Men in Kid's Ministry…Is That Weird?

Men in children’s ministry… is that weird??Most churches act like kids’ and youth ministry is “for the ladies.” But what happens when godly men step into kids’ and student ministry on purpose?In this episode, Goose sits down with Warrior, Coach, and Joe McAndrew from LCBC to talk about: • Why it feels weird for men to serve with kids • How the feminization of the church left a gap that men must fill • The power of a present, steady man in a middle school or high school small group • Why you don’t have to teach — you just have to show up and listen • How your past struggles are exactly what some kid needs to hear • What kids today are actually facing: social media, anxiety, school shootings, isolation • How serving with your wife models a godly marriage for both boys and girls • Why deployment after PATCH should include your church’s kids & studentsIf you’ve ever thought:“I’m not a teacher.”“My past is too messy.”“I don’t know what kids are into these days.”…this episode will blow up those excuses.Kids don’t need you to be cool.They don’t need you to know what “skibidi toilet” means.They need you to care, to listen, and to be a solid man of God in the room.👉 If you’re a tribesman wondering where to deploy after PATCH or after your weekly fire, your church’s children’s and student ministry might be your next battlefield.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

Mission Briefing 22: Never Retire!

Video
Men’s Alliance

Don’t Plan to retire, plan for your next mission and make it impactful! God gave you specific time and talents to work towards the kingdom. Poem by Marianne Williamson: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support

Mission Briefing 48: Every.Single.Week. - Consistency Over Feelings

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose encourages embracing the reality that consistency is challenging but essential. By committing to this practice, whether it be attending the tribe weekly or investing daily in one's relationships, men can overcome the struggle with feelings that may deter them. Every attendance, every action counts and contributes significantly to personal growth and fulfillment. “Feelings should not dictate actions,” and through consistency, one can cultivate a more meaningful and impactful life, achieving more than occasional intense efforts ever could.
