The Redeemed Man

Some “adrenaline junkies” chase their thrills by climbing mountains, racing cars, or skydiving. But the adrenaline rush that compulsive gamblers get from placing bets is even more addictive—and far more destructive. This week Nate Dewberry talks with a recovered gambling addict about how he got hooked, how he nearly lost everything, and how he overcame his addiction. The big key, he says, has been the loyal support of family and friends, who continue to help him resist temptation and fill the surprisingly large time void that gambling left behind.

Getting a glimpse of one of dad’s Playboy magazines is so common it’s treated as a rite of passage for many men, but beneath that patina of innocence lies the potential for real and lasting damage. Rev. Michael Cusick was first exposed to porn at age 4 and by his teen years was a full-blown porn addict; it continued to blossom into a sex addiction that nearly destroyed his marriage. But he turned his life around and founded Restoring the Soul, a ministry that combines therapeutic principles with scripture to help men overcome unhealthy sexual dependencies. Michael talks with Paul Amos in this week’s podcast about the real damage porn addiction can do and how men can break free of it to lead more fulfilling lives.

When Shawn Ryan counsels addicts at Pennsylvania Adult and Teen Challenge, he speaks as someone who has seen addiction from the inside—and ridden it all the way to rock bottom. But even after relapses, a year in jail, and temporarily having his children taken away, he still had friends who weren’t willing to give up on him—and neither was God. This week Shawn talks with Nate Dewberry about his harrowing story and what saved him, with advice for both people struggling with drugs and parents desperate to save their kids from addiction.

Jeff Struecker’s 23-year career in the United States Army has taken him from the training grounds of Fort Moore to the bloody streets of Iraq and Somalia. It’s also taken him on a unique journey from soldier to chaplain, a journey that allowed him to share his faith with many other men in uniform and continue changing lives as the founding pastor of 2 Cities Church in Columbus, Georgia. In conversation with Paul Amos, the Silver Star honoree and Army Ranger Hall of Famer talks about how faith has impacted his military service and patriotism, being a leader to his own family, and learning to let go of our mistakes.

Fatherhood is full of challenges, pitfalls, and opportunities to make mistakes. In the Bible, though, God has given us all kinds of instructions on how to overcome them. Wrapping up this month’s theme of fatherhood, in this podcast Nate Dewberry talks about those lessons and how we can apply them in our own lives as fathers. One of the best things we can do, he says, is to emulate toward our children the kind of father God wants to be toward us—relational, approachable, and above all, forgiving.

The epidemic of absentee fathers in America has hurt countless children and imperiled their futures, but there is still hope for people even when they’ve had to grow up without a father. In this podcast, two adult men who grew up without their fathers—Peyton Linder of Troy University at Phenix City and Chase Tucker of River of Life Church—discuss the struggles they faced as children and the mistakes they made trying to heal the “father wound.” But they also talk about how they’ve risen above those challenges—and how they’re trying to “break the cycle” of fatherly abandonment by spreading the Gospel and being the mentors and role models children and fathers alike desperately need.

The Redeemed director Nate Dewberry introduces us to his son James, a 16-year-old on the track team at Auburn High School. Together they answer a series of blind questions covering everything from dream vacation spots and favorite books of the Bible to what they admire about each other and their shared experience of Nate’s divorce and remarriage. One recurring theme is that time passes a lot quicker than we think—which just makes it all the more important for fathers to teach, encourage, and love their children at every opportunity.

Jerrad Lopes didn’t have much of a role model for being a good father—his own dad bailed on the family when Jerrad was just 3—and he admits to making plenty of mistakes as a husband and father himself. But in an effort to process his conflicted emotions, he started a blog that went viral and eventually turned into the Dad Tired ministry, which tries to equip men to lead their families well—whether they grew up with good role models or not. This week Jerrad talks with Nate Dewberry about his ministry, filling the vital roles of spouse, parent, and disciple, and giving his children the tools to do the same.

Fathers are supposed to lead and enlighten their sons, but some sons are wise beyond their years—and share insight that changes both people’s lives. By the end of this podcast, you will agree that Mansell Amos—son of Paul Amos, founder of The Redeemed—is just such a person. The two generations balance raw honesty with deep compassion as they discuss Mansell’s faith journey, his strained relationship with his father, and how that relationship healed, along with advice for struggling teens and what it’s been like to grow into the role of a faith leader at a young age. It’s a conversation that will leave fathers and sons of all ages and walks of life feeling uplifted and hopeful.

Every redemption story has at least a few wrong turns and false starts. Musician and minister Tim Maggart will admit to a number of them in his life, including breaking up with the woman who would later become his wife. But appreciating what you have—and being willing to put it all in God’s hands when everything seems lost—has guided Tim to a fulfilling career in ministry, a marriage that’s stronger than it’s ever been, and a family that’s building an enduring legacy. Tim talks about all of it with Nate Dewberry in this week’s podcast, which includes poignant advice for men who feel their marriages slipping away.
