Dad On The Clock | Mark Fuller | Episode #22

Mon, 25 May 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Mark Fuller went from being the self-described "leader of the fools" in professional baseball to bowing his head and receiving Christ in a San Diego classroom — and then spent the next 22 years wondering why God's plan looked nothing like his own. From the New York Mets to the SEC coaching ranks to getting fired and weed-eating lawns for $9 an hour, Mark's story is one of identity stripped bare, a desert that wouldn't end, and a father's heart forged in the process. Now a life coach, author of Dad on the Clock, and a man finally at peace with where God has him, Mark sits down with Ben to talk fatherhood, humility, and what it actually costs to become the man your family needs — to the glory of God.

Be Rooted In Scripture | Kevin Briggins | Episode #21

Mon, 18 May 2026 05:00:00 -0500

In this follow-up episode, Kevin joins us again for a discipleship-focused conversation on media discernment, political narratives, and what it looks like to think biblically in a world that wants to do your thinking for you. We talk about algorithms, audience capture, the overlap between political schemes and spiritual warfare, and why being rooted in scripture is the only anchor that holds.

There Is One Truth | Kevin Briggins | Episode #20

Mon, 11 May 2026 06:14:00 -0500

Kevin Briggins grew up in the inner city of Birmingham, Alabama. He joined the military, drifted far from the Lord in Panama City and Germany, and then felt something leave that he'd never lost before. Years later, he'd read about it in an RC Sproul book: the dark night of the soul. This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. Kevin takes us through his upbringing, the moment God pulled him back, how he met his wife (and shared the gospel on their second date), and what happened when the ideology of critical theory tore through his church. As the first and only black elder in a multiethnic congregation, Kevin had a front-row seat to something most people only argued about on Twitter — and he couldn't stay quiet. Kevin is a former intelligence analyst, the Managing Director of the Center for Biblical Unity, co-host of Informed Takes and Off Code podcasts, and an elder at his local church in Auburn, AL. 🔗 Center for Biblical Unity — centerforbiblicalunity.com https://substack.com/@kevinbriggins ⁨@KevinBriggins⁩ ⁨@InformedTakes⁩ ⁨@OffCodePodcast⁩ 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:27 First birth — growing up in Birmingham's inner city 00:09:30 Second birth — walking the aisle at 9 years old 00:13:12 Joining the military & drifting from the Lord 00:16:54 The dark night of the soul — feeling like God had left 00:20:01 The means of grace — why community matters 00:29:06 How Kevin met his wife & shared the gospel on date two 00:36:22 Dating advice — intentional dating, marriage, and leading 00:46:27 Ephesians marriage — leading like Christ, not like a CEO 00:52:12 Becoming an elder & the church that tore apart 00:58:29 What critical theory does to the church — a graceless Christianity 01:11:45 Providence — how a collapsed house deal brought Kevin to Auburn 01:14:34 Speaking out — from a Facebook post to a national conversation 01:18:06 Closing — what has God entrusted to Kevin Briggins?

These Are Not Your Hands | Yancy Carpenter | Episode #19

Mon, 04 May 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Yancy Carpenter grew up poor in Dothan, Alabama — fatherless, rebellious, and by his senior year of high school, convinced the best thing he could do for his family was end his own life. What happened instead, alone in the back room of a men's clothing store on the circle in Dothan, changed the entire trajectory of his life. In this conversation, Yancy takes us from the wiregrass to the mission fields of Uganda and the mud churches of South Sudan. He walks us through 20 years climbing the corporate ladder at Sysco, 15 years of unexplained infertility, failed adoption attempts, a miscarriage, and what it was like to finally hold Emily and Jack in a Dallas County courtroom — and then, at 40 years old, to find out Joy was pregnant on Mother's Day. He talks about what it means to leave a salary, insurance, and a pension behind when God calls you somewhere that can't match any of it — and how a tornado in Beauregard, Alabama became the unlikely provision that kept Four Corners Ministry's thrift stores running. This is a story about obedience over outcome, the cost of leaving comfort, and what it looks like to be entrusted with life itself.

Surrender to God’s Calling in a Comfortable Life | Taylor Teel | Episode #18

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0500

What happens when everything in your life is working… and God asks you to walk away from it? In this episode of Entrusted, we sit down with Taylor Teel (Executive Director of Camp Maranook) to walk through a story marked by survival, success, surrender, and ultimately obedience. From a life-threatening diagnosis as a newborn to building a thriving career, and then taking a massive pay cut to step into ministry, Taylor’s story is a powerful reminder that God is not looking for comfort—He’s looking for obedience. This conversation hits on pride, legalism, identity, calling, and what it really looks like to depend fully on the Lord when the path forward doesn’t make sense. If you’ve ever wrestled with what God is calling you to do—or what it might cost—this one is for you. Camp Marannook is a Christ-centered residential summer camp in Lafayette, Alabama focused on helping students encounter the Gospel, grow in their faith, and be discipled in God’s Word. Through intentional teaching, community, and mentorship, Marannook exists to raise up the next generation to know and follow Christ. https://marannook.org/ Timestamps 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:49 First Birth / Second Birth 00:16:45 Pride / Legalism 00:27:45 College Life 00:36:50 Dependent on God 00:38:45 Early Career Years 00:43:50 Primo 00:54:00 Getting Into Ministry 01:06:00 Wrestling With the Call 01:13:30 Taking the Leap of Faith 01:20:00 Stepping Into Ministry Life 01:27:30 When Everything Feels Like It’s Falling Apart 01:35:00 God’s Provision in Uncertainty 01:43:30 Building Something That Lasts 01:50:00 Trusting God Daily 01:55:00 What We’re Entrusted With 01:58:00 Closing

Ownership vs. Stewardship | Jim Corman | Episode #17

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0500

In this episode of Entrusted, we sit down with entrepreneur Jim Corman to walk through a life shaped by ambition, pressure, and ultimately surrender.

From building and selling companies to being told at 29 he might not survive the stress, Jim’s story takes a turn when faith becomes more than belief—it becomes the lens through which he makes every decision.

This conversation gets to the heart of what it means to live faithfully in the middle of business, success, and responsibility.

We talk about:

When faith becomes real, not just cultural
The cost of chasing success without perspective
What pressure reveals about what you trust
Stewardship vs. ownership
Why success won’t satisfy you
Moving from success to true significance

If you’re building a career, leading others, or trying to figure out what really matters—this one will challenge you.

Forging the Warrior Family | Josh Wetzel | Episode #16

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Josh Wetzel was leading patrols in Kandahar, Afghanistan when he stepped on an IED on May 31, 2012 — losing both legs above the knee. But this episode isn't really about the explosion. It's about what came after: Walter Reed, a marriage quietly falling apart behind closed doors, survivors guilt, depression, and a Facebook ad for a gym that started putting things back together. Josh sits down with Blayne, Brock, and Ben to talk about everything from the battlefield to Iron Tribe Auburn to the founding of Forging the Warrior Family — a nonprofit giving veteran families access to community, fitness, and each other.

Figuring It Out As We Go | (Habits, Rhythms & Raising a Family) | Episode #15

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Most people have already given up on their New Year's resolutions by the time you're watching this.

In this episode, Ben, Brock, and Blayne get honest about what it actually looks like to try to build better habits, and how often we fall short. From budgeting to working out to being present at home, these are three guys figuring it out in real time, not experts with it all together.

Ben shares a framework from Habits of the Household by Justin Whitmel Earley that helped him think through his roles, his vision, and the small daily things that actually move the needle. The conversation drifts into fatherhood, marriage, the Sabbath, and one of the most convicting ideas in the episode — your family won't rise to your aspirations. They'll fall to your habits.

No formulas. Just honesty, some laughs, and a real challenge at the end.

From Nominal Faith to Life on Mission | Hoffman Rhyne | Episode 14

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Hoffman Rhyne grew up in rural Alabama and came to Auburn University with a faith that was more cultural than real. What followed was a complete transformation—one that led him from nominal belief to a life spent on mission, including nearly two decades of ministry in China.

In this episode of Entrusted, Hoffman shares how learning to read the Bible reshaped his life, how cross-cultural missions exposed blind spots in his own heart, and what the global Church has to teach us about following Christ faithfully.

We also dive into unity in the Church, the dangers of consumerism in American Christianity, and how believers should approach disagreements with humility and conviction.

Today, Hoffman serves with Christ Our Redeemer Seminary in Auburn, Alabama—a seminary built in partnership with local churches to train and send Christlike leaders for God’s global mission. His work is centered on equipping ordinary believers, not just pastors, to understand the Bible, live faithfully, and take part in the mission of God.

If you’ve ever wondered how to grow in your faith, understand Scripture more clearly, or live with greater purpose, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

When Cancer Took My Voice | Bo Bradford | Episode #11

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0500

What happens when everything you thought defined your life is suddenly taken away?

In this episode of Entrusted, Bo Bradford shares his powerful testimony of faith after being diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. After mysteriously losing his voice in 2025, doctors discovered a tumor pressing against the nerve controlling his vocal cord. Further scans revealed cancer that had already spread throughout his body.

In the middle of suffering, uncertainty, and a life-altering diagnosis, Bo says the Lord used this season to humble him, expose sin, deepen his faith, and restore his heart for worship. From battling a hidden addiction to leading worship again months later, Bo’s story is a reminder that God is sovereign even in suffering.

We talk about faith, repentance, suffering, fatherhood, the hope of the gospel, and what it means to truly trust God when the future is uncertain.

If this story encourages you, consider sharing it with someone who may need hope today.
