    Two Missionaries. One Call.

    Send us Fan Mail One nervous “I don’t feel ready” night can change everything. We sit down at the Beyond Sunday table with Mark and Chacho from United in Christ Ministry Worldwide, missionaries serving since 2000, and walk through the real story of how God connected them through street evangelism and turned that moment into a lifelong partnership in the gospel. We talk global Christian missions in a grounded way: where their team serves across the United States and Mexico, plus ministry connections reaching India, Israel, and Brazil, and even prayerful steps toward Poland. But the heart of the conversation stays personal. Brother Mark shares how growing up around Sunday church without weekday faith pushed him away, and how Jesus met him anyway. Brother Chacho opens up about success that still felt empty, religion without relationship, and the instant difference he felt when he surrendered to Christ. From there, we get practical about discipleship and everyday evangelism. We unpack why God often sends people out in pairs, how accountability and complementary gifts keep ministry healthy, and how discouragement can quietly grow into quitting if we don’t confront it early. We also share what short-term mission trips can do for your faith: learning to pray in public, share your testimony, and seeing your hometown as a mission field again.

    True Surrender Brought Victory

    Send us Fan Mail Your marriage can survive betrayal and addiction, but only when the foundation is deeper than feelings and control. We sit down with Spencer and Jennifer Caudle for their first time on Beyond Sunday, and they share a vulnerable, hope-filled testimony of Christian marriage restoration. Jennifer grew up with the pain of divorce and carried a vow to never let her future family fall apart. That fear shaped everything, including where she looked for safety.  Their story moves through real-world consequences: cheating that comes to light, the exhausting weight of hidden sin, and the ways we try to cope when we don’t know how to heal. Jennifer talks about numbing with alcohol and marijuana and trying to control life so she would never be blindsided again. Spencer explains the relief that confession brings, even when consequences still follow. As they commit to church and spiritual growth, Jennifer describes conviction through Bible study, the battle to surrender substances, and a powerful encounter at a women’s conference that resets her identity in Christ.  Just when it seems like the worst is behind them, more layers surface: porn addiction, insecurity, nonstop fighting, and the lie that “I’m not enough.” They share what it looks like to rebuild trust, walk through forgiveness, and learn that healing is a process, not a switch. Then another shock hits, a message from a 21-year-old claiming to be Spencer’s child. That moment exposes the root issue again: misplaced security. Through Scripture, surrender, and honest repentance, they land on the truth that God alone is the strong tower and the only safe place to build a home.  If you’re navigating betrayal trauma, addiction recovery, or you’re simply tired of carrying fear and control, this conversation points to a better foundation.

    God Used A Knee Infection To Bring Me Home

    Send us Fan Mail A funeral could be the end of a story, but for Doug Caldwell it became the moment God started writing a new one. Doug joins me to share a raw, relatable testimony about growing up in church, drifting away for decades, and still telling himself he believed even while he avoided real discipleship and regular church attendance. Then one day, at a funeral service, the Word of God lands differently and he can’t shake it. He goes home, looks up CFOCHURCH online, and realizes God has been closer than he thought.  Things get even more urgent when his knee replacement takes a dangerous turn. Doug explains how an infection, the lead-up to a dream Alaska cruise, and the shock of learning it could be deadly forced him to face mortality head-on. We talk about fear, repentance, and why “tomorrow is not promised” is not a slogan, it is reality. If you’ve ever lived on the edge of “I’ll get serious later,” you’ll feel the weight of this conversation.  From there, the story turns hopeful and practical. Doug describes walking into Christ Family Outreach Church with a walker, feeling out of place, and then being met with unexpected kindness and community. We dig into what changes when you come back consistently: peace replacing road rage, prayer becoming daily, hobbies getting reordered, and faith moving from a private idea to a lived reality. Doug also shares how men’s ministry, Thursday Recharge, and even a simple Bible app helped him trade scrolling for Scripture, and why baptism now feels like a meaningful next step.  If you’re on the fence about going back to church, let Doug’s story give you the nudge you’ve been waiting for.

    Ready For Work

    Send us Fan Mail Your calendar can be full and your soul can still be unprepared. We sit down as a family around Titus 3 and let Scripture confront the places where Christian maturity gets tested the most: authority, speech, and the everyday choice to serve. I’m Pastor Lee Day, joined by my wife Erica Day and my mom Sheila, and we take Paul’s command seriously, to be ready for every good work, not only when it’s convenient but also when it interrupts our plans.  We talk about biblical submission to rulers and leaders, what it means to obey without compromising God’s Word, and why respectful conduct matters for your witness. Then we get honest about the damage done by gossip, slander, and quarreling, even when what you want to say feels “true.” One line becomes a gut-check for everything we say out loud or type online: is it anointed or is it poison? We connect that to Ephesians 4 and James 3, and we challenge ourselves to let prayer replace the urge to vent.  From there, Titus 3 pushes us into the harder work: gentleness and perfect courtesy toward all people. Erica frames gentleness as strength under control, and we reflect on how mercy changes your tone, your timing, and your reactions. Paul’s reminder that we were once foolish leads straight into the gospel hope: God saves us by mercy, renews us by the Holy Spirit, and keeps chiseling away the old while shaping the new. We close with practical ways to stay devoted to good works and wise boundaries for divisive behavior that threatens unity in the church.  If this encouraged you, subscribe to Beyond Sunday, share it with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

    Job Description

    Send us Fan Mail Your ministry does not start when you walk into a church building and it definitely does not end when you walk back out. We open Acts 6 and follow the early church as it grows so quickly that real people get overlooked, then we watch how wise delegation protects the mission without treating service like “less than.” Stephen is chosen to handle a practical need, yet Acts 6:8 says he is full of grace and power, doing great wonders and signs. That contrast forces an honest question: have we been calling something “not my job” when God is calling it obedience? We talk about what it means to be Spirit-filled in everyday life. Yes, the Holy Spirit comes at salvation, but surrender is what invites Him to take full control. I challenge the idea that Christian leadership depends on talent or personality and instead point to the anointing that comes when ordinary believers yield every area of life. We connect Stephen’s example to the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, because disciple-making is our real job description at work, at home, and everywhere else we represent Jesus. Then the tone shifts as Stephen faces dispute, false witnesses, and violent resistance in Acts 6 to 7. Even with truth on his lips and Jesus in his sight, he is stoned and his final words mirror Christ-like forgiveness. We also sit with a sobering warning from Leonard Ravenhill and a piercing question from John Newton about churches drifting from the Spirit’s leadership, and we end by praying for hunger, sensitivity, and a life lived in God’s overflow. If this challenged you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review. What would change this week if you fully surrendered control? Support the show
