Men’s Alliance

In the Air Force we study our charts and mark the high terrain in order to avoid crashing. Yet many men are flying through life unaware of the dangers that can destroy their marriage. If we are to be the husbands and fathers that God designed us to be then we must know the threats that are out there and avoid them at all costs. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Mission Briefing 57: Terrified of Silence? The Truth About What You’re Running From

Video
Men’s Alliance

In a world drowning in noise, some people are terrified of silence—not because it’s empty, but because it forces them to confront their own thoughts. In this powerful reflection, Goose dives into the story of a man who couldn’t bear stillness, a man who filled every moment with sound to escape the weight of his past. But what if silence isn’t the enemy? What if it’s the key to healing? Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still and know that I am God.” Yet, too many of us drown out discomfort with constant busyness. What are we afraid of? What would happen if we sat alone with our thoughts and let God’s presence fill the void? This is an invitation: turn down the noise, be still, and face what’s inside. Because true peace isn’t found in distraction—it’s found in surrender.

Episode 207: Past Mistakes Do NOT Define Your Future ft. Command Sgt. Major Marc Dibernardo

Video
Men’s Alliance

Marc Dibernardo recounts his transformation from a troubled youth in a dysfunctional family to becoming a Command Sergeant Major in the U.S. Army and a committed Christian. His journey into the military was spurred by the events of 9/11, seeking purpose and belonging, where he later encountered a spiritual awakening after watching "Fireproof," leading him to embrace Christianity. This faith not only mended his struggling marriage but also guided him to lead by example in the military by integrating his warrior spirit with his newfound faith. Marc emphasizes the importance of Christian fellowship for personal growth and encourages others, through his story, that with divine guidance, one can overcome past struggles and lead a life of redemption and purpose.
