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

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.

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.

Ep 146: Free Burma Rangers w/David Eubank

Video
Men’s Alliance

This week David Eubank from the Free Burma Rangers (FBR) joins the podcast to talk about his missionary calling. David talks about doing justice, but we need to avoid revenge. While not easy, we need to instead correct the injustice with love. FBR respond by getting the news out in war torn areas (Burma, Sudan, Kurdistan, Iraq, and Ukraine) and supplying first aid treatment, while sharing and showing the love of Jesus. There are three rules in FBR: You have to do if for love, You can't run if others can not run (don't be a coward), and Be able to read and write. David shares his harrowing stories of being under fire alongside his family. David discusses how he has learned to allow God to move by praying, here is my request, but if not.

How to Reach Men in Your Church (Pastors Need to Hear This)

Video
Men’s Alliance

Goose sits down with Jason “Eagle” Dickinson, a pastor from Albuquerque, New Mexico, whose world was flipped upside down in one moment of Holy Spirit conviction. After witnessing broken families and men drifting spiritually, Eagle cried out to God for a strategy—something REAL that would ignite the hearts of men in his church.Six months later, in a packed conference lobby in Dallas, he saw a booth he’d never heard of: Men’s Alliance. A pull-up bar. A creed on the wall. A few guys with call signs like Goose and Thor slinging coffee and brotherhood. And in that moment, Eagle sensed God whisper: “This is what you’ve been looking for.”He walked straight out of the conference, found Goose in the lobby, and said the words that changed New Mexico:“I’m going home to start a tribe next Saturday.”What happened next is nothing short of supernatural.In this conversation, Goose and Eagle dive into why Men’s Alliance works where other men’s ministries fail—how physical struggle, outdoor fire, authenticity, call signs, and weekly leadership opportunities awaken something inside a man that sitting in a church pew never will.They talk about men breaking free from addictions, pastors finally having a place to “just be a dude,” tribes multiplying, churches becoming healthier, families changing, and why men were designed by God to do hard things—in workouts, in marriage, and in fatherhood.If you’ve ever wondered:How do you actually reach the men in your church? How do you disciple men who don’t open up? How do you build a culture where men step up instead of shrink back?—you are about to hear the answer.This is the New Mexico story.It’s raw. It’s powerful.And it might be the spark your church—or your state—needs next.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
