We say it all the time—“Thank God.” But have those words lost their weight? In this solo episode, Don reflects on the power of those two simple words and how we can return to a heart of true thankfulness. With Scripture, a personal story from a recent forest scouting trip with Little Bear, and a reminder of God’s presence in the everyday, this episode invites you to slow down and mean it when you say… Thank God.

Episode 2 – God Is Not Done With You Yet
When life falls apart, it’s easy to wonder if God has forgotten you. But what if the mess you’re in is part of something greater? In this episode, we draw from Max Lucado’s powerful book You’ll Get Through This and the story of Joseph to remind you that your pain has a purpose—and that purpose is not finished yet.

Whether you're walking through grief, disappointment, or just trying to make sense of the season you're in, this episode is a warm fire on a cold night. You’re not alone. You’re not abandoned. And most of all—God is not done with you yet.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Bearded Bulletin Podcast — where faith meets the frontier.

In this kickoff episode, Don shares what this podcast is all about, how the outdoors connects us to peace and purpose, and a fire ant ambush that turned a rough camping weekend into a lesson in grace and grit.

If you love the outdoors, faith-filled reflections, and honest stories from camp, you’re in the right place.
