Ep 98: Marathon Mentality

Video
Men’s Alliance

In 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

If we are to be the husbands and fathers that God designed us to be then we must know the threats that are out there and avoid them at all costs. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

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."
