    #198 - Joby Martin // Man's Original Design and Sin's Devastating Impact

    God's original design for men included three key areas to bring Him glory: a will to obey, work to enjoy, and a woman to love. Sin broke this design when Adam failed to protect Eve from the serpent's deception, introducing rebellion and religion as two ways humans reject God. • Sin affected all three areas of God's design: our will to obey (struggling with sin), our work (thorns and thistles), and our relationships (conflict with our wives) • The solution isn't to "man up" but to "bend our knee and look up" to Jesus • Genesis 3 contains the first gospel promise—the coming "serpent crusher" who would defeat evil • Adam and Eve made coverings of fig leaves (religion), but God provided garments of skin (grace) • The first blood shed in human history pointed to Christ's sacrifice as the perfect covering for sin • At the cross, we see both perfect justice (sin punished) and perfect grace (Christ taking our place) • True masculinity begins with surrendering to Christ, not self-improvement Support the show Want to connect?

    #197 - Joby Martin // Work, Will, and Woman in God's Original Plan

    God gave Adam three things for dominion: work to enjoy, will to obey, and a woman to love, establishing a blueprint for biblical manhood that remains relevant today. • Genesis 2:18 presents the first "not good" in Scripture - man being alone • God created woman as a helper (azer) equal in value but fulfilling a complementary role • Adam named all animals, getting his world in order before receiving Eve • Single men should practice loving relationships with mothers, sisters, and female friends • Men need to have their lives in order before being qualified to receive "one of God's daughters" • Marriage follows God's order: leave parents, cleave to spouse, then become one flesh • Reversing God's design leads to shame in relationships • Sex is like fire - beautiful in its proper context (marriage) but destructive outside it • Men must reject the cultural tendency to commodify women for selfish purposes • Restoration comes through confession, the blood of Jesus, and commitment to love sacrificially Share this podcast to help equip other men for the fight and leave us a five-star rating and review.

    #196 - Joby Martin // When God Gave Man the Will to Choose

    We explore God's intention for man in the garden by examining the second gift God gave Adam: a will to obey, revealing that God values relationship over rules and showing how obedience leads to abundant life rather than restriction. • God's posture before the fall was relationship-focused, not rule-focused • In Genesis 1-3, there were many "thou shalts" but only one "thou shalt not" • The enemy always tries to make us question God's word, work, and worth • Obedience is not simply about right vs. wrong, but about life vs. death • Every time we follow God's way—even when difficult—it leads to life abundant • When we reject God's design for money, sex, and power, it leads to destruction • God gave Adam three things: work to enjoy, will to obey, and a third gift (coming tomorrow) Share this podcast and leave us a five-star rating and review to help equip other men for the fight.

    #195 - Joby Martin // God Created You for Glory, Not Because He Needed You

    The purpose of man is to bring glory to God through work that was designed as a gift to enjoy, not a burden resulting from the fall.  • God created men as image bearers out of an overflow of His love for Himself, not because He was lonely or needed us • After the resurrection, our purpose is fulfilled through the Great Commission and Great Commandment • Adam was created in the wilderness, not in the garden, perhaps explaining why men come alive in outdoor adventures • Work was God's first gift to Adam in the garden - to cultivate and keep it (the cultural mandate) • There is no sacred-secular divide in God's view of work - all vocations can glorify Him • Men are designed to work, not just seek fun or follow passion • "Men are like flatbed trucks - they drive straighter with a heavy load" • We are called to rearrange created things for human flourishing as part of kingdom advancement Thank you for listening to today's episode.

    #194 - Joby Martin // Reclaiming True Manhood

    We explore the biblical foundations of manhood by returning to Genesis 2, examining God's original design for men before cultural distortions changed our understanding. • Announcement of Kyle's upcoming book "Stand Firm and Act Like Men: Becoming the man you were created to be instead of who the world says you are" • Genesis 2 reveals God formed man (Adam) from dust (adamah) and breathed life into him • Unlike other creation that God spoke into existence, He formed man with His hands • God breathed His spirit (ruah) into Adam face-to-face, making this relationship foundational • Men today often achieve worldly success but still feel empty because they're made for relationship with God • Many men exist as the "shell of a male" without receiving God's Spirit • True fulfillment comes from being in right relationship with our Heavenly Father Share this podcast and leave us a five-star rating and review to help equip other men for the fight.
