Join me at Camp Wut-Da-Heck for a raw, hands-on breakdown of three primitive fire-starting tinder's you can find and process in the wild—arrowwood, mimosa, and tung nut. I walk through scraping wet bark, sun-drying techniques, and using tools like the ferro rod and Pull Start Fire to get real flames in real conditions. If you’ve ever asked, “Can green wood actually work?”—this episode gives you answers you can take into the woods today.

Spiritual Reflection:
But this episode doesn’t just deal with physical fire. It turns the corner into a deeper challenge: Is your heart prepared like good tinder—soft, stripped down, ready to respond? Using 2 Timothy 1:6 and Hebrews 12:29, we’ll explore what it means to fan the flame of faith and what happens when the spark of God’s presence hits something truly ready to burn.

Why This Matters:

If you’re looking to expand your fire-starting skills using local resources—this episode gives you real, tested results.

If you’ve felt dry, distracted, or unprepared spiritually—this message will call you back to readiness.

And if you’re just tired of overproduced survival fluff and want faith and fire, stripped back and spoken real—you’re in the right place.
