Ed Underwood went from a party life to a Christ-centered life when he came to faith as part of the California Jesus Movement. He learned what real discipleship was and learned to follow Jesus and love His Word. It led to ministry in both healthy and unhealthy churches as a pastor. Eventually it led to Ed's role as Senior Pastor at Church of the Open Door. In "retirement", Ed extended his impact on churches, pastors and leadership through The Recentered Group.

From a child growing up in a communist country to a force for change in the next generation, Iulian Avramescu tells his story on this new podcast. He explains the difference in life before and after the revolution in Romania. His desire to be cool is overcome by a radical conversion from a friend who kept inviting him to a Bible club for students. That led him to more education at Word of Life Hungary and eventually the USA. He knew God was calling him back to his home country to impact the next generation. It led to Life Romania, MIA College and a nationwide evangelistic and discipleship ministry that continues to change his country to this day.

"If we're not going...who is?" says Jonathan Buchanan in this special crossover event with an interview that begins in this episode of YouToo and concludes in the PreGame Show (also on the Waterbrook Digital Network). Dave Burchett and Jeff Denton welcome Waterbrook Student Ministry Pastor John Robbins and Harbor Young Adult Ministry Director Jonathan Buchanan in for a two-episode event in which they talk about the motivation to go to Ukraine and help those being pummeled by war. Jonathan shares that "Trust was the key word." To be propelled into action as the world is still rebuilding from the pandemic may be the best medicine for what we've been through. Again, Jonathan said, "sometimes the way to heal a body is to get moving." The guys reveal details that have been kept silent and we learn the danger Jonathan was in and the peace they all experienced. Dave Burchett and Jeff Denton talk with Jonathan Buchanan and John Robbins about their experiences on this edition of You Too?.  The rest of the interview (with more of the fun stories) concludes on the PreGame Show (released Friday, April 29, 2022). 

"I didn't see that coming" might be the book title of my life, says Ray Miranda. "That Sunday morning I walked into church I was still drunk from Saturday night." But that Sunday changed everything in Ray's life. "I became a Christian and didn't even know it." Ray has spent the days since growing in his faith and, eventually, shepherding others in faith as a pastor. His story is one of encouragement as he gradually grows and ends up founding The Story Church (Wylie) in 2009. But the pandemic ended up leading to a new change that might seem like a death to some. "I had always thought about the end and how hard that would be." But, God actually revealed a new path through old relationships. It's a story of change, openness to God's plan, and how allowing your story to be God's story can lead to things you didn't see coming. Dave Burchett and Jeff Denton talk with Ray Miranda about his life journey on this edition of You Too?. 

"My journey has been excruciatingly slow," says Eric Snodderly.

Eric opens up regarding his life story that he says is still a work in progress. Dave Burchett and Jeff Denton talk with Eric Snodderly about his life journey on this edition of You Too?. 

What does Texas Rangers baseball, Stars hockey games, Barney the purple dinosaur and Waterbrook live streams have in common? The influence of broadcast audio engineer Malcolm Johnson. A musician living a sex, drugs and rock-and-roll lifestyle, he wandered into a church service to hear a rock band. That night changed his life and life direction. An accidental date with a fellow college student led to the love of his life. A career change led to a role behind the scenes of a global children's show. An Emmy-winning broadcast engineer is respected for his work on live televised events (including Texas professional sports teams and the Olympics). He tells us his story and how he finds the voice of God cutting through all the audio channels filled with sound. "It's not me in control. I'd given that up long ago." Dave Burchett and Jeff Denton talk with Malcolm Johnson about his life journey on this edition of You Too?.
