The good news of Jesus doesn't make any sense unless we first understand the depths of the bad news. We're all sinners who deserve separation from God for all eternity. That's some bad news right there. Sadly, many churches in America are afraid of giving the bad news. They want to be popular and preach feel-good messages that won't offend anyone. But a church that tries to please everyone ends up pleasing no one. Find a healthy church where the pastor isn't afraid to talk about sin and hell and why it is that we need the good news of Christ. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Listen to full episodeIsaiah "Tank" Baker shares his journey from an incredibly challenging upbringing to joining the Army and finding Jesus. Raised in a financially struggling family, he moved between schools, lacked guidance, and dealt with his father’s absence due to prison. During his troubled teen years, he experimented with drugs and alcohol. In college, on a wrestling scholarship, he faced academic probation and lost his scholarship after his step father’s overdose. Tank coped with grief through heavy drinking and chaotic living, but after years of trying to find purpose after his stepdad's passing, he joined the Army to escape his destructive path. He became a medic, served in Afghanistan, and eventually found faith with his wife in Texas, marking a turning point in their spiritual journey.

Listen to full episodeGoose sits down with Jason “Eagle” Dickinson, a pastor from Albuquerque, New Mexico, whose world was flipped upside down in one moment of Holy Spirit conviction. After witnessing broken families and men drifting spiritually, Eagle cried out to God for a strategy—something REAL that would ignite the hearts of men in his church.Six months later, in a packed conference lobby in Dallas, he saw a booth he’d never heard of: Men’s Alliance. A pull-up bar. A creed on the wall. A few guys with call signs like Goose and Thor slinging coffee and brotherhood. And in that moment, Eagle sensed God whisper: “This is what you’ve been looking for.”He walked straight out of the conference, found Goose in the lobby, and said the words that changed New Mexico:“I’m going home to start a tribe next Saturday.”What happened next is nothing short of supernatural.In this conversation, Goose and Eagle dive into why Men’s Alliance works where other men’s ministries fail—how physical struggle, outdoor fire, authenticity, call signs, and weekly leadership opportunities awaken something inside a man that sitting in a church pew never will.They talk about men breaking free from addictions, pastors finally having a place to “just be a dude,” tribes multiplying, churches becoming healthier, families changing, and why men were designed by God to do hard things—in workouts, in marriage, and in fatherhood.If you’ve ever wondered:How do you actually reach the men in your church? How do you disciple men who don’t open up? How do you build a culture where men step up instead of shrink back?—you are about to hear the answer.This is the New Mexico story.It’s raw. It’s powerful.And it might be the spark your church—or your state—needs next.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador’s Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV
