Are We "Good"?

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

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
