Welcome back, Everyday Faith community! We’re excited to have Jeff Zaugg with us on the podcast this week—he’s the founder of DadAwesome and Fathers for the Fatherless, two incredible organizations equipping dads to lead with purpose. Jeff, his wife, and their four daughters now call Florida home, but their journey of faith has taken them across the country, shaping the way they live out their mission as a family.

In Part One of our conversation, Jeff shares how his understanding of God’s love deepened over time, transforming his faith from something he grew up with to something he fully embraced. From leading a junior high teammate to Christ on a mission trip to launching a men’s faith and fitness group many years later, Jeff’s life has been marked by a passion for building relationships and walking alongside others in faith. 

He also unpacks how a pivotal career shift set him on a path toward his next calling—one that would ultimately lead him to impact generations of fathers across the country. If you’ve ever wondered if God might be opening doors for you to pursue something new, Jeff’s story is sure to encourage you to follow the Lord’s lead.

Next week in Part Two, Jeff takes us into the incredible journey of traveling the country with his family, creating community wherever they went. From deep conversations with neighbors after years of intentional investment to small groups and interactions with strangers on the beach, you’ll walk away inspired to embrace the faith-filled opportunities in your own life.
