Love Is Spelled T.I.M.E.

As we step into a new year, it’s easy to get caught up in resolutions, goals, and everything we should do next. But what if the most important question isn’t what’s next—it’s what really matters? In this deeply personal episode of the Unleashed Podcast, Brent Henderson reflects on Christmas memories, old photographs, and the powerful truth that moments—not things—shape our lives. Drawing from his own season of life as a father nearing empty-nest years, Brent explores why time is the most valuable gift we can give to God, our families, and the people we love. This episode introduces a simple but transformative framework—the could dos, the should dos, and the must dos—and explains why getting the order right is essential for balance, peace, and purpose. Brent also shares the full lyrics and story behind his song “Love Is Spelled Time,” a reminder that love is something you spend, not something you buy. If you’re feeling the pull to slow down, reset your priorities, forgive more freely, and live with greater intention in the year ahead, this episode will meet you right where you are.

Finding Peace When Christmas Hurts

Christmas can be one of the hardest seasons of the year—especially for men carrying grief from loss, divorce, broken relationships, or an uncertain future. In this deeply personal episode of the Unleashed Podcast, Brent Henderson is joined by Kevin Huff to talk honestly about grief at Christmas and how to find peace without pretending the pain isn’t real. Brent shares powerful personal stories of losing grandparents, parents, family traditions, and walking through divorce—and how grief has a way of resurfacing during the holidays.

If Christmas feels heavy this year, this conversation will remind you that: You’re not weak for hurting You don’t have to rush healing God isn’t asking you to surrender your memories—only the pain Perfect for men navigating loss, blended families, divorce, medical uncertainty, or emotional exhaustion during the holidays.

Walking the Trail From Unforgiveness to Forgiveness

Title: Walking the Trail From Unforgiveness to Forgiveness — Unleashed Podcast Episode 127 Unforgiveness doesn’t start as a boulder in the trail—it starts as a pebble in your boot. Pride. Anger. Hurt. Control. Those four small stones can turn into a weight that breaks a man down from the inside out. In this week’s episode of Unleashed, Brent Henderson takes you deep into one of the most rugged journeys a man can face: the journey from unforgiveness to forgiveness. This episode weaves together a powerful mix of wilderness moments, real conversations, and several personal stories that expose how unforgiveness actually forms inside us long before we realize it. Brent shares: A trail story with one of his closest friends—after years of hunting, fishing, backpacking, and ministry together—that reveals how brotherhood exposes what we’re holding onto. A vulnerable look at his own life, breaking down how pride whispers that we must be right… How anger convinces us we’re justified… How hurt blinds us to the bigger story… And how control keeps us from taking that first step toward freedom. He also tackles the fear many men face but rarely admit: “What if they reject me?” “What if forgiving makes me look weak?” “What if reconciliation never comes?” With biblical clarity and raw honesty, Brent shows that forgiveness is not about changing someone else—it’s about letting God change us. Because another person’s ability to forgive is ultimately between them and God, not us. If you’ve ever carried resentment… wrestled with disappointment… or felt trapped between wanting to forgive but not knowing how—this episode will give you the courage to take the next step.

Before the Lights Go Out

Christmas isn’t about recreating yesterday — it’s about showing up for the people we love today. In this deeply personal episode of Unleashed, Brent Henderson shares the story behind the title “Before the Lights Go Out” — from childhood memories of hanging Christmas lights with his father, to standing beside a hospital bed years later as the light slowly faded from his dad’s eyes. What do we remember at Christmas? It’s not the presents — it’s presence. It’s not the decorations — it’s love. Brent also honors his wife Stacy’s powerful story of redemption, how beauty rose from ashes in her life, and why she now creates spaces where others can experience warmth and the love of Christ. Through grief, reconciliation, unresolved pain, and forgiveness, this episode explores why healing only comes when we choose to show up and love well — before time slips away. You’ll be challenged to stop living in nostalgia or performance mode and instead embrace what Christmas was always meant to be: a season to connect hearts, restore relationships, and shine the Light of Christ where darkness has touched. This episode closes with Brent reading his original song for his wife, “Candles, Carols, and Icicles,” as a reminder that it’s the glow of God’s love that truly makes the world feel right. If you’ve struggled with loss, broken family relationships, estrangement, or the fear of wasted moments — this episode is for you.

Confront to Restore, Not to Crucify

Confront to Restore, Not to Crucify – Unleashed Podcast When is it right to confront someone—and when does confrontation become judgment? In this episode of Unleashed, Brent and Kevin explore one of the hardest questions men face: How do we speak truth without destroying relationships? The conversation begins with a powerful real-life moment when Kevin had to step in to confront a man who didn’t realize he was having a heart attack during a pickleball tournament—a confrontation that saved the man’s life. From there, the discussion turns spiritual: When should we confront someone we love? What does the Bible actually teach about confrontation? And how do we approach hard conversations with restoration—not punishment—as the goal? Using Jesus’ instructions from Matthew 18 to “go to them,” “take a witness,” and “bring it before the church,” Brent breaks down the biblical process for healthy, redemptive confrontation—including the misunderstood command to treat someone “like a pagan or tax collector,” which is not a call to shunning, but a call to begin again in love when repentance hasn’t taken root. This episode also addresses: The difference between godly confrontation and toxic judgment Why gossip makes us part of the problem instead of the solution How trust and relationship matter before tough conversations can heal What actually helps someone walk through addiction, sin, or struggle—and what never does Why “If restoration isn’t your goal, confrontation isn’t your calling.” Brent shares a compelling story from a plane ride conversation about shunning, along with the question he often asks church audiences: What wouldn’t help you grow when you’re struggling—and what would? The answers reveal the heart of real brotherhood: presence, grace, truth, and commitment to walk with someone toward healing. Grounded in John 3:17, the episode reminds us that Jesus came not to condemn the world—but to save it—and that men who confront for restoration become lifelines rather than executioners.

Before You Drift Off Course

When a man stops talking to God, something subtle begins to happen: he drifts. Not in a dramatic way — but slowly, quietly, almost comfortably at first. Until one day he realizes he’s far from the Father he loves. In this episode of Unleashed, Brent Henderson shares a powerful story from the Alaskan coast about drifting at sea for six days… all because communication was lost. And he connects it to what happens spiritually when men drift from prayer, from trust, and from hearing God’s voice. This message gets real about: – Why men slowly drift off course spiritually – How shame, busyness, and self-reliance keep us from prayer – Why God sometimes feels slow or silent when we’ve drifted – What David’s life teaches us about avoiding God… and coming home – How humility and honesty restore closeness with God If you’ve felt disconnected from God lately — not rebellious, just distant — this episode is a compass in your hand. Give God room to speak, and you’ll rediscover the nearness that was never gone — only forgotten. It’s time to stop drifting… and start talking to the One who never moved.

You Don’t Die for a Lie

You Don’t Die for a Lie Why the Disciples’ Courage Proves Jesus Was Who He Said He Was When you’ve lived the kind of wild stories I have — charged by a massive bear, caught a black mamba by hand, nearly drowned in a whirlpool, and almost crushed by a 500-foot glacier off Alaska’s coast — people sometimes ask, “Did that really happen?” I get it. Some of those stories sound unbelievable. That’s why I always tell them about the witnesses — the friends who were right there beside me when it all went down. In this week’s Unleashed Podcast, Kevin and I talk about why that matters — not just in adventure stories, but in our faith. Because the disciples didn’t follow Jesus because of what they’d heard — they followed Him because of what they’d seen. They saw Him heal the sick, raise the dead, and later appear to them after He Himself had risen. And that truth turned their fear into fire. These men didn’t die for a rumor or a religious idea — they died because they knew Him. No one willingly faces torture, prison, and death for a lie. In this episode, Kevin and I unpack the evidence, the eyewitness accounts, and the courage that prove Jesus is who He said He is — the Way, the Truth, and the Life. 🎧 Listen to You Don’t Die for a Lie wherever you get your podcasts. 💥 Subscribe, share, and be part of the resistance. Because truth isn’t fragile — it’s a Person. And His name is Jesus.

Listen and Let Go: Cutting the Line of Control

When the Holy Spirit says “let go,” obedience can save your life—and your heart.In this week’s Unleashed episode, Brent shares a powerful story from The Big 5 Mankillers about fighting a massive fish off Alaska’s coast—and how cutting the line saved him from disaster.Later, Kevin joins the conversation to help unpack what it truly looks like to surrender control, listen for the Holy Spirit’s voice, and break free from the unhealthy thoughts that have been tyrannizing our minds.

We Are The Resistance

In this episode, Brent Henderson and Kevin Huff rally men to rise up, fight back against passivity, and live out their God-given purpose. This isn’t about playing it safe — it’s about picking up your cross and living dangerous for good. The guys talk about what it means to move beyond comfort and convenience: “It’s not enough to wear a cross — you have to pick up yours.” We say we want God to bless us, but not to change us. We want just enough Jesus to inspire us, but not enough to transform us — because that would require more of us. So the question is — do we really want what God has for us, or do we just want Him to give us what we want? This episode calls men to action: lead a Bible study, host a men’s event, help a brother who’s down, and step into the fight. The Resistance isn’t passive — it’s powerful. We are The Resistance. Be dangerous for good.

It's Time to Risk

Unleashed Episode Title: It’s Time to Risk Most men live stuck in “ready … aim … ready … aim …” mode — but they never fire. They wait for perfect conditions that never come, holding back on the very things God has called them to step into. In this powerful episode, Brent and Kevin unpack what it means to take holy risks — to stop hesitating and start moving toward the life God designed you for. Brent shares lessons from the treestand, the hunt, and from cardiac rehab — moments when focus, faith, and obedience determined success or missed opportunity. Kevin brings practical insight on discipline, goals, and what happens when you finally pull the trigger on what God’s called you to do. It’s not about perfection. It’s about obedience. It’s not about control. It’s about trust. And it’s not about playing it safe — because faith always requires risk. If you’re ready to stop aiming and start acting, this episode will challenge you to move, to trust, and to live dangerous for good. t’s time to risk.
