What are you clinging to that's weighing you down? Apostle Paul's powerful declaration in Philippians 3:7 offers a transformative perspective on surrender and true fulfillment: "But whatever were gains to me, I now consider loss for the sake of Christ." Paul wasn't speaking as someone with nothing to lose. As the "Pharisee of Pharisees," he had achieved the highest religious status in his culture. Yet after encountering Jesus, everything he once valued suddenly appeared worthless compared to knowing Christ. His radical transformation reveals a powerful truth: the things we believe bring fulfillment often leave us empty.

Every Christian father wrestles with the weight of responsibility—how do we effectively pass our faith to our children in a way that truly sticks? Drawing from Psalm 78:4, this episode dives deep into the biblical mandate to "tell the next generation" about God's faithfulness. We explore Barrett Johnson's powerful framework for discipling children like Jesus discipled His followers—through abiding, modeling, teaching, applying, and connecting. The conversation unpacks practical strategies that any father can implement, regardless of biblical knowledge or background. You'll discover a simple three-question approach (What happened? So what? Now what?) that transforms family Bible study from awkward monologues into engaging dialogues that build genuine faith understanding.

Every Christian father carries a divine mandate to disciple their children, passing down not just traditions but a living faith. Drawing from Psalm 78:4, this episode explores the profound responsibility we have to share God's praiseworthy deeds and wonders with the next generation. Your children pay attention to more than your words—they're watching how you live your faith. When you share personal stories of God's faithfulness in your life, you transform abstract biblical concepts into tangible realities they can grasp and remember. The faith that sticks isn't found in occasional religious conversations but in the daily rhythm of life—bedtime prayers, dinner discussions, car rides, and walking together.

We're constantly pulled between career demands, family responsibilities, and spiritual growth—often leaving us exhausted and wondering if we're failing at everything. This week's episode tackles this universal struggle head-on by unpacking the powerful lesson Jesus taught Martha in Luke 10:41-42 about choosing "what is better."

Do you find yourself constantly running from one commitment to the next with barely a moment to breathe? In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the biblical concept of margin and why it's absolutely essential for Christian men who want to grow as disciples and leaders. The story of Martha and Mary serves as our foundation, revealing how even well-intentioned service can rob us of what matters most. Martha's frantic preparations while Jesus sat in her living room mirror our own tendency to prioritize busyness over presence. As Jesus gently reminded her, "Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."

Feeling constantly overwhelmed by life's demands? You're not alone. Christian men everywhere struggle with packed schedules and relentless to-do lists that leave little room for what truly matters. This powerful episode unpacks the biblical concept of margin through the story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10:41-42. Jesus' gentle correction to Martha - "You are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed, or indeed only one" - speaks directly to our modern dilemma of productivity versus purpose. Like Martha, we can become so consumed with doing good things that we miss Christ's presence right in front of us.

Disaster struck Western North Carolina when Hurricane Helene tore through communities, leaving devastation in its wake. This catastrophic event revealed a sobering truth about church disaster response – sometimes well-meaning Christians become what relief expert Daniel calls "the second disaster" after the initial crisis. Despite having compassionate hearts, many volunteers lack the training and coordination needed to truly serve effectively.

Have you ever wondered how churches could better respond to disasters? Daniel Geraci's journey from healthy fast food entrepreneur to disaster relief pioneer reveals a powerful model that's transforming how Christians serve during crises. When Hurricane Katrina sent thousands to his Austin community in 2005, Daniel received a divine download - a vision for uniting churches to respond to disasters with coordination and compassion. What he discovered shocked him: emergency managers often consider churches "the second disaster" during crises due to well-meaning but untrained volunteers saying the wrong things at the wrong time.

The parable of the Good Samaritan offers a challenging blueprint for Christian men seeking to live out their faith beyond mere sympathy. When Jesus commanded "Go and do likewise," He wasn't offering a gentle suggestion—He was giving a clear directive that confronts our comfortable, outsourced approach to helping others. The Good Samaritan didn't hesitate when confronted with human suffering. He didn't check his schedule or wallet. He simply acted, crossing cultural and social boundaries to provide immediate aid to someone society had deemed unworthy.
