About this sermon
In this episode, Dr. Baruch "B" HaLevi sits down with Trent Poulsen, co-founder of Ember and Ice and host of the upcoming Out of Pocket podcast, for an honest and wide-ranging conversation about what it takes to build a meaningful life from the inside out. Trent opens up about growing up in a small mountain town outside Boulder, battling depression and suicidal thoughts in high school, and how loneliness quietly shaped his early years. He shares the role substances played in helping him find connection in college, and what it looked like to eventually walk away from them and build something real. Together they explore how Ember and Ice grew from a personal need for community into a nature-based sanctuary for connection and healing, and what happened when the business hit a wall and had to pivot. They also dig into faith in a secular world, the difference between trust and conviction, Trent's unexpected path to Christianity, fitness as a means versus an end, and what Viktor Frankl would say about a six-pack of abs. This is a conversation about the kind of man you become when you stop running from loneliness and start building toward something bigger than yourself.
