Staircase to Nowhere

Staircase to Nowhere

David Neel, Sam Carroll & Noah Nemni

Join three friends—David, Noah, and Sam—as they navigate what it means to follow Jesus and live on His mission in American culture today. Each brings a unique perspective: David lives on a college campus, Noah works in a church with youth and local outreach, Sam serves homeless youth and young adults. Together, they question the ministry methods they grew up with, wrestle with faith in today's world, and seek to honor God in their time.
