This week, Dudley and Sam explore what it truly means to be a man of God. Through stories, scripture, and honest reflection, they unpack how manhood is not defined by toughness or titles, but by awareness of God's presence in everyday life and everyday tasks.Together, they explore the dangers of toxic masculinity and call men into a deeper identity rooted in partnership with God.

Is the Rapture really what we think it is? In this episode, Sam sits down with Dudley to unpack common misconceptions about the End Times, Dispensationalism, and what the Bible actually says.For many, the Left Behind series and popular teachings have shaped their views on a secret rapture, tribulation, and eternal separation from God. But do these ideas align with Scripture? Will some believers be taken while others are left behind, or is there a deeper biblical narrative we're missing?During this deep dive into biblical prophecy and eschatology Dudley breaks down the truth about Jesus' return, the final judgment, and what it means to be in Christ when He comes back.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

This week, we're throwing it back to EPIC Conference 2020 and revisiting a message by our friend, Tullian Tchividjian titled “I Once Was Found, But Now I'm Lost.” In this powerful sermon, Tullian explores the depths of Christian identity crisis and the transformational journey of spiritual growth. Using the parable of the lost sheep, he highlights God's pursuit of sinners—illustrating how God relentlessly seeks and rescues us, even when we feel lost or broken. The message emphasizes that true Grace and redemption are found not in our own efforts, but in God's unwavering love and forgiveness. Through personal reflections and scriptural insight, Tullian challenges us to reassess our identities, encouraging us to root our worth in Christ rather than in our roles or achievements. This sermon is a powerful reminder that no matter how lost we feel, God will always come after us, bringing healing and hope. Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!
