Pastor Brian Hughes from Passion Community Church shares his journey to faith, which began later in life after experiencing a pivotal moment with his daughter. Despite initial challenges and criticisms, Brian followed God's guidance to create a church for non-traditional churchgoers, leading to significant growth and impact. His emphasis on trusting in God's provision, taking risks, and fostering a culture of transparency and delegation has allowed the church to thrive and reach a wider audience. The importance of aligning actions with God's will, seeking feedback, and empowering others within the organization are key themes in Brian's leadership approach, ultimately resulting in a supportive and accountable community focused on continuous progress and following God's calling.

The old phrase "Marriage takes hard work" is a gross understatement. The truth is there will be times when you want to kill each other! But when you find yourself in one of these low points in marriage and you're thinking about walking away, know this - we've all been there, and it will get better. Hey, we wouldn't have to take a vow before God that "until death do us part" if this marriage thing were supposed to be easy! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
