Triple Thread Podcast

Kevin Aldridge has worn a lot of hats -- journalist, pastor, professional basketball team co-owner -- but the thread running through all of it is a deep love for community and the people who shape us. In this episode, Pastor Lamar and Joey sit down with this Middletown native to talk faith, character, carrying a legacy forward, and why he's bringing a brand new minor league team called the Middletown Maulers back to the city that raised him. This one will fire you up. Pick up Pastor Lamar's book "Dirty Big Secret: Discovering the Need for Community" at Realcommunity4u.com -- and if you feel led to give to this ministry, donations are accepted there too. Available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Podbean. #TripleThreadPodcast #JoeyKoontz #LamarFerrell #KevinAldridge #MiddletownOhio #dirtybigsecret

Lamar and Joey sit down with longtime friend, filmmaker, producer, and documentarian Mike Webber for a conversation full of laughter, memories, faith, and purpose.   Mike shares stories from his early days in film, his friendship with Lamar, and the journey that led him into documentaries like The Elephant in the Living Room, The Student Body, and The Conservation Game. Along the way, they explore community, mentorship, diligence, family, and how God uses both preparation and opportunity to shape a life of impact.   From high school memories to Hollywood sets, undercover investigations, and the quiet joy of family, this episode is a reminder not to miss the moments that matter most.

Marla Davis didn't have an easy start — but she turned a broken childhood into a blueprint for leading with faith, resilience, and genuine care for people. Today she's a dual Chick-fil-A owner-operator with nationally recognized stores and a whole lot of wisdom to share. Pastor Lamar and Joey sit down with Marla for a conversation about overcoming isolation, building real community, and why your name matters more than your net worth. You'll want to share this one. Pick up Pastor Lamar Ferrell's book "Dirty Big Secret" at Realcommunity4u.com. Donations to support the ministry are welcome there too.
