“It's not who's right, but what's right,” asserts podcast guest Alex Rodriguez. The son of hardworking Cuban parents, Alex attended college on a baseball scholarship, hoping eventually to support his family. A torn rotator cuff abruptly cancelled the scholarship, forcing him to enroll in community college and get the job that began a 41-year relationship with Chick-fil-A. Regarding Chick-fil-A, Alex explains to host Dr. Matt Davis, “we don't just serve a chicken sandwich; we serve people,” a motto that identifies why the restaurant is different, and a philosophy closely linked to his mission. Alex recounts working with founder Truett Cathy, the struggles and amazing blessings as an owner-operator, and the joy of serving in a non-profit organization rescuing vulnerable souls from human trafficking and homelessness. Asked what makes him different, he quickly responds, “I know Who I serve.”
This episode's guest, Mr. Randy Tanis, is closely linked with Maranatha and Watertown, having graduated from MBU and having served as youth pastor at Calvary Baptist Church for 21 years. Originally, Randy came to college to play football, but then “surrendered to stay.” Working with Neighborhood Bible Time for three summers, he was drawn into youth ministry. He and host Dr. Matt Davis reminisce about how that decision remains the platform for his life's mission despite transitions in positions. Randy explains his determination as a youth pastor to center all youth activities on service, to recruit college students as helpers whom he could also mentor, and now as a camp director, to devote primary attention to preparing his college-aged staff to serve.
Jamison Coppola, Government Relations Director for American Association of Christian Schools, and host Dr. Matt Davis unite in this informative episode of OnMission to probe a topic of obvious mutual concern—religious liberty, especially as it relates to Christian education and traditionally-held Christian principles. They explain the implausibility of legislators and staff predicting all ramifications of proposed bills, especially with unknown modifications in the amendment process, and why this necessitates vigilant advocates. Using the proposed school choice bill, they illustrate how advocates can assure explicit language in a bill to protect interests. They discuss public policy, fluctuations in administrations, the vanishing of “common ground,” and the unfettered rapid rise of animosity across the “ideological spectrum” that collides with age-old Christian values and labels them “radical.” They conclude with an encouraging look at the “massive shift” toward homeschooling and growing options for private education.
Recent Artist Series soloist, master class instructor, and chapel speaker Dr. David Parker adds this episode of OnMission to the roster. Contrary to stereotypical expectations, Dr. Parker's exuberant laugh and unpretentious demeanor convey genuine warmth and belie his professional expertise that has afforded him invitations to perform and teach nationally and abroad, including opportunity to sing in a backup ensemble for renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. Marveling, Dr. Parker recalls the Lord's innumerable blessings, which engender gratitude and awe that drive his mission. He and host Dr. Matt Davis note how sacred music as worship should incorporate the same awe, coupled with reverence and fear of God, reflecting His glory, righteousness, and holiness with intentional, joyful worship. Having been a music educator for 41 years, Dr. Parker agrees that properly-motivated pursuit of success is not wrong, and he justifies encouraging excellence in students.
An episode from The Holistic Navigator. This is not to diagnosis or treat any disease/illness. Consult your physician before taking supplements or medications OR before you stop taking medications. This is for entertainment/informational purposes only! Whether you're planning a beach vacation and want to be confident in that new bathing suit, prepping for a body building competition, or you just want to accomplish your health goals, hitting the gym is what most people think is needed to build your best physique. The truth is much of the work is done outside of the gym and in your own home at the dinner table and your bed. Even if we train daily and exercise until we drop, if we don't pay attention to what we're eating, how much we sleep, AND what we do in the gym, few of us will actually meet the goals we set for ourselves. Some Questions We Discuss: How can we prepare for an event to have the best looking physique we can? (3:15) What do we tell people that have a goal in mind that will help them reach their goal? (7:07) What are the four concepts needed for someone to build themselves to the physique they desire? (9:22) What is the ideal nutrition plan to follow? (19:09) You have to have adequate essential fats. Where do you get those from? (23:31) What are your thoughts on sports nutrition supplements? (26:15) How much protein per pound of body weight do you take? (27:21) How do you choose the highest quality food? (29:15) What are the foods you avoid? (30:34) What do people need to think about when they are training? (34:20) This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm
Evangelist Glen Shank, whom former classmate and host Dr. Matt Davis knows as Shorty, served as a Maranatha representative for several years and as an assistant pastor for twelve. The Lord used both positions to gradually direct him into his present ministry. When asked his mission, he dedicated a week of intentional reflection, examining his life verse and “encapsulating” it into a comprehensive statement which he shares on the podcast. In reverse order, he and Dr. Davis look ahead at the projected trajectory of churches, revival meetings, and the “leaking away” of evangelists as a profession, and then look back at the early days of Shank Family Ministries. They discuss common struggles of evangelists, the necessity of courage and faith, the needs of smaller churches and becoming bi-vocational to assist those churches, and the importance of family and balanced priorities.
Tonight we interview Tracy's friend, Matt Davis. Matt is a man who wants to believe in the paranormal, and yet the paranormal seems to literally hide from him. Where some of us are "weirdness magnets" who attract the unexplained, Matt considers himself more of a "weirdness repellent." Can we convince him that the paranormal is real? We invite you to listen to the episode and decide for yourself. Welcome to Episode 158 of, "What In The...? Podcast!"
In this podcast interview, host Dr. Matt Davis and Dr. Charles Plummer, Maranatha's Human Resources director, discover they share common experiences of bagging groceries and playing trombone, albeit their trombone explorations ended differently. Trombone performance and music were Dr. Plummer's profession and passion. With a doctorate in musical arts in pedagogy and literature, he taught, played professionally, composed, and arranged music. Likewise, music was the reason he joined the U.S. Army as an older-than-average recruit—so much older, in fact, that he was called “Private Grandpa.” Drs. Davis and Plummer discuss music's message and how it moves us; how the Lord opens and closes “doors,” which He did for Dr. Plummer through an injury that ultimately landed him in human resources and then at MBU; and how he now applies his “Great Commandment” mission in his new position.
Advancing as a manager with Martin Marietta Corporation after college, Dr. Carl Herbster became convicted of the need to invest his life in something of greater eternal merit. His mission became “to serve God and to help other people serve God.” Dr. Herbster and host Dr. Matt Davis review the varied ministries Dr. Herbster's mission has included—from early days leading a fledgling Christian school, to the multi-faceted ministry of a pastor. Dr. Herbster explains the influential relationship he forged with former Attorney General John Ashcroft which ultimately led to establishment of his current ministry on Capitol Hill, AdvanceUSA. In conclusion, they examine present political developments related to Christian education and the need for a new generation to champion the cause, to say, as Dr. Davis quoted, “Here am I; send me”—a stance integral to Maranatha's goals.
OUR WORST GUEST RETURNS!! Listen to hear the journey of the other Dr. Davis and the world of sports medicine.
Having defined his mission in an earlier podcast, Mr. Sam Brock, Executive director of Ironwood Christian Camp, returns with host Dr. Matt Davis to analyze parachurch ministries and their partnership with independent local churches. They clearly acknowledge the primacy of the church in God's plan and the role of parachurch organizations to serve the church, but note the challenges that can threaten affiliations. Dr. Davis outlines levels of relationships, and Mr. Brock asserts the importance of maintaining “a constituency of One.” They examine the nuances of context, the reality of “communication lag,” the merits of traditions or lack thereof, and the inherent need for and inevitability of change and its effects. Dr. Davis encapsulates the podcast's purpose saying that others need to see how ministry leaders “grapple” with these complexities and the intense accountability they feel to make right decisions.
MBU associate professor Janet Tschida, regales host Dr. Matt Davis with the story of her delayed music education and the setback that threatened it. She explains her mission saying, “I remember in college thinking … what does God want me to do … where … and with whom … I was missing the fundamental question … who does God want me to be.” Having established her God-intended identity, she says her mission is “to encourage those in my circle of influence to do the same,” a sphere which now includes interns and students. Discussing benefits of music, Dr. Davis expressed appreciation for perspectives his sons gained in the music prep program, which “set the stage … to say, ‘Whatever, God, you've given me, that's something I can use in ministry,'” which Dr. Davis asserts in conclusion, “is a very Maranatha thing.”

Dan Bjokne joined MBU as Director of Development in May 2024. In this lively interview, he explains to host Dr. Matt Davis how he can trace God's hand in his life, from his first job in a reconditioned container factory to his “reconditioned” (reborn) soul as a public-school teacher, to his repurposed life serving in multiple ministries. Referencing Exodus 17, Dan describes his mission by saying, “I just want to be Aaron. I just want to be Hur. I just want to hold up … heavy hands.” When asked how that Old Testament picture drives him in leadership today, he quickly outlines a leader's need “to walk humbly,” to realize “it's not all about me,” and to acknowledge that “God can get this done without me.” He quotes a definition for servanthood he once heard: Taking the lead in going to the back of the line—a philosophy that echoes Maranatha's mission of servant leadership.

The scenario presented in this episode of On Mission is the following: a teen boy with no Christian background is saved while reading a gospel tract, immediately seeks a Bible-preaching church, and eventually becomes a preacher. Who would write that narrative? Only God. And that is guest Dr. Oliver's story. Dr. Oliver, a pastor and Maranatha's new board chair, discusses with host Dr. Matt Davis his mission to preach. They explore what preaching is and isn't, its essential components, how it parallels authoritative legal constructions, and the effects it should elicit. David's quest to engage another generation in selfless ministry (which he pursues through mentoring summer interns) is also Maranatha's mission—a mission he is responsible to protect as a board member. Noting his own legal profession and his guest's pastoral ministry, Dr. Davis pointed out that God has a calling for each one of us, whether it is nursing or education or business and humanities. The degrees that MBU offers, those the world thinks of as secular, they are ministry degrees when used for God's glory.

It would be an immense understatement to say that St. Louis Public Schools encountered profound challenges in the past few months. Not only has the district faced struggles providing transportation for students, but the Board of Education recently fired its superintendent. And members of that seven-person board are also eying potential school closures and difficulties recruiting and retaining special education personnel. On the latest episode of Politically Speaking, Board of Education members Toni Cousins and Matt Davis provide an in-depth look at St. Louis Public Schools' challenges — and why political leaders need to be engaged to help mitigate them.
Ministry often includes the unexpected, as Pastor Dan Pelletier recounts in this episode of On Mission podcast. Having served from the East Coast of the United States to a tiny island in Micronesia, Dan's heart is entrenched in youth and Christian camp ministries. However, when a conference center he directed closed, the Lord provided lodging in the steeple of Hamilton Square Baptist Church in the heart of San Francisco. Then, through a series of events, the steeple became home, and Dan became the pastor. “It was never my plan,” he adamantly states in recounting how God's plan unfolded. When asked his mission, he initially focused on youth ministry and readily responded, “Touching the future.” Now the scheme is broader. It is “touching the future” through the church, made up of affluent members as well as the homeless encamped around them, and of multi-ethnic people of all ages in the Bay area. “Touching the future,” as host Dr. Matt Davis summarizes, “with truth from the past.”
Dr. Matt Davis welcomes Jon Bladine, Director of Longview Camp in Arcade, New York, as his guest on this episode of On Mission. Jon discusses how the Lord guided him to camp ministry, the skills that have been beneficial, and those he had to acquire, as well as the challenge of revitalizing a struggling ministry. Out of college, Jon had plans to be a missionary pilot; his journey may resonate with those who have undergone training for a specific purpose only to be guided in a different direction by God. Dr. Davis and Jon swap memories of Northland in Dunbar, WI, where Jon grew up, and of various camp ministries Jon has been a part of. You will be encouraged by Jon's passion and testimony of God's hand in their lives through the camp ministry, and admonished to never second guess what God has done in a place where little fruit is visible. Ministry's value is eternal because it is about people.
Join Dr. Matt Davis as he talks with retired chaplain Lt. Col. Scott Nupson on this episode of On Mission. Mr. Nupson represents the Associated Gospel Churches Chaplaincy, a tool of the local church to endorse and send chaplains into limited access institutions (all branches of the military, Civil Air Patrol, Veterans Affairs, police, fire, federal prisons) in order to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Besides his career as a chaplain, he has been a pastor, husband of 35 years, and father of four, all whom serve faithfully in their local churches all over the world. Dr. Davis and Mr. Nupson provide context on chaplains in the American military, discussing their history and the spiritual needs of military personnel. They also address the legitimacy of the chaplain's role and Mr. Nupson's deployment experience and lessons learned. You will be encouraged by his faithful testimony of God's grace, and learn how to encourage and support the work of chaplains in our military.
In this episode of On Mission, Dr. Matt Davis gets to know 2010 graduate and MBU's new assistant athletic director and soccer coach, Jarid Lawson. In the fourteen years since graduating college, the Lord has kept the Lawson family on the move: from student teaching and meeting his wife in Missouri, to teaching, coaching and starting a family in Arizona, to Montana to be near family for a time, to his current role at MBU. In each place, God had remarkable coaches to mentor him: Gary Garrison as a youth, Jeff Pill in college, Paul Brown and Lynn Hesuinger in Arizona. Coach Lawson and Dr. Davis find common ground over the great need for godly teachers and coaches to disciple student athletes, and discuss the connection between teaching and coaching. Coach Lawson draws his personal mission from Psalm 31:1-3, to be the kind of believer that teaches and coaches those who want to be taught and coached, multiplying the biblical character and leadership God has so graciously been molding in him.
As mid-life and mid-career professionals, we have a lot on our plate both personally and professionally. How can we manage it all and still keep our head on straight? I talk with Matt Davis about how he approaches life, stress, anxiety and more as he manages a genetic disposition to severe mental health challenges. As somebody who has lost a loved one to mental health, deals with it regularly himself, and is also a caretaker of somebody dealing with it, he shares his own experiences and many good ideas and suggestions on how others can work on it themselves. Note: neither Matt or I are medical professionals. We both feel passionately about this topic and hope this can help support you through your mental health journey. Top Quotes: "Some people may question: Hey, do I really have anxiety or do I really have these things that we try to quantify? And my response would be, it doesn't matter. All of us have really negative feelings that we have to overcome each day. We're all doing our best and there are ways to overcome that." "If you really examine any time that you're feeling an overwhelming amount of anxiety or stress, or even depression, there's typically some sort of expectation hanging out there. Scientists can call this inner locus of control where. We have the ability to choose our life, to choose the things we do." "When I get into that anxious state, I really have to cut off the future for just a little bit. I call it the today is the greatest day I've ever known, where I have to really focus on the day that I'm in, the hour that I'm in." 5 areas of balance (SPARK): spiritual, physical, academic, relationships, character "The biggest thing is if you're struggling out there in any way that. If you just keep giving the effort, I promise things will get better, like, just keep fighting for it. Keep searching for the help that you need and things do change." "I'm not going to be limited by mental health, even though I have severe bouts with it, I'm going to go and live a life and go full steam ahead. And it may be painful sometimes, but it's something that we can all do. We all have that ability. "
Dr. Matt Davis talks with Maranatha's own nursing faculty member, Dr. Sarah Urban, on this episode of On Mission. With years of experience as a nurse, Dr. Urban has dedicated herself to nursing education, driven by the goal of training nurse leaders. Dr. Urban talks about the satisfaction of teaching and the excitement of watching her students succeed in the healthcare field. She discusses the many paths available to students after graduation, debunking the idea that nurses only work in hospitals or clinics—some may work in the community setting of a school or public health department, in the Army as a medic, in healthcare leadership, case management, nursing education, or even as a legal nursing consultant. And, Dr. Davis and Dr. Urban openly address the challenges of compassion fatigue, and of practicing faith in nursing—highlighting its holistic impact on patients' lives. “Nursing is a unique ministry that makes a difference in the lives of patients not only physically but also psychologically, emotionally, and spiritually.” -Sarah Urban, PhD, RN, CNE
In this episode of On Mission, Dr. Matt Davis sits down with Dr. David Canedy, Deputation Director of Baptist World Mission (BWM). A former accountant, Dr. Canedy's professional skills and pastoral gifts have been faithfully utilized by God in his current position to assist local churches in sending out missionaries. He discusses the process of missionary deputizing and board appointment, with a focus on BWM's criteria for candidates. Dr. Canedy and Dr. Davis then delve into the importance of being faithful servants and how it relates to our stewardship of time, talent, and treasure—and the solace there is in God's record-keeping. It is that eternal hope that protects us from the discouragements of life in today's grievance-driven culture, and what motivates Canedy to remain faithful in the smallest aspects of life.

On this episode of On Mission, Dr. Matt Davis speaks with Pastor Ron Perry of Faith Baptist Church in Folsom, California. Pastor Perry shares poignant life lessons from his experience as a pastor, police chaplain, husband, and father. One key he shared is the involvement of his wife and their entire family in church ministry. Pastor Perry shares his unique gifting of relational shepherding, and how it has played a large role in how he and his family experience the burdens and joys of ministry. Pastor Perry discusses his “seasonal” approach to living on mission, detailing what it looks like to "Put your Yes on the table for the Lord” and keep it there. Saying Yes represents the idea of surrendering to God's will, trusting in God's character—His goodness, love, and sovereignty—even before knowing the specifics of what He wants. As trust deepens with God, it gets easier to fully surrender; and the better we know God, the simpler it becomes to trust Him with our decisions.

GS963: Summary Matt Davis, the creator of Puttercup is this week's guest. Putter Cup is an innovative golf hole insert that offers two products: the Speed Bump and the Center Cup. The Speed Bump is a 360-degree raised incline around the golf hole that forces golfers to hit the ball with enough speed and helps correct offline putts. The Center Cup is a hole reducer that shrinks the size of the hole by an inch. Davis emphasizes that putting should be simple and that training aids should focus on concentration rather than mechanics. He also discusses his partnership with the First Tee organization and his plans for future product expansion. There's even more on this episode! A couple weeks ago PXG renewed their sponsorship of Golf Smarter, and once again, PXG invited Fred out for a fitting. The PXG fitting process was so interesting that we wanted to share it with you. Next week the PXG campaign will begin, and even though this could be interpreted as an informercial for PXG, rest assured that we received no additional compensation for including this edited recording in today's episode. It was completely at our discretion and in no way did PXG or my agency suggest that we include this.TakeawaysPuttercup offers two innovative golf hole inserts: the Speed Bump and the Center Cup.The Speed Bump is a 360-degree raised incline around the golf hole that helps golfers hit the ball with enough speed and correct offline putts.The Center Cup is a hole reducer that shrinks the size of the hole by an inch, making putting more challenging.Matt Davis believes that putting should be simple and that training aids should focus on concentration rather than mechanics.Puttercup has partnered with the First Tee organization and donates 5% of its sales to support their mission.Puttercup is planning to expand its product line with a portable golf hole called the To Go Cup.Puttercup is open to suggestions and feedback from golfers and is considering retail partnerships to make their products more widely available.Two ways to become a Golf Smarter Ambassador and receive a choice of one of these great prizes including: • Glove + Glove Compartment from RedRoosterGolf.com where you can now choose from a large variety of styles of gloves for men and women in 36 sizes! • A private link to Tony Manzoni's video “The Lost Fundamental” • A pack of 8 Flightpath Golf Tees.

For decades, Image Pointe's unionized workers have screen-printed clothing in Iowa. So, when the company contemplated starting its own American-made apparel factory that held true to the same ethical labor practices, Image Pointe CEO Josh Ruyle knew it had to be union-represented. In 2024, Image Pointe opened Dignity Apparel in Tennessee with 100% of its workforce represented by Workers United, making it the only union-knit fabric manufacturer in the U.S. Dignity Apparel's Ruyle and Matt Davis discuss why unionizing their workforce has been a critical part of their company's American-made success.

On this episode of March or Die, I'm joined by Matt Davis from Pastoral Transitions to discuss navigating life transitions, his experience with transitioning out of ministry, and what he's doing now with the Pastoral Transitions team. Matt served as a Teaching and Executive Pastor for more than two decades in Orange County, California. He is a graduate of Biola University and Talbot School of Theology. After going through his own pastoral transition out of ministry, Matt learned the difficulty of this season. After a time of wandering and figuring out what was next, he started a new venture as a brand strategist with Donald Miller at StoryBrand, working primarily with nonprofits and small businesses on telling their story and fine-tuning their messaging.

John and Craig host another round of the Three Page Challenge, where they give their honest feedback on three listener-submitted scripts. They offer insights into using sound realistically, writing action that can be easily directed, finding subtext in dialogue, and navigating complex points of view. But first, we dig into several tricky listener questions: How does a writing team discuss their individual work with their reps? When is it ok to say no to inclusive casting? And how do you break up with a producer? In our bonus segment for premium members, we delve into tough questions and offer advice to our younger selves. Links: Weekend Read 2 ROUTES by Colton W.
