What does it mean to build your life on Jesus Christ?

In the very first episode of Like a Rock, host Connor sits down with bestselling author and former Revival host David Butler for an honest conversation about faith, purpose, identity, failure, and the foundation that carries us through life's hardest moments.

Connor shares the unexpected journey that led him to hosting this new show, why Helaman 5:12 has become his family's life scripture, and how one verse from Luke 22 quite literally saved his life.

Whether you're searching for direction, struggling to find purpose, or simply looking for hope, this conversation is for you.
