About The Podcast
Luke Parker is a college athlete, a reality show contestant, and a modern man who, like many of us, has faced difficulties and temptations in life. However, he has found the security of God’s love and the knowledge that he is not alone in his struggles to be a source of strength. Luke, a competitive CrossFit athlete, describes himself and others as “fellow beggars” searching for bread. In this week’s episode, Luke talks to Nate about his challenges, some of which he acknowledges were self-inflicted. He also shares how honest and open relationships with God and other men have helped him stay on a positive path.

Healing After Betrayal: Finding Hope and Trusting God Again
Dalton Nunamaker was on a nine-month Army deployment, living in a tent in a field in Poland, when he experienced a crippling one-two emotional punch. First his parents told him they were divorcing over issues of alcoholism and infidelity. Then just a few months later, Dalton discovered his wife of less than a year had been unfaithful while he was overseas.
Replace the Voices with Verses
Of the 10 years Josh Summers spent as a missionary in western China, the last few months were by far the hardest: Twice he was hauled into jail by Chinese police for interrogation, the second of which lasted 17 days. And as he sat alone in a cold, barren holding cell with nothing, not even his Bible, he tried to take inventory of what scripture he could remember by heart—and realized he didn’t have nearly as much of it down as he thought he did.
Finding the Strength to Persevere
This week, The Redeemed founder Paul Amos and director Nate Dewberry offer thoughts on the topic of perseverance: How do we do it? Why do we do it? And how do our struggles make us stronger, better people?
