    Jonathan Karlsson: Breaking p*rn addiction, Gaming addiction, Recreation a religious duty | EP 7

    In this episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I’m having a conversation with Jonathan Karlsson. Jonathan is a pastor, church planter, father, but most relevant for this episode, he too has struggled with addictions to pornography and gaming. These addictions are very prevalent in our Western society, especially among men. I know that many men want to break free from their porn addiction, but feel stuck. That’s why we will be talking about practical action steps that have helped us that you can directly implement in your life to start gaining victories. Typically we don’t hear so much talk about gaming, because it’s often accepted in Christian circles. But is this right? Especially in our pursuit to learn to live as holy men, can gaming be a part of that? With this industry making more money than the music and movie industry combined, and its rapidly growing influence, it’s a conversation worth having. This launches us into a broader topic of different sorts of entertainment and amusement. What are some principles that we should consider when playing video games, engage in pleasure seeking, and how we spend our time. 1:12 - "Bad porn is only bad for you if you let it be" 6:09 - Evolution vs creation arguments converted me 13:25 - How Jesus spoke against watching porn 16:16 - Not watching porn is a joke 24:09 - Betting to lose virginity before 20 28:00 - Porn part of identity 32:26 - Increased sexual appetite can destroy relationships 39:11 - Action steps to break free from porn addiction 50:52 - You are not your sin 57:09 - Gaming addiction & World of Warcraft 1:06:09 - Resting is a religious duty 1:09:25 - Principles for amusement 1:20:33 - The best recreation / amusement we can engage in 1:28:10 - 3 best replacements for addictions 1:36:32 - Sevvie Zone: The danger of overworking (for God)

    Adrian K. Bjerkan: The "Angry God" of the Old Testament, Canaanites & Genocides, Our Right to Life | EP 6

    In this episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I’m having a conversation with Adrian Karlsson. I once heard him preach a sermon about this topic and I knew, I need to invite him for this episode. Working as a X-ray technician, he is used to needing to see through things to see what’s behind the superficial layer. And in our conversation we’re doing exactly that. Many see Jesus in the New Testament as a God of compassion and love. But the Old Testament seems to portray a very different God, one that threatens, is angry, has people killed. While atheists and non-believers use those portions of the Bible to attack Christianity, many Christians prefer to ignore these parts. But once we see through the superficial layer, with some principles that we’ll talk about, we can begin to understand even the most difficult stories in the Old Testament, and reconcile the, seemingly, two different Gods. We’re touching on many topics such as why there is evil in the world, the concept of having a right to live, and how struggling and having questions with all this is a sign of growth. 1:24 - Loving God vs Liking God 8:48 - Reclaiming the Old Testament 15:30 - Jesus is the God of the Old Testament? 24:13 - What is God truly like? 29:53 - God's "harshness" in the Old Testament explained (Canananites, Achan, etc) 38:40 - Do we have a right to life? 46:07 - The loving way God treats unbelievers 54:02 - How to respond to unbeliever's questions / accusations 58:36 - What alternatives does God have to fight the devil & sin? 1:09:07 - Practical tips to interpret "troubling" verses / stories 1:11:25 - Literature recommendations 1:14:09 - How you see God will shape everything in your life 1:22:18 - Sevvie Zone: Pharisees did everything right, but hated God

    Tommy Berglund: Biblical masculinity, LGBTQIA+, Post-modernism | Ep 5

    In this episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I’m having a conversation with Tommy Berglund. Tommy is an elder, he’s a preacher, a car mechanic and overall handyman and at the time of recording this episode, he just became a grand father. We are discussing an incredibly important topic today and that is Biblical masculinity and identity. How can we live as men of God, and what does that even look like in our time. We cannot talk about this topic without touching on feminism, the LGBTQIA+ movement and the Western attacks on the Biblical gender roles. Controversial and sensitive topics, it feels like a landmine. But I believe this conversation will help us better understand God’s calling for us as men and leaders today. 0:59 - Fatherhood made me understand manhood 4:59 - From rally driver to converted Christian 20:35 - Post-modernism is removing the standards for safety 28:16 - The spiritual war behind post-modernism 38:09 - The man is the "houseband" 41:45 - Gender dysphoria & feelings over truth 48:11 - Biblical gender roles 1:01:49 - Toxic masculinity, gender identity, John Money 1:12:54 - How to start living as a man of God 1:22:16 - How do we respond to our confused culture? 1:29:13 - Sevvie Zone: Allow God to change you

    How can common Christians live holy lives? 3 Habits for Holiness - Cedric Gourmaud | Ep 4

    In this episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I’m having a conversation with Cedric Gourmaud. Cedric is a humble French guy married to a Norwegian girl, he’s an engineer, and now works as a sales person for a secular company. Cedric is like most of us. But he is doing some things in his Christian life that we should pay attention to. There’s three habits that touch on topics like media, discipline and giving Bible studies. When you implement these three habits, you will elevate your Christian experience, and take some big steps forward in your journey to learn to live as a holy man in a Western culture. But before we get to that, we’re discussing the idea of holiness. What is that, can we achieve it as ordinary Christian men, and why is it important? 00:58 - Why the Holy Men Club's logo is a bow tie 03:45 - Holiness the universal standard 10:31 - How mindset affects the pursuit of holiness 21:42 - Being tormented by seeing the evil in the world 25:58 - The influence of music on feelings 41:54 - Striving for the highest standards 46:56 - Habit 1: Filter what you let into your mind 1:12:16 - Habit 2: Discipline, communication with God isn't easy 1:30:19 - How to stay disciplined in spiritual growth 1:39:54 - Habit 3: Act on what you learn and know 2:05:43 - Sevvie Zone: Question why you believe what you believe, Make holiness urgent and common

    Wholistic health & habits, the Law of Life, Blue Zones, Worldly vs Kingdom mindset - Dr. Fredrik Kozma | Ep3

    In this episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I’m having a conversation with Dr. Fredrik Kozma. Fredrik actually rather calls himself a Bible worker than a doctor, which is exactly why he is the perfect person to have this conversation with. We start of by talking about personal priorities and ambitions, the pursuit of a secular career. Having a worldly mindset versus a Kingdom mindset. And of course, we’ll be talking a lot about sickness, habits, and 8 practical action steps anyone should implement to better health. And not just physical health, but mental health and as is often forgotten, spiritual health. We’re talking about how these are more interconnected than we may think, in a concept called ‘the law of life’. 00:00 - In this episode 00:57 - Why Fredrik became a doctor 08:05 - Traditional vs Lifestyle medicine, Spiritual health 35:05 - Having a Worldly vs Kingdom mindset 46:17 - Nature's Laws of Health 52:07 - Connection physical & spiritual health, Body is not our own 1:03:22 - What causes disease & sickness? 1:05:38 - Science of sleep, blue light, caffeine, exercise + tips 1:22:54 - Plant-based diet vs meat, risks cardio-vascular disease, snacking, sugar 1:40:38 - Water vs sodas, coffee, alcohol, tips drinking enough 2:01:20 - Overview daily lifestyle habits for health, blue zones, NEW START 2:08:55 - The power of the mind / thoughts, spiritual health & the Law of Life 2:47:37 - Practical actions steps to improve your health 3:00:50 - Recommended health literature 3:04:59 - Sevvie Zone: The Law of Life, relevance of the health message, what if healing doesn't come 3:18:12 - The Bow Tie ceremony

    Pastor: Israel-Hamas war from a Christian perspective, Bible prophecy, Elon Musk, Dealing w/ enemies - Daniel Pel | Ep 1

    In the very first episode of the Holy Men Club podcast I am having a conversation with my friend Daniel Pel. He is a pastor, evangelist, international speaker, author, with a special interest in the Biblical prophecies. In this episode we will be talking about the war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas. Not so much the details of all the events, but how we as holy men are to relate to it. We’ll be talking about both sides in this conflict, the Biblical role of Israel in today’s world and end times prophecies, and how peace can be achieved in this region of the world. But we’ll also bring the conversation closer to home, and discuss some very practical lessons that we can implement in our lives today, both in how we’re dealing with our enemies, as well as how we can be a force for good and peace. 00:00 - In this episode 01:02 - Daniel was in Israel days before the war 09:10 - How the Israel-Hamas war polarized our culture 15:04 - A political vs Biblical perspective 23:44 - Israel's role in the Bible & prophecy 39:45 - Jesus the Messiah is the New Israel 51:51 - The Christian church replaces Israel's role 1:18:41 - Should Christians take sides in the Israel-Hamas war? 1:23:49 - Our responsibility being the New Israel 1:30:00 - Elon Musk promotes the Biblical method to deal with enemies 1:38:33 - The Sevvie Zone 1:52:00 - The bow tie appeal & picture time
