What can restoring a 1978 Jeep CJ7 teach us about God? More than you might think.

What if marriage is about something much more important, more life changing, than just being happy? Recorded in front of nearly a thousand husbands and wives at Couples Camp, in southeast Ohio, Brian shares an honest teaching on realigning our thinking about marriage. When we get the focus of marriage right, everything else starts to fall into place. It’s not about feeling happy—instead, it’s about being made holy. 

There are 15 year-old men and 45 year-old boys. What separates the two isn’t age, but the five marks—five things that all men do, and all boys avoid. Recorded live in front of a packed house of athletes and their coaches, Brian shares these marks, as well as new perspectives on how they apply in the life of every man.  Have a young man in your orbit? Listen to this episode together, then use the discussion questions below to dig deeper.  The Five Marks of a Man: (1) Men have a vision. (2) Men take a minority position. (3) Men are team players. (4) Men work. (5) Men are protectors.                                       Discussion questions:  Men bring value to their teams. What teams are you a part of (sports, family, work, friends) and what value are you bringing to them? Are they better because you’re a part of the team?  Which mark do you feel strongest in?  Encourage each other: which mark do you see on display in the other person?  Which mark do you feel weakest in? What can you do about that this week? Who is someone you know that is strong in the mark you feel weakest in? What can you learn from observing them? Could you set up time with them soon to pick their brain about it?  What’s the most surprising thing you heard? Men are active. What challenge or insight from this talk can you put into action this week? Name it, then go do it. 

As one of history’s most successful Bible teachers, Beth Moore has influenced millions of people around the globe. But in recent years, after taking a hard stance against divisive politics, sexism, and racism in the church, she’s faced intense scrutiny from many of the same people who once supported her. But Beth doesn’t give up easily. In this can’t-miss conversation, she shares what she’s learned about courage, calling, and grapevines. 

With one phone call, Mark Roser’s life was flipped upside down. After spending years as missionaries in Africa, Mark and his family were back in the states, where his youngest son, Ethan, was studying to be a pastor. But when a freak accident took Ethan’s life, Mark was left seeking answers to every parent’s worst nightmare. He shares what he’s learned about loss, suffering, and God—and how to get back up again when life blindsides you.

No holiday has as many caveats as Father’s Day. Maybe appropriately so, but no man becomes a dad planning to be a failure. Men have a deep-seated desire to love their kids well, meet their needs, and teach them how to live. Jerrad Lopes started Dad Tired because he found himself in a similar boat: wanting to be a better dad, but not sure how to do it. He’s built a robust community to encourage dads to become the fathers they’ve always wanted to be. He’s a good man, speaking courage into all the aggressive dads out there. 

Money is a spiritual thing, and Rabbi Daniel Lapin has devoted much of his life to teaching others how to use it wisely. Leaning heavily on wisdom from the Jewish scriptures, Rabbi Lapin is the author of best-sellers Thou Shall Prosper and Business Secrets from the Bible, as well as popular online courses. Considered “America’s Rabbi,” he brings his no-nonsense wisdom about money, prosperity, and God to the Aggressive Life. 

Frank Blake never set his sights on the corner office, but that didn’t stop the Home Depot from calling. When Frank took over the home improvement giant, their stock-price was at an all-time low and they were being bested in every metric by their competitors. Frank turned the Big Orange around by focusing on service and people. The leadership wisdom that pours out of this living legend is second-to-none.

Marked with trademark humility and grace, Harvey’s wisdom is a gift.
