Are We "Good"?

Video
Men’s Alliance

Are you a good person?That sounds like an easy “yes”… until you take Jesus seriously.In Mark 10:18, Jesus responds: “No one is good except God alone.” That one line exposes something massive: our worldview, our theology, and what we believe about human nature. Are people basically good… or basically fallen?In this episode, we unpack: • What Jesus meant (and didn’t mean) in Mark 10 • Why this verse doesn’t “disprove” Jesus — it challenges the listener • How Romans 3 (and even Psalm 14) doubles down: none righteous, not even one • Why a biblical worldview can’t coexist with the “I’m basically good” narrative • And why the bad news is actually what makes the Gospel good newsThis is also perfectly tied to Men’s Alliance January memory verse: Romans 3:23.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

Our Response to Tragedy

Video
Men’s Alliance

An absolute tragedy in America as Charlie Kirk has gone to be with the Lord. A godly father, husband, and leader that consistently spoke the truth of Jesus to a truth-hating world. Thank you for all the seeds you’ve planted and may God be glorified even in the darkest of times.

Ep 121: Men's Ministry in America

Video
Men’s Alliance

Men's ministry needs to create bonds, if your version of a men's ministry is only a monthly breakfast, that just doesn't cut it. Churches need to step up their game when it comes to connecting with men, and that is where Men's Alliance makes a huge impact.
