Ep 04
From Child to Loss in 3 Weeks.
"When he got diagnosed, we got pregnant." Three weeks was all that separated the day Ruslan buried his older brother and the day he held his newborn son — one gave him purpose, the other gave him pain, and instead of pulling him away from God they pulled him in. Youngest of six, no high school, no rock bottom, one girl since he was fifteen: a slower-burn testimony about grief that draws you closer, faith you'll never prove, and what it means to be an anchor instead of a sailboat.

Ep 03
Founder Testimonies.
The two men who started madenew finally tell you where they came from: a two-year-old already feeding himself while his father disappeared into the garage, and a boy frozen in a Soviet preschool who stayed frozen for thirty years — into a church he resented, into the bottle, into panic attacks every night. Two completely different childhoods, and the same way out.

Ep 02
The Devil Spoke to Me.
The devil spoke to him out loud — alone behind the bar, ready to end his life, a voice told him to stay away from the woman walking down the stairs. She's his wife now. Brian's story of the war that started the moment he didn't obey: a baptism that brought a room to tears, a loss no parent should carry, and the voice that finally fell silent.

The Founding Story.
madenew's first episode, and the story behind the impossible 3-year goal we set: 100 missions supported, 100,000 people brought to Christ, and $10,000,000 given to charity. Why we picked numbers so large that, if they actually came true, the only honest explanation would be God.
