Do you feel overwhelmed, but continue to say yes to everything and everyone? As we get back to life as "Normal" there are going to be alot more opportunities to say Yes to the wrong things. How and when do we say No? And when do we say Yes? We have to have a mission, goals, or creed we follow to know when to say No and when to say Yes. No is a decision but yes is a responsibility --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) – We all struggle with fear. Whether that’s fear of failure, fear of losing something we hold dear, fear of not starting something, or fear of the unknown. Most fear resides in our head when we doubt ourselves. That allows Satan to open the door wider and whisper more lies to us causing more FUD. FUD will come and go. It’s a combination of being stuck in our heads and lies from the enemy. Bring God into your struggles with FUD. Further your relationship by opening the door to the Lord, wait for the Holy Spirit to move with you, and then watch Satan's door close. · What fears are you now struggling with? · What fears do you need help letting go that prayer, family and friends, Men's Alliance or Church staff can help with? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Men’s Alliance
Banzai reflects on pivotal decisions that significantly impacted both his business and personal life. He shares how starting his own business and niching down were crucial for his career, while moving from New York to California and homeschooling his children gave him valuable time back. He also discusses the influence of Men's Alliance on his life, which helped him strengthen his faith, create friendships, and find a sense of community. He now focuses on giving back to this network as he steps away from the financial world. Banzai also shares his journey from joining a men's group three and a half years ago to starting his own tribe, Coastal Tribe, in Virginia. He emphasizes the importance of connecting with others who have faced similar challenges and encourages those feeling stressed, especially those in their 30s, to seek out such connections. The hosts discuss the importance of connection and how many people feel isolated in their struggles. They also reflect on their personal journeys of deepening their Christian faith and understanding the Bible.

There are two reasons a person doesn’t follow orders. Either they don’t have the will or they don’t have the skill. We have been given a direct order in the great commission which orders us to go and make disciples (Matthew 28). Men’s Alliance trains Barbarian Ambassadors through Carry the Fire to: solidify their will and gain the skills needed by teaching a rugged and practical course on apologetics.
