Summary

In Episode 245, I sit down with James Merrick for round two! It’s been nearly 200 episodes since our last conversation, and there’s a lot to catch up on.

James, a former Ranger Medic, shares his experiences serving in the Regiment during combat deployments. From there, we dive into the struggles he faced after leaving the military—a downward spiral of addiction and crime that nearly consumed him. But through resilience and faith, James fought his way out of that dark place. Today, he’s thriving as a firefighter and has built a strong relationship with God over the past few years.

I always appreciate reconnecting with my brothers, especially when their journeys have taken such powerful turns. I hope you enjoy Episode 245 of the Endless Endeavor Podcast!
