Ever wondered what it was like to be at the heart of the Jesus Movement on the West Coast? Join us on the Brave Men Podcast as we sit down with Philip Wagner, a devoted minister and founder, with his wife Holly, of Oasis Church in Hollywood. This is what happened during the vibrant 1970s Christian revival as hundreds of thousands came to Christ and defined a generation. From his collaboration with Maranatha Music to his leadership at the Vineyard Church under Ken Gullickson and Lonnie Frisbee, Philip offers an insider's perspective on the miracles, music, and spiritual awakenings that defined an era.
You will be encouraged as our conversation explores the growth and challenges of Oasis Church - working to reach a major city with the power of authenticity, love, and acceptance. We probe into Philip and Holly's battle with cancer, their commitment to emotional health in leadership, and the dangers of comparison. This episode is a testament to faith, perseverance, community and the power of God. Don't miss this inspiring and hope-filled journey.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
