Join us on this episode of the Stand Up Dude Podcast as we sit down with Brock Gill, a former world-renowned illusionist turned motorcycle missionary. Brock shares his incredible journey of full surrender to God’s calling, from performing magic tricks, illusions, and stunts on global stages to riding motorcycles across the country and around the world to spread the Gospel.
In this powerful conversation, Brock opens up about:
- How he transitioned from a 26-year career as an illusionist to a life of adventure and ministry on two wheels.
- The moment God whispered to him during a cross-country motorcycle ride, leading him to start Moto Mission, a ministry that combines his love for motorcycles with evangelism.
- The challenges of leaving behind a successful career and stepping into the unknown, trusting God’s plan even when it didn’t make sense.
- His recent mission to Ukraine, where he rode motorcycles, shared the Gospel, and even gave away a bike to a man who had been praying for one.
- The importance of hearing God’s voice and how to discern His direction in your life, even when it feels risky or unconventional.
- Brock also teases his upcoming book, "The Adventurist: Full Surrender, All Adventure", where he dives deeper into his story and the lessons he’s learned about faith, surrender, and living a life of purpose.
Whether you’re a believer, a seeker, or just someone who loves a good adventure story, this episode will inspire you to tune in to God’s voice and take bold steps of faith.
Key Takeaways:
- Full Surrender: Brock’s story is a testament to what happens when you fully surrender to God’s plan, even when it means leaving behind what’s comfortable.
- Adventure in Faith: Faith isn’t just about belief—it’s about stepping into the unknown and trusting God to lead the way.
- Hearing God’s Voice: Learn how to discern God’s voice through scripture, community, and the opportunities He places in your path.

28 JAN 2025 · Hey there, fellow Stand Up Dudes! In this eye-opening episode of the Stand Up Dude Podcast, your hosts, Tim Bisagno and Stewart White, dive deep into a topic that's been lurking in the shadows for far too long: the mental health crisis among men, which we boldly call the "silent epidemic."
Join us as we unravel the intense pressures men face due to societal expectations around masculinity. Together, we'll challenge these norms and stress the vital importance of vulnerability and connection. We believe it's time for us, as men, to break free from the chains of silence and start expressing our feelings and seeking the help we deserve.
We'll journey through stories of biblical figures like King David, showing us that acknowledging our struggles is not a sign of weakness but a true testament to our strength. Our mission in this episode is to shatter the silence surrounding men's mental health issues and inspire an open dialogue and unwavering support among us all.
Join us and in this episode and be part of this crucial conversation. Let's stand up together and make a difference!
