    Episode 37 - Chasing After the Counterfeit with Jeremy Veninga (Part 2)

    In this gripping conclusion to Jeremy Veninga's story, we move past the side quests and into the moment of truth. Jeremy opens up about the "out-of-body" feeling of living a double life—climbing the stairs of a church while still returning to a home that held him in bondage. If you've ever felt like you were "running and gunning" but coming up empty, this episode is your wake-up call. From a desperate prayer on a lonely hill to a sudden, audible command at a workstation that changed everything in a heartbeat, Jeremy's experience challenges everything we think we know about the timeline of freedom. It's a raw look at what happens when you finally stop trying to "subtract" the darkness on your own and start adding the only presence that actually satisfies. We dive into the "secret sauce" of surrender and why the heaviest crosses aren't meant to be carried alone. Whether you are battling your own struggles or walking alongside someone who is, Jeremy's testimony is a massive testament to the fact that you do not have to fight alone. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in. Because God is always knocking.  The question is: will you answer?

    Episode 37 - Chasing After The Counterfeit (Part 1)

    Does a strong Christian foundation guarantee a straight path? In Part 1 of Episode 37 of The Knock podcast , Jeremy Veninga sits down to share his gripping testimony. After a sudden family disruption at age 12 , Jeremy traded his structured upbringing for the illusion of worldly freedom. What started with a joint at 13 quickly spiraled into manufacturing methamphetamine. Yet, even while carrying a meth lab in his trunk and going days without sleep , Jeremy explains the profound dichotomy of knowing God was still right by his side—proven by a miraculous $20 bill on the side of the highway. We dive into the danger of the "slippery slope" of compromise , the ways we try to replace God's peace with counterfeit addictions , and why we as Christians need to stop categorizing sin.

    Episode 36 - From Rock Bottom to Redemption with Jay Jamison (Part 2)

    In the conclusion of this powerful two-part series, Jay Jamison shares the raw, unfiltered moment his life finally broke. Sitting alone at 3:00 AM, surrounded by the remnants of his old life and a feeling of absolute hopelessness, Jay was finally brought to his knees. It was a desperate cry for a way out that was answered in a way he never expected. What follows is a remarkable journey of redemption—moving from a drug-induced seizure that left him dead for 17 minutes to finally finding the "home" he had been searching for his entire life. Jay discusses the crushing momentum of a downward spiral, the vital importance of biblical community, and what it truly looks like to live a life of total surrender after finally running out of road. If you feel like you've hit a wall or that you're too far gone, Jay's story is a testament to the truth that no matter how deep the hole you've dug, God's grace is deeper.

    Episode 36 -From Rock Bottom to Redemption with Jay Jamison (Part 1)

    How does a man go from having a "gang file" and face tattoos born out of self-hatred to finding peace and purpose behind a barber chair? In the first half of this powerful two-part episode, Jay Jameson joins Gerrad and Bobby to pull back the curtain on a life defined by "the victim Olympics". Jay shares the raw reality of growing up in a secular home marked by abuse, which eventually led him to seek a sense of belonging in the aggressive, high-octane world of the hardcore and punk metal scenes. For years, Jay used aggression as an outlet and pride as a shield, but the world he built eventually came crashing down. In this episode, Jay describes the devastating night he hit absolute rock bottom—losing his business, his home, and his relationship all at once, leaving him with nothing but his vehicle.

    Episode 35 - Obedience in the Face of Uncertainty: From Coach to Father with Aaron Shafer (Part 2)

    What does life actually look like after you say "yes" to the knock? In Part 2 of our conversation with Aaron Shafer, we move past the moment of surrender and into the season of restoration. Aaron gets incredibly vulnerable about the "fruit" of his obedience—specifically how God began to heal the relationships under his own roof. He shares the powerful transition from being a demanding "coach" to his children to becoming a present, loving father. We also dive into a deep discussion on what it truly means to be "sober-minded," the challenge of removing worldly crutches like alcohol and THC, and the spiritual discipline of fasting. This episode is a roadmap for any man looking to bridge the gap between a Sunday profession of faith and a Monday-through-Saturday walk of leadership and discipline.

    Episode 35: The Prayer that Changed Everything: Aaron Shafer's Wake Up Call (Part 1)

    What happens when a professional athlete hits rock bottom and realizes that everything he built was on a foundation of pride? In Part 1 of our conversation with Aaron Shafer, we explore the raw and honest story of his "wake-up call"—a journey from the highs of pro baseball to the crushing weight of personal exhaustion and a failing business. After years of relying on himself and his own talent, Aaron found himself at a breaking point. A blunt, late-night conversation with a friend who told him he "needed Jesus" initially made him furious, but it planted a seed he couldn't ignore. Join us as we hear about the desperate prayer in a kitchen that changed the trajectory of his life forever and led him to walk away from his business with absolutely no backup plan.

    Episode 34 - The Danger of Idolizing Theology Over God with Kevin Ford

    Most men experience the "slow fade"—drifting from God not by a sudden crash, but by slowly elevating their own pride, career, or even their biblical knowledge above a true relationship with Christ. Retired IFBB Pro bodybuilder and mentor Kevin Ford joins the show to discuss the danger of building a kingdom on your own ego. From living the fast-paced "rockstar" lifestyle as a touring Chippendales dancer to chasing accolades on the bodybuilding stage, Kevin experienced firsthand how easily worldly ambition can become an idol. But his biggest wake-up call didn't come from the secular world—it came inside the church. Kevin breaks down why having "perfect" theology doesn't equal a perfect heart, the arrogance of trying to win arguments instead of saving souls, and why true leadership always looks like serving the "least of these" If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in.

    Episode 33 — Stop Playing Defense: How to Run Offense Against the Enemy with Alec Wallingsford
