Andy is a great man of God who deeply loves Jesus, his wife and kids! Pay attention to a man who has his priorities in place! 🙏

“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.” 2 Cor. 5:17

He’s also a first born who is entrepreneurial with goals of building wealth through real estate. 🙌

God created all of us in HIS image! 🙏 God has so much creativity and the fact that we were made in HIS image is nothing short of amazing!

Andy’s passion outside of his home is his ministry through Young Life! Reaching kids that don’t have a home where Jesus is followed or even talked about! To spend the time getting to know these kids and to “know their name”!

To learn more about being a volunteer in Young Life, get in touch with Andy! He will share his passion and desire with you and just maybe… it will light your fire to reach kids with the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

About Buddy Puckett:
Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years. A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married. This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage. We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well. Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled,
failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ!

“Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6

Mark shares his life from really bad decisions that left him feeling empty! The world promises much, but always delivers less than what God promises!

We are all ONE decision away from doing something that isn’t God’s best! But, thankful for the grace of God that is always available to each one of us!

Listen to Mark’s transparent and authentic story that causes him to make some drastic changes in his life!

We all have something that needs to be shared and redeemed… To be set free by addiction we must bring it into the Light of Jesus Christ! HE is the only ONE who can set you free! HE is where you will find forgiveness and redemption!

“Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” 1 Cor. 16:13-14

Great podcast with Mike! Anyone who has lived long enough knows that life will have its challenges, which he shares in this episode!

Mike had a great upbringing with wonderful parents and siblings, but that does not translate into smooth sailing with no problems in life!

He is transparent and authentic and shares the ups and downs he has faced and remains positive about where God has him at… 🙏🙏🙏

“Feed My People” is something Mike heard early on from the Lord and he has since opened up several restaurants and catering food trucks to obviously make a profit, but also be willing to feed those who need a good meal… physically and spiritually!

Go support Mike and his family at one of their local restaurants here in the mid-Willamette Valley!

Craig and I have a great friendship and it was awesome to have him on the podcast to share his journey of faith, marriage, kids, grandkids and discipleship!

He’s an all in kind of guy!

If you want to be challenged, meet up with Craig! He will encourage you in ways you may not have thought of and there will also be some Biblical exhortation!

Through our bi-weekly coffee meetings at Starbucks over the past couple of years, I have learned that we can mentor guys to be better husbands, fathers and disciples of Jesus Christ!

“And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age’.”
Matthew 28:18-20

David Brown in not just a guy I know, but a longtime friend of 45+ years! He shares his upbringing, growing up Catholic… and the feeling something was missing as a young man! But in 1984, he gave his life to Jesus Christ!

“Iron sharpens iron, So one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17

As David talks about in the podcast, knowing and accepting Jesus as your Savior, does not mean you never sin anymore… but it does mean you can humbly come to the throne of Grace and confess your sins and thank God for HIS forgiveness and incredible Mercy!

He has experienced a lot of life, which includes playing basketball in high school, going into the Navy, getting married, having kids, golfing, operating a business and now… being the OG (grandparent)! Sounds pretty cool! 😎

Jaffet and I have enjoyed deep conversations and this episode will prove to be no different. He’s a deep thinker, similar to Jordan Peterson, with lots of questions about life, consciousness and walking in God’s truth!

He admits that he struggles with this stuff… just like the rest of us! 🙏

The hope is that this will encourage you, the listener, to walk through Jaffet’s “Three sentence framework” to simply get you back on track to following God and being an obedient Christ follower that benefits you, your family, your community and the world!

1. Find truth

2. Have faith

3. Act it out in love
