On this week’s show, frequent guest and Psychologist Dr Chuck Tackett joins Chad and Kurt to discuss the causes, preventions, and ramifications of marital affairs. Chuck also talks about the necessary (and sometimes challenging) steps of repentance, healing and forgiveness. WARNING: this program may not be appropriate for little ears!

Thanksgiving is associated with a specific day in a specific month. Can’t you have Thanksgiving all year long? On this week’s show, Chad and Kurt welcome Pastors Bob Russell and Matthew Sleeth into the studio to talk about living a life of thankfulness. There is a connection between cynicism and ungratefulness. Complaining can kill any chance of having a thankful attitude. Men, you can play a role in developing a spirit of thankfulness in your home. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

“How may I serve you?….my pleasure!” These are 2 phrases that millions of people hear everyday. When they go to Chick-fil-A, they don’t just get a chicken sandwich and waffle fries, they get an experience. On this weekend’s show, owner-operator Matt Briggs talks about his 14 year journey with Chick-fil-A as an employee and owner operator. Joining him is Operating Partner Lucas Vaughan and new employee Jallen Russell (yes, that’s Chad’s son) to talk about what it’s like to work for Chick-fil-a. The experience that someone has when placing their order begins with the founding in 1967 and the Core 4 that have been around since its inception by Truett Cathy. It’s about much more than a chicken sandwich.

“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.”-GK Chesterton

Most 16 year olds these days are thinking about getting a drivers license. On this weeks show, we met a man who signed up to go to off to fight in WWII when he was 16. On a special Veterans Day show, Kurt and Chad talk to 3 veterans - Ed Conn, Harvey Cantrell, and Colonel Don Waddell from the WWII, Korean, and Vietnam War eras. Why was it like to be so young and be willing to leave behind all you know? What did they learn about going to war? Truly the Greatest Generation.

1000 adult movies. If someone had watched that many adult films, you would probably be concerned for them and put them in the category of an addict. But what would you call the one who has acted in that many movies? On this weeks show, former adult film actor Joshua Broome tells of his journey from being raised by a single Mom in South Carolina to award winning adult film star to broken and suicidal to redeemed follower of Jesus to husband/father and pastor. His story goes from the darkness of the sex film industry to the redeeming power of God. Some of the highlights of the show:

⁃ How one decision changed the entire trajectory of his life both good and bad

⁃ The realities in the darkness of the industry which the person viewing does not see (Joshua knows 30 people personally from the industry who have committed suicide)

⁃ How identity is key to defeating porn use

⁃ It’s never too late and too far gone for Jesus to redeem a life.

The show was so good we put a 5th bonus segment in that can only be heard on the podcast!!

On this week’s show guests Ken Idleman and Eric Schansberg talk about (8) important voting issues and how the Bible speaks specifically to each one.

“I don’t  want to see you again until you’re sober.” What if these were the last words you said to your child? The next time you saw him, the first responder was zipping him up in a body bag behind the dumpster of an apartment complex after a drug overdose. What do you think you would do? Which direction would your life go? On this weeks show, Kurt and Chad continue their conversation with Trey Anson. The first part of their conversation (click here to listen to part 1  https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/7AuYJL7GiMc8giSR7 )  took the listeners from Indian reservations, to the Berlin wall, and to the life of an alcoholic, ending with 2 sons dying of drug overdose within 6 months of one another. This week, the guys continue to talk about going from the worst moment in Trey’s life that leads to the greatest moment of his life. From war to peace. From dark to light. From hopeless to hope. It’s a story that includes hunting for drug dealers, visiting Indian spirit guides, and seeing an old friend after nearly 20 years that lead back to one place and person: an apartment parking lot and Jesus. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

Berlin Wall, and competitive Muay Thai boxing. This sounds life quite a life. As hard as those things sound, nothing could compare to the difficulty of watching your son be zipped up in a body bag after dying from a drug overdose. On this weeks show (1st of 2 week episodes), Kurt and Chad talk to Trey Anson, a man who’s life story needs to be told. It’s a story that involves struggle and pain, along with hope and peace. Little did Trey know that the worst moment of his life would be used by God to lead to the greatest peace he’s ever know. And the best is yet to come. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

“…he refreshes my soul.” Psalms 23:3

If a soul needs to be refreshed, what causes it to be in that state? How do you know your soul is in need of refreshing? On this week’s show, Kurt and Chad talk to married couple Brian and Tracy Cohoon on how they approach soul care individually, and as a couple, as well as implementing it as a lifestyle, not just something to do on Sundays.
