How many of us struggle with trust? I know I do. Sometimes you just have to persevere. But it can still be hard to believe what you cannot see. Trust is something I have to work on daily.

#138: Every Man’s Bible with Tony Dungy

“The great thing about integrity is that it is truly no respecter of position or wealth or race or gender. It is not determined by shifting circumstances, cultural dynamics, or what you’ve previously achieved. From the moment you are born, you –and you alone-determine whether you will be a person of integrity. Integrity does not come in degrees-low, medium, or high. You either have integrity or you don’t.” This was the commentary given in Every Man’s Bible by the co-founder of All Pro Dad and...

#136: 5 Ways to Break Free from the Pornography Trap

Pornography is a beast that kills – kills the soul and ravages relationships. No one is immune to pornography. Everywhere you turn, it’s becoming more and more available. At the same time, men are becoming less and less aware of its harmful nature and its lasting impacts. It’s an addiction that squelches intimacy. Intimacy takes an investment of time and energy, while pornography is a way to manufacture cheap, fleeting thrills instantaneously. Those manufactured feelings begin to replace actu...

My husband and I really enjoy your podcast. We found you last year and binged the episodes. It was during a very trying time in our lives and we found comfort in your words. Certainly hope you start posting again soon.

Not mere theory, but provides practical applications to being a better man, husband, father, and person of faith. This empowers manhood and perineal strength of “manliness,” creating potential for remarkable legacy. Discovered this podcast after reading Merrill’s book “All Pro Dad” which I received as a free gift from a recent All Pro Dad event with Jacksonville Jaguars. Thanks Mark and Susan.
Excellent Resource!!!
