Many men keep their faith separate from the rest of their lives — Sunday belief, weekday habits. But that kind of faith doesn’t hold up when pressure comes.

In this episode of the Courageous Men Podcast, Whitney Sewell sits down with David Niccolini to talk about what it looks like to bring Jesus off the shelf and into every part of life — marriage, fatherhood, business, and the fight against human trafficking.

David shares hard-earned wisdom from more than 25 years of marriage, raising courageous children, and standing on the front lines of spiritual and physical danger. Together, they challenge men to reject passivity and step into their God-given responsibility to protect, lead, and love well.

This episode covers:

• Why compartmentalized faith leaves families vulnerable
• How to build a marriage that thrives over decades
• What courageous fatherhood looks like in today’s world
• The connection between faith, leadership, and justice
• Why men must lead with conviction, not comfort

This conversation is a call to action for fathers, husbands, and leaders who want a faith that actually shows up — and a legacy that truly lasts.

Many men start businesses to provide for their families - but over time, the very thing they built to bless their home begins to burden it.

In this episode of the Courageous Men Podcast, Whitney Sewell challenges leaders to ask an honest question: Is my business serving my family, or is my family serving my business?

Whitney shares a personal story of success without presence and walks through five practical, biblical principles to help men build businesses that support — not steal from — their homes. Drawing from Scripture, especially Joshua 24:15, he reframes success around priority, peace, and lordship rather than constant striving.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why good intentions aren’t enough to protect your family
• How to set boundaries that honor your home
• What it looks like to include your family in your mission
• Why your schedule reveals what you really trust
• How to measure success by faithfulness, not frenzy

This episode is for Christian men who want to lead well at work and at home — without sacrificing one for the other.

If you lead anything — a business, a team, or your family — you know the constant pressure to fix problems fast. Fires pop up everywhere, and every issue feels urgent.

In this episode of the Courageous Men Podcast, Whitney Sewell introduces the idea of still leadership — the ability to remain grounded in the middle of chaos and lead from peace instead of panic.

Through Psalm 46:10 and the story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4, Whitney challenges the belief that control equals strength. He explains why control is often rooted in fear, how stillness is an act of faith, and why the most peaceful person in the storm often carries the greatest authority.

You’ll learn:

• Why trying to fix everything leads to burnout and anxiety
• How stillness strengthens leadership rather than weakening it
• When to step in — and when to trust God to handle the fire
• Practical rhythms to move from reaction to discernment
• How leading from peace transforms your team, business, and home

This episode is for men who want to lead courageously without carrying a weight God never asked them to hold.

Your calendar is preaching a message — the question is, what is it saying about your faith?

In this episode of The Courageous Men Podcast, Whitney Sewell breaks down how your schedule quietly reveals what (and Who) you trust. Drawing from a recent conversation with Graham Cochrane, Whitney unpacks the biblical truth that intentional rest isn’t laziness — it’s trusting God with your limits.

Psalm 127 reminds us that anxious striving builds nothing that lasts. But surrendered work invites God’s strength into the places we feel stretched thin.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What your schedule reveals about your theology
• How fear hides behind “productivity”
• Five practical steps to restore faith to your weekly rhythm
• Why margin is an act of obedience, not weakness
• How to apply the “Faith Filter” when new opportunities come your way

If you’re overbooked, overwhelmed, or constantly “on,” this conversation will help you reset, refocus, and lead with courage.

Work is worship — not just what happens on Sundays.

In this short episode, entrepreneur and author Graham Cochrane shares how faith reshapes the way we approach productivity, limits, rest, and the daily grind. He reminds us that our lives aren’t meant to be split into “faith over here” and “work over there.” It’s all connected.

When we trust God with our limits, we’re not being lazy — we’re actually living out worship. And true success isn’t found in more hustle, but in walking in rhythm with Him.

This is a practical and freeing conversation for every Christian man who wants to work from a place of peace, purpose, and obedience.
