When God lifts the weight off a man’s shoulders, He often hands him a mission.
In this episode, Steven “Wade” Cunningham shares the moment everything changed for him — a physical, undeniable sense of belonging — and how that encounter led him into decades of studying the relationship between Christians and Jews.

This conversation goes far deeper than a testimony. Wade and I explore the Jewish roots of our faith, the history that fractured our spiritual family, and the misconceptions that have shaped Christian thinking for centuries. We talk about the “blood guilt” verse, the role of Rome in the crucifixion, and why reconciliation isn’t optional for Christian men who want to walk in truth, courage, and humility.

If you’ve ever felt like something was missing in your understanding of Scripture…
If you’ve ever wondered how Christianity and Judaism truly connect…
If you want to grow into the man God has called you to be…

This episode will challenge you, stretch you, and strengthen your faith.

Topics We Cover:
• Wade’s powerful conversion moment (“the weight lifted”)
• The Jewish foundations of the Christian faith
• Why the Old Testament is essential for Christian men
• How one verse fueled centuries of misunderstanding
• The early church’s struggle with Gentile believers (Acts 15)
• What reconciliation looks like today
• Why Christian men must lead with truth and courage
