Questions about whether a deceased person's soul can live on in the recipient of his heart, whether 1 Corinthians 15:44 confirms that babies in the womb have a soul, why bodies are important, how to explain the soul to a child, and how the spirit relates to the soul. Could the stories about recipients of donated hearts acting like the donors mean that if a person dies and his heart is donated to someone else, his soul lives on in the recipient? Does 1 Corinthians 15:44 confirm that babies in the womb have a soul when it says that if there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body? In light of your article “The Invisible Man,” why are bodies important? How would you explain the existence of a soul to a child or someone who has never heard of this idea? How does a person's spirit relate to his soul?

Join us as Emily, Natalia, Mason, and Maribel share stories of resilience and appreciation for growing up in military families. This podcast is made possible by generous funding from the Maxwell-Gunter Spouses' Club To learn more, visit https://www.maxwellgunterspousesclub.com/. Audio mixing by Concentus Media, Inc., Temple, Texas. Show Notes: Resources: Operation Homefront https://operationhomefront.org/ Military Child of the Year Award Recipients https://operationhomefront.org/military-child-of-the-year/ Bio: Emily, the Operation Homefront 2025 Military Child of the Year for the National Guard is 18, and the daughter of Rebecca and Juan Carlos Baldeosingh, an Army National Guard sergeant who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Her stepfather, retired Marine Sgt. Maj. Skip Amaker, served 26 years. His tenure included five deployments to Iraq and one to Afghanistan. Emily was 2 when her mother received the news on June 29, 2009, that Juan Carlos was among four North Carolina guardsmen killed in Iraq when an improvised explosive device detonated near their vehicle. He first served in the Marine Corps but transitioned to civilian life and, in 2008, joined the Guard. Being part of a Gold Star Family has shaped Emily. “I have grown up with the utmost respect for our country and those who serve to protect our freedom,” she said. “My family has always made it a top-tier priority to stay hopeful and stay positive through everything.” Natalia, the Operation Homefront 2025 Military Child of the Year for the Space Force, finds opportunity in the challenges that face military families. Natalia, 17, is the daughter of Maria Tapia and Chief Master Sgt. Jay Harris, who has served in the Air Force and Space Force since 1995. He is currently senior enlisted leader at Vandenberg Space Force Base. Natalia understands the hardships of changing friend groups and adapting to new cultures after attending 12 schools and enduring seven PCS moves that have taken the family to five states and one foreign country. At first, she saw the constant change and upheaval as a disadvantage. However, her perspective changed, and she learned to value resiliency. “I chose to shift my mindset, and now I appreciate the 12 supportive schools, 12 reliable friend groups, and seven different places that I can proudly call home,” she said. “Every one of these experiences has profoundly influenced my journey, instilling in me a deep appreciation for resilience and the importance of building meaningful connections.” Mason, the Operation Homefront 2025 Military Child of the Year for the Navy, earned a bachelor's degree before most of his peers finished high school. He reached the accelerated milestone while balancing academics with caregiving responsibilities at home. Mason, 19, is the son of Melissa and Chief Warrant Officer Jason Mosher of Marysville, Washington. Jason, a 20-year veteran of the Navy, serves as N6A at Commander Naval Surface Group Northwest and is based at Naval Station Everett. The family has made four PCS moves, including two to Japan, and Mason's father has been away on deployments, patrols, and missions at sea for 97 months. A homeschool student, Mason excels despite challenges of dysgraphia, a learning difference that affects written work and motor skills. He graduated high school at 16 and completed his associate degree from Liberty University four months later. He kept up the pace, and less than two years later graduated cum laude from Liberty University with a bachelor's degree in marketing and advertising. Maribel is Operation Homefront's 2025 Military Child of the Year for the Army is founding and presiding over a youth volunteering organization when her family was stationed in Japan, serving with the Red Cross, and dedicating herself to improving childhood literacy are just a few of the reasons. She is 17, lives in Kentucky where her father, Lt. Col. Nicholas Sikes, is stationed at Fort Knox. Her mom, Audrey Sikes, homeschools Maribel and her four younger siblings. In considering colleges, along with the usual items like location, financial aid, and aligning majors, Maribel must consider her food allergies and whether she can access allergen-free food stations. Her allergies and medical conditions are why she wants to study supply chain management and attend school in the Southeast. “I want to ensure that other kids will not be worried about where their next meal is coming from because the grocery store is out of the right allergy-friendly foods,” she said. “With a degree in supply chain…I will be able to make a difference in other people's lives by providing enough safe food for them.” Full biographies can be found at https://operationhomefront.org/2025-military-child-of-the-year-award-recipients/?internal_medium=internal&internal_source=banner&internal_campaign=thd-oh-25-03-internal-mcoy-traff&internal_content=D2503W61SB&sourceid=1153486.

From Ranger to Representative: Jason Crow on Service, Sacrifice, and Solutions In this week's Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus and Melanie are honored to welcome Congressman Jason Crow, who represents Colorado's Sixth Congressional District. A former Army Ranger and Bronze Star recipient, Jason brings the heart of a public servant and the grit of a soldier to Congress. From working minimum-wage jobs in high school to deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division and elite 75th Ranger Regiment, Jason's journey is a powerful testament to servant leadership. We dive into: • Jason's path from working-class roots to the battlefield and into the halls of Congress • How his military experience shapes his approach to leadership and legislation • His work helping veterans navigate life after service Tune in for a powerful conversation on service, sacrifice, and putting people before politics. In This Episode You Will Hear: • I got hooked in the military for college money. (8:00) • [The military] totally changed the trajectory of my life. (9:54) • I always make it a point when I run into a Vietnam vet; I say “Welcome Home.” (16:20) • [Marcus] Q: “Did you sign up for ranger school? What's that like?” A: “Well, it sucks.” (20:22) • Georgia is cold in the winter. It's just a fuck fest. You're just cold and tired and hungry for 2 months. (21:05) • College is good, but I tell a lot of folks is [to learn] a trade. (35:40) • The civil military divide: How little understanding a lot of people in America have of military service.

(44:47) • [Marcus] “You and I don't need enemies – we have friends.” (48:21) • [Marcus] “My brother never says anything nice to me.” (48:30) • [Melanie: Vets should] “Support each other, love each other, lift each other up. Talk shit in a good way. Hold each other accountable.” (49:10) • The greatest generation fought WWII, defeated fascism, and they came back and became the civic leaders, the political leaders, the business leaders.
