    MOVIE: The Forge - It Takes a Man to Make a Man

    Guests: Mike Thornberry, Stephen Bryan, Aaron Ulmer, and Chris Housewright   We recorded this podcast to use for our parent podcast at the school, which also has a video element, so if you’d like to watch this podcast, check out the PCA YouTube page.   The Forge is the latest movie from the incredible Christian movie producers the Kendrick Brothers (Alex, Stephen, and Shannon), who brought Facing the Giants, Fireproof, Courageous, and War Room to the big screens. This new movie is about the process of making a man - and it’s a powerful story of prayer, forgiveness, redemption, and salvation!    The Forge opens in theaters across the country on Friday, August 23, 2024.   In the movie, Joshua Moore (older man, business owner) asks a younger Isaiah some important questions that cause Isaiah to pause and evaluate his life and future - here are those questions:   5 years from now, where do you want to be? What ways do you want to grow in the next year? What kind of man do you want to be? What do you want people to think when they see you coming?   The Forge isn’t a “self-help” movie about making better decisions - Isaiah surrenders his life to Christ and as he begins to follow Jesus, his life and decisions are radically changed! The Forge also highlights the importance of walking in community - surrounded by others to hold us accountable and encourage us on our journey!   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

    BOOK: Make Your Bed by Admiral William H. McRaven (Session 3 of 3)

    Guests: Gabe Boyd and Mike Thornberry   Chapter 7 Stand Up to the Bullies   If you want to change the world…don’t back down from the sharks.   Chapter 8 Rise to the Occasion   If you want to change the world…be your very best in the darkest moments.   No matter how dark it gets, you must complete the mission. Mission above the man - Jim Eliot - he is no fool to give up that which he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.   Chapter 9 Give People Hope   If you want to change the world…start singing when you’re up to your neck in mud.   The power of one person to unite the group, the power of one person to inspire those around him, to give them hope.   Hope is the most powerful force in the universe.   Chapter 10 Never, Ever Quit!   If you want to change the world…don’t ever, ever ring the bell.   If you fill your days with pity, sorrowful for the way you have been treated, bemoaning your lot in life, blaming your circumstances on someone or something else, then life will be long and hard. If, on the other hand, you refuse to give up on your dreams, stand tall and strong against the odds–then life will be what you make of it–and you can make it great. Never, ever, ring the bell!   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

    BOOK: Make Your Bed by Admiral William H. McRaven (Session 2 of 3)

    Guests: Gabe Boyd and Mike Thornberry   Chapter 4 Life’s Not Fair - Drive On!   If you want to change the world…get over being a sugar cookie and keep moving forward…   Dan - we live in a fallen world, sin has corrupted everything, we should expect unfairness… Jesus was the only perfect person - and look how the world treated him - unfairly…we should expect the same…   Those that strived to be the very best expected that they would be rewarded for their stellar performance.   Chapter 5 Failure Can Make You Stronger   If you want to change the world…don’t be afraid of The Circus   The Circus, which had started as a punishment for failure, was making us stronger, faster, and more confident in the water. Marc and I were determined not to allow The Circus to beat us.   You will pay for your failures. But, if you persevere, if you let those failures teach you and strengthen you, then you will be prepared to handle life’s toughest moments.   I realized that the past failures had strengthened me, taught me that no one is immune from mistakes.   Chapter 6 You Must Dare Greatly   If you want to change the world…slide down the obstacle headfirst.   Those who live in fear of failure, or hardship, or embarrassment will never achieve their potential.   T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.
