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.

Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

Video
Men’s Alliance

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."
