Men’s Alliance

As Christians we are called to not only be Ambassadors who represent our King, we are also called to be Barbarians.  A barbarian is someone who does not conform to the prevailing culture of society.  And Romans 12:2 says, "Do not be conformed to this world." Let's be Christian men who are bold ambassadors and barbarians for Jesus Christ. Email [email protected] for your free Ambassador's Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually.

Video
Men’s Alliance

This week Glen Sturtevant joins the show to discuss how men can make an impact in their communities. Glen is a former Virginia state senator who is up for reelection. Glen has also been a part of the Richmond city school board, his day job as a lawyer focuses on military members and the service they have received with the Veterans Affairs department. We need to ignore the headlines of the national politics and focus on our communities, the same way the apostles spread the word of Jesus. This starts at the dinner table and leading your family, and showing how to make hard decisions that are right, but not popular.

Ambassador Training 6: Evidence for Christianity

Men’s Alliance

Even atheist scholars all agree on these minimal facts about Jesus and his disciples. So, the big question is: What is the best explanation for this evidence? If you don't think the answer is Christianity, then you must provide a better explanation for the evidence? Are you willing to follow the evidence wherever it may lead? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
