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."

Ep. 198: The Roles of Men and Women in a Healthy Marriage the Way God Intended ft. Kay C. James

Video
Men’s Alliance

Kay C. James is a conservative leader and former President of the Heritage Foundation. She has held key roles in government, including Director of the Office of Personnel Management under President George W. Bush. Known for her work on healthcare, welfare reform, and education, James is also an advocate for limited government, free markets, and traditional family values. In this episode, Kay shares her "controversial" (in today's society) views on the roles in a marriage and a family, the duties of a husband and wife, and what marriage should look like when we are cherishing it and experiencing it the way God intended. This was a great conversation with a lot of great eye opening moments for both men and women, with the overall takeaway being how much work it takes to have a long, happy, healthy marriage like Kay of 50+ years.

Ep 74: What is Friendship? w/ Corey Hence

Video
Men’s Alliance

What does friendship mean to you? Where have you found friends in the past? As we get older should we continue to try and relive old friendship experiences or go in new directions as we grow in our faith journey? What is a Biblical friendship, and how can we cultivate Biblical friendships that are more connected and fulfilling then regular friendships?  It is important to surround ourselves with the right group of friends that help build us up and not pull us back.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
