What kind of man are you becoming?

In this episode of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, we get real about identity, purpose, and the struggle many men face trying to live up to an image instead of living in truth.

We talk about:

• Why living a “fake identity” is exhausting
• The difference between cultural validation and real purpose
• How shame, past mistakes, and insecurity hold men back
• Why blaming the devil can actually keep you stuck
• What it really looks like to take responsibility and grow

This conversation isn’t about perfection, it’s about honesty, repentance, and becoming the man God actually created you to be. If you’ve ever felt stuck, lost, or unsure of your direction… this one’s for you.

Marriage, kids, responsibility… and everything that comes with it.

In this episode, Grant and Bennett talk through what they’ve been learning in real time, navigating pressure, growing through challenges, and figuring out what it actually looks like to lead well.

They also get into something that’s been key for both of them: not doing life alone. The role of having the right people around you, and how that shapes everything from your faith to your day-to-day decisions.

Just a real, unfiltered conversation about growth, responsibility, and becoming the man you’re trying to be. Hope you enjoy this episode!

Four years of marriage, two kids, and a lot of growth in between.

In this episode, my wife and I talk about what we’re learning in real time, communication, pressure, parenting, and staying aligned when life gets full.

We also get into something that’s been essential for us: not trying to do any of this alone. The role community has played in our marriage, our faith, and how we show up as parents. Because isolation doesn’t just affect you, it eventually touches everything around you.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend EJ Medina—former youth pastor, now working in finance, and a husband and dad who’s trying to live this thing out faithfully.

We talk through the transition from ministry into the marketplace, what it looks like to honor God in your work, and how faith actually shows up in everyday decisions—especially when it comes to money, responsibility, and leading a family well.

In this episode of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, I sit down with my friend Brett Pack for a real conversation about his life, his faith, and the story behind his film Ocala.

We talk through the journey—what God’s brought him through, the risks he’s taken, and what it’s looked like to step out and create something meaningful without having it all figured out. Brett shares the heart behind the film and how obedience played a bigger role than comfort.

This one isn’t about having a perfect plan—it’s about trusting God, using what you’ve been given, and moving when He calls.

Very grateful for Brett—his friendship, his honesty, and the way he’s choosing to live this out!

In this episode of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, I sit down with Fouad Masri, founder of the Crescent Project, for a powerful and eye-opening conversation about faith, Islam, and the Great Commission.We talk about one of the most overlooked mission fields in the world—reaching Muslims with the gospel. Fouad shares insight from years of ministry, breaking down common misconceptions, cultural barriers, and what it actually looks like to share Jesus with truth, wisdom, and love.This isn’t about arguments—it’s about understanding, obedience, and stepping into the mission Jesus gave us.

In this episode of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, I sit down with Matthew Keegan and Taylor Blaze for a real, unfiltered conversation about faith, discernment, pain, and what it actually looks like to follow God in the middle of real life.We dive into how the word “discernment” has become overused—and often misused—especially in today’s culture and online spaces. What does true biblical discernment actually look like, and how do we avoid confusing it with our own opinions?We also talk about pain—the kind you can’t avoid—and how God uses it. Not all pain is meaningless. In fact, some of the deepest growth, clarity, and transformation come through it. No pain is wasted when it’s placed in God’s hands.This conversation challenges surface-level faith and pushes into something deeper—dependence, obedience, and living with purpose.

In Episode 04 of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, we sit down with theologian Daniel Clubb for an honest and thoughtful conversation about faith, Scripture, and the Church.In this episode we dive into the differences and common ground between Catholicism, Orthodoxy, and Protestantism, exploring how each tradition approaches Scripture, authority, and church history. We also talk about the role of marriage, the importance of biblical brotherhood, and what it means for men to pursue truth while remaining grounded in humility and unity.This conversation challenges us to think deeply about what we believe, why we believe it, and how Scripture shapes the way we live, lead, and love.

In this episode of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, we dive into a conversation about who God really is, what the church is meant to be, and what it actually means to follow Jesus as a disciple.Too often our understanding of God is shaped by culture, opinions, or bad experiences rather than Scripture. In this episode we talk about the character of God revealed in the Bible, why understanding His nature matters for our faith, and how that shapes the way we live.We also discuss the role of the church, what it’s supposed to look like, where it sometimes gets off track, and why real discipleship can’t happen if faith only shows up on Sunday morning.

What is prayer really? A ritual? A last resort? A religious habit? Or is it the lifeline that holds everything together?In Episode two of the Soul Wrangler Podcast, Taylor Blaze sits down to share his story and talk about the real power of prayer. Not polished, not performative, but persistent and personal. We unpack why so many men struggle to pray, what keeps us silent before God, and how prayer shifts from duty to dependence.
