Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

In this raw conversation - Goose and Sunshine talk frankly about men’s depression and anxiety—the “black dog,” the heavy-blanket days, the pride that fuels isolation—and the simple, proven actions that bring hope back: say it out loud, call a brother, pray the name of Jesus, lift heavy, get in the woods, show up anyway.

How to Respond to ICE

Video
Men’s Alliance

With ICE deportations back in the news, many Christians feel torn between compassion and obedience to the law. Are we supposed to resist law enforcement? Is interfering with arrests loving our neighbor? In this episode, we walk through Romans 13 and biblical examples of civil disobedience to clarify when Christians are called to obey authorities—and when they are called to resist unjust laws. This is a grounded, biblical response to the emotional chaos surrounding immigration, deportations, and law enforcement.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

Understand Your First Amendment Rights as Christians | Tyson Langhofer - Alliance Defending Freedom

Video
Men’s Alliance

Tyson breaks down what’s happening across K–12 schools, college campuses, and even workplaces — where speech, faith, and basic reality are being pressured, chilled, or outright censored. We talk about how these conflicts actually start (often not “top-down”), why the loud minority can steer policy, and how dads can lead with wisdom, courage, and truth.You’ll also hear practical ways to engage without rage, how to train yourself to speak with clarity (1 Peter 3:15), and why showing up matters: “Uniformity of thought breeds intolerance of disagreement.”If you’re a father, a teacher, a student, or a man trying to stay faithful in a shifting culture — this one’s for you.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
