The Man Identity is the podcast dedicated to calling up young men into purposeful manhood which is ultimately found in Jesus Christ and being the Man God created us to be. While much of our present world sets itself against them, our goal is not to merely point a finger at all the problems, but rather to build hope, clarity, and strength into young men today who are desperately searching for purpose.Host, Pastor and Author, Steve Hinton, along with Co-Host Matthias Tinnin, Personal Trainer, Youtuber, and church volunteer, offer a clear voice of hope by facing tough issues head on, throwing down weekly challenges, and having some fun along the way.Because solid manhood isn’t automatic, but a choice, we’re here to walk alongside you and encourage you to live out your authentic identity in being made in the image of God for a purpose larger than you’ve ever imagined possible before.

    A Thankful Man: Building a Daily Habit of Gratitude

    Send us Fan Mail A Thankful Man: Building a Daily Habit of Gratitude | Weekly Coaching Moment What if changing your perspective started with something as simple as writing down four things you're thankful for each day? In this week's Coaching Moment, we explore the power of gratitude and how developing a daily habit of thankfulness can change the way we see our lives, our circumstances, and the people around us. It's easy to focus on what we don't have, what's going wrong, or what we wish were different. But when we intentionally look for things to be grateful for, we begin to recognize the blessings that are already in front of us. Here's the challenge: Every day, write down four things you're thankful for. They don't have to be big or life-changing. It could be your family, a conversation with a friend, a new opportunity, God's provision, or simply another day to grow and become a better man. Over time, this simple practice can help you build a heart of gratitude, develop a healthier perspective, and become more intentional about recognizing the good in your life. As men committed to growth, faith, and becoming who God has called us to be, let's stop taking the blessings in our lives for granted. Your challenge this week: Write down four things you're thankful for every day. At the end of the week, look back at your list and reflect on how your perspective has changed. What are four things you're thankful for today? Share one in the comments and encourage another man to practice gratitude with you.

    Seize the Day: Don’t Miss the Opportunities You May Regret

    Send us Fan Mail Sometimes the opportunity in front of us only comes around once. We can hesitate, make excuses, or convince ourselves there will always be another chance—but sometimes the cost of waiting is something we don't realize until later. In this short episode, we talk about the importance of seizing the day, taking action, and not allowing fear or hesitation to keep us from opportunities that matter. We also talk about the upcoming Marked Men for Christ weekend and extend an invitation to men who may be looking for an opportunity to step away from the noise, invest in themselves, and connect with other men on a deeper level. Don't assume you'll have another chance. Sometimes the moment is now. 👉 If you've been considering taking that next step, this may be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Watch, share, and send this to a man who needs to hear it. https://www.markedmenforchrist.org/
