Ep 92: Brotherhood w/ Connor Dillingham

Video
Men’s Alliance

Brotherhood is much different than a casual buddy that you watch a  football game with.  Who are your real brothers? A brother is there for you in the tough times, and shares common purpose. You  can rely on him and turn to him when you need him most.  This makes the  good times even better! We  all need true brothers to share life with.  As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. King Solomon was on to something there!! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
