Ep 39: Fake Courage

Video
Men’s Alliance

The Spartan army didn't need to motivate themselves before battle by screaming or banging their swords against their shields. They were steady, calm, and quiet. Their confidence came from their training. They were more prepared for war than their opponent, and they knew it.  We need to be just as prepared, steady, and confident when it comes to spiritual warfare. Men's Alliance provides the training necessary to take us from being amateur fighters to being spiritual Spartans! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
