The Season 1 Finale is here. But don’t get too comfortable. This is not the end. This is just the beginning. In this final episode of Season 1, I want to thank every loyal viewer, every wild one, misfit, and truth-seeker who’s walked with me through this journey. I’ll be stepping back for a short break, but trust me… I’m not done. I’m praying, listening, and preparing for what’s next. Maybe we interview others and discuss religion versus the real Jesus. Maybe we hit the streets. Maybe we go wher...

They said I was affirming sin. They said I was compromising the Gospel. But here's the truth: loving people like Jesus did has never been compromise. It's obedience. In this raw episode of Jesus in the Dirt, Jared Stadtman responds to waves of judgmental comments, especially toward the LGBTQ+ community and others often labeled as “too far gone” and calls the Church back into Kingdom alignment. This isn’t about going soft on sin. It’s about going hard on love. If you think walking with someone me...

The Church says it’s “family.” But when someone’s in need… where’s the action? We’ve turned Kingdom culture into empty catchphrases. We say “You’re family!” but don’t sacrifice. We say “I’ll pray for you” but don’t show up. We shout “REVIVAL!” but won’t meet someone’s rent. In this raw, real episode of Jesus in the Dirt , Jared exposes the Christianese epidemic in churches and calls the body back into real biblical alignment, where love looks like action, and no one is in lack (Acts 2:44-45). Th...

Jesus didn’t convert me… He met me in the dirt. If you think discipleship is just quoting verses, preaching at strangers, and calling out sin, you’ve missed the heart of Jesus. In Part 2 of "It’s Not My Job to Convert You," Jared Stadtman gets raw about what real, relational discipleship looks like. He shares how a faithful friend and his now-wife Whitney showed him love when no one else would. There were no conversion tactics. No hidden agenda. Just presence. Just Jesus… in the dirt. This episo...

It’s not my job to convert anyone to Christianity. That’s Jesus’s job. My job is to love. To serve. To shine. To plant seeds… and trust the Holy Spirit to water them. In this episode, Jared Stadtman delivers a freeing and challenging message for believers who feel the pressure to “win souls” through force, debate, or performance. This episode calls the Church back into Kingdom alignment with truth, love, and action.

The devil’s playbook is simple: make sin look normal and righteousness look weird. And it’s working… not just in culture, but in the Church. In this episode of Jesus in the Dirt, Jared Stadtman exposes a disturbing reality: The closer you get to God, the more uncomfortable you make religious people. But out in the world? They’re the ones actually listening. This isn’t about attacking the Church. It’s about calling it back to Kingdom alignment to look more like Jesus, and less like the institutio...

Did Jesus care about Rome? No. And He doesn’t need us to save America either. He didn’t protest Caesar. He didn’t align with the zealots. He didn’t wave a national flag. Because His Kingdom was never about preserving empires, it was always about saving people. In this raw, unfiltered episode, Jared Stadtman break down the uncomfortable truth: Jesus didn’t come to reform politics, He came to rescue souls. And if the Church keeps wrapping the Gospel in patriotism, we’ll miss the very people He die...

Jesus never said to “ask Him into your heart.” So why is that the foundation of modern salvation messages? This episode dives deep into what the Bible actually says about salvation, following Jesus, and what we’ve gotten dangerously wrong in the American Church. This isn’t about attacking the Church, it’s about realigning it to the Kingdom. Let’s stop giving people false assurance and start calling them into true surrender. Backed with scripture. Delivered in truth and love. Rooted in Jesus, not...

The Church doesn’t need revival… it needs reformation. We keep crying “revival is here!”, but what if we’re actually avoiding what God really wants: humility, repentance, and reformation? In this episode, Jared Stadtman lays it all out: · Why the Church isn’t ready for revival · What real reformation looks like · How we get back to the Jesus who meets us in the dirt This isn’t about calling out the Church. It’s about calling her back to the Kingdom she was built to carry....

I’m not against the Church. I’m against religion. And if you’ve watched this channel and misunderstood my heart… this one’s for you. This isn’t a call to leave the Church. It’s a call to bring her back to what Jesus actually created. Because the early Church flipped cities with no budget, no buildings, and no branding, just power, Holy Spirit, and people who actually loved. It’s not me vs. the Church. It’s us vs. the religious spirit that’s kept her bound....

If Jesus stayed in the mess… why is the Church running from it? We’ll never redeem what we’re not willing to stand in. We’re not called to separate, we’re called to show up. In this episode, Jared Stadtman delivers a raw and necessary wake-up call to the modern Church. This is not an attack. It’s an invitation back to the kind of love, power, and compassion that Jesus modeled in the dirt. Stop hiding behind pulpits, platforms, and buildings. Start showing up like Jesus did. This is what the real...

What if I told you the world isn’t rejecting Jesus… they’re rejecting a man-made version of church that looks nothing like Him? We’ve traded presence for performance. Power for polish. And what we’ve called “church” is often just religion in a better outfit. This episode isn’t about bashing the Church. It’s about calling it back to life. Back to the dirt. Back to Jesus. Let’s rebuild what religion broke.

The Church used to equip apostles, prophets, and pioneers… now it often silences them. This isn’t to attack the Church, but to call it back into alignment. This episode is for the misfits, the wild ones, sent ones, the foundation-layers, the ones who were told they were “too much” or “out of order.” If you’ve been hidden, overlooked, or labeled for obeying God’s voice… You’re not alone. You’re being deployed. Referenced: Ephesians 2:20 “This Church isn’t dying, it’s being rebuilt.”...

What if the Church actually became what Jesus intended: a refuge for the broken, the misfit, the addicted, the outcast, and yes… even those the religious spirit says don’t belong? In this episode of Jesus in the Dirt, Jared Stadtman exposes the gap between what the Church says and how it acts and issues a loving but unfiltered call back into alignment with the Kingdom. This isn't about attacking the Church. It’s about returning to the Acts 2 kind of family Jesus died to build. It's time for the ...

The Church said you were too wild. Too real. Too much. But what if you were never the problem… just the answer religion didn’t see coming? This episodes for the misfits, the prodigals, the pioneers, and the misunderstood. Those who were pushed out… not because they didn’t carry something powerful… but because religion couldn’t control it. This isn’t a hit on the Church. This is a mission back to it back to Acts 2, back to the real thing. If you’ve been burned, forgotten, silenced, or labeled… th...

I gave up everything to follow Jesus. And then He went silent. No answers. No breakthrough. Just pain, confusion, and the cold Idaho wilderness… living in a bell tent with my family in zero-degree weather, wondering where God had gone. I thought surrender would lead to blessing. Instead, it led to silence. But what I didn’t realize… was that God wasn’t gone. He was doing something deeper. He was stripping away the noise, the fear, the dependence on comfort and control… so I could hear Him differ...

The Church was never meant to blend in. It was meant to carry power. To flip atmospheres. To turn cities upside down. But somewhere along the way… We stopped carrying presence and started chasing platforms. We’ve become known more for our noise than our anointing. More for our politics than our power. More for our marketing than our miracles. In this prophetic call to the remnant, I unpack why Christians are losing influence… Not because the enemy got stronger… But because we got safer. I share ...

Let’s be honest, if Jesus showed up today… He wouldn’t be on a stage. He’d be flipping tables. And the people who’d cancel Him? Wouldn’t be the world. It’d be the Church. In this raw, controversial episode, I talk about why Jesus wouldn’t fit in our current culture or even our church culture. He wouldn’t choose sides. He wouldn’t keep quiet. He’d love recklessly, speak boldly, and make the religious crowd extremely uncomfortable. And if we’re not willing to face that truth, We might be following...

I couldn’t hear God anymore. Not because He stopped speaking, But because life got so loud… I forgot how to listen. In this raw, honest episode, I share what it’s like to be surrounded by chaos, pain, and pressure and wonder if God has gone quiet. I talk about the season after I got clean and sober 15 years ago… when the noise stopped, but Heaven felt silent. I was facing jail time, unsure of my future, and desperate to hear something; anything from God. I thought He was done speaking. But I was...

Some of the most burned out, addicted, and angry people I know… Grew up in church. They didn’t walk away from Jesus. They walked away from performance-based religion, shame, pressure, and silent expectations. In this raw and unfiltered episode, I speak to every church kid who played the part, wore the mask, and quietly fell apart behind the scenes. If you’ve ever felt unseen in the sanctuary or suffocated under the weight of always being “good”, this one’s for you. Jesus isn’t calling you back t...

The Church is failing the world. Not because Jesus isn’t enough... But because we’ve misrepresented Him. In this raw, unapologetic, unfiltered episode of Jesus in the Dirt , I speak directly to the Church, not to condemn it, but to call it back into alignment with the real Jesus. We’ve built platforms instead of people. We’ve handed the world religion instead of relationship. And Christianity itself, at times, has become just another system void of the Savior. This isn’t a rant. This is a righte...

I almost walked away from Jesus… Not because He failed me, but because His people did. This is the most raw I’ve ever been on camera. I’m exposing the painful truth I lived through: Church leaders preaching purity, partying in secret Being judged by people who said “Come as you are” Trying to share my story on a Christian platform; only to get torn apart And how Jesus met me in the dirt when everyone else turned away This isn’t about religion. This is about the real Jesus and the healing He brin...

“I Should Be Dead… But Jesus Met Me in a Hotel Bathroom.” This isn’t clickbait. It’s my real story. I was addicted, broken, and ready to end it all with a bag of cocaine in a hotel bathroom until I encountered a voice I couldn’t deny: the real Jesus. This episode isn’t polished. It’s not about performance or perfection. It’s raw. Honest. And if you’ve ever felt overlooked, misrepresented, mislabeled, or like you’ve wandered too far; you are not alone. This space is for the misfits, the prodigals...

In this first episode, Jared shares the reason behind the name of this show, and the stories from Scripture and his own life that shaped it. If you've ever felt like you don’t belong in church... like you’ve been disqualified, rejected, overlooked, or judged... this space was created for you. This is where religion ends.
