The Lion Within Us - Leadership for Christian Men

Send us Fan Mail

Faith doesn’t magically appear in your kids when they graduate high school or start asking big questions. It is formed slowly, quietly, and powerfully where they live with you. We open with 2 Timothy 1:5 and Paul’s words about Timothy’s “sincere faith,” then we follow the trail back to the people who shaped it first: his grandmother Lois and his mother Eunice. That’s a wake-up call for Christian dads who want strong families and real spiritual leadership at home.

The enemy is relentless—doing everything possible to steal, kill, and destroy what matters most in your life. It’s time to fight back. True transformation happens when intentionality meets obedience. Take notes, apply these truths, and extend grace to yourself. Real change takes time—but if you stay faithful, the impact will reach far beyond what you can see.  👉 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FLWYQJMB

A hidden struggle can make you feel like two different men: the one everyone sees and the one who fights private battles in silence. We sit down with Lion Within member Jim Barnhart, and his testimony goes straight to the places many Christian men avoid: abandonment, coping, lust, and the slow drift into a faith that shows up on Sunday but disappears the rest of the week.

UFO talk used to feel like background noise, but it’s getting louder, slicker, and more persuasive and that matters if you’re trying to lead your home with wisdom. We sit down with award-winning filmmaker and author Derrick Warfel to look at the UFO phenomenon through a Christian worldview and ask a harder question than “Is it real?”: what message is being preached through it, and who benefits if the church stays silent?

The internet is packed with loud headlines, viral theories, and “hidden knowledge” that promises clarity but often produces fear. We slow the whole thing down with 1 John 4:1 and a simple, biblical challenge: don’t believe every spirit, test the spirits. As Christian men, we are not called to be naive, and we are not called to be paranoid. We are called to be discerning.

A guy doesn’t usually wake up one morning “different.” Change shows up when the small, faithful choices stack up: opening Scripture again, telling the truth to another man, praying when you would rather distract yourself, and learning how to lead at home without pretending you have it all together. That’s why Jeremiah’s story hit me so hard, because the people closest to him noticed something new and he could trace it back to one shift: consistent discipleship and brotherhood.

Something is off in the West, and you can feel it: the vulnerable get sacrificed, the powerful get protected, and too many churches respond with silence. We sit down with Seth Gruber, president of White Rose Resistance and creator behind The Last Stand: Christ or Chaos and The 1916 Project, to name what many Christian men sense but struggle to articulate. Seth argues the culture war is not mainly about personalities or parties, but about a deeper spiritual conflict against Christ and the Christian foundation that gave the West its moral vocabulary: sanctity of life, human dignity, rule of law, and protection for the weak.

Forgetting God doesn’t usually look like shaking your fist at heaven. It looks like staying busy, staying entertained, and slowly going numb. We open with Psalm 88:12 and that chilling phrase “the land of forgetfulness,” then we get brutally honest about how spiritual drift works in real life for Christian men: it’s subtle, it’s quiet, and it often shows up as convenience over conviction and comfort over obedience.

Most men don’t need more religious noise, they need a clear path to become the leaders God intends them to be. That’s why we tried something different: a candid “Ask My Mentor” sit-down with Buck Jacobs, a man who’s spent decades spotting what’s healthy and unhealthy inside organizations and who brings that same clarity to the modern church.

Temptation rarely kicks the door down. More often, it slides in through a thought we don’t challenge, a scroll we don’t stop, or a private habit we keep feeding until it feels bigger than us. We’re opening the Bible and getting honest about what Christian men actually face, using 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 as our anchor: stay humble, stay alert, and trust God to provide a real way of escape when pressure hits.

The most dangerous words a man can say are “I’d never do that.” Temptation doesn’t usually kick down the front door, it slips in through small compromises we excuse, hide, or downplay. We open 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 and get honest about why spiritual overconfidence is a trap for Christian men who want strong marriages, clean integrity, and real spiritual leadership.
