A PODCAST FOR MEN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART
LISTEN NOW
Entitlement
Entitlement is a relationship killer. Whether it’s your relationship with God, your wife, your kids, cool-workers, church family, etc. Let’s talk about what triggers entitlement, what it sounds like, what God’s Word says, and let’s combat this spiritual disease that the Devil wants to infect us with.
Escapism vs. Freedom
Every day men are escaping and checking out by one method or another. Porn, drugs, alcohol, social media, fantasy sports and more are what men are using to escape. But the freedom starts with Christ, not sin. So could it be that escapism is actually leading us to more slavery? Absolutely!
Emotional Intelligence
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is underrated and misunderstood in the community of masculinity. The Devil wants men to continue to be emotionally foolish so he can win battles in this revolutionary war of confusion, deceit, and division. We must liberate masculinity by gaining EQ.
Knowing vs. Executing
It’s one thing to know God’s Word. But executing is everything! How well do you execute loving God, your neighbor, etc?
Restoring Your Confidence
Insecurities arise daily and cripple us. Society makes it hard to know how a man is supposed to behave. Too much confidence and we’re narcissistic. Not enough confidence and we’re cowards. We seek validation in our insecurities. We get paralyzed by what ifs. But what what does Jesus say. What are God’s promises to us? We will dive into that so that we can find our source of confidence!
Settling for Mediocrity
As men, we sometimes struggle with settling. That act of settling can dangerously be a way of embracing mediocrity. This episode will help you identify mediocrity, battle it, and overcome it alongside Jesus. Godly men cannot settle for mediocrity.
Wrestling with God
Masculinity is most toxic when we men wrestle with God. We try to be the alpha and challenge his authority. Sometimes we don't even realize we're wrestling God. So how do we learn to recognize when we're about to step into the ring with God? Listen to today's episode to make sure your masculinity is God honoring.
Masculinity at a Sustainable Pace
Are you a destination minded person, or do you enjoy the walk more than the destination? Sometimes we as men become so hyper-focused on the destination or the goal that it cost's us relationships, experiences, enjoyment, and more. In this episode we will identify how to know if you're more walk journey driven, or destination driven?
Pride- Your Ego is Not your Amigo
Pride gets the best of us all. However, we can look to God's Word for hope, indicators, and wisdom as we navigate the waters of pride and humility. Pride is a relationship killer that hinders our relationship with ourself, God, and those we love. Let's define pride, identify the root of pride, the fruit of pride, and discuss how to resist pride and step into humility with Jesus.
Help! Man is not good alone.
Men struggle asking for and receiving help. "I got it." or "I'm good." These are common responses from men when asked if they need or would like help. But these responses are killing us and resemble toxic masculinity. In our fight to bring masculinity back, we need to understand that men were designed to need help according to Genesis 2. Listen to this episode for encouragement from Marriage Coach Tim Hilley in this segment on men and help.
How to Love Like Christ
While the Cross and the Resurrection are the greatest ways Jesus showed His love for us, He had 33 years on this Earth demonstrating how to love. Yet when I ask husbands how Christ loved the church, they all say He died for the church. Such a weak, surface level, male answer. 33 years on this Earth loving us, but it all started with Jesus understanding, appreciating, and accepting His purpose according to the Father's will. Do you know your purpose? Let's dive in and discuss it further so we can learn to love like Christ.
