What happens when an overnight fishing trip in Alaska turns into a six-day survival story?

In this episode of Unleashed, Brent Henderson shares the untold side of being stranded off the remote Aialik Peninsula in Kenai Fjords National Park after a mechanical failure left four men waiting days for rescue. Along the way, they crossed open water in a 15-foot Zodiac, nearly paid the price for getting too close to Holgate Glacier when a chunk of ice the size of Walmart calved into the ocean, and spent sleepless nights wondering if the anchor holding their boat would survive the storm.

But this episode isn't just about surviving Alaska. It's about what happens inside a man when life goes sideways.

Brent opens up about fear, future thinking, brotherhood, and the power of having men around the table who help build courage when the storm refuses to let up. Along the way, he explores why men are drawn to awe and adventure, why challenge awakens the soul, and how trials can reveal strength, character, and faith.

Drawing from James chapter 1 and Ecclesiastes chapter 4, Brent reminds us that we were never meant to fight alone and that sometimes the greatest lessons are learned while we're waiting for rescue.

Whether you're facing uncertainty in your marriage, family, finances, health, or faith, this episode will encourage you to stop wasting the wilderness and trust that God is using even the storms to prepare you for what's ahead.

Plus, Brent shares information about his new book, The Big 5 Mankillers: Declawing the Lies of the Enemy, an eight-week study designed to help men break free from the lies that keep them stuck and rediscover God's purpose for their lives.

We are the resistance.
