  • Big Swings Only - Why High Achievers Never Feel Successful | Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby

    Kwame Christian sits down with psychologist, marriage and family therapist, and founder of Growing Self Counseling & Coaching, Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby, and it quickly turns into two high achievers comparing notes on the hidden cost of always chasing the next win.

    Kwame opens up about skipping the celebration of his own graduations, walking away from a national competition award because it wasn't the championship, and turning his marriage into a competition his wife never signed up for. Dr. Lisa Marie explains the psychology behind it (the hedonic treadmill) and why stepping off it doesn't kill your drive. It might actually give you more of it.
    From there, they get into how social media algorithms are quietly "diagnosing" our partners, the frame game that lets Kwame win a negotiation before it starts, the networking event that sent him hiding in the bathroom five times, and how Dr. Lisa Marie turned the loss of her cousin on 9/11 into her life's work.

  • The StoryBrand Podcast - Exactly How to Write a Tagline That Grows Your Business

    Your tagline is probably the most important piece of marketing collateral you can write. And most businesses get it wrong.

     

    Most people try to imitate the style of international brands, but since they don't have the name recognition, it's a huge waste of time and money.

     

    In this episode of the StoryBrand Podcast, bestselling marketer Donald Miller share tips and real world examples to help you write a tagline that instantly communicates your value and opens the door to new customers.

     

    If you ever wonder why some marketing instantly grabs your attention while the rest gets ignored, know that it's not about luck. It's not about a bigger budget.

    The marketing that works follows just a few simple principles that make it easy to understandable, memorable, and impossible to overlook. That's why StoryBrand has a free guide.

    The Four Rules of Messaging PDF will teach you those principles and in just a few minutes you'll have a simple but powerful framework for improving every message you create from your website and emails to your ads and sales calls.

  • The Lion Within Us - Leadership for Christian Men - 746. Psalm 88:12 - Spiritual Kick Off

    Send us Fan Mail

    Forgetting God doesn’t usually look like shaking your fist at heaven. It looks like staying busy, staying entertained, and slowly going numb. We open with Psalm 88:12 and that chilling phrase “the land of forgetfulness,” then we get brutally honest about how spiritual drift works in real life for Christian men: it’s subtle, it’s quiet, and it often shows up as convenience over conviction and comfort over obedience. 

    Come see us at the I'm Just a Guy Vision Men's Summit in Raleigh, North Carolina on October 10 and at The Camp For Men in Fall River, Kansas on October 23-25. To find out more and to register visit https://thelionwithin.us/events/ 

    Most guys pretend they have it all together until life unexpectedly drops them flat on the mat. True strength begins when you swallow your pride, stop trying to walk alone, and finally admit you need backup. If this resonates you may enjoy this plan that just released on the Bible App. To dive into this 5-day plan check it out here https://thelionwithin.us/devotional/im-just-a-guy-mat/

    It’s time to stop sitting on the sidelines.

    New Book: Unleashing The Lion Within

    The enemy is relentless—doing everything possible to steal, kill, and destroy what matters most in your life. It’s time to fight back.

  • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - Studio of the Divine Artist

    Listen to Today's Devotion

    Do your days feel like a hike on an Appalachian Trail in winter? A struggle to place one foot in front of the other? If so, I urge you friend, hang on, hang on. Don’t give up. Help is here. It may not come in the manner you requested or as quickly as you desire, but it will come.

    Assume that something good is going to happen. The door of tomorrow is unlocked from the inside. Just turn the knob and step out. The divine artist isn’t finished. The earth is his studio. Every person on earth is one of his projects. Every event on earth is a part of his great mural. He is not finished. The scripture says in Philippians 1:6 (NCV), “God began doing a good work in you, and I’m sure he will continue it until it is finished when Jesus Christ comes again.” Remember friend, you are never alone.

  • Our Daily Bread Podcast | Our Daily Bread - In the Stillness

    When I was a kid and got up in the middle of the night, I often found Mom sitting in her chair in the living room. The glow of the table lamp revealed a book on her lap—her Bible. My mom had trouble sleeping because of her insomnia and chronic pain, but she made good use of her time.

  • The Lion Within Us - Leadership for Christian Men - 745. Ask An Elder With Buck Jacobs

    Send us Fan Mail

    Most men don’t need more religious noise, they need a clear path to become the leaders God intends them to be. That’s why we tried something different: a candid “Ask My Mentor” sit-down with Buck Jacobs, a man who’s spent decades spotting what’s healthy and unhealthy inside organizations and who brings that same clarity to the modern church.

    Come see us at Man Camp in Wanship, Utah on September 25-27, at the I'm Just a Guy Vision Men's Summit in Raleigh, North Carolina on October 10 and at The Camp For Men in Fall River, Kansas on October 23-25. To find out more and to register visit https://thelionwithin.us/events/

    There are seasons in life where God can feel painfully quiet. Prayers seem unanswered, direction feels unclear, and the silence itself can slowly begin to shape how we view Him, ourselves, and the future ahead. If this resonates you may enjoy this plan that just released on the Bible App. To dive into this 5-day plan check it out here https://thelionwithin.us/devotional/im-just-a-guy-silent/
