What does it really mean to follow Jesus when the cost is high?

In this week’s episode, Jerrad reflects on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk; not just as a political figure, but as a brother in Christ who boldly proclaimed the gospel until his final moments.

Drawing from Luke 9 and his own experiences at the Dad Tired retreat, Jerrad challenges men to slow down, quiet the noise, and seriously ask: Am I all in with Jesus?

You’ll hear:

Why silence matters for hearing God’s voice
How Charlie Kirk’s final words point us to courage and hope
The danger of being overly eager or overly cautious in discipleship
What it means to “count the cost” before putting your hand to the plow

This episode is a sobering call to examine our “but first” excuses and to step fully into the life Jesus is calling us to live.
