Send us a textOn today's PoM podcast we going to talk about how difficult it can be for men to get over the hurdle of friendship. For many men the time we reach our 40s or 50s, our world is usually full of work, family, church, obligations etc, but our soul can still feel empty when it comes to real brotherhood. Today we are going to give a roadmap for how a Christian man can begin to build genuine friendships at this stage of life.Support The Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/110664/subscribeRegister for our next session of Tribe: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviiBuild your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderSupport the show

Send us a textOn today’s PoM podcast I sat down and spoke with Jon Seidl author of “Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic: A Candid Conversation on Drinking, Addiction, and How to Break Free.”In Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic, Jonathon M. Seidl vividly tells his own story of disordered drinking. Not only does he address the roots of addiction, trauma, and the often-overlooked reality that Christians aren't immune to sin struggles, he also reframes the term alcoholic and shares the practical yet spiritual four-step process he used to break free—a process readers will find helpful for working through many of life's struggles. To learn more visit: https://www.jonseidl.com/confessions-of-a-christian-alcoholic-book Support The Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/110664/subscribe Register for our next session of Tribe: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xvii  Build your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builder This podcast is sponsored by Dark Water Woodwork.

Send us a textOn today's Out In The Garage podcast I am going to repond to a question I received recently about discerning the call to full-time ministry. When it comes to ministry there is vocational ministry and then there is the ministry of every believer wherever they are planted. We are going to attempt to address both of those to give us a better idea of God's plan and purpose in all seasons of life. Support The Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/110664/subscribeRegister for our next session of Tribe: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviiBuild your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderSupport the show
