    Face Your Fears

    Every man has fears. The man who says he doesn't is either lying or not trying anything worth doing. The real question isn't whether you feel fear, it's whether you let fear lead. In today's devotional, we look at God's charge to Joshua on the eve of battle and challenge you to stop numbing your fears through distraction and isolation, and start holding fast to God in spite of them. Verse of the day: "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 NEW TO THE MEN’S MORNING DEVOTIONAL? Welcome! I’m Pastor Steve Alessi.

    No More Excuses

    Are you making excuses, or are you making progress? From the Garden of Eden to today, men have had a habit of deflecting blame instead of owning their role. But real manhood isn't about pointing fingers; it's about standing firm and taking responsibility. In today's devotional, we look at Paul's charge to the men of Corinth and challenge you to stop hiding from the areas of your life you've been avoiding and start leading with ownership. Verse of the day: "Be on your guard, stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong." 1 Corinthians 16:1 Send Us A Message! NEW TO THE MEN’S MORNING DEVOTIONAL?  Welcome!

    The Battle For Identity

    Welcome to the first ever episode of the Men's Morning Devotional!  This podcast is here to help you man up in every way - your faith, your family, and your work - by helping you get into the Word before you face the world.  These daily devotions will be hosted by leaders of the Goodfellas men's ministry of Metro Life Church in Miami, FL, pastored by Steve Alessi. In our church, we believe in raising up strong men who lead their families well and follow Godly principles in their homes, churches and workplaces.  The Men's Morning Devotional will be a partner podcast to My Morning Devotional, a daily devotional podcast led by the ladies of the Alessi family which has reached millions of listeners worldwide.  Every weekday, you’ll hear one of the men in our ministry family share a daily dose of wisdom, which includes a signature verse, devotional, prayer, and “Man-Up” challenge to help you become the man God made you to be.  To start, we’re asking the question - Do you know who you are? The world has a lot to say about what it means to be a man these days. Friends, family, coworkers, even strangers all try to define you. But what does Scripture say about who you really are? In today's devotional, we dive into God's word to see just what He has to say about who you are, and challenge you to become who you were always meant to be. Verse of the day: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" 2 Corinthians 5:17 Send Us A Message!
