In 1955, the U.S. Army released 300,000 mosquitoes over Georgia in a real-world experiment called Operation Big Buzz.
Charlie and Sean unpack that story and another forgotten study, Project Sunshine, connecting both to Isaiah 55–58 — where God shows that fake light fades, but truth always breaks through. 💡
Sean also opens up about his son’s battle with encephalitis after a mosquito bite and how that season deepened his faith and focus on what truly matters.
🎣 In This Episode:
• The wild truth behind Operation Big Buzz & Project Sunshine
• Why “fake light” can’t last (Isaiah 55–58)
• Sean’s story of healing and perspective
• Fishing talk, laughs, and real-life faith moments

10,000 Soldiers Vanished?! | Why God Said “It’s Not Good for Man to Be Alone”
🧠 10,000 Roman soldiers vanished without a trace.
What if the mystery of the lost Roman legion wasn’t just history… but a mirror of what’s happening today?
In this week’s episode, Charlie and special guest host John Miller unpack one of history’s strangest disappearances — 10,000 elite Roman soldiers who may have marched all the way to China and never came home.
But this episode isn’t just about mystery — it’s about isolation, brotherhood, and God’s design for community.
God said, “It’s not good for man to be alone.” Yet in a world full of disconnection and distraction, so many of us are marching through life solo.
🎧 In this episode:
The unbelievable story of 10,000 vanished Roman soldiers
Why isolation is one of the enemy’s strongest weapons
What “It’s not good for man to be alone” really means
Finding brotherhood and faith in a noisy world
Coffee, chaos, and a few trust issues along the way ☕️💀

What happens when you chase something in the wrong season? 🎣 Charlie hit the Grand River for steelhead… and got completely skunked. But sometimes God lets us wait — because faith out of season is still faith in progress.
In this episode of The Casting Faith Podcast, Charlie and David break down what it means to live ready:
⚡ The man who survived 14 months lost at sea
⚡ Why Israel’s shortcut would’ve destroyed their faith
⚡ Out of season = not wasted, but preparation for the promise
⚡ Sweat-tember belt trash talk + 90s nostalgia (WWJD bracelets, Discman skips)
📖 Scripture says: “To everything there is a season…” and even in waiting, God is preparing us for what’s next.

It’s America’s birthday, and we’re lighting up more than fireworks
