  A Man After God’s Own Heart — David, Courage, Failure, Repentance, and Purpose. Feat Kevin VanDuser Sr.

  Oct 2, 202652 minS1

  Send us Fan Mail In Episode 11 of Gospel Unfiltered , host Cornell Bunting sits down with Kevin VanDuser Sr. for a powerful conversation centered on the life of David , one of the most complex and compelling figures in Scripture. David was a shepherd, musician, warrior, fugitive, king, father, worshiper, and leader. He experienced extraordinary victories, painful failures, deep grief, and moments of sincere repentance. Yet Scripture still remembers him as a man after God’s own heart . In this episode, Cornell and Kevin explore what that really means. The conversation follows David’s journey from the shepherd’s field to the battlefield, from facing Goliath to leading a nation, and from public success to private failure. Together, they discuss courage, preparation, leadership, friendship, fatherhood, accountability, temptation, repentance, emotional honesty, and the importance of returning to God after falling short. This episode also explores how David’s hidden seasons prepared him for public responsibility, why he refused to wear Saul’s armor, what his friendship with Jonathan teaches us about relationships and accountability, and what his failures teach leaders about humility and character. A major focus of the conversation is Psalm 51:10 : “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.” David’s story reminds us that being after God’s own heart does not mean living a perfect life. It means having a heart that remains open to correction, willing to repent, and determined to return to God. This episode is for anyone who has ever faced a giant, struggled with leadership, made a serious mistake, experienced regret, or wondered whether God can still use them after failure.

  Episode #10

  For Such a Time as This (Esther, Courage, Purpose) Feat Dee Dee Smith

  Sep 25, 202654 minS1

  Send us Fan Mail In Episode 10 of Gospel Unfiltered , host Cornell Bunting sits down with Dee Dee Smith for a powerful conversation centered on the biblical story of Esther and what it teaches us about courage, identity, preparation, influence, and purpose. Esther’s story is more than the story of a woman who became queen. It is the story of someone who was positioned in a place of influence before she fully understood why she was there. Together, Cornell and Dee Dee explore Esther’s journey from loss and hidden identity to courage, advocacy, and action. The conversation examines what it means to recognize when God has prepared you for a specific moment and how faith, wisdom, prayer, timing, and courage all work together when purpose requires something from us. This episode also explores: How adversity can shape strength and resilience The difference between favor and responsibility Why timing matters in difficult conversations How courage can exist even when fear is present The importance of prayer and spiritual preparation What it means to use influence to help others Why silence can sometimes become a decision How personal testimony can become a tool for advocacy The responsibility leaders have to speak for those without access What it means to be positioned “for such a time as this” At the heart of the episode is Esther 4:14 : “And who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” This conversation is for anyone who feels overlooked, uncertain about their purpose, afraid to step forward, or positioned somewhere they do not yet understand. Sometimes purpose is not revealed when the door first opens. Sometimes you understand why you were placed there only when the moment arrives that requires your voice, courage, and faith.

  Episode #9

  From the Pit to the Palace — Joseph’s Journey of Betrayal, Preparation, and Purpose Feat. Antonio Dominguez

  Sep 18, 20261h 3mS1

  Send us Fan Mail In Episode 9 of Gospel Unfiltered , host Cornell Bunting sits down with Antonio Dominguez for a powerful conversation centered on the life of Joseph and the journey that took him from betrayal and imprisonment to standing before Pharaoh. Joseph’s story is one of the clearest biblical examples of how purpose can survive betrayal, false accusation, delay, disappointment, and seasons of being overlooked. This episode explores Joseph’s journey from his early dreams to being rejected by his brothers, sold into slavery, tested in Potiphar’s house, falsely accused, forgotten in prison, and finally called before Pharaoh to interpret the dream that would change the course of his life. Together, Cornell and Antonio discuss: What happens when the promise feels real but the process feels painful How betrayal can affect identity and purpose The importance of integrity when no one is watching Why doing the right thing does not always produce immediate rewards How to remain faithful during seasons of delay What it means to use your gifts before recognition comes The difference between being forgotten by people and forgotten by God How adversity can prepare someone for leadership Why spiritual maturity matters when opportunity finally arrives How Joseph moved from simply having a dream to becoming a problem solver and strategist A key moment in Joseph’s story comes in Genesis 41:16 , when he tells Pharaoh: “It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.” That moment reveals how much Joseph had matured. The dream remained, but the dreamer had changed. This episode is for anyone who feels betrayed, overlooked, delayed, falsely judged, or stuck in a season where their purpose seems far away. Sometimes the promotion looks sudden, but the preparation rarely is. Join us as we go Beyond the Pulpit for honest conversations, real stories, and Kingdom truth.

  Episode #8

  Moses, Identity, Calling, and the Courage to Obey God Feat. David N. Thompson

  Sep 12, 20261h 1mS1

  Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Gospel Unfiltered , host Cornell Bunting sits down with David N. Thompson , man of God and author of Who in the Hell Do I Think I Am , for a powerful conversation about identity, calling, fear, failure, obedience, and purpose through the life of Moses. Moses’ story is one of the most relatable journeys in Scripture. He was born into danger, raised between two worlds, made serious mistakes, ran from his past, questioned his ability, and repeatedly asked God why he should be the one chosen for the assignment. At the burning bush, Moses asked a question many of us have asked in one form or another: “Who am I?” This episode explores what happens when our past, insecurity, fear, or failure begins to speak louder than God’s calling. Cornell and David discuss: Moses’ struggle with identity The meaning of the wilderness season Why failure does not automatically cancel purpose Moses’ excuses and fear of inadequacy The importance of obedience even when you feel unqualified Confronting the “Pharaohs” in our lives Deliverance, transformation, and renewing the mind Leadership, accountability, and the danger of carrying too much The importance of mentorship and preparing the next generation How faith helps us answer the question: Who am I really? The conversation also connects deeply with David N. Thompson’s book, Who in the Hell Do I Think I Am , and the ongoing struggle many people face in trying to understand who they are beyond their mistakes, labels, trauma, or past. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt overlooked, ashamed, afraid, unqualified, stuck in a wilderness season, or uncertain about their purpose. Sometimes God does not answer our insecurity by telling us how strong we are. Sometimes He answers by reminding us: “I will be with you.” Join us as we go Beyond the Pulpit for honest conversations, real stories, and Kingdom truth. Guest: David N.

  Episode #7

  Abraham’s House: Promise, Conflict, and the Generations That Followed

  Sep 4, 202648 minS1

  Send us Fan Mail In this powerful episode of Gospel Unfiltered , host Cornell Bunting takes a deeper look into the life of Abraham and the complicated events that unfolded within his household. Abraham was called by God, given an extraordinary promise, and told that through him nations would be blessed. Yet behind that promise was a family story filled with waiting, impatience, jealousy, rejection, faith, and difficult decisions. Cornell explores the relationships between Abraham, Sarah, Hagar, Ishmael, and Isaac , examining what happened when human beings tried to fulfill God’s promise on their own timeline. The episode looks at the birth of Ishmael, the arrival of Isaac, the tension over inheritance and identity, Hagar’s experience in the wilderness, and the powerful truth that God continued to see, hear, and care for those who were hurting. The conversation also addresses an important question often raised today: Can the story of Isaac and Ishmael help us understand conflict in the Middle East? Rather than reducing modern events to a simple biblical family dispute, Cornell separates biblical history from modern political history while examining why Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, covenant, ancestry, and the land remain deeply significant within Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Most importantly, this episode challenges listeners to consider the consequences of unresolved conflict, rejection, favoritism, generational pain, and inherited resentment . One of the most powerful moments in Abraham’s story comes at the end of his life, when Isaac and Ishmael come together to bury their father . Could that moment teach us something about reconciliation? Could people inherit a painful history without inheriting permanent hatred? And could God be calling this generation to become peacemakers in conflicts they did not personally create? This is more than a lesson about Abraham. It is a conversation about faith, family, identity, conflict, healing, and the responsibility we have to break destructive generational cycles . Join Cornell Bunting for Season 1, Episode 7 of Gospel Unfiltered: “Abraham’s House: Promise, Conflict, and the Generations That Followed.” Scriptures discussed include: Genesis 12, Genesis 15–17, Genesis 21, Genesis 25, Romans 4, Galatians 3, and Matthew 5:9.
