Living Mission First Podcast Launches January 29, 2026

We are honored to announce the launch of the Living Mission First Podcast, premiering on January 29, 2026.

Real Stories of Real Hope for First Responders.

For more than two years, we’ve talked about the need for a podcast like this. Every day, first responders run toward chaos, tragedy, and darkness, often carrying burdens few people ever see. They need hope. They need encouragement. They need examples to follow.

Behind the sirens, long shifts, and unseen battles, God is at work in powerful and unexpected ways.

The Living Mission First Podcast exists to share those stories. Each episode features first responders who are living Mission First for Christ, men and women who see their badge, uniform, and calling not just as a job, but as a mission field. These are honest conversations about courage, faith, and resilience. Stories of hope found in hard places. Faith lived out in real time. Christ moving in the most unlikely moments.

Whether you serve on the front lines, support someone who does, or simply need encouragement, our prayer is that this podcast reminds you that you are not alone, and that God is still writing stories of redemption, even in the darkest places.

This is a place where real stories meet real hope.

Join us beginning January 29, 2026, as we launch the Living Mission First Podcast. Available everywhere you listen to podcasts.

If this or any other story stirred something in you, you’re not alone. If you need prayer, support, or someone to connect with, we’re here to help you take the next step toward hope. Please reach out to us through our Contact Us page, or leave a comment below.

Jeremy Wade is the Executive Director of Mission First Alliance. He served for the Seattle Police Department for 13 years, but struggled with his identity in Christ vs his identity in the badge early in his career. After a few years on the department he fully surrendered his life to the Lord, which started an amazing journey that the Lord has been blessing along the way. While not free from challenges like the Seattle riots, and many critical incidents, Jeremy could see God’s hand in directing his paths. On the Seattle PD, Jeremy was awarded Officer of the Year, and Medal of Valor. He worked in patrol, in the training unit, as a peer support coordinator, and assisted in developing the department’s first wellness unit. He co-founded the SPD Beds for Kids Program with Ryan Gallagher, which continues on today. Jeremy also served as the executive director of the Seattle Police Chaplains Association and came alongside many other local and national first responder ministries. In 2021, Jeremy, his wife Ketryna, and four kids felt God calling them to move to Tennessee and step out in faith to do full-time ministry, supporting first responders nationwide. This led to serving as the Training & Development Coordinator for the Fellowship of Christian Peace Officers- USA until God started directing his path and opening doors to start Mission First Alliance.
