Asheville Gideons

In this unique Community Spotlight episode recorded live at Atlanta Bread Company in Asheville, Braxton chats with Bob Machen of the Asheville Gideons. Their convo dives into how Bob and fellow Gideons are sharing the gospel in bold but gentle ways — literally on the sidewalks outside graduation ceremonies and through everyday encounters.

Bob shares powerful moments from recent outreaches, like giving out over 1,600 New Testaments during Asheville-area graduations and having spontaneous prayer sessions with students and families — many of whom were surprisingly open and hungry for deeper connection.

This weekly feature highlights the work people are doing in The Light FM’s listening area. You’ll hear interesting and lively conversations with community difference makers.
