A FEW FAVORITES FROM THE MONTH OF JUNE 2025

(Post by: Lilly Hobbs)

Happy July! June was a powerful month here at The Few—full of bold conversations, honest reflections, and a deeper call to revival. As we head into summer, we’re taking a moment to look back at what God did through the content we shared this past month.

Toward the end of the month, we spent time reflecting on camp meeting season, where we explored the holiness of God and the hunger for revival, plus a little nostalgia with hamburgers in hand. One of our most-read blog posts in June was, “Ten Truths About Revival We Can’t Ignore,“ a passionate reminder that revival isn’t just a buzzword, it’s a deep, personal call to return to holiness and surrender.

We’re thankful for every read, listen, share, and message you’ve sent our way. It’s a joy to do this Kingdom work alongside you. So, grab an iced coffee (or an iced chai), settle in, and take a look back at a few of our favorite moments!

Our hope is that this will give you the opportunity to catch up on any podcast episodes, blog posts, and/or social media posts you might have missed, as well as be a post you can share with those you know who may be interested in reading and listening to the serious Christian content we strive to create!

Without further ado, here are a few favorites from the month of June…

JUNE BLOG POSTS (OLDEST TO NEWEST)

A FEW FAVORITES FROM THE MONTH OF MAY: https://thefew.blog/2025/06/05/a-few-favorites-from-the-month-of-may-2/

Excerpt: Happy June! The month of May felt like a beautiful blend of deep conversations, creative rhythms, and little reminders of why we started The Few in the first place. From celebrating five years of podcasting and six years of blogging (what?!), to answering rapid-fire questions about faith, sin, and spiritual honesty, this month pushed us to think more intentionally, and to reflect on all that the Lord is doing within our lives.

TEN TRUTHS ABOUT REVIVAL WE CAN’T IGNORE: https://thefew.blog/2025/06/12/ten-truths-about-revival-we-cant-ignore/

Excerpt: We don’t need more entertainment or surface-level spirituality. We’re hungry for something real, for something that matters. What if we became the generation that chased after Jesus so fiercely that revival became our reality?

THE SAFEST PLACE FOR SUFFERING: https://thefew.blog/2025/06/19/the-safest-place-for-suffering-2/

Excerpt: There’s not much worse than hearing pretty Christian clichés and reading feel-good posts that everything is going to be alright and that you’re doing a great job when you’re currently in the fire being refined. I write this to you today because nothing has brought me more hope and inspired me to be all the more faithful than the fact that Jesus Himself is the safest place for my suffering. 

CAMP MEETING, HOLINESS, AND HAMBURGERS: https://thefew.blog/2025/06/27/camp-meeting-holiness-and-hamburgers/

Excerpt: While camp meeting is still a place where God moves in phenomenal ways; I wonder why we don’t see the commitment to, and the results from it, like the old saints have told me stories about. My contention would be that we don’t really want what God usually brings along with such commitment.

JUNE PODCAST EPISODES (OLDEST TO NEWEST)

Rapid-Fire Real Talk… First One Of Season Six: https://afewminuteswiththefew.podbean.com/e/rapid-fire-real-talk-first-one-of-season-six-s6ep5/

Episode Description: When was the last time we recorded a rapid-fire questions episode? In this week’s episode of A Few Minutes With The Few, we hit each other with a round of rapid-fire questions—no prep, no filter. From the tension between emotional honesty and reverence with God, to how Gen-Z engages with Scripture, to whether being constantly “informed” is actually making us wiser or just weary—we cover it all. We even wrestle with what to do when you’re tired of fighting sin and dive into the debate: does an artist’s intent matter more than how their work is received? Buckle up for an honest, fast-paced convo that will leave you thinking long after it ends. Let’s get into it!

Pride, Power, & Politics: What Changed This June? https://afewminuteswiththefew.podbean.com/e/pride-power-politics-what-changed-this-june-s6ep6/

Episode Description: Are you excited for another Pride Month episode? In this episode, we take a closer look at how Pride Month in 2025 feels different from last year—and why that matters. From shifting cultural attitudes to key political decisions under the Trump administration, we explore what’s changed, what’s improved, and what it says about the direction of the American people. Whether you’re encouraged, conflicted, or just curious, this conversation offers a thoughtful look at the intersection of identity, influence, and ideology in today’s climate. Let’s get into it!

Stop Romanizing “Finding Yourself”: https://afewminuteswiththefew.podbean.com/e/stop-romanticizing-finding-yourself-s6ep7/

Episode Description: In today’s culture, we’re constantly told to “find ourselves” aren’t we? We are told to chase our truth, follow our feelings, and look inward for purpose. But what if this popular message is leading us further from the life God actually calls us to? In this episode, we challenge the cultural obsession with self-discovery and unpack why true identity isn’t something we find within ourselves. We’ll talk about the dangers of idolizing self, the emptiness of the “do you” mindset, and how Scripture calls us to lose ourselves in order to truly live. Whether you’re feeling lost or just overwhelmed by pressure to figure out your life, this conversation is for you. Let’s get into it!

Suffering Isn’t The Enemy, Comfort Is: https://afewminuteswiththefew.podbean.com/e/suffering-isnt-the-enemy-comfort-is-s6ep8/

Episode Description: What if the goal isn’t to escape discomfort, but to embrace it when it draws us closer to Christ? Today, Lilly is flipping the script on something our generation tries hard to avoid: suffering. Inspired by our latest blog post, Lilly is talking about how comfort can quietly sabotage our faith and why Jesus is still the safest place to bring our pain. If you’ve ever wondered where the Lord is in your suffering, or if choosing obedience is even worth it when it costs everything, this episode is for you. Maybe the enemy isn’t your suffering… Maybe it’s your craving for comfort. Let’s get into it!
