In this special pre-Christmas episode, Kevin sits down with Captain Jon Engle of the Colton Fire Department. Jon shares a vulnerable and powerful testimony of enduring a "season of shadows"—losing his grandfather, a fellow engineer, a childhood friend, and his brother in a short span, all while navigating a life-threatening medical crisis with his newborn son.
The heart of the episode is the announcement that Jon’s nonprofit, Hold the Line Fishing, has officially merged with The Fire Up Program. Together, they are expanding their reach to offer recreational therapy and "tactical pauses" for first responders and their spouses.
Big thank you to My Epic and Facedown Records for the use of their song "Hail" in our podcast!
