What does intergenerational, masculine, discipleship look like? EP 386

Scott Haima’s life work has been intergenerational, masculine, discipleship.  This passion was developed as early as age 10 when his Dad started a Royal Rangers Outpost in Trenton, Michigan.  Scott was very active in this until 1999, when he became active in Christian Service Brigade (CSB). Professionally Scott took a few paths before full-time ministry.  He served in the United States Air Force.  A second path led to finance positions at Price Waterhouse-Coopers, Buffalo Sabres, and Merchants Insurance Group. In 1999, a third path developed.  He was asked to serve on the Board of Directors for CSB Ministries in 2009 then felt the call to accept the full-time position of Regional in 2010.  In 2015 Scott was selected as President of CSB Ministries. Scott has three sons and one daughter.  Still active at his local church, speaks regularly at men’s breakfasts, events, and Iron Sharpens Iron men’s conferences, and is working on becoming an Adirondack 46er.  It is his fervent prayer to see godly men take responsibility to serve, lead, and disciple each generation. https://www.facebook.com/CSBMinistries Boots on the Ground Challenge you to get into an accountability group of 2-5 other guys.

What to do when a mountain lion attacks EP 384

Josh Cowger is a husband, father, hunter, and the owner of Cowger Electric, a small electrical shop based in Newberg Oregon.  He has 2 sons ages 8 and 10.  His hobbies include hunting, Brazilian jiujitsu, coaching youth sports, and photography. He has been a self-employed for 8 years and an electrician for 16. Josh’s wife would describe him as someone who doesn’t need another hobby, but he wouldn’t always describe himself as someone who always had hobbies. Things changed for Josh in 2015, he had testicular cancer, and that gave him a perspective change. Josh was 35, he had a list of things that were interests, things that he always said he would do when he got in better shape, and had more time. Then Josh realized that he had been saying the same thing since he was 24. So, he made a change.  In this episode Josh shares about the time a cougar changed his life.  www.meninthearena.org Men in the Arena Books and Swag Support the Podcast Contact us.

Going from bondage to freedom w/Rick Aldred EP 382

Rick Aldred was born in Springfield, MO, and he graduated from Missouri State University. In 2010, he received his commission as a 2LT in the US Army. Rick spent the next 8 years on active duty, deploying to Iraq, Afghanistan, as well as numerous training exercises in Europe. During his time in Europe, Rick began a series of emotional and physical affairs with multiple women. He eventually confessed his sin to his wife in October of 2016, 1 month after their first “miracle” baby was born. Rick was given the ultimatum to leave the military or his wife was going to leave.  This began a long road of recovery and reconciliation, and, through it all, Rick discovered a desire to help others through his own brokenness. He will graduate from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in May of 2021 with his M.A. in Counseling.  Boots on the Ground     Give your wife full access to your devices.
