Reclaiming Biblical Manhood with Dave “Goose” Mills


Listen Later

"Challenge is the most important word for reaching men."

In this episode, we sit down with Dave “Goose” Mills, a former Air Force navigator turned "missionary to men" and founder of Men’s Alliance. Dave shares his powerful journey of surrender—from living for himself in the military to realizing that spiritual leadership is the ultimate "God-sized challenge."

We dive deep into why 92% of churches are failing to engage men and how Men’s Alliance is changing the game through a simple, rugged formula: a 30-minute workout, a fire pit, and a real conversation.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The Power of Challenge: Why men are bored in the pews and how to get them back in the fight.
  • Brotherhood Over Isolation: The meaning behind call signs, tribe culture, and why men bond "shoulder-to-shoulder."
  • Leading at Home: Practical steps for dads to move from the sidelines to becoming the spiritual leaders their families need.
  • Kitchen Table Apologetics: How to equip your kids with a "Carry the Fire" faith that lasts past graduation.

Whether you're feeling isolated in your faith or looking to start a "tribe" in your own backyard, this conversation is your roadmap to getting back on course.
