Ep. 197: Men's Struggle with Isolation & the Need for Brotherhood with Kevin 'Banzai' Nentwich

Banzai reflects on pivotal decisions that significantly impacted both his business and personal life. He shares how starting his own business and niching down were crucial for his career, while moving from New York to California and homeschooling his children gave him valuable time back. He also discusses the influence of Men's Alliance on his life, which helped him strengthen his faith, create friendships, and find a sense of community. He now focuses on giving back to this network as he steps away from the financial world. Banzai also shares his journey from joining a men's group three and a half years ago to starting his own tribe, Coastal Tribe, in Virginia. He emphasizes the importance of connecting with others who have faced similar challenges and encourages those feeling stressed, especially those in their 30s, to seek out such connections. The hosts discuss the importance of connection and how many people feel isolated in their struggles. They also reflect on their personal journeys of deepening their Christian faith and understanding the Bible.

Ep 121: Men's Ministry in America

Video
Men’s Alliance

Men's ministry needs to create bonds, if your version of a men's ministry is only a monthly breakfast, that just doesn't cut it. Churches need to step up their game when it comes to connecting with men, and that is where Men's Alliance makes a huge impact.

Ep 67: Eat The Frog w/ Jeff VanAtta

Video
Men’s Alliance

If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning. And If it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest and ugliest one first. - Mark Twain What is the Frog you need to Eat first thing in the morning to move your life closer to God or family? Life is not about who completes the most maintenance tasks.  What is important is seldom urgent, and what is urgent is seldom important. - Dwight D.

Ep 28: Raise the Bar

Video
Men’s Alliance

Ever 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
