In most of the nation, we are in the middle of the fall hunting season and as we think about the game we are chasing we know that they are extremely sneaky and elusive. God created most every game animal to be a master of hiding and they do it well.

On today's program, we will meet a father and son as well as our host and his grandson who all love the outdoors and love each other. They have a passion for all things hunting. They will share the story of how the son became like the trophies he pursued by being able to hide the truth about his life and his actions. But there is truth in the bible verse found in Numbers 32:23 where it says, “be sure your sins will find you out”.

There are hunting and fishing buddies who get together for time spent in God’s Great Outdoors and there are outdoorsmen and women who are always looking for an opportunity to spend time with others. Not having someone to share these times together in God’s creation takes away from the experience.

On today’s program, we will learn about a ministry that is serving outdoorspeople and sharing an important message in the process. They are building long term relationships with those they are reaching out to.

We will hear about our guest’s special needs daughter and her learning to love the outdoors.

All of us as hunters and fisherman have stories of the One That Got Away. These stories live on for a lifetime and often grow with each new season. The pain of loss eats at each of us more as time goes on.

On today’s program, we will hear from a husband and wife team who have lived most of their adult life in some of the least populated areas in the United States. They have had to learn to adjust to a life that many couldn’t handle. They felt called to this place and this life to serve the Lord. Hunting became a big part of their life there and disappointment became part of hunting.

Every one of us face storms in our lives from time to time. Some are just passing sprinkles that look bad as they are blowing in and others seemingly tear our lives apart. Where we take our shelter against these storms is what makes a difference in how we survive them.

On today’s program, we will face different storms. First, we are in the midst of an actual thunderstorm which has a little effect on some of our sound quality and actually knocks out the power at one point in the recording. The second storm that we will visit is a disastrous one that our guests went through in their lives when they lost their young son to cancer.

Like a farmer who plants seeds for future harvest, if we know Jesus Christ, we are called to be seed planters. If we fail to plant seeds, there will be no harvest.

On today’s program, we will meet a pastor who felt a calling as a young boy and then spent his life living out that calling. Over the last 50 years he has spent his time planting churches across the state of Utah and then spent several years teaching church planting to a new generation of potential church planters.

Often in life, we start feeling sorry for ourselves because things haven’t turned out the way we had hoped. We grumble and complain when things get tough. God never promised an easy or smooth flight, but he did promise that if we rest on Him, we will have a safe landing.

Often times we to come to places in life where some major change takes place. Generally we can see the cause and effect of those life changes. Some changes are for the bad and others are for something very good, even though we might not immediately see it.

This is the case of our guest today. Living through a near death experience that left him with very limited use of some parts of his body and forcing him to have to retire from a job that he loved, the tragedy did turn into something much better.

God will often change our direction to bring others to Him, for His glory. We can’t fight it, just trust Him and grow through it.

Once in a while, we come into contact with someone who has a heart so close to our own that we wonder if we have a blood relationship. You think alike and share the same convictions in life. Well today’s guest impressed on our host a feeling like that, although their accents are completely different!

Our guest will share how he came to realize that he had a serious obligation to raise his kids in a godly life and that he needed to be an example to them. Today we will share those things and some stories of hunting and family memories from past generations. We think you will enjoy the heart of this young man!
