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 54: Memory Serves w/ David Noel

Video
Men’s Alliance

Tribe Delta celebrates 1 year! Its easier than ever to read scripture, books are everywhere, you can listen to it, it’s on your phone, and even on your watch. Are you just reading or memorizing the scripture, taking it in, and living it out?  We need to write the scripture in our hearts to make us the men God created us to be. This allows us to be changed through scripture, understand the wisdom, dwell on the wisdom, and impart the wisdom when we and others need wisdom. Memorize and reflect on the verses below: The 12 Men’s Alliance Memory Verses Lead your family in learning one each month. Romans 3:23 – For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 6:23 – For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 5:8 – But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 10:9 – If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:13 – Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. John 3:16 – For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Col 1:15 – The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. Eph 2:8-9 – For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. John 14:6 – Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Acts 4:12 – Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. John 16:33 – I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. Heb 12:1-2 – Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Ep 51: Weirdo Christians

Video
Men’s Alliance

Did you grow up in a weird, cringy church like I did?  Maybe you think that if you don't hand out gospel tracts on the street corner or enjoy singing old hymns then you're not a "good Christian."   I'm hear to tell you that being a Christian has nothing to do with any of that, and that you can be as badass as you want to be and still be a follower of Christ!

Europe Is Losing Its Faith… Meet the Man Fighting Back in Hungary ft. "Pro"

Video
Men’s Alliance

What happens when a simple idea—men working out around a fire and following Christ—jumps across the ocean into post-Soviet Europe?In this episode, we sit down with Pro from Braveheart Tribe in Budapest, Hungary to talk about how Men’s Alliance has taken root in Europe and why Hungary might become a hub for Christian men’s ministry.Pro shares his story of growing up in the Netherlands, moving to Central Europe after the Iron Curtain fell, meeting his wife in Hungary, and slowly moving from career-first to ministry-first. We dig into: • The difference between Western Europe and Central Europe when it comes to faith • Why Hungary is still largely Christian while other European nations are turning secular • The rise of Islam in Europe and why we must train ambassadors for Christ • How Braveheart Tribe launched in Budapest and what MA looks like in an urban European context • Why hard workouts, cold weather, and real discomfort are essential for discipling men • How Carry the Fire apologetics training is preparing men to share and defend their faithYou’ll hear how God used a doctor who had been in a Men’s Alliance tribe in Alaska… moved him to Budapest… and then used that connection to help launch multiple tribes in Hungary—including Braveheart and a neighboring tribe led by “Blade Runner.”If you’ve ever wondered what God is doing among men outside the U.S., or how to reach a culture that’s forgotten its Christian roots, this conversation will fire you up and give you a bigger vision for Men’s Alliance.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
