  • #264 – Guys Make for Porn: Interview with Dobber & Vern

    Most guys don’t take enough time to really slow down and examine the lame EXCUSES they’re making for their porn use – so they don’t really see how foolish and even dangerous their porn use truly is.

    This episode is a conversation I had with two friends – Matt Dobshuetz, the Host of the Porn Free Radio Podcast and Vern Tompke, the host of the Finding Traction Podcast.

    We talk about the many EXCUSES that guys make for using porn, and we examine those EXCUSES to help you reconsider using them to rationalize your porn use.

  • #262 – Temptation and Self-Talk: The Mental Conversation Before the Compromise

    To become a man who is more calm, confident, disciplined, honest, pure, joyful, friendly, and attractive … you have to be extremely intentional about what you say to yourself in your mind (every.single.day).

    Your self-talk is crucial to your success as a man.

    “So much of the unhappiness in your life is because you’re listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself.” – Dr. Martyn Lloyd Jones

    On this episode, I talk about how to properly use self-talk when temptation hits.

  • #261 – Your Comfort-Zone is Killing You

    Some of you are comfortable.

    Way too comfortable.

    And honestly… it’s killing you—and you don’t even realize it yet.

    Comfort was killing me too.

    We’ve been lied to, my brothers. We’ve been deceived into believing that perpetual comfort is the goal of life. That we’re happiest when we stay inside our comfort zone.

    But that’s not true.

    Too much comfort is slowly destroying us—physically, mentally, and spiritually.

    On this episode of The GRIZ Podcast, you’re going to see why stepping outside your comfort zone matters as we dig into Michael Easter’s bestselling book, The Comfort Crisis, and God’s bestselling book—the Bible.

    Both reveal the same truth: growth doesn’t come from ease.

    It comes from doing hard things.

    From facing pain.

    Hardship.

    Fear.

    Depression.

    Loneliness.

    Rejection.

    Loss.

    Discomfort.

    Because discomfort isn’t your enemy.

    It’s your training ground.

  • #261 - Your Comfort-Zone is Killing You!
    Some of you are comfortable, way too comfortable, disgustingly comfortable ... and quite frankly it's killing you and you don't even know it, not yet anyway. Comfort was killing me too. We've been lied to my brothers ... we've been deceived to believe that perpetual comfort is the goal of life, but it's not. We've been deceived to believe that we're most happy when we're always in our comfort-zone, but we're not. Too much comfort is killing us ... physically, mentally, and spiritually. And on this episode of The GRIZ Podcast, you're going to see the benefits of getting out of your comfort-zone as we dig into Michael Easter's best-selling book, The Comfort Crisis, and also dig into God's best-selling book, The Bible. Both of those books reveal the amazing benefits of doing hard things ... of facing pain, hardship, fear, depression, loneliness, rejection, loss ... DISCOMFORT!!!

  • #260 – Becoming a Disciplined Man

    On this episode, I talk to you about becoming a more disciplined man. None of us are as disciplined as we could be or should be (including myself) … and our lack of discipline is holding us back from experiencing the freedom and success that we could be experiencing in our lives.

    I’m going to help you understand … what discipline actually is … why it’s so crucial … some areas where we definitely need more discipline … and I wrap up with some practical ways to develop and fuel discipline.

    If you’ve been drudging along in a lazy, gluttonous, self-indulgent rut … this episode is going to motivate you to rise up and get after it my brothers.
