say when no words can heal what's broken? On Maybe God, we start by listening to each other's stories. For this first episode of Season 4, host Eric Huffman cold-calls listeners from all over the world to find out how they're coping with the fallout from COVID-19. He expects to hear voices trembling with uncertainty and fear; what he encounters, however, are people full of faith, hope, and love. Each person has a story to tell about how the pain from their past prepared them to find peace in the present. Through their stories of resilience, we can hear the voice of God.  

Oh My God, How Much More Can We Go Through?

Host Eric Huffman looks back at Season 3 and invites Maybe God listeners to the biggest Maybe God LIVE event yet on September 15, 2019 in Houston.  

It's a Wrap!

What do you believe? That we're here because random things happen in the universe, without reason or cause, and over a span of 14 billion years, life as we know it was bound to just happen . . . eventually? Or maybe there is a purpose. Maybe there is a hidden meaning behind existence. Maybe life isn’t a matter of cosmic chance. Maybe God made us. On this podcast, skeptic-at-heart Eric Huffman of The Story Houston talks to artists, politicians, business moguls, prisoners, theologians, atheists and ordinary people in extraordinary situations to address the questions we all have about life, meaning, and the purpose for our existence. He pushes as hard against religion as he does against secularism in search of the only thing that matters: truth.
