How to Run a Business Without It Running You

What would it look like for Christian men to build businesses that strengthen their families, support their churches, and bless their communities? In this episode of Everyday Reformation, Brandon Scroggins and Nick Carter sit down with Jim Bazzell, a faithful husband, grandfather, churchman, and owner of Bazzell Lawn Care. Jim shares how he started with a push mower as a teenager and built a successful local business rooted in hard work, integrity, and trust in God. He explains why Christian men should consider learning a trade, starting businesses, and creating productive work that serves others. You’ll hear practical wisdom on: How to know if you’re cut out to start a business The blessings and challenges of working for yourself Why trades are often a better path than college How to involve your wife and children in productive work Teaching children and grandchildren a biblical work ethic How to run a business without letting it become an idol This conversation is a powerful reminder that faithful men don’t just critique culture—they build something better. “Aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands.” — 1 Thessalonians 4:11 If you’ve ever wondered whether you should start a business, learn a trade, or build a more productive household, this episode will challenge and encourage you.

From Prison to Purpose: How God Builds Men in the Middle of Cultural Collapse

What can one man actually do in a collapsing culture? Most Christians see the corruption, feel the tension, and ask: “What am I supposed to do?” In this episode, we sit down with Bryan Dawson, President and CEO of 1819 News—a man who went from prison to building one of the most influential media platforms in Alabama—to answer that question. This is not theory. This is a real story of: Breaking generational cycles Discovering calling outside the pulpit Standing firm under pressure And building something that actually moves culture If you’re tired of outrage with no direction, this episode will reorient you.

Faithful Men Don’t Sit Out: Why I Stepped Into the Arena

Most men complain about leadership. Few take responsibility for it. In this episode of Everyday Reformation, Brandon turns the table and interviews Nick on his decision to step into the public arena—not as a career move, but as an act of obedience. If Christ is Lord over every sphere—family, church, and civil government—then disengagement isn’t neutrality. It’s abdication. This conversation moves beyond politics as a talking point and presses into a deeper question: What does a faithful man do when he sees disorder around him? We discuss the biblical role of civil authority, why Christians cannot withdraw from cultural responsibility, and how leadership is not found—but built—through faithful households and churches. This episode calls men to move from complaining to building, from passivity to responsibility, and from observation to obedience. You may not be called to run. But you are called to lead somewhere. Start with your household. Engage where God has placed you. Support those who carry weight. And above all—don’t sit out.

Don’t Do This Alone: Why Strong Men Still Collapse

Most men don’t collapse loudly—they drift quietly. In this episode of Everyday Reformation, we confront one of the most dangerous realities facing modern men: isolation disguised as strength. Men know they are responsible before God—but many try to carry that responsibility alone. Others dilute it through passivity. Both are dangerous. This episode lays out a biblical framework for responsibility, brotherhood, and perseverance in obedience. You are responsible before God. But God often preserves you through faithful brothers. 🔑 KEY THEMES Biblical masculinity Christian brotherhood Accountability vs isolation Fighting sin as men Covenant fellowship Masculine responsibility Church-based discipleship Spiritual perseverance Leadership and obedience Men’s discipleship and formation 📖 SCRIPTURE IN THIS EPISODE Ecclesiastes 4:9–12 — Two are better than one James 5:16 — Confess your sins and pray for one another Hebrews 3:12–13 — Exhort one another daily Proverbs 18:1 — Isolation and foolishness Proverbs / 1 Corinthians — Walking with the wise 📣 CALL TO ACTION If this episode exposed something in your life—don’t ignore it. Reach out to another man Start a real conversation Stop living unseen If this strengthened you, share it with a man who needs it. We don’t need more isolated men trying harder. We need faithful men walking in the light together.

Lawlessness Is Not Compassion” - What the Bible Actually Says About Immigration

Illegal immigration is one of the most emotionally charged issues in our culture—but what does the Bible actually say about it? In this episode of Everyday Reformation, we cut through the noise and return to biblical clarity. Instead of reacting to headlines or political narratives, we examine what Scripture teaches about: Authority and government Borders and nations Compassion and justice The role of men in leading their homes The culture tells us that compassion means removing boundaries. Scripture tells us something very different. Lawlessness is not compassion—and true mercy operates within God’s order. We also address some of the most common arguments used today: “Jesus was a refugee” “Love your neighbor means open borders” Emotional appeals driven by what we call weaponized empathy This is not a political episode—it’s a biblical one. And it’s especially for men who are trying to think clearly and lead faithfully in a confused age.

You Don’t Get to Redefine “Christ Is King”

But what happens when even that phrase starts getting labeled, qualified, or treated as suspicious? In this episode, Nick and Pastor Brandon address the recent controversy surrounding comments by Ted Cruz and unpack the deeper issue beneath it: Who gets to define Christian language? This isn’t just about politics. This is about authority. Can truth be abandoned because it’s misused? Should Christians soften their language to avoid association? Are we letting culture—even “friendly” voices—reshape our theology? From Scripture to cultural pressure, from misuse to meaning, this episode confronts a growing problem: 👉 Christians surrendering their words before they’re ever forced to. And it doesn’t stop there. This conversation moves beyond critique and into construction: What should fathers teach their children? How do men lead with clarity instead of hesitation? What does it actually look like to live under Christ’s kingship in the home? Christ is not a private belief. He is a reigning King. And your household will reflect whether you believe that.

Jesus the Moral Teacher? Why the Resurrection Changes Everything

Many people say Jesus was a great moral teacher. They admire His words about love, justice, and compassion—but reject the miracles, the virgin birth, and especially the resurrection. But the Bible does not allow that version of Jesus. In this Easter episode of Everyday Reformation, we confront one of the most common distortions in modern Christianity: 👉 Can Jesus be reduced to a moral teacher? 👉 What happens if the resurrection is not real? 👉 Why does the Apostle Paul say everything collapses without it? Walking through 1 Corinthians 15, we show that Christianity does not survive as a system of ethics if Christ is not raised. It falls apart completely. And if Christ is raised… Then He is not just a teacher to admire— He is the risen Lord to whom every man must bow. This episode calls men to reject passive, sentimental Christianity and live with resurrection clarity, courage, and obedience in their homes. In this episode: Why Christianity begins with a historical event, not moral advice How modern culture reduces Jesus to a safe ethical teacher Why liberal Christianity collapses without the resurrection What 1 Corinthians 15 teaches about faith, sin, and the empty tomb Why calling Jesus a “moral teacher” is actually a reduction of His claims How the resurrection produces steadfast, immovable men Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 15 Call to Action: Read 1 Corinthians 15 with your family this week. Lead your home with resurrection confidence. Live like your King is not in the grave.

Fathers Must Lead the Table | Christ, Passover, and the Fight for Your Home

As Holy Week approaches, many Christians reflect on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ—but few understand the deep biblical roots behind that celebration. In this episode of Everyday Reformation, we sit down with Mark Travers of Turning Hearts Ministries to explore the Passover, the Seder meal, and how these ancient practices reveal the gospel with stunning clarity. From Exodus 12 to the Last Supper, we trace how: The lamb points to Christ The meal forms the family The father leads the telling And the entire structure declares redemption This conversation moves beyond historical insight and presses into practical obedience—especially for fathers. What does it look like to lead your home in remembrance? How do you teach your children about sin and redemption? And why does this matter right now? The Passover wasn’t just a command for Israel. It reveals a pattern that still shapes faithful households today. Turning Hearts Ministries: https://turningheartsministries.com
