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."

Listen to full episodeIn a marathon, when you can't run any more, you walk for a while, but you don't throw in the towel and quit. This same lesson can be applied to everything we do in life. There's nothing wrong with taking a rest in order to recharge and then getting back into the game. Don't be a man who gives up entirely when all that was needed was a season of rest. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
Listen to full episodeEver feel like the Men's Alliance workout is too hard? Like the bar is set too high? In this podcast you'll hear how that is a metaphor for our spiritual lives, too. The standard set for us is Jesus Christ and we all fall short of the mark. At Men's Alliance we give ourselves grace when we fall short of the standard, but we will never lower the bar. Not physically and not spiritually either. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
