Jesus promised that those who believe in Him will have rivers of living water flowing from within.
In this Found In Focus devotional, Lorie Hartshorn unpacks John 7:38–39 (NLT) and the powerful promise of the Holy Spirit — God’s presence and power flowing through His people to bring life, hope, and renewal. Following her inspiring conversation with Ryan McVety, Lorie reminds us that true revival begins when we stop trying to control the flow and let the Spirit move freely in and through us. When the Spirit flows, hearts are healed, faith is renewed, and lives are changed.
Be encouraged today — you don’t have to manufacture revival. Just open your heart and let His Spirit flow.

When life pulls you into a pit, God doesn’t leave you there—He lifts you up and gives you a new song to sing.
In this Found In Focus devotional, Lorie Hartshorn unpacks Psalm 40:3, reminding us that God can turn even our deepest pain into a powerful testimony of His redemption and faithfulness. Just like David, and like Daniel Richter’s story, when we let God rewrite our song, the world sees His goodness and puts their trust in Him. What once felt like despair becomes a declaration: “He brought me out of the pit and set my feet on solid ground.”
Be encouraged—your story isn’t over. God is composing something beautiful with your life.

Daniel Richter, former frontman of the pop band Eleven Past One, once chased fame, success, and identity in the spotlight. But behind the stage lights, he wrestled with questions of worth, identity, and purpose that no applause could answer.
In this deeply personal and hope-filled conversation, Daniel opens up about:
- His struggles with identity and sexuality while living in the public eye
- The emptiness of chasing success and what led to his breaking point
- How God met him in surrender and brought healing, purpose, and peace
- His journey from performing for people to worshipping for God’s glory
Now a husband, father, and worship leader, Daniel shares how God transformed his story from performance to purpose—and how his new single “Dear God” reflects the cry of a redeemed heart.
Be reminded that true freedom isn’t found in fame—it’s found in Christ alone.

Who—or what—is leading your life today?
In this powerful Found in Focus devotional, Lorie Hartshorn unpacks Romans 8:9 through the raw and honest story of Jesús. He shares openly about:
- Growing up with childhood trauma
- Walking away from faith and living in destructive patterns
- Seeking belonging in radical ideologies
- Believing he was in control—yet really being controlled by sin
But the faithful prayers of his grandmother and the grace of God led him home. Today, Jesús testifies to the freedom that comes when we allow Christ and His Spirit to lead our lives. Romans 8:9 reminds us: sin is available, but it is no longer our master. Freedom is found in surrender to Jesus.
✨ Be encouraged to release control, walk in the Spirit, and experience the life only Christ can give.

Adam and Eve didn’t see it coming. In the garden, Satan whispered the original lie that shattered humanity’s identity: “You don’t measure up, but I can help you get what you lack.” That deception still echoes today, convincing us we are less than who God made us to be. But the truth is, Adam and Eve were already complete—created in God’s image with nothing missing.
In this episode, we explore how sin entered the world not through a flaw in humanity but through a choice—made with God-given free will. We unpack the consequences of that choice and the powerful hope of the “Great Exchange”: Jesus took our sin and gave us His righteousness.
You’ll also hear the powerful testimony of Adam Shepski, founder of Disciple A City, who once sat high and broken in an old school bus, consumed with thoughts of suicide. In that moment of despair, he heard God whisper, “Next week, you will find your fire.” And he did—through a friend who shared the gospel. Adam’s story illustrates what it means to have your identity restored and your life transformed by Christ’s righteousness.
Key Themes:
►The Original Lie & Fall: How Satan deceived humanity into believing they were lacking—and how sin entered through a choice, not a flaw.
►The Great Exchange: Jesus became sin so we could become righteous (2 Corinthians 5:21).
►New Identity in Christ: We are no longer defined by sin but made righteous and complete in Him.
►Adam Shepski’s Story: From despair and addiction to freedom and restored identity through Jesus.

What happens when the very thing you thought defined you is suddenly gone? In this episode, Lorie shares her personal story of losing her singing voice and the deep identity crisis that followed. Through heartbreak, questions, and a search for meaning, she invites us to reflect on our own identity: Who are we without our talents, titles, or accomplishments?
Discover the truth of who you really are—loved, chosen, and adopted by God. Everything that was lost in the garden is found in Jesus.
Key themes:
►Identity crisis through loss: What happens when your purpose or passion is stripped away?
►God’s love beyond performance: You are not what you do—your worth isn’t tied to your talents or success.
►Adoption into God’s family: We are chosen, wanted, and fully accepted as His children.
