A podcast for the ones who wandered.
And wonder—if the Shepherd remembers their name.
Hosted by Paul McKee, unEXPECTED Lost Sheep speaks to pastors and Christian leaders who’ve found themselves fallen, burned out, or isolated—yet still called. (Irrevocable.)
Sometimes sermons. Sometimes conversations.
Always from the battlefield.
Raw stories. Real Experience.
Not a church. Just a voice.
Bringing wanderers back to Jesus.
Season Two begins with a moment of awe.
A familiar song. A new perspective. A grandfather holding his grandchildren and suddenly realizing something deeper about the Incarnation.
In this episode, Paul reflects on the song “Mary, Did You Know?” — not as Scripture, but as a set of questions that open the heart. What must it have been like for Mary to hold the Son of God as a newborn child? Did she grasp the magnitude of who He was? Did it all truly land?
Through personal story, Scripture from Luke’s Gospel, and honest confession, this episode asks a deeper question beneath them all:
What have I done with Jesus?
Not as a theological debate.
Not as church language.
But as a matter of awe, surrender, and relationship.
This episode marks the beginning of Season Two — a season centered on one honest, searching question:
How are you and Jesus?
If you’ve ever believed the words but struggled to feel the weight of them…
if Jesus has felt more like words on a page than a living Savior…
you’re not alone.
This is an invitation — not to have all the answers — but to stop, look, and marvel again.
You can place this at the bottom of the description or read it briefly at the end of the episode.

The Least of These — What Did I Do with What He Gave Me?
The Least of These — What Did I Do with What He Gave Me?
In this episode, Paul continues his journey through Matthew 25 and wrestles honestly with one of the most sobering questions Jesus points us to: What have you done for the least of these?
From the parable of the talents to the sheep and the goats, Paul walks through how responsibility, mercy, and everyday love reveal the truth of our faith.
With Greek word studies, Wesleyan-Holiness insight, and the story of a man named Edward who changed everything, this episode invites you to ask the question that won’t let Paul go:
Am I living a life that looks like someone who actually knows Jesus?

If I Claim Jesus, Why Don’t I Look More Like Him?
In this episode, I open up about a question that’s been unsettling me lately: am I truly following Jesus, or just calling myself a Christian?
With so many public failures in the Church—and my own history of stumbling—I’ve been forced to wrestle with Scripture’s harder questions:
What have I done with what God entrusted to me?
What have I done for the least of these?
And ultimately… what have I done with His Son?
This isn’t a theological treatise; it’s a raw, personal conversation about abiding, obedience, and the life that actually reflects Christ.

Part 2: Sheep, Wolves, and the Good Shepherd
What happens when we stop listening to the Good Shepherd? This is part 2 of a series about why followers of Jesus are called sheep in the Bible.

Sheep, Wolves, and the Good Shepherd
Why does AndenMinistries.org feature so many sheep? In this episode, I share the story behind the art, the heart, and the message of the sheep. From funny videos of sheep jumping into ditches to the powerful parables of Jesus, we’ll explore why Scripture so often compares us to sheep and how that image points us to the Good Shepherd. Together we’ll look at passages in John 10, Luke 15, Romans 8, and more—reminders that though we wander, God’s love is relentless. If you’ve ever felt lost, stuck, or far from God, this conversation is for you. Because grace doesn’t just rescue—it restores.

I Was Mostly Honest
In Episode Two, Paul reflects on how his ministry unraveled and why he walked away. Along the way, he reveals the truth about the affair, the silence of old friendships, and what “mostly honest” really means. From bacon cheese fries at Eskimo Joe’s to a phone call from Eli, this is a story of confession, judgment, and the long road back to grace.

Headlines, Hurt, and Hope
Headlines keep breaking. Some are wolves in sheep’s clothing. Some are just sheep who wandered too far. This first episode sets the table for the unExpected [lost] Sheep—why it exists, who it’s for, and why I won’t pretend I haven’t been part of the wreckage. We’ll walk through Jesus’ warning (Matthew 7), the path of sin (James 1:13–15), and the hope that the Shepherd still comes looking.
If you’ve ever felt done, disqualified, or defensive… pull up a chair. This isn’t a PR tour. It’s an invitation back.
Scripture: Matthew 7:15–20; James 1:13–15; Luke 15:1–7.
