Pastor Michael Foster is a man’s man in a church that’s been defined by women for decades.

He’s been blazing a white streak through the Internet, with a podcast that's exploding in popularity as his message lands with men looking for a preacher who connects with their gut, and not just the head or heart.

You can hear it in his voice: clear, direct, unapologetic. He looks you in the eye and invites you into the arena with him to do battle with him against the ideas about Jesus Christ, the Bible, and Christians that have polluted these sacred waters for centuries, especially in Protestantism.

As you might imagine, pastors like him are rare. But as you'll hear Michael wasn't born or raised a Godly man. God did however, raise him up, to make part of the team, just in time for a very special moment in the history of the world.

In our conversation we discussed:

• How he went from being an atheist and a near-high school dropout to a Christian and a pastor

I've been looking forward to this episode for months. I was baptized in September, and as yet I haven't found anything in the religion that conflicts with authentic, traditional masculinity.

But I can't make the case as well as a man who's lived, breathed, and preached it.

I think this might be testimony you've been waiting for. And know that where Michael comes from, this is just the beginning.
