    Becoming the Man You’re Called to Be - Ty Kelly, Pastor Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

    Ty Kelly joins Built 4 More for a real conversation about faith, family, identity, and what it looks like to lead when life gets heavy. Ty is a Jacksonville local who went from being a baseball phenom where the game became his identity, to building a massive social media platform by making people laugh, and then learning the hard way that attention can’t be the thing that drives you. He opens up about marrying his high school sweetheart, raising three kids, and how God used parenting to make grace real to him, not performance based religion, but a deeper understanding of what it means to be loved by the Father.Ty also shares the most difficult season of their marriage when his wife Haley faced major preventative surgeries due to a genetic cancer risk, and what it required of him as a husband, a dad, and a man who finally had to admit he could not do it on his own. The episode gets into the pressure of social media, the desire to be liked, the reality of being attacked online, and how those moments exposed what he was building his identity on. More than anything, Ty keeps coming back to the same point: the platform most people are praying for is usually already right in front of them, in their home, their marriage, their kids, and their day to day faithfulness. If you’re chasing purpose, wrestling with identity, or trying to become the man God is calling you to be right where you are, this one will hit.

    The Cost of Carrying Responsibility - Dr. Matt Carter, Pastor Joby Martin, and Denny Thompson

    Dr. Matt Carter, pastor, church planter, and now part of the teaching team at The Church of Eleven22, joins Denny Thompson and Pastor Joby Martin for a powerful conversation on what it truly costs to carry responsibility. From discipling Colt McCoy through a Heisman run at Texas to planting one of the fastest growing churches in the country, Matt’s story is one of calling, surrender, and learning the hard way that success always comes with weight. He opens up about his time building The Austin Stone from scratch, the growth, the pressure, and the unseen spiritual toll that comes with leading something big for God. Then he shares the moment everything changed, a 99% heart blockage that forced him to slow down, reevaluate his purpose, and finally let go of being “the guy.” This episode dives deep into the difference between confidence and dependence, between a quarterback’s mindset and a pastor’s calling. Matt and Joby talk about how leadership isn’t about control, it’s about obedience. They break down how to build teams that raise the lid instead of holding it, how to live in rhythms that fill instead of drain, and how to keep your soul healthy when the responsibility feels heavier than you imagined. The conversation turns toward faith, Christmas, and the reminder that even when life doesn’t go as planned, God’s still in control, just like He was when He chose a teenage girl in Nazareth to carry the Savior of the world. If you’ve ever felt the pressure of leading, building, or providing, this episode will hit home. It’s about surrendering your plans, trusting God’s hand in the middle of the unknown, and remembering that real strength is found in dependence, not in doing it all yourself.

  3. What Men Get Wrong About Marriage, Identity, and Calling - Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

    What Men Get Wrong About Marriage, Identity, and Calling - Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

    Denny Thompson and Pastor Joby Martin sit down for a real conversation about football, marriage, leadership, and the identity that holds a man together. They start with the intensity of the college football season and the unexpected storylines from the playoff race, but the episode quickly shifts into the deeper places where most men actually live. Denny opens up about the season when his marriage was essentially over and how God used suffering, honesty, confession, and spiritual clarity to rebuild something stronger than before. Joby unpacks why most marriages break at the level of identity, why men so often focus on what they are not getting instead of who they are becoming, and why the triangle picture of husband wife and Jesus changes everything about how a home functions.They talk about what it means to lead with service, not entitlement, and how gratitude from a wife fuels a man in a way nothing else can. They discuss the spiritual reality that identity comes before activity and why men perform better and love better when they know who they are in Christ. The conversation moves through parenting, family rhythms, homeschooling decisions, work pressure, the myth of balance, and the truth about intensity and rest. Both share stories of failure, growth, and the clarity that comes when you stop fighting for approval and start living from the approval God has already given.This episode is for the man who wants to win at work and at home without losing himself in the process. It is for anyone who has ever felt the pressure to perform, the weight of leadership, or the tension between the grind and the relationships that matter most. It is honest, practical, and rooted in the belief that men are called to more and built for more.
