In this powerful episode, our men’s Bible study group dives deep into Sound Doctrine by Bobby Jamieson. We explore how doctrine isn’t just for scholars — it’s the lifeblood of a healthy Christian walk. From the nature of Scripture to how we preach, teach, and lead in our homes and churches, we discuss why a clear, whole-Bible view of God is essential — especially for men being called to spiritual leadership.

We also reflect on personal challenges, cultural distractions, and the spiritual warfare that tries to keep men from gathering and growing in truth. Whether you’re new to theology or hungry to grow deeper, this episode will challenge, equip, and encourage you.

In this episode of our men’s Bible study podcast, we explore Discipling by Mark Dever — and how this short but powerful book reshaped our understanding of what it means to truly disciple someone in the church, at home, or at work.

We unpack core Scriptures, personal testimonies, and real talk about how discipling is more about relationship, consistency, humility, and truth in love — not having all the answers.

Key topics:

• What discipleship actually is — and what it’s not
• Why you don’t need to “know everything” to begin discipling
• How Dever’s view lines up with Paul’s charge in Colossians 1:28
• Why humility, not authority, is the key to true influence

Join the discussion and prepare your heart for our next study: Sound Doctrine by Bobby Jamieson.

“Am I really saved?”
In this challenging and heartfelt roundtable, a group of men dive into the book “Conversion: How God Creates a People”by Michael Lawrence, part of the 9Marks series. They talk candidly about false assurance, struggling with sin, spiritual warfare, repentance, biblical evidence of true change, and leading their families in faith.

It’s more than a Bible study—it’s a call to examine your heart, your doctrine, and your discipleship. These are the types of conversations the modern church desperately needs.

🔹 Themes covered:

• What is true biblical conversion?
• Are churches producing false converts?
• Is repentance misunderstood?
• How do we disciple our kids and lead our homes?
• The difference between being nice and being new.

📖 Scripture-anchored. Gospel-centered. Brother-to-brother truth.

Welcome to the first ever men’s Bible study session on The Dad Show. After months of talk, we finally hit record and dove into our launchpad book: What Is the Gospel? by Greg Gilbert.

This episode is more than just Bible talk — it's raw brotherhood, real questions, and spiritual grit. We open up about why we started with this book instead of jumping straight into Scripture, and how the gospel isn’t just a Sunday school answer — it’s the power of God that transforms men into kingdom leaders.

From asking “When should I share the gospel at work?” to tackling the heart of male spiritual apathy, this conversation lays the groundwork for everything that’s coming. If you’ve ever felt stagnant, confused about what the gospel really is, or frustrated with watered-down Christianity — this is the table we’re building for you.

Whether you're a new believer or just tired of spiritual surface-level, this one's for you.

🔑 Topics:

• What is the gospel really?
• Are we too soft with the truth?
• The call for men to lead again
• Conviction, not comfort
• Grace, loss, and spiritual fire
