Life is not a spectator sport. You were created for growth, purpose, courage, and transformation—and none of those things happen by accident. Crusade with Me! is a podcast for people who refuse to settle for drifting through life. It is an invitation to embark on a lifelong journey of becoming who God created you to be. Each episode explores the intersection of faith, discipline, wisdom, health, personal growth, and purposeful living. Drawing from Scripture, ancient wisdom, practical experience, and honest conversation, host Dave and Kathy challenges listeners to grow stronger in body, sharper in mind, and deeper in spirit. Whether we're discussing faith, resilience, habits, leadership, suffering, purpose, relationships, health, or the everyday challenges of modern life, the goal remains the same: To help you become more aligned with your calling and more capable of fulfilling it.

But before we go back to the ancient text, I want to start right here — in our time — in the way we often misunderstand sin. I saw a meme recently that said: “Society is just sinners judging other sinners for sinning differently.” That hit me hard. Because it’s true, isn’t it? In our modern world, we’ve distorted sin in both directions. Some people lessen it — they say, “Oh, that’s not really sin anymore, times have changed.” Others intensify it — magnifying someone else’s sin while ignoring their own.
