The world feels like it’s spinning a little more out of control every week. And we can feel it impacting our hearts. We are faced with a choice. Will we let our hearts turn cold, even though we know cold hearts don’t reach hurting hearts? Or, will we choose to stand firm and be bold, living a life of faith over fear and love over lashing out? Jesus followers + Bold hearts = world changers! Join our conversation about 'Kingdom Living in a Crazy World', and what it looks like to be a make-a-difference ambassador of Jesus Christ right now.Connect with us on social media and / or email:Twitter - @GoMADPodcastFacebook - facebook.com/gomadshowInstagram - @gomadshowYouTube - @gomadshowEmail - [email protected] find out more about us on our website: gomadpodcast.comEnjoy the show?

Have you ever had one of those unforgettable conversations? We definitely did as we sat down with Dr. Jerry Root, Wheaton College Professor Emeritus and longtime C.S. Lewis scholar. Fear too often makes even the most faithful followers of Christ go silent. We feel the pressure to “say it right,” we worry about rejection, and one awkward moment can convince us we are not cut out for evangelism. Listen in and hear us talk about a better way: sharing Jesus from a heart shaped by love, gratitude, and quiet courage. We unpack why evangelism is less about having a special gift and more about building real trust with real people. Jerry tells unforgettable stories from a pipeline crew, a donut shop regular who took nine months to say 'yes', and an airport delay that turned a simple survey into a surprising opening for grace. Along the way, Jerry gives a practical framework you can use today: ask public questions, listen closely, and let the answers earn you permission to go deeper.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share this with a friend who feels stuck, and leave a review if it helps.

This new episode is something really special - we’ve got arguably our favorite Hutchcraft on the show today, Ron Hutchcraft. Did you know you have one of the best M.A.D. tools with you all the time? It’s your Hope Story, and it’s powerful in Jesus’ hands! Recently, Ron and Doug hosted a six-session video series called, “Your Hope Story.” “Your Hope Story” is all about how to use your story to lead others to Christ. Ron and the bros interact with some of the interviews that are featured in "Your Hope Story,” and land us with some truly helpful principles for sharing Christ with people in your world.

We are really excited about today’s guest - Kristy Graham from Samaritan’s Purse. Kristy is the host of the podcast, “On the Ground with Samaritan’s Purse.” We had Kristy on the podcast way back in season 1. On today’s show, she updates Doug and Brad about the current state of things in Ukraine and Israel, what Samaritan’s Purse is doing to help, and what you and I can do as ambassadors for Christ, no matter where we live.

There’s an old saying that goes, “Show me who your friends are and I’ll tell you who you are.” If that’s true at all, things are looking pretty bright for Doug and Brad. Today’s episode features comments from some friends of the Hutchcrafts that were recorded at a recent conference. They were all given this question: “What’s one thing that Christians can do to make more of a difference?” Doug and Brad interact with some incredible answers. They also paint a vivid picture of Brad roaming the halls of a convention center lugging a 9 foot by 9 foot box.

The Super Bowl was one for the ages. If you watched it, you might have seen a commercial about Jesus with the tagline, “He gets us.” Not surprisingly, this commercial has been the center of a lot of talk, both positive and negative. The bros jump into the conversation, with this question in mind: how can we be Christ’s ambassadors concerning this ad? What can we say? How can we say it? And why does Doug inherently trust anything that Mr. T sells?Connect with us on social media and / or email:Twitter - @GoMADPodcastFacebook - facebook.com/gomadshowInstagram - @gomadshowYouTube - @gomadshowEmail - [email protected] find out more about us on our website: gomadpodcast.comEnjoy the show?

On today’s show, Doug and Brad bring their better halves, Anna and Sara, into the studio to talk love languages. But first, Brad has to break out a box of that weird heart candy that only shows up in February and Doug conducts a very confusing game of two truths and a lie. The four Hutchcrafts leave us with some incredible advice about being Christ’s ambassador in your marriage.

It’s 2024 and the bros are here to talk about the new year. Find out about the unprovoked coffee mug that attacked Brad and how Doug has been supporting Brad’s…resolution?

The egg nog, the cookies, the fruitcake - barring an upset stomach from all that sugar, it’s the brothers’ favorite time of year: Christmastime! Today’s episode takes a deep dive into the story of the shepherds found in Luke chapter 2. Even if the closest you’ve ever been to a sheep is the wool in your ugly Christmas sweater, Doug and Brad break down what the shepherds have to do with you this holiday season.

Well, the trees are going up and giant inflatables are filling your neighbors yard. That must mean it’s the Christmas season! And as the ringing of the bells outside of stores reminds us, it’s also the season of giving. But with so many people in need and what could also be a personally dry financial time, giving can come with challenges. On this episode of Go MAD, we’ll be taking a look beyond giving at Christmas into the heart of God who has a heart for ‘giving living’. We think you’ll be encouraged as we dive in with our guest host, Ron Hutchcraft, so stay tuned…and let’s go MAD!Connect with us on social media and / or email:Twitter - @GoMADPodcastFacebook - facebook.com/gomadshowInstagram - @gomadshowYouTube - @gomadshowEmail - [email protected] find out more about us on our website: gomadpodcast.comEnjoy the show?

Thanksgiving is upon us and we can’t think of a better conversation to share with you than our interview with Grammy-nominated, Dove award winning Blessing Offor. This past summer, Doug and Brad got a chance to sit down with Blessing to find out what makes him tick. How does he maintain such joy in the midst of hardship? Blessing does not disappoint. But before you can say, “Please pass the cranberry sauce,” or in Doug’s case, “Please throw the cranberry sauce away.” (You’ll see what I mean,) we clear up some personal Thanksgiving issues.

Well it’s that time of the year where egg nog is spontaneously appearing on the shelves and ghost decorations are making simple trips to the store feel like entering a haunted house (I’m looking at you Home Depot). But today, Doug and Brad hit on something that scares most of us year round - the fear of failing as a parent. What if I mess up my kids? What do I do when I know I missed the mark? How do I keep moving forward without giving up? All this and more as we dive into the second episode of the season.Connect with us on social media and / or email:Twitter - @GoMADPodcastFacebook - facebook.com/gomadshowInstagram - @gomadshowYouTube - @gomadshowEmail - [email protected] find out more about us on our website: gomadpodcast.comEnjoy the show?

Go M.A.D. Season 3 is underway! We are so excited about this season and can’t wait to share what’s in store. For now, Doug and Brad are joined in the studio by master of puns and fellow Hutchcraft, Ron Hutchcraft. In today’s episode, the guys turn their attention to the place the whole world is watching: Israel. What is going on and what is God doing in all this? No politics, no future predictions, just some clear steps forward for the ambassador for Christ wondering, what does this all mean for me? Connect with us on social media and / or email:Twitter - @GoMADPodcastFacebook - facebook.com/gomadshowInstagram - @gomadshowYouTube - @gomadshowEmail - [email protected] find out more about us on our website: gomadpodcast.comEnjoy the show?

Well, here we are, at the end of season 2. It's probably hard to hear over the sound of your disbelieving sobs, but when you calm down, Doug and Jesse are here to give you a flyover of some of our favorite Season 2 moments.
