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!

Listen to full episodeThis week David Eubank from the Free Burma Rangers (FBR) joins the podcast to talk about his missionary calling. David talks about doing justice, but we need to avoid revenge. While not easy, we need to instead correct the injustice with love. FBR respond by getting the news out in war torn areas (Burma, Sudan, Kurdistan, Iraq, and Ukraine) and supplying first aid treatment, while sharing and showing the love of Jesus. There are three rules in FBR: You have to do if for love, You can't run if others can not run (don't be a coward), and Be able to read and write. David shares his harrowing stories of being under fire alongside his family. David discusses how he has learned to allow God to move by praying, here is my request, but if not.
