My Double Life: Repentance & Confession - Jeff Parker, Part 2
In our last episode, we heard Part 1 of Jeff Parker's story. Jeff was the Vice President of a thriving Christian media company, but he secretly harbored a gambling addiction. This is the 2nd part of his story, so if you haven't heard the 1st half, stop right now and go listen to that.
To fund his secret gambling addiction, Jeff began taking shocking measures to hide his activity.
Jeff knew he should submit his life to Christ, but the chains of sin ran far deeper than even he realized. The only One who could set him free... was the One who had already broken the chains of sin.

My Double Life: Gambling Addict & Thief - Jeff Parker
Jeff was the successful Vice President of a Christian media company. Their products were used in churches around the world every Sunday and the company was thriving. Yet Jeff was carrying a secret. A secret that no one in his church, small group, or work could know about, but that ultimately could destroy him. Would Jeff continue on his secret path of destruction, or would he confess and repent of his sin, before it was too late?

MEMORIAL DAY SPECIAL: Grief in Afghanistan (Encore) - Jim Payne
In 2005, Jim deployed to the Middle East as part of a Navy SEAL platoon, alongside 15 of his closest friends and brothers-in-arms. Partway during their deployment, his team suffered devastating losses in the mountains of Afghanistan in an incident detailed in the best-selling book and hit movie “Lone Survivor”.
As Jim grappled with crippling grief, it was all he could do, to cling to the One who offered any glimmer of hope.
Note: We’re re-releasing Jim’s story today in honor of Memorial Day, when we remember and honor those who have served and fallen while defending our country. This story was originally released in 2021.
