In this powerful episode of Men After God, Dustin Alley and Luke Sorensen dive deep into one of the most essential—but often overlooked—spiritual disciplines: Bible reading.

Together, they unpack the real-life struggles Christian men face when it comes to engaging with God’s Word—like time constraints, distractions, shame, and even imposter syndrome. This episode isn’t just theory; it’s packed with practical frameworks, heart-level honesty, and a clear call to consistency and connection with God.

 ✔️ Discipline is freedom.
 ✔️ Overcoming shame is crucial for spiritual growth.
 ✔️ Consistency in Bible reading is key to spiritual health.
 ✔️ The Bible should be a conversation, not just a checklist.

Join Luke Sorensen as he continues the journey through Proverbs 6, diving deep into the character traits God hates—and what they reveal about our hearts. This episode unpacks two powerful sections: the destructive nature of a deceitful life and the sobering list of seven things God finds abominable.
