About Buddy Puckett:
Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married.  This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage.  We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well.  Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled,
failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ! 

“Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6

This episode with Rob is part 2. If you missed part 1, go back and listen to it as well. 

Rob knows the Gospel and has for most of his life, and admits that he struggles to continuously follow Jesus daily by surrendering to Him… we all do at times in our lives! 

Learning to live the authentic Christ centered life, the way God designed us, provides joy and peace… if we live out the calling God has on our life!

When we don’t live out the life God has called us too, like Jonah, we oftentimes do not experience the joy or peace God has for us! 

Learn the ways of God through Christ and experience the Joy of the Lord! 

“Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,” James 1:2

In this episode, Ryan shares his life… Growing up in Oregon, working with his dad in the family business, learning how to “work hard and play hard”, raising kids and the calling to minister to people on mission trips…. being willing to traveling far and wide to serve people they are going through hard times! 

Life on this side of heaven is not perfect, but God uses each one of us that say yes to HIS calling and Ryan is that guy that continues to faithfully do what God has called him to do!

This episode with Rick and Sam was great! The calling of God to be a preacher is just that!  To obey God is to pray, trust and do what He has called each one of us to do! 

The conviction that Rick has toward his faith in Jesus, his love for his family and the calling God has on his life is incredible to see! 

The trust that Sam has put in God to move himself, his wife and 3 kiddos to Oregon and be a part of the Hispanic Church planting alongside Rick shows incredible faith!

God is at work in each of us and this episode will encourage everyone to trust in the Lord…

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He shall direct your paths.” 
Proverbs 3:5-6

Yes, this is my podcast, but my friend, Nick McWilliams, asked if he could interview me on the podcast! 

Of course, I am an open book and want people to see and know the real me… the good and the bad! 

To be authentic and transparent about my faith in Christ is what really matters!

I hope you enjoy this episode! 🙏

Andy is a great man of God who deeply loves Jesus, his wife and kids!  Pay attention to a man who has his priorities in place! 🙏

“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.” 2 Cor. 5:17

He’s also a first born who is entrepreneurial with goals of building wealth through real estate. 🙌

God created all of us in HIS image! 🙏 God has so much creativity and the fact that we were made in HIS image is nothing short of amazing!

Andy’s passion outside of his home is his ministry through Young Life! Reaching kids that don’t have a home where Jesus is followed or even talked about! To spend the time getting to know these kids and to “know their name”!

To learn more about being a volunteer in Young Life, get in touch with Andy! He will share his passion and desire with you and just maybe… it will light your fire to reach kids with the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Mark shares his life from really bad decisions that left him feeling empty! The world promises much, but always delivers less than what God promises! 

We are all ONE decision away from doing something that isn’t God’s best! But, thankful for the grace of God that is always available to each one of us! 

Listen to Mark’s transparent and authentic story that causes him to make some drastic changes in his life! 

We all have something that needs to be shared and redeemed… To be set free by addiction we must bring it into the Light of Jesus Christ! HE is the only ONE who can set you free! HE is where you will find forgiveness and redemption! 

“Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” 1 Cor. 16:13-14

Great podcast with Mike! Anyone who has lived long enough knows that life will have its challenges, which he shares in this episode! 

Mike had a great upbringing with wonderful parents and siblings, but that does not translate into smooth sailing with no problems in life! 

He is transparent and authentic and shares the ups and downs he has faced and remains positive about where God has him at… 🙏🙏🙏

“Feed My People” is something Mike heard early on from the Lord and he has since opened up several restaurants and catering food trucks to obviously make a profit, but also be willing to feed those who need a good meal… physically and spiritually! 

Go support Mike and his family at one of their local restaurants here in the mid-Willamette Valley!
