The Twice Found
Fighting for the Prodigal. Wrestling with the Truth.
Twice Found
Most people who grow up in church have a version of this story. You know the truth early. You believe it. And then somewhere along the way, you stop living like it. Not because it stopped being true. Because you stopped paying attention.
That's what happened to me. I thought I was saved at six years old because I walked an aisle one night at church. Everybody else was doing it. Then at 13, spending the night at my Sunday School teachers' house, I realized I was still lost. Dale and Linda Hartness led me to the Lord that night, and this time it was real. I meant it.
But by the time I finished high school, I'd already started drifting. Not some dramatic rebellion. More like a slow leak. I didn't wake up one morning and decide I was done with God. I just stopped making Him the center of anything. That went on for a long time.
In 2019, God brought me back. Not with a whisper. Not with a feeling. With His Word. And when I came back, I came back knowing things I didn't know the first time. I came back knowing how lost I actually was. I came back knowing that every word in that Bible is true, and that I'd wasted years ignoring it.
That's what The Twice Found is. It's not a brand. It's not a platform. It's what happened to me, and it's what I write about, talk about, and teach from. The Gospel is for “whosoever will.” That includes people who already heard it once and walked away from it.
Theology with Teeth
The hard questions your pastor doesn't have time for on Sunday morning.
I write about what the Bible says. Not what's trending, not what sounds nice, not what fits on an Instagram tile. I write about sin, grace, repentance, the cross, and what it means to actually follow Jesus in a world that's decided those things are outdated.
Some of it's heavy. Some of it starts with a Sinatra song or a plate of fried chicken and ends up in Romans. That's just how my brain works.
If you're looking for content that makes you feel good about yourself without ever asking you to change ... this probably isn't your spot. But if you want to dig into what Scripture actually says, even when it's uncomfortable, you're in the right place.

Can You Forgive Someone Who Isn't Sorry?
The Bible doesn't dodge the tension between unconditional love and conditional forgiveness. Neither should we. Here's what God's own pattern reveals about forgiving the unrepentant.
Too Dead to Hear the Gospel? (Refuting Regeneration Before Faith)
Is your prodigal child waiting to be “zapped”? Many theology textbooks say they’re a “corpse.”The reformed theologians admit they can physically hear the words you say, but claim they’re spiritually unable to respond to them. They teach that until God secretly “regenerates” them (makes them alive), the Gospel is just noise to their dead spirit.Calvinists say they must be Alive before they can Believe.But that puts the cart before the horse.If “Regeneration precedes Faith,” why does Jesus explicitly say in John 5:25 that the dead will HEAR His voice… and those who hear will live?In this episode, we take a magnifying glass to the “T” in TULIP (Total Inability). We show through Scripture that spiritual life is not the cause of faith, but the result of it. Your prodigal doesn’t need to be “zapped” to hear the Shepherd; they need to stop covering their ears.The Gospel is the power of God. It doesn’t need a head start.We cover:The Sequence Error: Why “Life before Faith” is functionally impossible.The Lazarus Fallacy: Why the tomb isn’t a proof-text for Calvinism.The Mother’s Hope: Why God is drawing them right now, and the choice is truly theirs.Stop waiting for a zap. Start praying for surrender.Listen to the full, uncut teaching on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/JDavidWyatt
