Ep 136: Happy Wife, Happy Life?

Video
Men’s Alliance

This week Goose and Shadow welcome back Connor "Chief" Dillingham to discuss making hard decisions. Chief led this devotion at the Virginia All Tribe and it sparked great conversation. When it comes to your family and your wife you want to be in alignment, and be on the same page. However sometimes you need to stand up and make the right decision, even if it is not the most popular. All families and wives want and need strong men of faith that take charge when it is needed. That requires us to make sure we are recharging and taking care of ourselves, so we can take care of those that rely on us. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
