Men’s Alliance

In the military, the steps to become promotable require sacrifice and discipline, but they are clearly laid out for us. And if we want to be used by God to accomplish great things, we have to make sure we’ve done the basics that He clearly defines for us as well. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Ep 57: The Worst Sales Pitch Ever

Video
Men’s Alliance

If you made up your own religion and wanted to get millions of followers what would you say? Would you promise money? Health? Women? Pleasure? Would you say that your followers could do anything they want without any judgement? If you wanted lots of followers you would do everything the opposite of Christianity. And that is evidence that Christianity was NOT invented by men.

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?
