Ep 25: Tools of the Trade w/ Jeff Van Atta

What is a tool: a device that adds in accomplishing a task.  Or something used in performing an operation or necessary in the practice of a vocation such as a scholars books are his tools. Humans are the only creature who uses tools to create tools. Its important to have the right tools for the job.   But how do you know the right tools to have? How do we develop new tools? What tools can we use to help us grow? Do the old tools you have serve you anymore? Which tools do you need to maintain, and which ones can you get rid of? What tools has God given you?  Are you willing to be the tool in Gods Hand?

Ep 7: Lighthouse Or Shipwreck

Video
Men’s Alliance

We all make mistakes; we all crash into the rocks at some point in our life.  The question is are you going to let that failure sink you to the bottom permanently, or will you illuminate the dangers to help keep others from making the same mistake?  As Christian men, we can't allow our past failures to keep us on the sideline.  Our families still need us to lead them spiritually.  So get back up, dust yourself off, and get back in the game!

Mission Briefing 45: 2 Things You Need, 1 Thing You Don't

Video
Men’s Alliance

You signed up for a cool manly weekend doing burpees and getting yelled at by an ex-Seal? Cool! Love that for you. Will that help you be a spiritual leader and godly example for your family? Not necessarily. There is a short list of things that men need to understand their purpose in this world while getting the support they need from a tribe of God-fearing brothers so they can lead their families in the right direction, and in this Mission Briefing, Goose shares exactly what those things are. Here are the main points: - Every Christian man needs a tribe for support. - Training is essential, not just reading. - Virtual communities are not sufficient. - Practical training is crucial for spiritual leadership. - Weekend experiences do not equate to real growth. - You need to practice to share your faith effectively. - Isolation can lead to crises without support. - Building a tribe should happen before storms hit. - Men's Alliance focuses on real-life applications of faith.

Mission Briefing 41: The Truth About Judgment & Discernment - Most Misinterpreted Topic in The Bible

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose challenges the common misconception that Christians should never judge. Instead, he argues that Matthew 7:1-5 teaches the importance of fair and self-reflective judgment. He emphasizes the need for discernment as Christians, referencing scriptures like Hebrews 5:14, Philippians 1:9-10, and Hebrews 4:12. Discernment is the ability to judge well, and he encourages viewers to use it to distinguish good from evil and test the spirits. Christians are called to judge others by the same standard they want to be judged by, and Goose emphasizes the importance of avoiding hypocritical judgment. Overall, he encourages the use of discernment and good judgment in interpreting scripture and leading spiritually.

Are We "Good"?

Video
Men’s Alliance

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
