Jase is accused of being “the mean one” during his childhood, though he’s prepared a defense that lays the blame squarely at Willie’s feet. Jase participates in a neighborhood tradition that he’s ignored for decades, and it turns out that he enjoys it even more now.

Jase recounts one of the craziest wagers he ever won, and he swears he didn’t even think about cheating. Al is excited about a recent discovery of ancient stone tablets in Israel, and Zach points out that the Bible has been historically proven accurate many times over, more so than any other book from antiquity. The guys focus on the struggle that inevitably comes in life with following Jesus, but even that shouldn’t keep us from sharing Jesus with passion.

Jase struggles to prove to a machine that he’s not a bot, and he keeps a botanic secret from Missy every time she goes out of town. Zach points out one major flaw in the Robertson family for generations, but Al insists they’re turning it around. Jase worries that child labor laws may have been broken when he was a kid building duck calls, and the guys illustrate that maturity doesn’t have to do with how long you’ve been a church member but how your heart responds to Jesus.

Jase once ran off his best friend when he showed up drunk at Jase’s house, but Jase continued to pray for him.

Jase confesses to recently doing something that he was able to quit almost 20 years ago, and it came back to bite him. Zach’s dubious burger-cooking hack leaves Jase and Al feeling skeptical, and everyone knows Phil’s burgers are the best anyway. The guys compare getting to know Jesus to being in a marriage, except that Jesus never lets us down like our spouses inevitably will. Al ponders the fate of rapper Diddy, who used to be famous for his lyrical skills but is now famous for sex trafficking and domestic abuse charges.

Jase is on a roll between sparking controversy with church attendees, making fun of Zach’s fashion sense, and accurately comparing him to a famous cartoon character. Phil’s injury has prompted others to pick up the slack in baptisms at church, but it’s not quite the same. The guys discuss the nature of wisdom and how it’s described over time throughout the Bible. Zach offers a clue to the meaning of the biblical phrase “enemies in your mind.” In this episode: Colossians 1, verses 15-20; Colossians 2; Proverbs 6, verse 16; Proverbs 7, verse 27; Proverbs 8, verses 22–23; Proverbs 21, verse 30; Ephesians 1, verse 4, John 2, verse 1 “Unashamed” episode 982 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed — SAVE babies with your tax-deductible donation today! https://getliverhelp.com/unashamed — Get a FREE bottle of Blood Sugar Formula when you try Liver Health Formula. https://philmerch.com — Get your “Unashamed” mugs, shirts, hats & hoodies! -- Learn more about your ad choices.

Jase discovers a horror during the cleanup of his Tennessee home destroyed by a tornado and convinces Missy, the only person around, to help him deal with it. Al and Jase recall several verses about the “fragrance” of life, victory, and Jesus, including one that Phil crafted an entire sermon around. Jase advises a new Christian on how to share Jesus’ message effectively, and the guys agree that new Christians have valuable insight into Jesus, even if their delivery might need a little refining.

Jase, Missy, and Zach get a behind-the-scenes peek into “The Chosen" director Dallas Jenkins’ upcoming Christmas movie. Dallas opens up about what it’s like to tell a Jesus-centered story to a mostly secular audience. Missy's own experiences lead her to ask Dallas and his wife, Amanda, if it felt like Satan tried to interfere in this project, and Jase felt nostalgic to the point of tears watching the story of a church embracing a poor, rambunctious family.

Jase refuses to believe in the merits of pedicures, even though Al sings their praises, and Lisa returns for an update on her second reconstructive surgery post-breast cancer. Jase compares the fake news of man-made gods to the good news of the gospel, and Jesus was the prototype for God becoming man as well as God living among men. Lisa relates her tale of desperation that led her to Christ and how she realized she’d made her husband the lord of her life instead of Jesus.  In this episode: Colossians 1; Colossians 2; 1 Corinthians 8, verses 1-6 “Unashamed” episode 979 is sponsored by: https://preborn.com/unashamed — SAVE babies with your tax-deductible donation today! https://alpinegold.com — Get FREE shipping on orders over $200 with code UNASHAMED. https://BlazeUnlimited.com/Unashamed — Claim your spot & join the mission to defend free speech & uphold the American way of life! https://philmerch.com — Get your “Unashamed” mugs, shirts, hats & hoodies! -- Learn more about your ad choices.

Jase realizes that he’s been texting a stranger for years thinking it’s Sadie, and Korie drops a hint about a “big” new movie that she’s working on, as well as her brand-new podcast, "LO Mama" with Beth Redman. Phil wishes for a family directory since his branch of the family tree has grown so much. The guys and Korie marvel at the legacy of strong, godly women in their lives and how they’ve influenced generations.

Thanks to Elon Musk, Phil, Al, and Jase are joined by Zach for his firsthand account of Hurricane Helene relief efforts in North Carolina. Phil believes this is the perfect justification for bringing back outhouses, and Zach is in awe of how the church stepped in to care for storm victims, both physically and spiritually. Zach also offers on-the-ground insight into why central planning and the government could never take the place of kingdom people during a disaster.

Phil dropped an unflinchingly truthful speech that put him off the guest list forever, and Jase finds that since he’s turned 50, he’s lost a body part that served an essential purpose. Zach and Al offer evidence that Satan believes his own lies and thinks he might actually win the battle against God someday.
