For a long time, I was afraid of guys like Jason Bunse.
The dealer type. The ones you cross the street to avoid.
If I’d met the old Jason back then, I probably would’ve been afraid too.
But that’s not who he is anymore.
In this episode, Jason shares his raw, unfiltered story—from running drugs like a business, to hearing a voice say, “It’s time to go back to church,” to trying to “date the church” just long enough to get God off his back. What followed wasn’t religion—it was pursuit.
Jason talks about:
Why Jesus being fully God and fully man actually matters
Trying to check the “church box” instead of surrendering
God using law enforcement (Salem Police Department, FBI, and a jail cell) to answer desperate prayers
Picking up a Bible in a holding cell—and never being the same
The mercy of Jesus: “Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more.”
Finding hope when you feel too far gone
Discovering the heart of the Father
Walking in boldness after radical transformation
This is a story for anyone who thinks they’ve gone too far…
and a reminder that Jesus doesn’t lower the bar of truth—He meets us with mercy and changes everything.
