Ep 56: The Remnant w/ Connor Dillingham

Video
Men’s Alliance

When did we start believing that God wants to send us to safe places to do easy things? ~ Mark Batterson God has called on some great men over the course of history to do some incredible things. Consider Joshua, Caleb, Abraham, Moses, David, Sampson, and most of all – Jesus. These men didn’t squander opportunity. They rose to the occasion and stood up for God. Are we part of this elite remnant of men? Or are we standing on the sidelines blending in with the crowd? Get your Men's Alliance REMNANT t-shirt here!

Men’s Alliance

In this raw conversation - Goose and Sunshine talk frankly about men’s depression and anxiety—the “black dog,” the heavy-blanket days, the pride that fuels isolation—and the simple, proven actions that bring hope back: say it out loud, call a brother, pray the name of Jesus, lift heavy, get in the woods, show up anyway.

How to Respond to ICE

Video
Men’s Alliance

With ICE deportations back in the news, many Christians feel torn between compassion and obedience to the law. Are we supposed to resist law enforcement? Is interfering with arrests loving our neighbor? In this episode, we walk through Romans 13 and biblical examples of civil disobedience to clarify when Christians are called to obey authorities—and when they are called to resist unjust laws. This is a grounded, biblical response to the emotional chaos surrounding immigration, deportations, and law enforcement.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 22: Never Retire!

Video
Men’s Alliance

Don’t Plan to retire, plan for your next mission and make it impactful! God gave you specific time and talents to work towards the kingdom. Poem by Marianne Williamson: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
