About The Podcast
The theme for August at The Redeemed is stories of hope and restoration. Paul Amos and Nate Dewberry give a brief introduction to that theme in this short edition of The Redeemed Man podcast, emphasizing the importance of sharing our stories with one another—both the stories of our sins and failings and the stories of our triumphs. Ultimately, we have to remember that any truly inspiring redemption story has to include some struggle.
Mike Malone’s life has certainly seen its share of challenges and low points, but none were more devastating than the cancer diagnosis he received in 2016. His treatment and recovery were long and at times painful, but over the course of that struggle, he learned things that transformed his life—how his prior experiences had prepared him for the battle; how he could let go of anger and bitterness he’d been carrying around for years; and how God was using cancer to help him become a better man. Mike talks with Nate Dewberry about all these revelations in this week’s podcast, as well as the importance of a loving wife and what we should really be looking for when we open the Bible.

Are You Growing Older or Growing Wiser?
“How much better to get wisdom rather than gold,” the book of Proverbs tells us, “to get insight rather than silver!” John Walt took that advice to heart as a teenager and sought out a series of mentors who nurtured his talents and shared the wisdom of experience. Along the way, he learned a great deal about maturity, manhood, and the sacrifices we must make to be truly transformed by the Holy Spirit.
How to Break the Cycle of Dysfunction
When Jake met his future wife, he describes the two of them as “two trainwrecks” who endured a long period of dysfunction because they’d simply never learned to relate to each other on a deeper level. Then Jake’s wife found a church, and a church family—and eventually he realized he needed to undertake a spiritual journey of his own if their marriage was to survive.
When You Can’t Fix It: Choosing Hope Anyway
In this conversation with Redeemed director Nate Dewberry, Jay shares what nearly two decades of walking through suffering, disability, marriage, fatherhood, and ministry have taught him about the kind of hope that survives when circumstances don’t change the way we want them to.
