August 03, 2022 E-181: A Personal Purity Climbing Plan!
On this episode, I talk about the need for a personal purity climbing plan.
What is a personal purity climbing plan?
Good question.
It's basically a structured plan that I've developed for my life that includes daily and weekly disciplines, scheduled connections, and safety ropes (boundaries) to help me stay on the narrow trail ... to keep me growing/advancing in the area of personal purity/holiness.
Over the years, I've learned the hard way that a man without a plan is a man who's planning to fail!
At the conclusion of this episode, I also share about the launch of our first Climb Team.
What is a Climb Team?
Another good question.
Climb Teams are online communities of like-minded Christian men who provide connection, support, accountability, guidance, and encouragement to one another in order to help each other grow in Christ and fulfill His mission.

July 26, 2022 E-180: Death to Selfie! - Part 1
If you want to be a real man, then you need to die to selfie!
If you want to live a life of meaning, purpose, impact ... and live with fewer regrets, then you need to die to selfie!
If you want to stand before God at the judgment seat of Christ and hear Him say, "Well, done my good and faithful servant." ... then you need to die to selfie!
This is what God has been teaching me and it's been a painful and humbling lesson.

July 18, 2022 E-179: The Dash Matters!
When you're in the best moments of your life here on earth, you don't realize it. It seemed like an ordinary day with a family member or friends, but years later you look back and know it was sacred. You wish you could go back, but you can't. Time marches on. My friends, relish the sacred memories and give thanks for them ... and do your best with the time you have left to create them for others! The dash matters!
Poem by Linda Ellis - The Dash
Commentary by Jenny Dsouza - https://lifeism.co/the-dash-poem-by-linda-ellis
Ephesians 5:16 ... redeem the time, because the days are evil.
James 4:14 ... What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.

July 10, 2022 E-178: Interview with Dr. Steven L. Jones - Part 2 - Abortion
This is Part 2 of my conversation with Dr. Steven L. Jones. Steven is a husband, father, Pastor at Kingsland Baptist Church in Katy, TX, Professor at Rice University in Houston, TX, and an author. His area of specialty is in ancient languages as well as the Greek and Latin roots of medical language. He has also taught at several universities on the important subject of "rhetoric."
Here in Part 2 of my conversation with him, we intentionally dig into the controversial subject of abortion and why so many conversations on that subject turn into a complete train wreck.
Specifically, we talk about ...
- The importance of not talking past the other person.
- How to redirect conversations without hijacking or steamrolling people with facts.
- How to disagree without being disagreeable.
- How to present truth in relevant ways that won't turn people off.
- And how knowing the meaning of medical terminology can be extremely helpful in helping people understand the real issue regarding abortion.
This was such an enlightening conversation. I not only learned a ton, but I was deeply encouraged by Steven's heart for God ... his pursuit and proclamation of truth ... as well as his genuine concern/love for others (even for those with whom he completely disagrees).

July 06, 2022 E-177: Interview with Dr. Steven L. Jones - Part 1
On this episode, my guest is Dr. Steven L. Jones. He is a husband, father, Pastor at Kingsland Baptist Church in Katy, TX, Professor at Rice University in Houston, TX, and published author.
His area of specialty is in ancient languages as well as the Greek and Latin roots of medical terms. He's also taught at several universities on the important subject of "rhetoric."
This is a two-episode conversation. There was just too much good stuff to fit into one episode, so I split it up.
Here in Part 1 of my conversation with Dr. Steven L. Jones, we talk about ...
- What he likes to do for fun, pleasure, relaxation.
- His favorite rock band.
- Favorite movies.
- Books that had a major impact upon his life.
- Marriage, family, parenting ... and lessons learned.
- Life growing up in a Christian military family.
- When he truly made his parent's faith his own faith ... and why.
- His personal call to ministry and his various educational pursuits/degrees and why he chose to go that direction.
Guys, I promise you ... you're going to want to grab your journal and pen and take some notes from this brother. So many great takeaways. Powerful stuff.

June 29, 2022 E-176: A Conversation with Matt Dobschuetz - Why Nice Guys Recover Last!
On this episode, I have an interesting conversation with my good friend Matt Dobschuetz from The Porn Free Radio Podcast. We discuss integrity, “nice guy syndrome”, and what’s needed to live a whole/undivided life.
We don't need any more "nice guys."
We need men to get real about their needs, wounds, struggles, weaknesses, sins, failures, etc. ... and then start making real biblical changes!

June 27, 2022 E-175: Roe is Overturned, but Don't be an Arrogant Ass!
This past Friday, the United States Supreme Court overturned the famous Roe V. Wade case that legalized abortion in America back in 1973. It was a 6-3 decision in Dobbs v.s. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
This ruling does NOT say "abortion is now illegal in the United States." This ruling simply says that that the people of the United States (through their elected representatives) should be deciding whether or not to allow or regulate abortion. It puts the decision back on the state level, and that's a good thing. It's a long overdue victory for the life of the unborn.
On this episode of The GRIZ Podcast, I'm going to to help you better understand what this historic decision means and also explain what we as Christian men need to better understand about abortion and how to respond to those who hold an opposing view. Many "Christians" are talking about abortion in the wrong way. I saw it all weekend on Facebook. There's a better, more intelligent, and more loving way for us to talk about the issue of abortion that causes people with an opposing view to think and question their views.
This is something I've been learning from two guys: Shawn Carney and Steve Karlen ... Authors of the incredible book, "What To Say When ... The Complete New Guide to Discussing Abortion." - https://www.amazon.com/What-Say-When-Complete-Discussing/dp/1737047705/
Everybody's talking about abortion. Good. Let's talk about it, but let's first learn how to talk about it.
