The Foundational Requirement for Kingdom Living

Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount is a picture of humanity the way God designed it to be. Jesus begins this message with a portrait of eight inner attitudes that portray the attitudes that reign in our hearts when he sets us free from slavery to sin. The first is being poor in spirit. It is the key to receiving kingdom blessing throughout all of life, not just the requirement for salvation. The great paradox is that those who recognize their spiritual poverty are those who become spiritually rich. How does this work in the everyday life of believers?  That is what this episode examines.

Without Understanding Christ's Kingdom, You Can't Understand Your Mission

Christmas celebrates the coming of Jesus to establish his Messianic Kingdom. The nature of that kingdom was not understood in his day, and it is often not understood by Christians in our day.  Yet, Jesus told us that the top priority of our lives is to be seeking his kingdom. This episode explains the nature of that kingdom, so we can seek it!

Our Mission Matters Because of Who Is Sending Us

When we ponder who our mission is FOR , it energizes us. Christ is the one who personally calls our name with a mission for us as our creator, designer, master, king, and redeemer. We further saw that our mission is FOR Christ, in that HE is the one who is loved, pleased, honored, and glorified when we are faithful to the mission he gave us.Click here for a link to Gary's most popular book, Got Your Back: Helping Men Forge the Brotherhood Connections They Need  and here for the link to Gary's Website.

Called to Godly Manhood In a Gender-Confused Culture

This is episode #4 in a 6-part series explaining why the podcast can be so beneficial to Christian men. After the podcast launch of episode #1, Who Is This Podcast For?, we began to look at each word in the podcast title. We saw that men are made for MISSION. Then last week we looked at the importance of Staying FOCUSED on that mission. This episode calls Christian men to consider two important reasons we need to show the world, how Christ can empower us to be Christ-like MEN, and then lays out 4 characteristics of manhood as God designed it to be. In a culture in which the #MeToo movement has identified the prevalence of toxic masculinity (self-centered and abusive) we have an unprecedented opportunity to take the message to our culture that Christ is the only one who can fix broken, selfish manhood.

MFMfC Launch: Who is this Podcast For?

This episode explains that Mission Focused Men for Christ is for Christian men who don’t want to fail at the mission assigned to them by their Lord and realize that it is hard to succeed in a mission when you have only a vague, fuzzy picture of what that mission is, and aren’t really thinking much about that mission during the week. This episode observes that when you summarize the biblical teaching about the mission of Christ-followers, it falls into three categories. This episode gives a clear picture of each of these three mission objectives. It then explains that the podcast is built on four pillars of commitment that undergird the podcast: BEING biblical, insightful, energizing, and bite-sized.Download Mission Focused Men for Christ into your podcast app—and don’t forget to tell other Christian men about this short, free, weekly, practical encouragement to stay focused on their mission for Christ!
