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
