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.

Ep 85: The Worst Thing You Can Do

Video
Men’s Alliance

Theodore Roosevelt said, "The worst thing you can do is nothing," and I completely agree. Whether it's working out, having a daily devotion, or leading your family spiritually, it's better to do SOMETHING than to sit on the sidelines doing nothing because you don't have time to create a five-star production. We don't have to be perfect in order to lead workouts and devotions at Men's Alliance. We just have to be willing to get off the sideline. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mensalliancetribe/support
