In this explosive Code Red interview, top attorney and Coffee & Covid founder Jeff Childers breaks down the FAST-MOVING reality behind President Trump's military action against Iran — the strikes that took out the Supreme Leader, crippled nuclear sites, and left the regime reeling.

S2 Ep 47Mistaken Identity - The Story of how a Tragic Hunting Accident Saved Thousands
In this powerful episode of Code Red, Pastor Zach Terry sits down with evangelist Mark Witt of Following Our Father Ministry. Mark shares the heartbreaking story of losing his godly father in a tragic hunting accident on the last day of deer season when Mark was just 12 years old. What began as years of bitterness toward God transformed into one of the most remarkable redemption stories.Through this pain, Mark and his brother Dan have seen countless people — including pastors, deacons, Sunday school teachers, prisoners, and everyday "rednecks" at wild game dinners — come to genuine faith in Jesus. Mark unpacks forgiveness, the reality of heaven and hell, why so many in church may be "missing heaven by 18 inches" (head knowledge vs. heart trust), and how God turns tragedy into eternal impact. This conversation will challenge you to examine your own eternity and encourage you to share the gospel boldly. If you've lost a father, struggled with unforgiveness, or wondered if God can use real pain for good — this is for you.
