Doing Life Together Podcast Season 2 Episode 17

In this delightfully meandering (and longer-than-planned) episode, the hosts kick off with their unofficial 2026 theme: wild animal invasion stories.

First up — the dramatic conclusion to the 550-pound bear saga that lived rent-free under Ken’s house in Altadena, California for nearly 40 days. After failed attempts with dog barks, cherry-caramel scents (which only attracted the wrong bear), traps, and air horns, the elite Bear League steps in with a bizarre but brilliant 10-minute eviction: vegetable-oil paintballs and an electrified mat. Victory for Team Ken… until the bear (or a very similar large bear) immediately moves into nearby crawl spaces. Bear epidemic confirmed.

Then things get even weirder: a mother kangaroo escapes in Virginia (yes, Virginia), gets spooked by hunting dogs, ditches her joey on the highway, stops traffic, and requires a tranquilizer dart rescue. Cue the public service announcement: kangaroos are not easy pets — and definitely not HOA-approved.

Between bear strike teams, poverty pizzas, cheat-day cookies, furniture store misunderstandings, and a very chaotic hotel stay in Santa Fe, the conversation finally lands on the heart of the episode: what faith actually is — and what it isn’t.

Drawing from Mark 11, Hebrews 11, Acts 2, and the finished work of Jesus, they unpack why “faith in your faith” creates pressure and condemnation, and how resting in the faith of God — anchored in Christ’s completed work — brings freedom, healing, provision, and peace. No performance required. Just faith that Jesus was enough.

Expect laughs, real-life transparency about the Total Health Challenge struggles, a cookie taste-test interruption, and a heartfelt invitation to the upcoming Thrive Health Conference (September 11–13, 2025).

If you love real conversations that bounce from bear eviction tactics to deep spiritual truth (sometimes in the same breath), this is the episode for you. Grab a Topo Chico, settle in… and welcome to another classic Doing Life Together adventure.
