When we decide to follow God, it’s super important that we begin to foster a disgust of sin. But sometimes it’s easier to be disgusted at others’ sins rather than our own, and that causes us to not take our own sins seriously. That’s why Victor and I sat down to talk about getting real in our fight against sin, and not giving ourselves a pass when we fall to temptation. In this episode you’ll learn:  - Why we can’t just ignore our own sins.  - How treating confession as a “car wash” really hurts our relationship with God.  - What we should do to foster repentance in our lives.  - And more!

Have you ever felt like you’ve "made it" as a Christian? Like you’ve done the work and that you’re all good?

In this episode you’ll learn: - Why you’re never finished doing the work of following Jesus. - Why complacency will kill your faith. - What to do to fight feeling like you’ve got it “figured out.” - And more!

One of the things we, as guys, hate to talk about is past wounds. But we all carry pain from our past, and if we don’t deal with it we’re going to hurt other people. Victor and I talked this week about some of the wounds I have in my own life, and what I’m doing to heal from them.

We all have sins we struggle with, and most of us have addictions we just can’t seem to get rid of. Lent can be a good time to cleanse our lives, but we first need to realize that we are slaves to these sins. And when you’re a slave to something, it’s really hard to get away from it. That’s why Victor and I decided to talk this week about dealing with the fact that we often have the heart of a slave towards our own sin.

Sometimes it can feel like we just need to get through Lent as easily as we can. But if we succumb to the temptation to take the easy route, we are losing an opportunity to become a better man and a better Christian. That’s why Victor and I sat down to talk about how to make this Lent really worth your time and sacrifice by finding the “one thing” that is most harmful to your relationship with the Lord. Once you know what is standing between you and God, you can get rid of it. That’s what Lent is for. In this episode you’ll learn: - What Lent is really about, and why we give things up. - Why we need to suffer during Lent. - How to pick something that’s really going to make you a better man. - How Jesus helps us in our sufferings. - And more!

Have you ever found yourself in a situation in life where you just don’t know where to go next? I’ve found myself in that situation again and again since I decided to follow the Lord, and the Bible shows us that it’s a constant experience for those who choose to do God’s will. That’s why Victor and I decided to talk about how to deal with uncertainty, and the reasons God allows it. In this episode, we'll talk about:  - What Scripture teaches us about dealing with uncertainty.  - How to keep from letting uncertainty rule our lives through fear.  - What to do when it feels like you’re walking in the dark.  - Why you shouldn’t grasp for control when you feel lost.  - And more!

It isn’t a surprise to anyone that life comes with a lot of challenges. In fact, there are a lot of reasons men feel tempted to give up hope, whether it’s struggling with habitual sin, difficulty in their marriage, or financial problems. That’s why I invited Deacon Jeff into the studio this week to talk about hope! In this episode, you’ll learn:  - How to put your hope in Jesus Christ rather than in other things like money or security.  - How to LIVE a life of hope in Jesus Christ, instead of just saying you have hope in Him.  - How to fight despair when troubles come your way.  - How hope can only come when you are also living with faith and love.  - And more!
