What Peter, James, and John saw in the Transfiguration of Christ was prophetically anticipated in what Moses saw in the Burning Bush.

In this episode of Agents of Recovery, Coach Blu and Wendell explore the powerful habit of looking for proof, especially the kind we use to confirm the negative beliefs we hold about ourselves. Together, they unpack why we're so quick to gather evidence that we're not enough, yet often overlook the proof of our growth, resilience, and change.Coach Blu and Window dive into the question: What are you actually looking to prove? They examine how many of us unconsciously search for validation that we're “bad,” broken, or failing, only to discover that when we dig deeper, the evidence doesn't hold up. Instead, what often surfaces is something far more powerful.Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts.https://www.AddictToAthlete.orgIt's time!

In this message from our Renew: Building Relationships God's Way series, Wendell delivers a clear and challenging call to holiness in a culture that has normalized sexual sin. Rooted in 1 Peter 1:15–16, this sermon reminds us that God's standard has not changed and that grace is never permission to live in disobedience.Addressing sexual temptation, purity, and wisdom across generations, Wendell calls the church to choose wisdom over foolishness and to see the cross not as tolerance for sin, but as a declaration of war against it. This message speaks to singles, parents, students, and families, urging us to rebuild what has been weakened, set biblical guardrails, and live set apart for the glory of God.This sermon is honest, pastoral, and deeply rooted in Scripture, calling believers to devotion, obedience, and faith that is lived out when no one else is watching.

In a major blow to American healthcare, Congress has let the ACA subsidies expire. This means higher premiums and, as a result, fewer Americans enrolling. We are joined by Wendell Potter, former VP of Corporate Communications for Cigna turned whistleblower and healthcare reform advocate. Since 2009, Wendell has pulled back the curtain on how insurance giants game the system to prioritize profits over patients.Wendell shares the two stories demonstrating the inhumanity of the American healthcare system that pushed him to speak out. He also talks about the impact of the expiring subsidies and why it could be what he calls a "death spiral." But don't worry! Donald Trump has a plan... or at least concepts of a plan.Al and Wendell talk about the accomplishments of the ACA, while also acknowledging that Democrats should have done more to strengthen it during the Biden administration. Now with Trump and the Republicans in charge, any chance at meaningful reform is out the window.Plus, we revisit the December 2024 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and why that struck a nerve with so many Americans.READ Wendell's substack, HEALTH CARE un-covered: https://healthcareuncovered.substack.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORA smarter way to handle your shipping needs!

Four o'clock in the afternoon is just four o'clock in the afternoon…unless you encounter Jesus in some new and unexpected way. When that happens, that four o'clock in the afternoon will change your life. Divine encounters are real—and though they cannot be scheduled or manufactured, they should be expected. These divine encounters or mystical experiences need not occur at some sacred time on in some especially spiritual place—they can occur in the most ordinary places at a most ordinary hour, like four o'clock in the afternoon.

Wendell sits down with us to trace a jagged path from a strict church upbringing to years lost in addiction, from chasing belonging in all the wrong places to raising his hands in a hallway at home and discovering that surrender is the only kind of strength that holds. What follows is a raw, deeply hopeful conversation about purpose, identity, and the stubborn power of prayer.We talk about how a surprise welcome at LCC changed everything—familiar faces from an old worship team, a new community that felt like home, and a place to put his gifts to work. Wendell opens up about overdoses averted, the cost of pride, and the moment he stopped caring who was watching and started praising God anyway. He shows us how service can anchor recovery, why tears on stage are testimony not shame, and how mentors—from a gracious young leader to a steadfast uncle—helped him rebuild the habits that shape a life.If you're a parent of a teen, you'll find practical wisdom: say “you're loved” every day, protect car time for real talk, listen more than you fix, and turn small moments into sacred ground. If you love someone wrestling with addiction, Wendell's plea is simple and fierce—don't stop praying. He names the people who covered him daily and credits their faith with pulling him back when his own will faltered. For anyone hesitating at the edge of surrender, there's a bold challenge: prove your toughness by lifting your hands, not your defenses.Subscribe, share this episode with someone who needs hope, and leave a review to help others find these stories of grace, grit, and second chances.

In this episode of the Agents of Recovery Podcast, Coach Blu and Wendell explore a decisive shift in how to relate to emotional triggers in mental health and addiction recovery. Rather than treating triggers as threats to avoid, they frame them as trailheads—valuable starting points that lead to deeper self-understanding and lasting change.Episode OverviewCoach Blu and Wendell unpack the idea that triggers are not the problem; they are signals. When something activates a strong emotional response, it often points to an unresolved experience, belief, or wound asking for attention. By slowing down and getting curious instead of reactive, recovery becomes less about control and more about discovery.Throughout the conversation, they share grounded, real-world examples of how triggers show up in daily life and recovery spaces. From interpersonal conflict to internal self-talk, they demonstrate how asking why you feel the way you do can open the door to insight, self-compassion, and freedom.Key Themes Explored- Triggers as information, not danger, and how reframing them reduces shame and fear - Curiosity as a recovery skill, replacing avoidance with awareness - The difference between managing symptoms and understanding sources - How emotional reactions often point to unmet needs or past experiences - Practical ways to pause, reflect, and learn from triggering momentsThis episode is a reminder that every trigger holds potential insight, and that a bit of curiosity can go a long way toward meaningful, sustainable recovery.Join Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

The story of the Wise Men from the East led by a star to worship the Christ child is one of the most enchanting stories in the gospel. And for two thousand years this story has fascinated artists of all kinds—painters and poets, composers and writers.

Welcome to the Real Estate Investing School podcast. In this episode, host Joe Jensen interviews Wendell Butler, founder of Hammerhead Capital, Inc. At just 30 years old, Wendell has rapidly built a real estate investment business that spans single-family flips, multifamily rentals, and syndications, including being a general partner on a 32-unit multifamily deal. Despite only going full-time into real estate within the last year, Wendell has accumulated over 40 rental units and is systemizing his fix-and-flip operation to scale up to 50 properties a year. His journey began somewhat unexpectedly, as he originally pursued a path toward becoming a physician assistant but took a one-year break from school that exposed him to entrepreneurship. That pivot led him to real estate, leveraging nine-to-five jobs like sales and lending to build valuable skills and insider knowledge before taking the full leap into investing. Throughout the conversation, Wendell emphasizes the importance of strategic networking, due diligence, and conservative underwriting—advice he credits to both his lending background and personal experiences. His first "aha moment" came from a simple live-in flip of a condo, which netted him $70,000 tax-free after a year of ownership, proving to him the power of real estate. From there, he moved into house hacking with a duplex, using VA loan benefits and creative financing through family connections. Wendell shares valuable insights on structuring partnerships, particularly how he and his partners tackled their first larger multifamily deal without the expensive and complex syndication route, instead opting for a joint LLC structure with active investor participation. He underscores the importance of not relying solely on assumptions like rezoning or subdividing when underwriting deals and focuses on building long-term relationships and reputation as the keys to continued success. Wendell's story is an inspiring example of how consistent action, leveraging existing skills, and maintaining a learner's mindset can accelerate growth in real estate investing.

Incarnation is salvation. The moment the Word became flesh and joined the human race, salvation for humanity was guaranteed. Everything connected with this would have to play out in due course—a human life, death upon a cross, resurrection on the third day—but salvation for the human race was guaranteed the moment Mary said, “Be it unto me according to your word.” With the birth of Jesus, humanity would no longer be founded in Adam but founded in Christ. Incarnation is salvation.

In 735 BC Isaiah gave a prophecy to king Ahaz about a young woman giving birth to a boy called Immanuel—a prophecy that seemed to be fulfilled with the birth of Hezekiah and the destruction of Aram and Samaria. But there was to be a much deeper fulfillment of this prophecy—as deep as Sheol, as high as heaven—because the testimony of JESUS is the spirit of prophecy.
