The Redeemed Man

The theme for the month of October at The Redeemed is leadership, and in this podcast Paul Amos and Nate Dewberry introduce the topic by talking about what they’ve learned—not just as leaders of companies or organizations, but as leaders of families. Among those lessons: Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, but don’t let those mistakes define your identity, either; don’t just assume that the “view from the top” is the right one; and always value people for who they are, not just what they can do for you. The last one is particularly important to being a good leader as a father, for as Paul says, if you can’t demonstrate love to other people, they’ll figure it out pretty quickly.

From the first time Gage Dollar picked up a bat as a tee-ball player in his youth, he was hooked. He went on to become a star pitcher for the Central High School baseball team in Phenix City, Alabama, and then for the Alabama State Hornets—years of experience that taught him about teamwork, appreciating one’s blessings, and the value of community in becoming a confident and authentic leader. Gage shares some of those lessons, along with what he’s learned as a husband and a new dad, with Nate Dewberry in this week’s podcast. Being part of an open and honest community—and being willing to accept and deal with failure—are two things Gage says will serve men well whether they’re in sports, business, ministry, or anything else.

“We have plans, but God directs our path,” says Omar Mance. His own life is proof of that: He went to LSU with hopes of making it to the NBA, but after sensing he needed something different in his life, he transferred to a smaller school, which set him on the road to becoming a coach and mentor. After coaching stints at a wide variety of universities, Mance founded The Circle Legacy, a nonprofit dedicated to helping men become mentors who can make a meaningful impact and leave spiritual legacies of their own. This week he talks with Nate Dewberry about sports, coaching, and being open to seeing how God can turn times of struggle or disappointment into something positive.

Blake Russell says he was “19 years old but with a Hollywood-sized ego” when he went from merely doing drugs to selling them. That arrogance would cost him a promising baseball career, a girlfriend—and, eventually, his freedom, as he spent years in prison for trafficking methamphetamine. In prison, though, he had a “sentimental moment” that guided him to God and forever changed his life. Blake, now out of prison and serving as ministry director of Take the City in Columbus, Georgia, talks with Paul Amos about that moment of salvation, the bad decisions that led up to it, and how his life has taken on newfound conviction, humility, and meaning since then.

Since 1954, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) has been reaching out to schools to help young athletes build community, grow in their faith, and find an identity in Christ that transcends their accomplishments on the field of play. This week Paul Amos talks to two volunteers with FCA’s West Georgia chapter, area director Jonathan Karastury and Calvary Christian baseball coach Scott Donohoe, about FCA’s mission and how it tries to reach student-athletes and coaches alike. They also talk about their own experiences with sports and the defining moments that shaped their faith journeys.

Ian Morgan Cron is an Episcopal priest, therapist, and author who has written extensively about personality types and how they interact, as well as the “broken stories” we tell ourselves that perpetuate self-destructive behavior. In this week’s podcast, close friends Ian and Paul Amos discuss topics ranging from the enneagram personality test to breaking free of false narratives, sharing our truths with others, and learning to enjoy our own friendship. Loving yourself—your true self—doesn’t have to be egotistical, Ian says. Why wouldn’t God want us to like ourselves as much as He does?

Though he’s still young, Army recon platoon leader Josh Babb has faced plenty of difficulties and dilemmas, from identity struggles to an unhealthy dependence on pornography to the challenge of finding community when you’re in the military and frequently on the move. But Josh says he managed to find the answers to all of those challenges and more in scripture, and his relationship with the Lord has never been stronger. Josh talks with Nate Dewberry about how he found his identity in Christ and learned to resist the lures of the flesh, as well as his advice for fellow service members who face isolation and temptation as they live the nomadic life of a modern soldier.

Not only was quitting drinking only the beginning of Andy Brannum’s spiritual journey, it may have been the easiest part. When Andy (reluctantly) answered the call to ministry, he encountered a whole new set of challenges, from overwork to living with a wife and three kids in a 900-square-foot house. In this week’s podcast, Andy talks with Nate Dewberry about these struggles, times when he challenged God outright, and what it’s all led to—the formation of Thrive, a ministry that works with churches to help them create tailored, relevant men’s ministries of their own.

Steven Pemberton is more than happy to tell you about the mistakes he’s made and the trials and tribulations he’s gone through. What he won’t try to do is blame them on anyone else. If anything, he says, owning up to the mistakes he’s made in his life allows him to see how much God has helped him grow since then. This week Steven has an open, honest, and upbeat conversation with Nate Dewberry about how his marriage nearly collapsed, how he and his wife salvaged it, and how being honest about his fears and failings—with both God and other men—helped him find the strength and hope that keeps him going today.

The theme for August at The Redeemed is stories of hope and restoration. Paul Amos and Nate Dewberry give a brief introduction to that theme in this short edition of The Redeemed Man podcast, emphasizing the importance of sharing our stories with one another—both the stories of our sins and failings and the stories of our triumphs. Ultimately, we have to remember that any truly inspiring redemption story has to include some struggle.

Mike Malone’s life has certainly seen its share of challenges and low points, but none were more devastating than the cancer diagnosis he received in 2016. His treatment and recovery were long and at times painful, but over the course of that struggle, he learned things that transformed his life—how his prior experiences had prepared him for the battle; how he could let go of anger and bitterness he’d been carrying around for years; and how God was using cancer to help him become a better man. Mike talks with Nate Dewberry about all these revelations in this week’s podcast, as well as the importance of a loving wife and what we should really be looking for when we open the Bible.
