Ep 93: Fear Uncertainty and Doubt w/ Berek Dostie

Video
Men’s Alliance

Fear,  Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) – We all struggle with fear.  Whether that’s fear of failure, fear of losing something we hold dear, fear of not starting something, or fear of the unknown. Most fear resides in our head when we doubt ourselves. That allows Satan to open the door wider and whisper more lies to us causing more FUD. FUD will come and go. It’s a combination of being stuck in our heads and  lies from the enemy. Bring God into your struggles with FUD. Further  your relationship by opening the door to the Lord, wait for the Holy Spirit to move with you, and then watch Satan's door close. · What fears are you now struggling with? · What fears do you need help letting go that prayer, family and friends, Men's Alliance or Church staff can help with? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Men’s Alliance

We cannot be the light of the world if we do not go into the darkness. As Christians we need to go out into the world and share the good news. However we must always keep our eyes focused on God to avoid getting sidelined by the prevailing culture.

Mission Briefing 47: Cowboys and Indians - Crazy Horse, Custer, and the Power of a Tribe

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose shares the story of Crazy Horse and General Custer, and teaches us a powerful lesson about the significance of community and collaboration. Strength lies in unity: History shows that teams, or "tribes", achieve greatness through collective efforts rather than isolated endeavors. This principle transcends military contexts; it applies to our personal lives as well. Embracing the support of a strong community or a band of brothers can propel individuals toward success against the odds that life throws at us. Establishing meaningful and consistent connections within a God-fearing tribe is essential for overcoming life's battles. Let's recognize that isolation is terminal and seek connection for a stronger future with our brotherhood of Christian men.
