If you're heading into the holiday season needing hope, this episode is for you. Pastor Ken Bulgrin shares two powerful miracles from his life—his newborn son facing skull surgery that never happened, and the tumors in his own neck that disappeared after a simple Bible study night. These moments shaped him, shaped our church, and remind us that God still moves when life feels impossible.We talk honestly about walking through hard seasons, finding real joy instead of the artificial kind, why God sometimes allows trials, and how to keep Jesus at the center of Christmas. This one is encouraging, personal, and full of faith. If it helps you, share it with someone who needs hope today.✝️ CHAPTERS00:00 – Cold Open00:50 – Welcome & Pastor Bulgrin introduction02:50 – Called to preach at 1406:50 – Childhood, divorce & early responsibility10:00 – Charlie & Pastor’s shared story12:00 – Christian’s birth and diagnosis14:00 – Midnight prayer & the miracle begins16:00 – Specialist reaction: “He doesn’t have it now.”17:30 – Pastor’s tumors and fear21:00 – Scripture cards everywhere22:50 – Bible study prayer line23:40 – Tumor gone by morning25:00 – Why God allows trials32:50 – Harvest Moon ad34:45 – Charlie’s flat tire testimony41:10 – Real joy vs artificial comfort44:05 – 1st Phorm sherbet debate46:00 – Christmas overrated/underrated52:40 – Little Debbie confessions53:50 – Real tree vs fake tree57:00 – “Chuck Thunder” wedding story59:00 – Final encouragement1:02:20 – Last Cast & close☕ SPONSORSBackbone Coffee (15% off – code CASTINGFAITH)https://backbonecoffee.com/?ref=casti...1st Phorm – Supplements we actually usehttps://1stphorm.com/castingfaithTwo Clever Fellas – Holiday lights & landscaping (Northeast Ohio)https://twocleverfellasoh.com/🧢 CASTING FAITH MERCHhttps://castingfaithpodcast-shop.four...🎧 LISTEN ON AUDIOSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5YoIPXp...Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ke/podcast...📲 FOLLOW USInstagram: @thecastingfaithpodcastTikTok: @thecastingfaithpodcastThanks for watching.Cast faith in everyday life.#CastingFaithPodcast #ChristianPodcast #MiracleTestimony #FaithStories #HolidayHope #ChristmasSeason #GodStillHeals #JesusIsHope #TestimonyTuesday #ChristianInspiration

The holidays bring the laughs, the chaos, and those moments that hit a little deeper. This week on Waders & Wives, we bounce between marriage quirks, spilled coffee disasters (RIP Brittney’s laptop), Thanksgiving food hot takes, Grandpa Joe slander, moon-landing debates, backyard science, childhood memories, grief, faith, and the weird heaviness November brings.
If the holidays bring joy, stress, or a mix of both — you’re in good company here. Pull up a chair at the campfire.🔥

In 1955, the U.S. Army released 300,000 mosquitoes over Georgia in a real-world experiment called Operation Big Buzz.
Charlie and Sean unpack that story and another forgotten study, Project Sunshine, connecting both to Isaiah 55–58 — where God shows that fake light fades, but truth always breaks through. 💡
Sean also opens up about his son’s battle with encephalitis after a mosquito bite and how that season deepened his faith and focus on what truly matters.
🎣 In This Episode:
• The wild truth behind Operation Big Buzz & Project Sunshine
• Why “fake light” can’t last (Isaiah 55–58)
• Sean’s story of healing and perspective
• Fishing talk, laughs, and real-life faith moments

10,000 Soldiers Vanished?! | Why God Said “It’s Not Good for Man to Be Alone”
🧠 10,000 Roman soldiers vanished without a trace.
What if the mystery of the lost Roman legion wasn’t just history… but a mirror of what’s happening today?
In this week’s episode, Charlie and special guest host John Miller unpack one of history’s strangest disappearances — 10,000 elite Roman soldiers who may have marched all the way to China and never came home.
But this episode isn’t just about mystery — it’s about isolation, brotherhood, and God’s design for community.
God said, “It’s not good for man to be alone.” Yet in a world full of disconnection and distraction, so many of us are marching through life solo.
🎧 In this episode:
The unbelievable story of 10,000 vanished Roman soldiers
Why isolation is one of the enemy’s strongest weapons
What “It’s not good for man to be alone” really means
Finding brotherhood and faith in a noisy world
Coffee, chaos, and a few trust issues along the way ☕️💀

What happens when you chase something in the wrong season? 🎣 Charlie hit the Grand River for steelhead… and got completely skunked. But sometimes God lets us wait — because faith out of season is still faith in progress.
In this episode of The Casting Faith Podcast, Charlie and David break down what it means to live ready:
⚡ The man who survived 14 months lost at sea
⚡ Why Israel’s shortcut would’ve destroyed their faith
⚡ Out of season = not wasted, but preparation for the promise
⚡ Sweat-tember belt trash talk + 90s nostalgia (WWJD bracelets, Discman skips)
📖 Scripture says: “To everything there is a season…” and even in waiting, God is preparing us for what’s next.
