In this episode, we explore Jesus’ challenging call to discipleship—a call that costs us far more than comfort, convenience, or cultural approval.  we unpack what it truly means to follow Christ: denying ourselves, taking up our cross daily, and surrendering control of our lives. Discipleship is not an add-on to faith but a complete reorientation of our priorities, relationships, and ambitions. While salvation is a free gift of grace, following Jesus demands obedience, perseverance, and sometimes sacrifice. This conversation invites listeners to count the cost honestly, reject shallow faith, and embrace the deeper joy and freedom found in wholehearted devotion to Christ—even when it’s difficult.   Featuring Pastor Chris Harper 

In a culture obsessed with speed, productivity, and constant noise, Scripture invites us to pause. From the very beginning, God models rest—pausing on the seventh day not out of exhaustion, but intention. Pausing is not weakness; it is worship.   Throughout the Bible, we see that God often does His deepest work in moments of stillness. Jesus regularly withdrew to lonely places to pray. Elijah encountered God not in the wind or fire, but in a gentle whisper. Psalm 46:10 calls us to “Be still, and know that I am God,” reminding us that clarity, direction, and peace flow from slowing down before Him.   Featuring Pastor Tim Dunn https://visitgraceway.org

In this episode, we explore God’s answer to Habakkuk’s cry: “Write the vision; make it plain.” God assures the prophet that His justice will come at the appointed time—even if it seems delayed. Habakkuk 2 contrasts the pride of the wicked with the faith of the righteous, declaring that “the righteous will live by faith.” Through a series of “woes,” God exposes the emptiness of greed, violence, injustice, and idolatry, reminding us that human power always falls short. The passage ends with a call to reverent trust: the Lord reigns from His holy temple, and all the earth is invited to stand in awe before Him.   Featuring Pastor Bryan Hurlbutt At Lifeline Church West Jordan, Utah

In this episode, we examine how Christians can recognize and withstand Satan’s attacks by standing on the truth of God’s Word. Scripture teaches that spiritual battles are real, but believers are not powerless. Through deception, temptation, and discouragement, the enemy seeks to weaken faith—but God provides everything needed to stand firm.    Featuring Pastor JP Pokluda  At Harris Creek Baptist Church Waco, Texas

In today’s episode, we consider the idea of “A Christian Bucket List”—a collection of spiritual goals and milestones shaped not by the world’s standards, but by lasting values rooted in Christ. We’ll explore what it looks like to set meaningful, faith-driven goals—experiences that deepen your walk with God, serve others, and build a legacy of impact. From sharing your faith with someone new, to serving on a mission trip, to mentoring a younger man or reading the entire Bible, these aspirations are more than checklist items—they are invitations to live courageously for God’s purposes.   Featuring Pastor Josiah Jones At Keystone Church Student Gathering 2025

As Christian men, we are called to more than just living for ourselves—we are called to impact the world around us for God’s glory. But making a difference doesn’t always mean big platforms or public recognition. It starts with faithfulness in the small things: loving your family well, serving your church, living with integrity at work, and investing in your community.   Featuring Pastor Tony Johnson At the BetterMan Michigan Conference 2025

Your story matters deeply—not just to you, but to God. As Christian men called to authentic discipleship, we recognize that each of our stories is a unique part of God’s larger narrative. Understanding your story means looking back honestly at your triumphs, struggles, and turning points. It’s about seeing where God’s hand has guided, reshaped, and restored you, even in moments of uncertainty or failure.   Featuring Pastor Robby Emery At the BetterMan Michigan Conference 2025

Pastor Sonny Smith, a devoted pastor and conference speaker, shares powerful insights into the biblical call for men to protect and honor women. He discusses five critical areas of protection, including spirit, voice, and dignity, emphasizing that these responsibilities are rooted in a Christ-like model. Sonny reflects on King David's failures, illustrating how neglect can lead to serious consequences. Highlighting Jesus' compassion, he shows how true manhood involves listening, restoring dignity, and guiding women toward their divine purpose.
