Can you find real peace on your own, or do you need something bigger than yourself?Peter Gaustad joins Mitch Bauer and Andrew Heuss for one of our most open, honest conversations yet. Peter grew up in the church, drifted into doubt, and found his way to meditation, Wim Hof breathing, and teachers like Abraham-Hicks while searching for peace. We talk about it all with curiosity, not judgment: surrender, prayer, grace vs. works, objective truth, and whether spiritual practices can do what only Jesus can.There’s plenty of fun along the way too: quitting nicotine, the Pokémon card craze, Heydays in North Branch, raising little kids on no sleep, Red Dye 40, keeping a wedding simple, and the time we accidentally went viral on a foot forum.Wherever you are on your faith journey, there’s a seat for you in this conversation.0:00 – Catching Up & Quitting Nicotine5:00 – How We Went Viral (For the Wrong Reason)7:30 – Motocross & Heydays in North Branch10:30 – Pokémon Cards, Collectibles & Nostalgia16:30 – Parenting Young Kids25:00 – Keeping Wedding Planning Simple29:00 – Kid Personalities, Birth Order & Red Dye 4038:50 – Faith, Doubt, Meditation & Surrender58:00 – Worldviews, Christianity & Grace1:17:30 – Consciousness, Abraham-Hicks & Moral Truth1:36:00 – Prayer, Spiritual Practices & Do You Need Church?1:55:30 – eye2eye Optical & Wrapping UpCheck out Peter’s family business, I2I Optical in Fergus Falls, MN.“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28Jesus first.
