Against The Grain is a faith-based podcast for a generation tired of shallow answers and lukewarm living. Hosted by four best friends, Gage Lee, Jack Plunkett, JD Gibson, and Aiden Alford, this podcast dives headfirst into real topics through the lens of Scripture, straight from God’s Word.

All four hosts are college students who once lived for the world, chasing sin, comfort, and approval. But everything changed when Jesus radically transformed their lives. Choosing obedience over convenience, truth over culture, and Christ over self, they decided to go against the grain.

Each episode features honest conversations, biblical teaching, and practical application rooted in Scripture and sound theology. The goal is simple but bold: to challenge a generation to step away from lukewarm faith, confront hard truths, and fully surrender to Jesus Christ. No sugarcoating. No cultural Christianity. Just the gospel.

Against The Grain is for anyone wrestling with faith, tired of surface-level religion, or hungry to grow deeper in their walk with Christ. Whether discussing theology, cultural issues, personal testimony, or spiritual discipline, this podcast exists to glorify God and point listeners back to the authority of His Word.

If you are ready to be challenged, encouraged, and called to something greater, this podcast is for you. The world may flow in one direction, but we are choosing a different path. We are choosing to live Against The Grain.

    In this episode of Against The Grain, we continue our series on God’s love by looking at the cross as the ultimate display of love. We talk about how Jesus willingly gave Himself for sinners, how His sacrifice reveals the heart of God, and why true love is not just words or feelings, but action, sacrifice, and truth. This episode points us to the clearest picture of love the world has ever seen: Christ crucified for us.

  • The World Got Love Wrong
    May 8 2026

    THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED ON 3/9/2026

    In this episode of Against The Grain, we begin a new series on God’s love by comparing the world’s definition of love to what the Bible actually teaches. We talk about how culture has reduced love to feelings, affirmation, and self-fulfillment, while biblical love is rooted in truth, sacrifice, and holiness. This conversation challenges modern ideas of love and points back to God's character as the true standard.
