Ep 16: Is Church Just for Women & Children?

Video
Men’s Alliance

Many churches today have surrendered the battleground of men's hearts and focused instead on bringing in a demographic that's easier to attract - kids.  This mistake has led to the feminization of church. It's time for the church to meet men where they are by un-bundling the message of Jesus from the routine of "going to church." "When a mother comes to Christ, her family will join her at church only 17% of the time; but when a father comes to Christ, his family joins him 93% of the time." - WACMM.org Find your tribe at mensalliancetribe.com  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Ep 15: Culture & Callsigns

Video
Men’s Alliance

Culture is what makes a group unique and it's what determines who is the "us" and "them."  What sort of culture have you created in your family? Is it a fun family culture that will be fondly remembered for generations?  If not, you can change that today. You can build the culture you want.  In Men's Alliance we have a culture unlike any group I've ever been in. It sets us apart as a group of men who value honor, strength, patriarchy, and God, - a brotherhood of like-minded men. It's our culture that makes Men's Alliance incredible.

Ep 14: Equip Your Kids

Video
Men’s Alliance

Our kids are a lot smarter than most churches think.  And we should teach them the deep answers to tough questions.  Set them up to know what they believe and why.  Demand more from your youth group than just games and pizza.  If you want your kid to have a foundation that cannot be shaken by their atheists college professors than give them the apologetics they crave now.  Trust me, they can handle it.  Recommended Books: I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be An Atheist - Frank Turek Cold Case Christianity - J.

Ep 5: Safety vs The Mission

Video
Men’s Alliance

What do you pray for the most?  Is it safety? Security?  Traveling mercies?  What did Peter and John pray for after spending a night in prison and then being ordered to stop talking about Jesus? Many Christians today, especially in America, are putting safety as a higher priority than accomplishing their mission. Are you making an impact in the world around you?  Or are you sitting safely on the sideline?
