| 6/1/26 | ![]() #536 Alex Banks - Growing Up Without a Father - and Then Finding Your Heavenly Father 6/1/26 | Imagine you have only a handful of memories about your Dad.

How would that shape your viewpoint of men and father figures? On this weeks show, Kurt and Chad welcome Pastor Alex Banks to talk about his journey as one of 6 boys in a fatherless home, and how trying to find validation and acceptance in areas of life, some good and some bad, and none of them filling the void.

| 5/26/26 | ![]() #535 JD Bergman - From World Class Wrestling to World Class Faith in Action 5/25/26 | World class is a term that can get thrown around a little too easily in our society.

On this weeks show, Kurt and Chad welcome Dove Award–winning, Grammy-nominated Christian worship recording artist, songwriter, speaker, and author (and Solid Steps Radio, opening song writer and performer) Louisville based Stephen McWhirter. “But behind the music is a story of radical redemption. Growing up the son of a traveling evangelist, Stephen witnessed deep hypocrisy at home that drove him into over 11 years of drug addiction, including crystal meth. One night at 3 am, while reading The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel with drugs on the table beside him, God showed up — and everything changed. Stephen never used drugs or alcohol again.” - website: https://worshipjesus.life/about What followed was a career that includes winning awards, over 100 million streams and more importantly a simple mission: worship Jesus and lead others to Him Buy the book - Radically Restored https://store.worshipjesus.life/collections/accessories | — | ||||||

| 4/27/26 | ![]() #531 From Triumph to Tragedy and Back to Triumph - This Time for Eternity 4/27/26 | From triumph to tragedy...and back to triumph. Few boys have had a “larger than life” father like Brad Tyrer had. His father, NFL pioneer Jim Tyrer, was physically larger than life - 6’6" and 300 pounds. And, he was as quick on his feet as he was big. His football resume was impressive. Jim played in the first Super Bowl and won in Super Bowl IV. He was an All-Pro Lineman for 9 years. This week, as Brad sits down with Kurt and Chad, he tells how his idyllic childhood took a tragic turn on September 15, 1980, and how his life would never be the same. Brad went on to make a name for himself as a linebacker for Tom Osborne at Nebraska. Bowl games and gridiron glory behind him, Brad developed meaningful friendships with men on and off the football field, and his life would again, never be the same. This time for the better...and for eternity. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!) | — | ||||||

A Drug addict by 13. Trafficked for sex as a teenager by a foster parent. Married 2x’s by age 21. Pimped out as a prostitute, including by the uncle that molested her as a child.
