In this episode of The Public Square on the Pursuing Faith Network, Iggy and Mike continue the conversation on biblical masculinity—but this time by looking at what manhood is not.
They react to a viral moment involving Myron Gaines, where a man approaches him and admits that after following his advice, he felt empty, disconnected, and even led into sin. Rather than taking responsibility for the message he promotes, accountability is deflected—and that moment opens the door to a much deeper conversation.
Iggy and Mike unpack why so many men are drawn to self-centered versions of masculinity, how “me-first” teaching leads to emptiness, and why strength without humility and submission to God will always fall short. Using Scripture, discernment, and real-life experience, they contrast culture’s definition of manhood with the biblical standard that actually brings life, purpose, and freedom.
This episode isn’t about attacking people—it’s about protecting men from messages that promise fulfillment but deliver emptiness.

In this week’s episode of The Public Square on the Pursuing Faith Network, Iggy and Pastor Mike sit down for one of the most requested and most sensitive conversations in the modern church: Should women be pastors? It’s a topic that has sparked debates across denominations, shaped entire church cultures, and left many believers unsure about what Scripture actually teaches.

Iggy approaches the subject with deep respect, acknowledging that as two men they’re navigating a conversation that directly affects women all over the body of Christ. But instead of leaning on opinion or tradition, they go straight to the Word, unpacking passages that have created tension for generations while also highlighting the many powerful and essential women God used throughout the Bible. What begins as a tough question turns into a meaningful exploration of God’s design, the heart behind leadership, and the unique role women have always played in the story of redemption.

This is a thoughtful and honest dialogue where both hosts wrestle with Scripture, challenge assumptions, and try to understand what faithfulness looks like in the church today. Whether you agree or disagree, this conversation invites you to pause, reflect, and seek God’s heart above everything else.
