    026: I Called Out Weak Men... Starting With Myself | A CruciFit Sermon Review

    In this episode we sit down with returning guest Guy Duplatier to watch, review, and break down Aaron's very first sermon, delivered at our church's men's ministry. The message wasn't aimed at pointing fingers—ibut to highlight where we all need to be better as men. We dive deeper into what it means to repent of weakness, stop taking the Lord's name in vain through the way we live, and ask a confronting question most Christians never consider: How does the enemy see you? Along the way we unpack the heart behind the message, the conversations that led up to it, and why strong men are essential for building strong families, strong churches, strong communities, and ultimately strong nations. This isn't just a sermon review—it's an honest conversation about biblical masculinity, personal responsibility, obedience, and the uncomfortable truths that many of us need to hear.

    019: Easter Baptism: Crystal's Testimony of Hope and Transformation

    Crystal’s story is a real one — not polished, not perfect, but marked by moments where it’s hard to deny God was right in the middle of it. In this episode, she opens up about what it looked like to reconnect with her faith after drifting, and how certain moments in her life — looking back — clearly carried God’s protection and guidance. That journey ultimately led her to make a bold decision: getting baptized on Easter Sunday — not out of obligation, but from a place of conviction. We also get into what prayer actually became for her. Not routine, not religion — but something real. Something that started to shift how she walks through challenges, uncertainty, and change. Crystal doesn’t try to oversell anything. She just tells the truth — and in doing that, you start to see what it looks like when faith moves from something you know about… to something you actually live. If you’ve ever felt the pull back toward God, questioned where He is in your story, or wondered if any of this is real — this episode is going to land.
