War Stories 6: Deadheads

This week's War Story features Todd 'Baller' Johnson and his journey. From leaving the church at a young age and finding family with the Grateful Dead, to chasing the next good feeling... and winding up in jail. Listen to Baller's transformation through reading the bible, and finding Men's Alliance. This lead him to take his stories, bumps, and scars to become a stronger leader and man of God. We are not perfect people walking in a straight line, but God takes our stories and turns them into ways to share the word with others. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Are We "Good"?

Video
Men’s Alliance

Are you a good person?That sounds like an easy “yes”… until you take Jesus seriously.In Mark 10:18, Jesus responds: “No one is good except God alone.” That one line exposes something massive: our worldview, our theology, and what we believe about human nature. Are people basically good… or basically fallen?In this episode, we unpack: • What Jesus meant (and didn’t mean) in Mark 10 • Why this verse doesn’t “disprove” Jesus — it challenges the listener • How Romans 3 (and even Psalm 14) doubles down: none righteous, not even one • Why a biblical worldview can’t coexist with the “I’m basically good” narrative • And why the bad news is actually what makes the Gospel good newsThis is also perfectly tied to Men’s Alliance January memory verse: Romans 3:23.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador’s Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

Ep 79: Confidence w/ Connor Dillingham

Video
Men’s Alliance

Men, are you confident? If not, do you ever ask yourself why not?  Where  do you find your source of confidence?  God wants us to be confident and helps us with confidence. Confidence is important for every man! Proverbs 3:26 For the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. Harry Truman said, “Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.” Here are some books for becoming better husbands, fathers, and spiritual leaders and build confidence: https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/bookshelf Looking for other ways to build confidence? Sign up to lead a workout or devotion.  No Men's Alliance near you, then stand up and be the man who starts one. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Why Celebrate Christmas?

Video
Men’s Alliance

Why do we celebrate Christmas every year—especially if you’re not even sure what it’s about?Most famous people are remembered for what they did. Jesus is different. He’s remembered for who He was: God in human form—the Creator stepping into His creation to rescue us. The birth of Jesus wasn’t random tradition. It was the beginning of a rescue mission that leads to the cross… and the resurrection.In this Mission Brief, we unpack why Christmas exists, why the resurrection changed everything, and why the Gospel is the real reason the season matters.Merry Christmas.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador’s Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV
