    DECISION THREE (part 2) - The Men We Need - Week 7

    Are you ambitious about the right things? Trent and Josh continue their discussion of this third decision in Brant Hansen's The Men We Need. Sometimes we need a reminder to define winning and losing God's way, embracing contentment and gratitude in every season. When we're ambitious about the right things, we can take godly pride in "lowly" work, doing everything for God's glory and not finding our identity in our titles and tasks.

    Seeing (Media) as God Sees - A M@M EMP “Field Notes” Episode

    The Men at Magnify are guys who are in the world, but not of it - and that affects the way they think about what they listen to, watch, or enjoy as entertainment. Inside this week’s episode: Join Trent, Josh, and Bryan as they talk about discernment with media. Together, the guys bat around ideas like filters, triaging of the good and bad, and when to turn the device off. They talk about the early days of a gut feeling some may have: ‘I probably shouldn’t be watching this…’ .  They attempt to put to words how they have grown in their nuance of processing what they and their families consume in media. Through it, the team recognizes God’s desire for our hearts, and the media's opportunity to capture attention and cultivate fruit - for good and bad. Their goal is this: help men think biblically about what goes into their minds and hearts and how to lead their families to do the same.
