Welcome to The Wordsmith Podcast with Clay Smith! In this episode, Pastor Clay is joined by Student Pastor Logan Grantham for an honest and heartfelt conversation about revival, repentance, and spiritual renewal.
Together they dive into 2 Kings 22–23 and the story of King Josiah—an 18-year-old whose encounter with God’s Word sparked repentance and change across a nation. Clay and Logan talk about what true revival looks like, how repentance leads to renewal, and whether the growing spiritual hunger among today’s students might be the beginning of something bigger.
They also share stories from ONE WKND, Johnson Ferry’s annual student retreat, where nearly a thousand students gathered to worship, hear God’s Word, and respond to the gospel. It’s a conversation about conviction, obedience, and the hope of seeing God move in our generation.
Dr. Clay Smith is the senior pastor of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church, located just north of Atlanta, GA. JF, as it is affectionately called, is a healthy, vibrant church committed to helping people find truth, belonging, and purpose in Jesus.
