Jesus’ final words from the cross—“Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit” (Luke 23:46)—reveal His unwavering trust in the Father, even in the face of death. In the second part of this study, Dan and Robert continue their conversation with Daniel Puckett and Philly Nong, who served as interns with Robert at the Henderson church of Christ during the summer of 2026. Together, they explore the practical implications of Jesus’ words and consider what His example teaches us about surrendering ourselves completely to God. How can we entrust our lives to the Father when the future is uncertain? How does confidence in God change the way we endure suffering—and even the way we face death? Join us as we conclude our study of this powerful saying from around the cross.

As Jesus’ suffering on the cross came to an end, He cried out, “Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit” (Luke 23:46). These final words were not a cry of despair, but an expression of complete trust in the Father. In this first of a two-part study, Dan and Robert are joined by Daniel Puckett and Philly Nong, who served as interns with Robert at the Henderson church of Christ during the summer of 2026. Together, they consider the Old Testament background of Jesus’ words, what this statement reveals about His relationship with the Father, and how Jesus faced death with confidence because He knew He was in the Father’s hands. What can Jesus’ final words teach us about faith, surrender, and trusting God when we cannot see what lies ahead? Join us as we study this powerful saying from around the cross.

We’ve heard plenty of warnings about controlling our passions—especially when it comes to lust and sexual temptation. But what if the biblical conversation about passion is much bigger than that? In the Season 14 premiere of Authentically Adam, Wayne explores how our passions include the desires, fears, anger, impulses, and emotions that influence how we respond to life. Passions aren’t always sinful, but they aren’t always trustworthy either. Left unchecked, they can control our reactions, shape our attitudes, and even drive us toward passivity, isolation, worry, and frustration. Using examples from David and Elijah, along with biblical teaching from Romans, Ephesians, Titus, 1 Thessalonians, and 1 Peter, this episode considers how godly men can understand and properly direct their passions. The goal isn’t simply to suppress what we feel. Instead, our passions must be ruled by a mind that is itself ruled by God. Three qualities can help us get there: • Clarity of mind — 1 Thessalonians 5:4–8 • Stability of soul — Titus 2:2 • Readiness to act — 1 Peter 1:13 Godly masculinity isn’t passionless. It is passion brought under the rule of God. Episode Resources: "Leadership and Emotional Sabotage" by Joe Rignely
