Ep 33: Great Expectations w/ Jeff Van Atta

We set expectations on everything: our love life, our job, our bodies, how are family is supposed to act, and even our relationship with God. What expectations have you set that didn't come to fruition, but you still hold on to? What expectations can we place on God and which shouldn't we? What about God's expectation of you? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

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 09: Don't Need Your Wife

Video
Men’s Alliance

When a man depends on his wife to do his cooking and cleaning, he unwittingly creates a dependent, mother-child dynamic that kills sexual intimacy. So do your own laundry and stop playing the role of child. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Biblical Christianity Is Radical to the Lukewarm Christian - Pete Bowell

Video
Men’s Alliance

Lukewarm Christianity has become so common that true biblical faith now seems radical. In this powerful conversation, Pastor Pete Bowell, Goose, and Sheepdog discuss the difference between simply believing and living a life fully fueled with extra oil — ready for the Bridegroom’s arrival. We explore passing the baton of faith, overcoming spiritual laziness, and how showing up for others is the true mark of courage and discipleship. Hear inspiring stories of men who carry the fire of faith even through life’s darkest seasons.👉 Are you carrying enough oil?👇 Comment your thoughts and join the conversation.🔔 Subscribe for more bold Christian leadership discussions.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Order the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador’s Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

Church Authority

Video
Men’s Alliance

This mission brief continues the conversation from last week’s episode: No Head Higher.The point is simple: don’t put any human on a pedestal — not your lead pastor, not your counselor, not your tribe leader, not me. Your authority is God, and Scripture is the standard.But what about “church authority”? That’s where the conversation gets deeper. In the New Testament, leadership is consistently described as plural — elders, leaders, overseers — not a single man running everything. We unpack key passages like: • Hebrews 13:17 (leaders — plural) • 1 Timothy 5:17 (elders — plural) • 1 Peter 5:5 (elders — plural) • 1 Timothy 2:5 (one mediator — Jesus Christ)If your church is built on the biblical blueprint, you should see elder leadership, accountability, and authority rooted in Scripture — not personality, celebrity, or “one guy’s voice.”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

Mission Briefing 48: Every.Single.Week. - Consistency Over Feelings

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose encourages embracing the reality that consistency is challenging but essential. By committing to this practice, whether it be attending the tribe weekly or investing daily in one's relationships, men can overcome the struggle with feelings that may deter them. Every attendance, every action counts and contributes significantly to personal growth and fulfillment. “Feelings should not dictate actions,” and through consistency, one can cultivate a more meaningful and impactful life, achieving more than occasional intense efforts ever could.
