Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

Mission Briefing 42: Saving Relationships, Not Ending Them - Not All "Counselors" Give Good Advice

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose discusses the significance of finding a good counselor and the importance of restoring relationships rather than ending them. He shares his experiences with both giving and receiving counseling and the potential harm caused by a bad counselor who advised him to leave his marriage based on personal happiness rather than what is right. Goose emphasizes the importance of communication and conflict resolution skills in repairing relationships and warns against counselors who encourage ending relationships or labeling them as toxic. He suggests that such counselors may be motivated by popularity and their advice could contradict Christian teachings. All in all, Goose encourages individuals to seek counseling from someone who will help them see that relationship problems are temporary and provide tools to fix them.

Mission Briefing 03: Stop Hinting

Video
Men’s Alliance

Too many pastors are tiptoeing vaguely around the edges of truth. Watch out for what is said and not said by articulate speakers trying not to offend. The gospel is offensive. Be bold and call out sin. This is no time to coward away from biblical truth. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Ep. 202: Jesus WANTS us to Take Risks Through Faith - Leadership & Culture ft. Pastor Brian Hughes

Video
Men’s Alliance

Pastor Brian Hughes from Passion Community Church shares his journey to faith, which began later in life after experiencing a pivotal moment with his daughter. Despite initial challenges and criticisms, Brian followed God's guidance to create a church for non-traditional churchgoers, leading to significant growth and impact. His emphasis on trusting in God's provision, taking risks, and fostering a culture of transparency and delegation has allowed the church to thrive and reach a wider audience. The importance of aligning actions with God's will, seeking feedback, and empowering others within the organization are key themes in Brian's leadership approach, ultimately resulting in a supportive and accountable community focused on continuous progress and following God's calling.
