Ep. X - Global Missions

What does it look like to take the Great Commission to the ends of the earth—intentionally, strategically, and cross-culturally? In this episode, we explore how action sports and Business as Mission (BAM) come together to open doors in some of the hardest-to-reach places on the planet. Rooted in Matthew 28:19, Acts 1:8, and Romans 10:14-1, we unpack the vision of sending teams into the nations, leveraging sustainable enterprises and cultural understanding while using the global language of action sports to build bridges for the gospel. Like a surf expedition, missions begin with learning the break, honoring the people, and sharing the wave. As Ming-Chun Hung reminds us, “Business as Mission multiplies Kingdom impact,” and the gospel is always meant to travel—with power, passion, and purpose. - Instagram: @acalltoactionmovement // @ridenature Website: ⁠https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/⁠ [https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/] Docu-Series: https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home [https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home] 52 Week Devotional: https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/ [https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/] The Org: https://www.ridenature.org/ [https://www.ridenature.org/]

Ep. IX - Unity

What does unity look like in a church full of different gifts, cultures, styles, and convictions? In this episode, we dig into 1 Corinthians 12:12–27 and Ephesians 4:4–6 to explore the beauty of being “one body” with many members. Each essential, each unique, each called by the same Spirit. We talk about how Christians can avoid division over non-essentials, embrace diversity without compromising truth, and pursue love and humility when disagreements arise. From festival-style faith expressions to mission-driven collaboration, this episode unpacks why unity—not uniformity—is one of the gospel’s strongest proofs to the world. As J.I. Packer said, “Unity doesn’t require uniformity,” and as Keller reminded us, the church’s unity might be its greatest witness. - Instagram: @acalltoactionmovement // @ridenature Website: ⁠⁠https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/⁠⁠ [https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/] Docu-Series: ⁠https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home⁠ [https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home] 52 Week Devotional: ⁠https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/⁠ [https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/] The Org: ⁠https://www.ridenature.org/⁠ [https://www.ridenature.org/]

Ep. VIII - The Church

What’s the ultimate goal of missions? In this episode, we explore “the bridge." How every outreach, discipleship moment, and mission effort is ultimately intended to lead people into the life of the local church and a lasting relationship with Christ. Rooted in 1 Corinthians 12:27 and Hebrews 10:25, we unpack why the church is more than a gathering—it’s the Body of Christ and the spiritual family every believer needs. From worship and accountability to shepherding and mission, we look at what makes the church essential, whether it meets in a sanctuary, a skatepark, or on the shoreline. As Mark Dever reminds us, “The local church is the hope of the world,” because it’s where believers grow, belong, and live out the gospel together. - Instagram: @acalltoactionmovement // @ridenature Website: ⁠⁠https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/⁠⁠ [https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/] Docu-Series: ⁠https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home⁠ [https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home] 52 Week Devotional: ⁠https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/⁠ [https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/] The Org: ⁠https://www.ridenature.org/⁠ [https://www.ridenature.org/]

Ep. VII - Discipleship

Discipleship isn’t a program—it’s a process. In this episode, we explore the power of life-on-life investment, modeled in Matthew 28:19–20, 1 Corinthians 11:1, and 2 Timothy 2:2. We discuss why close proximity and intentional time together are essential for spiritual multiplication. Discipleship is messy, requires margin during challenging seasons, and measures success by fruit—character and obedience—rather than a calendar. As Dallas Willard said, “Discipleship is not a program—it’s a process,” and as Neil Cole reminds us, the goal is multiplication, not addition. - Instagram: @acalltoactionmovement // @ridenature Website: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/] Docu-Series: ⁠⁠https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home⁠⁠ [https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home] 52 Week Devotional: ⁠⁠https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/⁠⁠ [https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/] The Org: ⁠⁠https://www.ridenature.org/⁠ [https://www.ridenature.org/]

Ep. VI - The Good News

What is the Gospel, and why does sharing the full Gospel matter? In this episode, we unpack the power of God’s message of salvation as described in Romans 1:16–17 and 2 Corinthians 5:20, and why it’s meant to be shared boldly and authentically. We talk about presenting the Gospel in fundamental and relational ways through grace, Christ, and faith alone. From testimonies to simple everyday conversations, this episode is a call to live as ambassadors for Christ and to share the hope we’ve been given. As David Platt reminds us, “The gospel is not just fire insurance—it’s new life.” Tune in and learn how evangelism isn’t just an option for the believer—it’s our calling and our race to run. - Instagram: @acalltoactionmovement // @ridenature Website: ⁠⁠https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/⁠⁠ [https://www.acalltoactionconference.com/] Docu-Series: ⁠https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home⁠ [https://www.totheendsfilm.com/home] 52 Week Devotional: ⁠https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/⁠ [https://www.skatechurchmovement.com/] The Org: ⁠https://www.ridenature.org/⁠ [https://www.ridenature.org/]
