Shoulder Tap Podcast

Brad is one of the foremost authorities on how digital technologies are affecting our families and churches. Brad and Mike discuss what parents and church leaders need to understand about digital addiction and how to address the situation in today's culture.

In this program, Mike shares some ideas to get the creative juices flowing to think about reaching men who cannot attend specific men's events.

Mike's guest this week is Jeff Kemp, former NFL Quarterback, Author, and Speaker. Listen to Jeff discuss with Mike the need for men to understand they are the beloved sons of God and as men deal with life blitzes, the need for Men Huddles so men can encourage each other.

Mike speaks about the four areas he sees lacking in many churches when it comes to ministering to men.  The question is, "If your church does not think it needs a formal men's ministry, does the church still have one?

Dale joins Mike to discuss a ministry that helps men work through the process of being divorce.  Dale is convinced that every man who is divorced can experience God's love and transformation.  The ministry of Men's Divorce Recovery is designed to help men find God and his plan for the second half of their lives.

As we develop our ministry to men in our churches, as leaders, we need to make sure we are doing what God would have us do to reach the men helping them grow spiritually.  Listen as Mike shares an experience when God taught him to stop and listen.

Larry joins Mike on this episode to discuss his ministry and topics that God has directed him to speak on regularly at this time; anger and peer pressure.  Larry will be with Mike at the North Carolina ISI Conferences later this year discussing these very topics during the Breakout Sessions.

In this episode, Mike talks about four things you can do to get to know your men using a basketball coach's thoughts on developing his team.  Knowing your men will help create an effective and vibrate ministry to men.

In this program, Charles Hall and I discuss his new book Finding Treasures in the Psalms.  As we continue to encourage men to have a daily quiet time devotional, it seemed appropriate for us to talk about the book with it just coming out in the past few weeks.

On this podcast, I am sharing some insights to think through as you create activities for your men.  There are three areas you need to give strong consideration as you plan and encourage men to move into discipling relationships.  I will share how each of these can be used as you continue to create an effective and vibrate ministry to men.
