Ep. 206: Being a Sheepdog - Dave Grossman's Secret to Being a Warrior and Gentle Leader at Home!

Video
Men’s Alliance

Dave Grossman, a retired Lieutenant Colonel, renowned author, and speaker, shares his insights on spiritual warfare, the "sheepdog" analogy, and the critical role of sleep in maintaining resilience. Through his experiences and teachings, he brings attention to how men can embody both protectors and caregivers, fostering a balanced and loving environment in their homes while being ready to respond to threats. Grossman encourages men to channel their inner sheepdog: - Self-control is key. Losing your temper is akin to losing bodily control—there is never an appropriate moment for it. - Men are encouraged to switch from protector mode (sheepdog) to nurturing mode (family dog), embodying gentleness and patience at home. Ultimately, Grossman's insights provide a comprehensive framework for men to balance their roles as protectors and nurturers. By fostering self-control, engaging in spiritual warfare, and prioritizing sleep, they can become effective sheepdogs for their families and communities. The transformation into both a gentle caregiver and a resolute protector is not just possible but essential in building strong families and resilient communities.

Ep 98: Marathon Mentality

Video
Men’s Alliance

In a marathon, when you can't run any more, you walk for a while, but you don't throw in the towel and quit. This same lesson can be applied to everything we do in life. There's nothing wrong with taking a rest in order to recharge and then getting back into the game.  Don't be a man who gives up entirely when all that was needed was a season of rest. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Tyson breaks down what’s happening across K–12 schools, college campuses, and even workplaces — where speech, faith, and basic reality are being pressured, chilled, or outright censored. We talk about how these conflicts actually start (often not “top-down”), why the loud minority can steer policy, and how dads can lead with wisdom, courage, and truth.You’ll also hear practical ways to engage without rage, how to train yourself to speak with clarity (1 Peter 3:15), and why showing up matters: “Uniformity of thought breeds intolerance of disagreement.”If you’re a father, a teacher, a student, or a man trying to stay faithful in a shifting culture — this one’s for you.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
