"Faith didn’t play a role. Faith was the foundation."

That statement from Mason Shrout really stood out to us. In a world where success often gets the spotlight, it was refreshing to hear a young man talk about what was truly at the center of it all. Mason became Preble County’s all-time leading scorer, an Ohio Mr. Basketball finalist, and one of the most recognized athletes to come out of our area. But behind the awards, records, and attention was something much deeper, a foundation built on faith, family, and values. Jessica McIntosh Shrout

As Mason shares in Episode 108, success doesn't happen by accident. It takes sacrifice, discipline, and people around you who push you to become your best. His parents challenged him to work hard, stay focused, and keep his priorities in order. Like many high-level athletes, he faced pressure, expectations, and challenges that most people never see. Through it all, faith wasn't something he leaned on occasionally, it was the foundation his family built everything upon.

Don't miss this powerful conversation releasing this Friday on BeTempered. It's about much more than basketball. It's about character, purpose, perseverance, and what truly matters when the lights get brighter.

Preble County's all-time leading scorer. Former Ohio Mr. Basketball finalist. Small-town kid with a big-time story.

This week, we sit down with Mason Shrout to talk about much more than basketball. From growing up in Camden, Ohio and starring at Preble Shawnee, to the discipline, sacrifices, pressure, and mindset required to perform at an elite level, Mason shares the journey behind the success.

We also dive into the impact of family and the role his parents played in encouraging him to work hard, stay focused, and continually develop his game. This is a great conversation about work ethic, staying grounded, small-town values, and who you become when the spotlight fades and life moves beyond the scoreboard.

🚶‍♂️ This Saturday • June 6th • 9:00 AM 🚶‍♀️

It's hard to believe we're already heading into our 6th BeTempered Gratitude Walk.

A gratitude walk is intentional movement with an intentional mindset. We walk without music or distractions and focus on mentally listing things we're grateful for, past, present, and future.

It's about resetting perspective, grounding yourself, and recognizing blessings even through life's challenges.

We've walked through cold temperatures, snow, rain, and sunshine. More importantly, we've built a community of people committed to gratitude and growth.

Everyone is welcome. No sign-up needed. Just show up and walk with purpose.

As we get older, our perspective begins to change. The things we once chased, titles, possessions, money, status, start to lose their importance. What remains are the people who walked through life with us.

In this short clip from Episode 107, Dave shares a powerful reminder: at the end of the day, relationships are what truly matter. The memories we create, the lives we impact, and the people we love will outlast everything else. It's a simple lesson, but one that becomes clearer with every passing year.

Take a moment today to reach out to someone you care about. Life moves fast, but relationships are the legacy we leave behind. ❤️

What would you do if your fighter jet suddenly stopped responding at 300 miles per hour? David Wheeler doesn’t have to imagine it... he lived it.

In this powerful episode, David shares the incredible story of surviving an F-100 Super Sabre crash, the overwhelming peace he experienced as the aircraft went down, and how that moment changed the course of his life forever.

From military aviation, starting an architectural firm, to prison ministry, forgiveness, faith, and finding purpose after trauma, this conversation is packed with wisdom and perspective.

David’s story is a remarkable reminder that sometimes our greatest trials become the foundation for our greatest purpose.

🔥Coming this Friday on BeTempered 🔥

David Wheeler shares a powerful perspective on jail and prison ministry, and how God completely changed his heart on the subject. Like many people, David once viewed inmates only through the lens of punishment. But through ministry, conversations, and real relationships, his perspective began to shift.

He realized the people behind those walls are still human beings with real stories, real pain, and real struggles. One of those people was former BeTempered guest Donald Reed. Through jail ministry, David met Donald and helped him along the way.

This episode is a powerful reminder that grace, redemption, and purpose can reach people anywhere. Some stories will challenge the way you see others… and this is definitely one of them.

🔥Tomorrow at 10:00AM a Patreon Live Event🔥

🔗 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/BeTempered

BeTempered sits down with Marine veteran Caleb Hutcheson for an incredible conversation about service, faith, brotherhood, and how one unexpected meeting changed the course of his life.

Caleb grew up in Arkansas and served in the United States Marines, where he drove the Buffalo, a heavily armored military vehicle designed to help detect and clear routes threatened by IEDs during war. The stories he shares about that responsibility, the pressure, and the reality of service are powerful.

But this episode goes far beyond the military. A chance meeting at pastor school led Caleb to former BeTempered guest Justin Wiegand… and somehow that journey eventually brought him all the way to Lewisburg, Ohio. The connection is wild, and the conversation is even better.

This Patreon Live is part of our paid Patreon community, but don’t worry if you’re not subscribed yet, the full episode releases publicly on June 19th.
