Ep 7: Lighthouse Or Shipwreck

Video
Men’s Alliance

We all make mistakes; we all crash into the rocks at some point in our life.  The question is are you going to let that failure sink you to the bottom permanently, or will you illuminate the dangers to help keep others from making the same mistake?  As Christian men, we can't allow our past failures to keep us on the sideline.  Our families still need us to lead them spiritually.  So get back up, dust yourself off, and get back in the game!

Ep 77: Peter Was a Failure w/ Mark McGrath

Video
Men’s Alliance

Peter was brash and bold.  Jesus rebuked him several times, yet he was listed first among the disciples in the gospel.  The fact that Peter was a disciple should give us comfort knowing that we are not the only ones to fail.  Even with all Peter's failures, Jesus told him "I say to you that you are Peter (which means 'rock'), and upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.".  What will Jesus do with you, even with all your failures?
