Have you ever had that one influential person in your life that you will always remember? Whether it be from a Mom, Dad, Grandparent, Pastors? In this episode we talk about influential people in our lives that at the time we had no idea what they were building us to be! Better yet how God was using them to build His kingdom!

Will Watson joins us today as a young college student, recently married. Will shares his testimony as well what keeps him going day to day, living for Christ, and ultimately denying himself, picking up his cross and following Christ!

"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12

In this week's episode we discuss how conviction should lead to changes! Where does conviction come from? How do you know it is real? We will discuss memorable times how convictions changed our lives! It takes faith, sacrifice, and being obedient to His WORD!

Join in as we talk about Acts Chapter 2 as Peter was proclaiming, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

What if success isn’t a scoreboard but a surrendered heart? We sit down as pastors, dads, and friends to wrestle with a question that won’t let us go: how did Sundays become negotiable—and what would it take to rebuild them around worship, renewal, and resolve? From the joy of an unscripted testimony night to the simple power of putting Bibles in students’ hands, we explore how ordinary faithfulness reshapes homes, churches, and towns.

The conversation moves through Romans 12:2 and the transformation of the mind, to Zacchaeus’ holy curiosity that climbed a tree and met a Savior who called him by name. We talk about calling beyond the building, the beauty and limits of livestreams, and the irreplaceable strength of gathering face to face. We press on tender ground—youth sports, hunting seasons, and calendars that crowd out church—and ask parents to consider what their choices are teaching their kids about God, truth, and community. With Joshua 1:8 as our compass, we redefine success as meditating on and obeying God’s word, trusting him with outcomes we can’t control.

We don’t shy away from the weight pastors carry—the sting of empty altars, the ache of people leaving before worship—but we frame it with hope: faithfulness is our part; fruit is God’s. Along the way, we talk self-control as a spiritual wall (Proverbs 25:28), the contagious courage of David that wakes up an army, and a simple, actionable standard for Sundays that kids can see and follow. If you’ve ever felt torn between good things and the best thing, this conversation offers clarity, conviction, and a path forward.

If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a review to help more people find it. Then tell us: what’s one resolve you’re making this week?

In this episode, we welcome Park Tipton to share his testimony and dive into the meaning of radicalization. What does it look like when a life is consumed by hate, pride, and deception—and how is that different from being radically devoted to Christ? We explore the reality of spiritual warfare that shapes our daily lives. Join us as we discuss how to stay grounded in truth, put on the armor of God, and live radically for love and righteousness.

In this episode, we dive into James 1:2-6 with Bro. David’s reminder that trials are not just obstacles, but opportunities for growth. Trials test our faith, shape our character, and mature us into the likeness of Christ. Just like weightlifting builds strength, difficulties build spiritual muscle.
