What Bugle Call Are You Hearing This Summer?

A Charge Toward a Fully Alive Life

This isn’t just another summer. And this isn’t just another Sunday message.

Welcome again to the *Stanley Jones Radio School for Fully Alive Living*, where we do more than just talk—we challenge, we stir, and we hope to awaken something in your soul. On this special broadcast, I reflect on my “burning bush birthday”—a milestone that asks not how many years you’ve lived, but what kind of fire still burns within you.

This summer, I ask: What bugle call are you listening to?
Is it the mournful retreat… or the rallying call to charge?

Bugle calls were once the battlefield GPS. No fancy apps, no pings or push notifications. Just the brass voice of direction. And you know what? We’re still in a battle today—spiritually, emotionally, culturally, and yes, even professionally. And many of us are still waiting on a sound to follow. So, I offer you this: don't wait. Don’t retreat. It’s time to charge.

Stanley Jones, the man behind this radio school, taught us something we still haven’t caught up to: that the kingdom of God isn’t just a hope for the future—it’s a present reality. Not something to wait for, but something to walk in. Right here. Right now.

This episode is personal. I tell a story about my own father’s quiet courage, writing about Stanley Jones back when it wasn’t popular in his circles. I talk about my own transformation—from missionary broadcaster to business coach—and how I found that the wisdom of Stanley Jones worked not just in the pulpit, but in the boardroom.

I even share a moment with one of my Jewish clients—yes, a conservative Jew—who honored me with one of the most profound compliments I’ve ever received: “You’re one of us.” That’s the kind of bridge-building Stanley Jones practiced. That’s the kind of fully alive living we aspire to.

So I ask you—what will your “charge” look like this summer?
A new project?
A deeper prayer life?
A bold act of generosity?
A commitment to teach truth in unexpected places?

And maybe, just maybe, this summer could become what I call an S.G.E.—a Special God Event.

Key Takeaways to Remember, Recommend, and Reflect On:

- “Retreat” or “Charge”—you choose the soundtrack for your summer.

- Stanley Jones isn’t just a missionary for yesterday; he’s a mentor for today.

- Bring the Kingdom to your business, your community, your conversations.

- Truth doesn’t have to be preachy to be powerful—it can be wise, warm, and witty.

- Your scribbled-up, marked-up books might be your greatest legacy.

- Make this a “burning bush” season—where you see God in the fire, and say yes.

How You Can Respond:

Email me: I’d love to hear your “summer charge”—what are you moving toward? What’s your S.G.E.? ➤ Write me at [email protected]

Ask questions:

   - Have you ever had a bugle moment—where you felt God calling you to move?

   - How can we translate spiritual wisdom into practical business and life decisions?

Recommend us to someone younger—a person who needs to hear that faith, truth, and enterprise can work together.

Invest in the next generation. Don’t donate—invest in this mission to pass the message forward.

Final Thoughts—Make This a God Event Summer:

Don’t just go to the beach. Go to the burning bush.
Don’t just tune out—tune in to what God might be calling you to start, revive, or charge into.
Let this be the summer you don’t forget—because God showed up in some wild, unexpected way.

Until next time, may you live not just well—but fully alive.
