| 692. 2 Timothy 1:8-9 - Spiritual Kick Off | 01 Jun 2026 | 00:27:43 | |
Comfort is a great salesman and a terrible king. When we build our lives around avoiding pain, chasing prestige, and protecting a “good” reputation, we can end up successful on paper and hollow on the inside. Today we sit with 2 Timothy 1:8-9 and let Paul’s words cut through the noise: don’t be ashamed, don’t back down, and be willing to join the struggle that comes with a holy calling.

| 691. Member Spotlight: Don Yost | 29 May 2026 | 00:32:21 | |
A lot of men can carry a strong exterior while quietly falling apart inside. We talk with Don Yost, an Army veteran whose story cuts through the noise: combat deployments, PTSD and traumatic brain injury, seasons of addiction and anger, broken relationships, and the kind of darkness that led to five suicide attempts. And yet, by God’s grace, he’s still here and he’s building a different life. We are excited to be speaking at Mountain Life Church in Park City Utah on June 20th.

| 682. Member Spotlight: Joseph Hart | 08 May 2026 | 00:56:03 | |
Joseph’s story starts with something most men never expect to say out loud: “I grew up in a cult.” What follows is an honest, gritty walk through the real-life fallout of distorted faith, broken family patterns, emotional shutdown, and the kind of pride that says, I’ll handle it myself. If you’ve ever felt disconnected at home, stuck in secrecy, or unsure how to lead as a Christian man, you’re going to feel seen here.

What happens when Christian men focus intentionally on building strength in their health, finances, and relationships? Life-changing transformation that ripples through every area of leadership. Standing firm in truth serves as our foundation, as Ephesians 6:14 reminds us to belt our waist with truth and put on the breastplate of righteousness. From this solid ground, we explore practical ways to strengthen the three pillars of effective Christian leadership.

What keeps you trapped in patterns that don't serve you? Roy Wooten, Executive Director of The Crucible Project, reveals the startling reality facing modern Christian men: a crisis of isolation where three out of five men can't name five friends, and one in five can't name a single friend. This isolation creates the perfect breeding ground for struggles with identity, purpose, and destructive behaviors.

Marriage is warfare. The enemy wants nothing more than to destroy what God has joined together, and far too many Christian men find themselves unprepared for the battle. Drawing from personal experience, including the pain of divorce and the journey of rebuilding, this episode offers hard-won wisdom for men who are ready to fight for their marriages God's way. We explore the fundamental truth that love is a choice—not merely an emotion—requiring daily commitment regardless of circumstances.

| 681. When Kingdom Light Shines With Mark Ellis | 06 May 2026 | 00:57:42 | |
One prayer under a desk. One atheist’s last-ditch cry for help. One astronaut 238,000 miles from home sensing Jesus so vividly he turns around to look. These aren’t stories meant to entertain you for an hour. They’re a wake-up call for men who say they believe the gospel is power, yet still find themselves hesitant, quiet, or spiritually passive when it counts. I’m joined by journalist Mark Ellis, founder of GodReports.com and author of When Kingdom Light Shines, a collection of faith stories and Christian testimonies gathered over decades. Mark shares his own journey from skepticism to conviction, and why the resurrection evidence forced a decision. We are excited to be speaking at Mountain Life Church in Park City Utah on June 20th.

Every Christian man knows the tension—walking in a broken world while battling spiritual enemies that seek to destroy what God has called good. The war against lust isn't fought with flesh and blood weapons but with spiritual ones that God has already equipped us with. Pornography is a silent destroyer that thrives in darkness. It begins subtly—a glance becomes a lingering look, a momentary thought grows unchecked, and before we realize it, we're trapped in cycles of guilt, shame, and isolation. The real danger isn't just the act itself but how it warps our perception of love, sex, and relationships while driving us away from the very community we need for healing.

Ever felt like you're stuck in life's waiting room while single? This episode flips that narrative completely on its head. We explore the Apostle Paul's counter-cultural message that being single isn't a burden—it's a strategic advantage. While our relationship-obsessed culture makes singles feel incomplete or "on hold," Scripture presents a radically different perspective: singleness as a purposeful season of focused availability for God's kingdom work.

Romans 1:16 is not a soft verse. It’s a line in the sand, and it confronts a problem I see everywhere in Christian men: spiritual passivity. We’ve learned how to agree with the gospel while staying quiet, staying comfortable, and acting like faith is optional. “I am not ashamed of the gospel” calls us out of that posture and into conviction, not to be loud or abrasive, but to be loyal to Christ when it actually costs something.

What does it mean to be truly pro-life? In this soul-stirring episode, we explore the crucial distinction between being merely "pro-life" and embracing a "pro-abundant life" stance that actively engages with those who are vulnerable in our communities. The dangerous idea floating around Christian circles today is that speaking truth or voting occasionally is sufficient. But James challenges us to a faith that gets its hands dirty—caring for orphans and widows while remaining unpolluted by the world's self-centered values. This isn't about tweeting the right things or winning theological arguments; it's about showing up consistently for those in need.

What if the secret to a thriving marriage isn't about finding the right person, but embracing the right perspective? At the heart of God's design lies a critical distinction that transforms relationships: marriage as a covenant, not a contract. While our culture promotes conditional arrangements where we stay committed only as long as our needs are met, God established something far more profound. A covenant says "no matter what, I'm in" – mirroring God's own faithful, sacrificial, and enduring love for us that never wavers based on our performance.

Words have power—perhaps more than we realize. Speaking with Will Parker Anderson, Senior Editor at Penguin Random House's Christian division, we dive into the transformative potential of putting pen to paper as believers. Will shares how his journey from pastoral ministry to publishing has revealed a profound truth: writing isn't just for "professional authors." The most impactful written words in his life weren't bestsellers but personal notes—his mother's scrawled hospital bedside message and an encouraging letter from an elderly church member that still resonates decades later.

What if everything you've learned about leadership is backward? While the world promotes leadership as gaining more influence, followers, and status, Jesus offers a completely different path - emptying yourself. This counterintuitive approach doesn't mean becoming passive or mediocre. Rather, it's about intentionally pouring out your gifts, time, talents, and resources for others without expecting anything in return.

| 678. Understanding The Gospel Of John With Chris Scotti | 29 Apr 2026 | 00:50:51 | |
A lot of us say we’re fine, but Scripture tells a different story: we needed rescuing, and God actually did it. We start with Colossians 1:13–14 and sit with the weight of those words, rescued from the authority of darkness and transferred into the kingdom of Jesus. Then I’m joined by Chris Scotti, vice president and publisher at 316 Publishing, whose story is a straight shot to the heart of Christian discipleship: the Bible isn’t meant to stay closed, and the Gospel of John can change a life when someone finally reads it for themselves.

Caught between impossible circumstances and crushing responsibility, the Israelites faced a moment that would define their journey. Their response? Panic, blame, and even longing for the slavery they'd just escaped. Sound familiar?
