What happens when the entire world shows up on your doorstep for the World Cup? You meet them and share the love of Jesus! In this dynamic and inspiring episode, hosts Bucky and Alli sit down with Landon Wilson to talk about a massive multi-church movement shaking up the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex: Jesus Saves '26. Organized by Time to Revive, this initiative unites dozens of local churches to hit the streets, stadium gates, and FIFA FanFest to bring the gospel to international visitors. But this conversation goes far deeper than a week-long stadium event. The team discusses the powerful biblical mandate of radical hospitality—a concept American culture often treats as "extra credit," but many global cultures view as a serious moral duty. From Alli's moving look at how she loves her literal neighbors—including a persecuted Muslim family from China and a Hindu family from India—to Landon’s encounter with a spiritually curious 15-year-old soccer player, this episode is a masterclass in everyday evangelism. If you've ever felt a "nudge" from the Holy Spirit but let fear dictate your silence, this episode will equip you to break the ice, drop the walls, and realize that you might just be the missing piece someone is waiting for.

In this episode, hosts Bucky and Grace sit down with Alaina, a full-time missionary serving with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) in New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and around the Pacific. She shares an honest, raw look at what it truly means to live a life of radical obedience to Jesus and how to navigate grief, relationship strains, financial pressure, and worshiping God when circumstances tell you He has forgotten you. Alaina also shares about learning to drive on the other side of the road, the beauty of cultures she's encountered, and why the next generation of missionaries desperately needs biblical literacy and emotional/character training.

Bucky expands on this by distinguishing between "peacekeeping" and "peacemaking." How do we move beyond the passive avoidance of conflict to pursue biblical Shalom—an active and often costly commitment to restoration and wholeness? Why does reconciliation sometimes come at the cost of hurt? The hosts round out the episode with a Top 5 Things ranking of their favorite travel essentials. Whether you are a seasoned missionary or preparing for your first trip, this episode provides a profound reminder that we are all called to the ministry of reconciliation, starting with the relationships right in front of us.
