Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret)
Colonel Richard "Bucky" Mendelow (Ret) is the host of the Moment of Truth podcast, a short, hard-hitting message that delivers a direct, Biblical challenge each week. An excerpt from his long-form radio show, Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow, the podcast is part of the Courageous Christianity nonprofit, which equips Christian men to live boldly at the intersection of faith and the secular world.
A retired Marine Corps Colonel, combat veteran, and airline pilot, Mendelow brings real-world experience and Biblical conviction to all he does. He flew combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, served for five decades, and was awarded the Bronze Star, Air Medal, and more.
After witnessing America’s cultural decline, he founded Courageous Christianity to help men stand firm in faith and lead with courage.
He and his wife Christy—his wingman in life and ministry—live in Texas with their German Shepherd Ruger.
