What does the Bible really say about money and providing for your family?
How can I balance chasing career success with being present as a husband and father?
Why is giving such a struggle, and how can I develop the right attitude toward generosity?

This week on the MOI Podcast, Scott Davis unpacks a powerful truth that could transform your approach to finances, leadership, and family. Are you chasing more money at the cost of deeper priorities?

Why are so many men trapped in isolation and feeling like failures? In this episode, Russ Ewell breaks down why behavior modification fails, how to overcome secret struggles like porn addiction, and how real mentorship changes everything.

Checkout Russ Ewell and all that he's up to 👇
Newsletter: https://deepspirituality.com/the-spiritual-frontier-introduction/
Book: https://deepspirituality.com/book/
Church: https://bacc.cc/team/russ-ewell/

Men of Iron president Ryan Zook sits down with Russ to get into the part of faith nobody preaches: the difference between "religious Christianity" and "spiritual Christianity," why behavior change without heart change just makes you better at managing your bank account, and the day a church program put Russ's son — who has Down syndrome — on a separate field. Russ didn't leave. He built a school, the technology, and inclusive leagues so no other kid would sit out. Then he wrote a book saying the rest of us have God wrong too.

If you're the man who does everything right and still feels like God is disappointed in you, start here.

WHAT WE GET INTO
• Why most men want an older man in their corner — and almost none go looking
• "Religious" vs. "spiritual" Christianity, and how to tell which one you're living
• The real reason behavior change never sticks
• What actual mentorship looks like — including the phone conversation everyone's going to argue about
• Raising sons, inherited patterns, and the fear of becoming your parents
• Formation vs. destruction: what to do with failure
• How one man investing in one man built everything Russ has

The Men of Iron Podcast, a Christian podcast for men, welcomes Pastor Leonard “Tanks” Tanks of Reach City Church in Cleveland, Ohio, for a powerful conversation on redemption, discipleship, men’s ministry, and fitness.

Leonard shares his story of growing up in Cleveland, facing serious charges, encountering God while in jail, and eventually surrendering his life to Jesus. From there, he explains how God used community, prayer, discipleship, and faithful men to transform his life and call him into ministry.

This episode also dives into how Reach City Church is building a disciple-making culture, why men’s ministry has to be more than a quarterly breakfast, and how fitness can become a tool for faithfulness instead of an idol. If you are a pastor, church leader, men’s ministry leader, mentor, or a man looking to grow in your faith, family, fitness, and purpose, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

Men of Iron exists to change a culture one man at a time by equipping men to know God, know their purpose, and thrive in the Core5: faith, family, friends, fitness, and finances.

What is a faith-first peer group and how can it help my leadership?
How can business coaching improve my family, fitness, and finances?
What are the benefits of joining a men's executive coaching or peer group?

This week on the MOI Podcast, we sit down with Tony Galati, Director of Three Summits Coaching by Men of Iron, to dig deep into how men can truly thrive in their faith, family, friendships, fitness, and finances. Tony shares his journey from iron rep to leader of an executive coaching ministry, explaining why Three Summits Coaching is designed for men who want to level up in all areas of life—not just the boardroom, but at home and within.

"Faith first" isn't just a slogan—Tony explains how peer groups and executive coaching sessions are structured to foster vulnerability, accountability, and real results in marriages, parenting, business, and spiritual leadership. Each session includes a practical scorecard on the Core 5 (faith, family, friends, fitness, finances), leadership training from experienced CEOs, and powerful issue processing that helps men identify and conquer their biggest obstacles. Not only do these groups help leaders grow, but every investment made directly supports Men of Iron's broader mission to equip men everywhere.

If you want to find godly friendships, learn to lead with integrity at work and home, or are hungry for growth as a man of faith, you don't want to miss this conversation with Tony.

In this episode of the Men of Iron Podcast, a Christian podcast for men, Tony Galati shares how one small step of obedience through mentorship changed the trajectory of his entire life.

Tony was the very first Men of Iron protégé nearly 20 years ago. At the time, he was sitting in church, hearing about mentorship, and immediately thinking of every reason why it was not for him. He had things in his life he did not want to talk about, a marriage in crisis, and a faith that felt present but not fully surrendered. But after feeling a clear nudge from the Holy Spirit, Tony signed up for mentorship—and was paired with Men of Iron founder Bryan Zeamer.

That one decision led to a life-changing relationship. Tony shares how mentorship helped him grow closer to God, build spiritual discipline, practice vulnerability, and learn the power of accountability. He talks about the morning rhythm that changed his walk with God, the role of a mentor in hard seasons, and why every man needs another man walking with him.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that mentorship does not require perfection. A mentor simply needs to be one season ahead and willing to walk with another man. Tony’s story shows how God can use one relationship to shape a man, impact a family, and influence generations.

If you are a man who feels stuck, disconnected from God, unsure how to grow, or hesitant to ask for help, this episode will challenge you to take one small step forward. Mentorship is not complicated, but it does require humility, consistency, and obedience.

How can mentorship help men grow in leadership and their family roles?
Why do so many men struggle to ask for help or accountability?

The conversation focused on overcoming reluctance, busting myths around asking for help, and the practical steps any man can take to get unstuck and move forward. Zach’s story is a testament to the importance of wise counsel and accountability, whether you’re 18, 28, or beyond.

How can I become a better spiritual leader for my family?
What does it look like to disciple my kids as a busy dad?
How do I balance faith, family, and career as a Christian man?

This week we dive deep into family leadership on the Men of Iron Podcast, as Ryan Zook and his wife Jenny get honest about what discipleship looks like at home.

Hear why prioritizing Jesus, marriage, and children—in that order—is vital for building lasting faith in your home. Ryan shares simple ways to disciple your kids, avoid the damaging habit of being “godly” in public but not at home, and why your story of faith matters more than perfection. Plus, learn from Jenny how investing time intentionally (even just 10 minutes a night) in your children's spiritual formation can lay a foundation for their future.

This conversation is packed with practical tips, honest stories, and encouragement for every man striving to lead his family well. Don’t wait for someone else to disciple your kids—rise to the challenge and become the man God called you to be.

For the first time on record, men are showing up to church at higher rates than women; flipping a 70-year trend. So what's actually happening with young men right now? And what's the play for any guy who wants to stop drifting and start building something that lasts?

In this episode, Ryan Zook sits down with Cayden Lasher, Men of Iron's new Digital Iron Rep, to unpack why every cultural issue traces back to men dropping the ball and what's finally starting to shift and how a generation raised on hookup culture, materialism, and self-help is now publicly rejecting all three.

We answer the questions men are actually asking:

• How can I become a better husband, father, and leader?
• What practical steps can I take to grow in my faith, family, finances, friends, and fitness?
• Where can I find authentic mentorship and accountability as a Christian man?
• How do I follow Jesus when I didn't grow up around it?

What is the most effective way to disciple men and lead your family well? How can pastors and men invest in true spiritual growth instead of just checking the box with events and programs? What can you learn from the story of Elijah to build strength, resolve, and purpose as a man of God?

This week on the MOI Podcast, we welcome Josh Smith, pastor, father of five, and author of "The Man for the Day" and "The Titus 10." Josh shares his journey from starting with ten men and the Book of Titus, to raising up generations of strong, Christ-centered men in his church—and how you can do the same.

“Events are a start, but real transformation happens when we intentionally disciple and invest in men, one life at a time.” Josh reveals the common pitfalls in men’s ministries, sheds light on the power of authentic relationships, and unpacks practical wisdom from Elijah’s life—preparation, direction, righteous resolve, and even embracing weakness. If you’re ready to step up as a husband, father, or leader and make an impact that will outlast your career or accolades, this conversation is your blueprint.

Ready to lead differently? Looking for community and accountability? Men of Iron provides 1-to-1 mentorship, small groups, and proven discipleship tools so you can thrive in faith, family, fitness, friendships, and finances. Start your journey and find your mentor at menofiron.org/contact-us.

What does it take to become a true leader in your family and community?
How do you move from just attending men's groups to making a real, lasting difference?

This week on the Men of Iron Podcast, host Ryan Zook sits down with Bill Hartman for a powerful BONUS episode that dives deep into the heart of authentic masculinity, leadership, and discipleship. Drawing from his years of experience leading men’s groups, mentoring young men, and investing in the next generation, Bill shares his personal journey—from group participant to influential mentor—and how answering God’s call changed his life.

“If we as individual men don’t take the call on our lives seriously and get engaged in a meaningful mission with another guy, we’re missing the mark.”

What does it mean to honor your father, even if you have a difficult relationship?
How can healing your relationship with your dad impact your family and leadership as a man?
What steps can men take to break generational cycles of hurt and be stronger fathers?

This week on the Men of Iron Podcast, we sit down with therapist and consultant Patrick Meese for an honest, powerful conversation about reconciliation, forgiveness, and the critical role of men in families. Patrick shares his moving personal story—from growing up with a fractured relationship with his father to caring for him at the end of his life—and how doing the hard work of honoring your parent can lead to deep healing, freedom from shame, and transformation as a father.

"If I didn't do the work with my father, I don't think I'd be the father that I am today."
Patrick explains how his journey from bitterness and pain to forgiveness allowed him to break generational cycles and become a more tender, present dad for his own five children. Whether you're struggling to connect with your family, looking to overcome past wounds, or taking steps to lead with strength and grace, this episode will challenge and encourage you.

If you're a man who wants to improve your life, your leadership, or your family, Men of Iron is here for you. Reach out for mentorship, join a group, or check out our resources—find the support and brotherhood you need to grow.

This week we wrap up our Generosity Series as we sit down VP of Generosity Josh Henson to talk about what it practically looks like to give and be generous. Jesus said it is more blessed to give than receive. How do we do generosity well and intentionally? It all starts with cultivating a generous heart. It’s important to understand that we have been given resources to meet needsYou may be thinking there are so many organizations and places I can give to, how do I determine where and how much? Start where you are at, what resources has the Lord given you and how can you be generous to others in need?“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-8.Look around and see what needs God has put in front of you. Often generosity is about opportunity, prepare your hearts for these opportunities. If you have a neighbor that is hungry, go feed him. Be generous to those in your circle of influence. Your generosity should be spirit-led“If you the Lord keeps putting a need on your heart, you should be giving there.”Pray about it. Ask the Lord to reveal to you where you should be generous. Be sensitive to that and respond. If you are married, get your wife and kids involved in the process of generosity. Give cheerfully and without compulsion.Generosity is taking something you don’t own and giving it to meet a need that you can’t meet. God ultimately uses generosity as a tool to deepen our faith in Him. Through our generosity we get to be a part of some amazing things God is doing. How much should I be giving? The Lord asks us to give more, wherever you are at, give more. Wherever you are at with your giving, just start.If this podcast has impacted you in a positive way, please take the time to leave us a rating and a reviewIf you are struggling in your role

This week we continue our Generosity Series as we sit down with Men of Iron advocate Corby Ziegler. All this month we are talking about Biblical generosity and what it means to be generous. Corby has been involved with Men of Iron for over 15 years."I remember seeing the difference in men's lives as they went through Men of Iron at my church."Corby started investing financially in Men of Iron over the years and eventually got even more involved. Corby had the opportunity a couple years later to go through an executive mentorship with Men of Iron. Corby knew it was the right time to go to the next level."Before Men of Iron I believe I was a good father and husband, but Men of Iron equipped me to be even better."After going through a Men of Iron mentorship Corby realized the importance of this program for all men, and it led him to become a monthly partner with Men of Iron. Being a monthly partner has provided him a constant commitment to give to a program he believes in. Corby's dream for Men of Iron and his church, is for every man to be mentored or be a mentor. "If we are not pouring into another man's life, or allowing another man to sharpen us, we get pretty stagnant."If this podcast has impacted you in a positive way, please take the time to leave us a rating and a reviewIf you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-us\You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Generosity is simple, it is giving a resource that we have to meet a need. Biblical generosity is all about stewardship. All the resources we can use to be generous, don't come from us, God is the source and owner of all these resources. If we don't understand this it's hard for us to be generous. When we understand all we have is God's we are free to use these resources to do the work of the Lord. It is ultimately a blessing to be a part of the work that God is doing. "A lot of times we don't run out of resources, we run out of faith."We often look at generosity as a switch to turn on or turn off but God says there is an unlimited amount. God says in every situation be generous. "You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God." 2 Corinthians 9:11 (NIV). God wants you to unlock those resources he has given you. As you release your resources to the Lord, you can now focus on where the needs are. Culture says if you want it all go get it, but God says if you want it all you have to give it all.Stay tuned for next week as we continue our Generosity Series with a Men of Iron advocate, and talk to them about why they give.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – https://menofiron.org/contact-usFind out more at https://menofiron.org

Joby Martin is the founder and lead pastor of The Church of Eleven22 (https://coe22.com) in Jacksonville, Florida. In addition to providing The Church of Eleven22 with vision and leadership, Pastor Joby is a national and international preacher and teacher. Joby grew up in South Carolina and spent much of his Sunday mornings hunting and fishing, and not at Sunday service. Joby knew of God but knew nothing of Jesus being the propitiation of his sins. He was at youth camp as a teenager and the counselors reenacted the crucifixion of Jesus, they gave a gospel presentation and a salvation invitation.Check out Joby Martin's new book Stand Firm & Act Like Men (https://www.amazon.com/Stand-Firm-Act-Like-Men/dp/1546008217). Becoming the Man You Were Created to Be Instead of Who the World Says You are.Joby would later go back to that same camp in college, and started preaching. It was at camp that one of the speakers said, "Some of you need to go into full-time vocational ministry," and Joby felt like God was talking to directly to him.So I went and talked to my pastor and he said, "God will always confirm what he calls," and he invited me to be an intern.Joby went on to launch his church in 2012.

Pete grew up in Brooklyn with a single mom, because of a dad who was never present. Pete was a pastor's kid, but his dad was always out doing ministry and never at home. "That's what ministry was for me, my dad was off doing something great, but here we are on food stamps in section eight."Despite his dad being gone, Pete had a lot of amazing men that served as father figures in his life for certain seasons. Because of his relationship with his father Pete still struggles with male relationships. "As I've matured I have realized the benefit of being surrounded by other guys in any capacity." Pete credits the mentors, the father figures, in his life that have walked with him through tough seasons. Acknowledging his dad's flaws is not a criticism; it's allowed Pete to grow as a husband and father. The best thing we can do as men is to allow time and space for vulnerability. Vulnerability does not came naturally for men, but it's vital for growth.

Vinnie grew up in a Christian home but it was a home that felt very legalistic. To Vinnie the Bible felt like "a big book of no." Vinnie saw Christians as hypocrites, there was no love, it was all about rules. At 16 Vinnie wanted to go his own way so he moved to New York City to do comedy, and that's where he met his wife Monica. A couple years later Monica ended up getting cast as Sarah in Abraham as Sarah at Sight and Sound Theatres in Lancaster, PA. Vinnie's hometown. Vinnie was furious, worried that her knew role at Sight and Sound would draw her back towards Christianity. It was during this season at Sight and Sound that Monica rededicated her life to the Lord.On his way to visit Monica in Lancaster, Vinnie was involved in a near-death motorcycle accident. An EMT on the scene told Vinnie, "You need to thank the good Lord you are alive, because He saved your life today." It was after this accident that things started to shift for Vinnie."In my room by myself, I made my peace with God. I said I believe you are who you say you are. I have some issues, especially when it comes to Christian men, but I am reluctantly yours."Vinnie's journey of spiritual growth began when he moved back to Lancaster, PA. "Something changed in that space, and so much had to do with the men that surrounded me. These men represented Jesus and Christianity in a way that was the polar opposite of what he experienced growing up in church. Vinnie would go on to become the children's pastor at Victory Church and eventually was introduced to Men of Iron. Mentorship is iron sharpening iron, it's the clanging of steel, it's not easy. That character is what we are after, but we don't always want to do the hard work to get it. I think pride keeps men from asking for help from other men. Mentorship is all about being a better husband, father and disciple.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – https://menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Lou grew up Catholic, in a great family with great parents. He got away from his faith during his young adult years, until he met his wife Melissa."I thought I had faith through my upbringing but realized I didn't have a relationship with Jesus."Melissa challenged Lou in his faith and had the hard conversations he needed to hear. After one of those hard phone calls, Lou hung up mad, but God spoke to him in that moment. They ended up getting married and got plugged into a local church. Lou credits the people and men he met at Victory Church for changing his life. A good friend of Lou's suggested he go through Men of Iron, that it would be great opportunity to grow in his faith."I've been involved with Men of Iron for 12 years, as a mentor and a protege, it's done so much for me that I can't say thank you enough."Lou wants men to know that it doesn't matter what your struggle is, there is a mentor for you, you need someone to walk through this with you. Men, you will not sit across the table from a perfect person, we are all going through something. A mentor isn't going to tell you what you want to hear, but what you need to hear. Knowing that there are other men out there that can walk the journey with you, it's an amazing thing."It's not just the changes I see that I care about, it's what my wife, my kids and friends see and hearing them say there is something different about him."Men of Iron took this broken guy and put me back together and made me stronger.

For 12 years Garret was the CEO of Men of Iron, leading the organization and building a strong foundation for where Men of Iron is today. Garret grew up in the church and accepted Christ at an early age. At the age of 9, at a Royal Rangers camp, Garret felt the presence of the Holy Spirit for the first time. Responding to an altar call, he heard God say to him, "I'm going to use you in a big way." Despite decades of turmoil and counseling working through the trauma of sexual abuse and molestation at an early age, Garret looks back at this moment at Royal Rangers as instrumental in his faith journey.As a younger sibling, Garret always struggled with feeling like he had to "measure up" to what his siblings had done."That became my mentality with my faith, I have to earn God's respect, I have to earn God's love. I had this warped reality of who God was, that God wasn't my Father, I just had to impress Him."In college is when Garret started to take on his faith as his own. Garret credits a college professor, Doctor Shane Johnson as the first man in his life who showed him what it meant to be a man. "He was harsh, he was firm but it was always the truth." This was a major turning point in Garret's life, that woke him up to the fact that he wasn't living the right way.Mentorship isn't that hard, it's just making yourself available to others, Doc Johnson made himself available to Garret. In 2011, on his honeymoon, Garret felt an overwhelming sense from God that something was going to change. Later in 2011 the Founder of Men of Iron, Garret's brother-in-law Bryan, approached Garret to lead Men of Iron as the CEO. As soon as Garret made this move God anointed him with this passion for men getting it right, and leading their families well.Mentorship changed Garret's life and he wants to provide that to as many men as possible. He believes that mentorship is so vital, because as men we screw it up on our own. "You can find someone that has more knowledge and experience, they've been there and done that." There is so much we can glean from mentorship, but we have to take a posture of humility and say I don't have it figured out but I'm willing to do what it takes. Mentors see something in us that we don't see them in ourselves.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father Support the show

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we wrap up our Faith in Sports Series with Lancaster Stormers Chaplain Josh Beers. Josh grew up in a Christian home with faith at the forefront, but it was sports that he worshipped. "I lived for whatever athletic season I was in. What I was worshipping was temporal, and I was living for the next moment and competition." God got ahold of Josh as a freshman in college, and that's where his faith journey truly began. As Josh gave his life to Jesus he believed that sports would have to go to the back burner, but God had other plans."I began using sports as a platform to point people to Jesus, build character and make disciples." - Josh BeersJosh dives into the importance of mentorship in the sports world and in his own life. "In my own walk I am always looking for that man who is a few years ahead of me and asking them questions so they can sharpen me." In the sports world players have coaches who are teaching them, mentoring them and sharpening them to take it to the next level. Iron sharpening iron is all about what does the next step look like in your journey. Where can you find that man, that mentor to sharpen you? Most men who are struggling to find a mentor are not intentionally pursuing it or are afraid to ask. We all need people in our lives who see things in us that we don't see ourselves. The enemy wants us to be isolated, we need to break through that shell and admit we need help. It's actually a sign of strength to admit that we need a mentor. We are all going through the same battles together, how do we lean into that?If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we continue our Faith in Sports Series with Olympic and World Champion Wrestler Kyle Snyder. In this episode, Kyle shares his incredible journey of wrestling and faith. At a young age Kyle wanted to be an Olympic Champion. Wrestling was everything. Kyle shares how his wrestling career shaped his understanding of God."Through wrestling I found out who God was and who Jesus is." Kyle is a 2016 Olympic Gold Medal winning wrestler. He is the youngest Olympic gold medalist and youngest World Champion in American wrestling history. He was a 3-time NCAA National Champion at Ohio State with a career record of 75-5 and ended his college career as the first and only wrestler to win the NCAA, World and Olympic championships as a collegiate athlete.After moving to the Olympic Training Center as a senior in High School, Kyle started going to Bible studies at the request of coaches and continued attending them as a freshman at Ohio State. Despite his desire to grow in his faith, his identity was still wrapped up in his wrestling accomplishments.A heart breaking loss in the NCAA Finals as a freshman sent Kyle into a state of depression and ultimately led to him surrendering it all to Jesus. This decision changed Kyle's life, allowing him to embrace his God-given abilities fully.Throughout this conversation, Kyle emphasizes the importance of being anchored in God's Word and how his commitment to studying the Bible and finding mentorship continues to strengthen his faith.Kyle concludes by highlighting that our ultimate purpose in life is to know God, grow in His character, serve Him, and teach others about Him.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, wherever you stream your podcasts!

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we continue our Faith in Sports Series with Messiah University Associate Head Soccer Aaron Faro. Aaron grew up in upstate New York with a strong faith foundation and a deep desire to see faith and sports run together. Aaron said that at a young age his identity was wrapped up in his athletic accomplishments."My athletics were not surrendered to God."As an alum of Messiah University, he describes his years at Messiah as some of the most significant years of growth. As his love for Jesus deepened, he watched the Lord reorder his priorities and put faith above sports. It ultimately gave Aaron a deep desire for coaching and helping other athletes recognize this and learn to put Jesus above all else. As Aaron surrendered his life to the Lord, the Lord gave sports back to Aaron in the form of coaching.Your college years are very foundational, and who you surround yourself with is huge. At Messiah University, Aaron wants it to be an environment where men grow, are sharpened, and ultimately grow closer to the Lord. They are constantly talking constantly about the value of relationships and that deep relationships is something we were created for. Being vulnerable, sharing one another's burdens, being real with one another and submitting to accountability. These our not very common practices in our culture, especially for men.Sports is such a powerful tool for connecting with people. It lends itself so well to building deep relationships. When we surrender all things to the Lord he can use them. There is a huge need in our culture for men to be all of who God's created them to be. When men aren't all that God's created them to be there is a huge gap and a huge ripple in every sector of our culture. "When I think of my legacy, I think of the life of Jesus and the way that he poured into people. I want my legacy to be that I helped people move closer to Jesus. The coach in me desires to see them reach their potential and use that to impact others."If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, wherever you stream your podcasts!

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we kick off our Faith in Sports Series with a powerful testimony from Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Cavs Chaplain Nobles Darby IV!! A pastor’s kid who fell from grace. Nobles received a calling into ministry at a young age. He went on to become a D1 athlete with a scholarship to play football at Bowling Green. The loss of his grandfather shortly after sent him into a downward spiral. Which ultimately left him off the team, suspended from school and back home.Battling depression and suicidal thoughts he remembered the words of his grandfather before his death, “You gonna need God to make it through college and life.”In that moment Nobles repented and turned to God, the God of second chances. Nobles went back to school and walked the stage of a 4-year university a couple years later. Which ultimately led him back to the game he loved, but this time as a Chaplain. Now Nobles uses his story to impact professional athletes and the community as a whole.At the early age of 13 he knew that God was calling him into ministry. At a special prayer service led by his grandfather, he was standing in a circle and felt the presence of the Holy Spirit for the first time. An overwhelming sensation and a voice saying "GO!" He walked up to the alter to his grandparents and said, "I want to know what God's will is for my life."Out of fear Nobles ran from his calling, he was terrified of it. But three years later, at only 16, he was ready to accept God's call on his life."My yes to God at 16 ran ahead of my 20 years and is opening up doors now."Nobles now uses his powerful testimony to encourage pro coaches and athletes. Nobles also serves as the FCA Metro Cleveland Director for Cleveland FCA - www.clevelandfca.org"The thing I'm most concerned with, is how do I win at home? It can only come by being sharpened, we all have blind spots and need another man to call those out. The Holy Spirit is our spotter, he sends and puts people in our lives that can see things we can't see. I want to encourage the men I'm around , the athletes and coaches I'm around to leverage their platform of influence to point people to Jesus Christ.""My legacy is a man who had enough faith to take God at his word to watch him do what he did with no expectation other than seeing Jesus be glorified. I just want to see the name of Jesus will be lifted up in sports. God wants us to prioritize a souls over stats mentality. When we as men prioritize the health of our soul God allows everything else to flow from a place of priority because our priority is Him."Get to know Nobles or book him for your next event! – www.noblesdarbyiv.com/homeIf you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, wherever you stream your podcasts!

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we wrap up the Challenges Men Face series with another tough question, "How to find a healthy work-life balance?" When we think about our family and work we desire to find a healthy balance, but often have a hard time actually doing it.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week, in Episode 258 of the Challenges Men Face series, we dive into another tough question, "Is it okay to be angry at God?" Difficult seasons in life often lead us to question God. Why did you let this happen to me? Why am I going through this? When we look at men like Job, we see that God did not condemn Job for being angry at him, he helped Job work through it. Men, it's okay to voice our frustrations with God. Every moment of your life, good or bad, has helped shape who you are today. It's okay to wrestle with God, but we also have to understand God is ultimately in control. Who you turn to at the end of your frustrations is what matters most. Life was never meant to be easy. Jesus warned his disciples that as followers of Christ would come with a cost."If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." John 15:19 (NIV).Our encouragement to you today is to see God in the good or bad. It's okay to be angry with God, voice your frustrations to Him, turn to Him. Surround yourself with those who push you closer to Him, knowing that He has been faithful in the past and will remain so in the future.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week, we continue the Challenges Men Face Series with a crucial discussion on "The Lies Men Believe." From the very beginning, Adam and Eve's relationship with God was derailed by believing a lie from Satan: "Did God really say that? Is that really who God is?" The enemy continues to use deceit to steer us away from God's divine purpose in our lives. These lies hinder our journey with God and lead us astray, preventing us from fulfilling our calling as men.Here are some of the prominent lies that men often fall victim to:"I don't have what it takes.""I need to earn my value from God.""I'll never be as good as that guy.""I can do it by myself."To combat these lies effectively, consider practical steps:#1 - Confront the Lie: Recognize and confront the lie head-on. Don't allow it to take root in your mind unchallenged.#2 - Seek Accountability: Surround yourself with godly men who can identify these lies and help you stay on track with God's truth. #3 - Replace with God's Truth: Replace the lie with the truth of God's Word.#4 - Know Your Identity in Christ: Let this truth define you rather than the lies you hear or believe.#5 - Community: Build a community of godly men who will stand alongside you in life's battles. By actively confronting, correcting, and replacing these lies with God's truth, we can overcome the obstacles that hinder our walk with God and embrace the fullness of our calling as men of God.If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week, we kick off the "Challenges Men Face Series" with a bold and timely conversation: What does it mean to be a man? In Episode 255, we delve into this hot-topic question by contrasting biblical masculinity with modern cultural expectations.At Men of Iron we define a man by what the Bible says. But what does culture say? Men have taken a back seat in today's culture, it's become taboo to invest in men. Men are afraid to lead and stand up for truth. The Bible is clear is in saying that men are suppose to lead the family, lead the church and lead culture.Culture, families, and communities are healthiest when men are healthy and caring for the people they are leading.We are not promoting toxic masculinity, we ARE promoting biblical masculinity. As men our top priority should be to reflect Jesus, what did Jesus do? Jesus was a strong, passionate leader that did some controversial things that we tend to gloss over. Jesus was direct, not afraid to lead and not shy about what His mission was. But at the same time He was gracious, loving, compassionate. It is a healthy and manly thing to be spiritually wise, discerning and to support people when they need supported and confront people when they need confronted. Culturally we have stepped away from the hard things and we see the negative results of it. Fatherlessness in the United States is skyrocketing, men's mental health is at an all-time low, men don't have friends. There are real challenges in the world and we have to address them.What are some practical tips to discovering what it means to be a godly man?#1 - Know God – Strengthen or establish your relationship with God, it all starts here#2 - Read your Bible – Pickup a Bible, learn about the character of God, learn about who Jesus was and what he did#3 - Find godly friends – Surround yourself with men that will teach you about what it means to be a godly man#4 - Get a mentor – Accountability is key, you need another man to hold you accountable and help you growA man that is manly without being godly is dangerous. Go after godliness first and use the gifts and talents God has given you to build the Kingdom. Getting around the right guys is crucial, Jesus put 12 guys around him. Godless culture is going to tell you that you can do it yourself. God has called men to be leaders and that means we have to make tough decisions and stand up for what is right. When you are walking with God you will make the decisions that God wants you to make. When we think about what it means to be a man we have to look at the first man, Adam. While he enjoyed that work he thrived in his relationship with God because he was daily walking with God in his creation. We are created to care for what God entrusted us with we walk with God daily and work together with the people around us. The only way to know how to be a man is to be the man God called you to beIf you are struggling in your role as a husbaSupport the show

Join us for Part 3 of The Wives Restoration Series with Jen Rhoads! A four-part series giving us a glimpse into the lives of 4 different wives and their side of their husband's restoration story.Jen grew up in a conservative religious family, knowing she was loved but never hearing it. She became a Christian at 13, motivated more by the fear of going to hell than a love for God. Marlin experienced a very similar upbringing, they met at a Bible school one summer, and would eventually get married. Early challenges in the marriage arose as they left their home church, stopped attending church altogether, and Marlin started hanging out with the wrong crowd. These unhealthy habits eventually led to Marlin asking Jen to move out.Despite these trials, Jen's unwavering faith carried her. In 2012, after a season of separation, Marlin wanted to get back together but it wouldn't last long. After their daughter was born Jen discovered that Marlin was having an affair and now faced with the pain of a second separation. Through it all, Jen leaned on God, practicing what she calls "benevolent detachment," releasing burdens and trusting in His plan. A turning point came when she felt God promise a shift in their marriage—and in November 2014, Marlin sought to reconcile again.Fast forward to 2020, during another rough patch, Marlin signed up for a one-to-one mentorship with Men of Iron. The mentorship transformed his life. The encouragement and camaraderie from another man helped Marlin grow as a husband, father, and spiritual leader. Today, Jen sees the fruits of this decision—their marriage has stability, their children feel the peace in their home, and Jen has found it easier to trust God.If you are looking to take the next step in your faith journey, let us be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Through her best friend, she met Cesar, and their story began. Despite coming from different ends of the country and different upbringings, their faith in God ultimately drew them together. Their relationship blossomed, with Caesar demonstrating spiritual leadership even while dating. But life wasn’t without challenges. Caesar faced deep loss, and together they endured a difficult season in their marriage. Through prayer and encouragement, Nyasha reminded him of his calling and God’s faithfulness.Men's of Iron's Anchoredman Bootcamp (menofiron.org/product/anchoredman-leaderpack) became a pivotal experience for Caesar, helping him grow spiritually and connect with other men.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn this episode of our Men and the Church series, we talk with Dave Towers from Community Fellowship Church (CFC) in Lancaster, PA. As the leader of men’s ministry at CFC, Dave shares his passion for investing in men, building leadership, and creating opportunities for connection and growth.We explore practical ways to engage men in the church by offering a space for men to have fellowship and deepen relationships. "We don't want to just preach at them, they get that enough, we want to give them a chance to talk and connect with other men." Dave emphasizes the importance of mentorship and how small group events can lead into mentorship opportunities for men."We don't want our men's ministry to grow because the church grows, we want it to be strong enough that it helps the church grow."Men often don't realize how much they need other men in their life. Building a strong men's ministry gives guys an opportunity to find that and recognize the need for community. We want men to be more than just a Sunday morning Christian. As we get guys into mentorships, we don't want their growth to just stay within the church walls. We want to see men being discipled and then going out into their community to make more disciples. By creating opportunities for men to build meaningful relationships, the church becomes a catalyst for transformation—not just within its walls, but in the community and beyond.If you are looking to take the next step in your faith journey, let us be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn this episode of the Men and the Church series, we’re joined by Kevin Wishard from LCBC in Lancaster, PA. Kevin connected with Men of Iron through LCBC's search for impactful small group material and found A Man's Game Plan (https://www.menofiron.org/game-plan). LCBC's city campus has doubled its men's ministry through grassroots efforts, focusing on engaging and connecting with men. As they focus on equipping men, they want them to understand that they are the spiritual leaders of the home, but many men have a hard time seeing this. Helping men understand their responsibility as spiritual leaders positively impacts families and future generations."Some guys don't really believe they are the spiritual leader of their home."We dive into practical strategies for helping men grow spiritually, from setting SMART goals in faith, family, friends, fitness, and finances to building accountability through mentoring. Kevin emphasizes the importance of meeting men where they are and creating trust to help them take their next step in their faith journey. Men need other men to encourage them and hold them accountable. As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church. Stay tuned for Week 4 of the The Church Needs Men Series.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn this episode, Lead Pastor Mike Snedeker from Community Evangelical Church (CEC) in Sinking Spring, PA, shares insights on the importance of men’s ministry and the transformative role that Men of Iron has played in the church. For 13 years, CEC has partnered with Men of Iron to help men re-engage in church leadership and live out their biblical roles. Pastor Mike observes that modern culture often pulls men away from faith and into careers and hobbies, leading to a disengagement from church.Through mentorship programs like Strong27, CEC has seen men prioritize their faith, spend time in Scripture, and grow in leadership, ultimately transforming their families and communities. Mike highlights that intentional discipleship, modeled after Jesus' example of mentoring a few to influence many, is essential for church growth. He encourages men to consider who they can mentor and emphasizes that true change begins with placing God at the center of one’s life."When you orient your life to the things of scripture, that becomes the drive of your life instead of the other way around."Pastor Mike concludes by affirming that Men of Iron has been pivotal in CEC’s journey, helping them focus on disciple-making rather than attracting large numbers. This approach has deeply impacted their church culture, aligning them more closely with Jesus' call for the church to equip and send out disciples.As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn today's episode, we're kicking off a new series called The Church Needs Men Series, exploring the vital role of men in ministry. Paul Andrulonis, Associate Pastor at Sailors Union Grace Church in Maryland, joins us for Week 1. Growing up in a ministry family, Paul shares insights on why men are called to lead, serve, and live with purpose in the church. He emphasizes, “We must focus on people, not just the work,” and how essential it is for men to disciple and train others in their faith.Men have a unique calling to lead, care for families, and take steps of faith—even when it’s uncomfortable. Often, men are hesitant because they fear vulnerability and the costs of leadership, but Jesus emulated for us what servant leadership looks like. Paul discusses how culture increasingly downplays the importance of men, but the church must counter this by affirming men’s roles and encouraging them to step up."Men are an integral part of the church and it's important for us to focus on them."A crucial part of men's ministry is mentorship and identifying who can mentor and disciple and who needs mentorship. For young men, having godly mentors to answer hard questions and help navigate life stages—from new jobs to marriage and fatherhood—is invaluable. Church leaders play an essential role in identifying men who need discipleship. Young men looking for more mature leaders is important but godly men looking for young men to mentor is just as important. We need to think through the lends of who can disciple me and who can I disciple. It has to be that reciprocation of discipleship, that's what Jesus emulated while he was here. That is a huge part of men's ministry, being discipled and discipling others. Discipleship and mentorship never ends, it is a lifestyle. As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church. Stay tuned for Week 2 of the The Church Needs Men Series. If you are looking to take the next step in your faith journey, let us be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn this closing episode of The Restoration Series, Phil shares his powerful journey from a difficult family background toward healing and transformation through faith. Raised in a tough family marked by alcoholism, lies, and money laundering, Phil often felt out of place. His life took a pivotal turn when he met his future wife as a teenager, whose influence—and that of her family—led him to faith in Jesus."If I hadn't met my wife and the Lord, I think I would have committed suicide."After decades of shoving stuff under the rug, the early years of marriage and fatherhood for Phil started to bring messy things to the surface. Forcing Phil and his wife to work through past wounds. It was through this season that Phil started to understand the heart of God and what it truly means to have a Father. God used those experiences to show Phil what it looks like to lead his family. With the support of mentors, he learned to lead his family from a place of humility and service rather than power and control. Walking closely with the Lord Phil is seeing God's heart and the good plans He has for him and his family."He's rescued me from crazy situations and using those for heart change." Phil's heart for the Lord is evident in this conversation. He is actively pursuing the Lord and what God has for him. He has broken a generation cycle and wants to leave a legacy of a man who loved the Lord and ferociously pursued Him. A legacy of advancing the Kingdom. Thanks for watching the Restoration Series!

During an Easter break, he felt God prompting him to stay at school, which led to a job opportunity in Los Angeles that shaped his career. After marrying his wife, Amy, the couple moved to Atlanta to pursue freelance work, but they eventually returned to Pennsylvania in 2020, just as the pandemic hit. With job prospects dwindling, Chad experienced deep anger and frustration with God."As a father I felt so pathetic and useless, I couldn't provide for my family. I was bitter and angry towards God."However, the support of friends and co-workers helped him find healing and restore his faith.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateIn this episode of The Restoration Series, Colton returns to the podcast as we sit down with Roman, who shares his journey of restoration. Growing up in a Christian family, Roman seemed to have it all together on the outside—great family, successful in sports, popular, and doing well in school. It was during his junior year of high school that Roman started chasing after the wrong things. A relationship with a girlfriend resulted in a pregnancy and ultimately leading to a regretful decision. The pain of this decision led Roman to carry deep shame, depression, and guilt for years and caused him to harm himself.Thanks to a prayer warrior of a mom and a loving father, Roman’s journey of restoration and healing would begin. His mom discovered what had happened, and his parents met him with grace and love instead of anger—mirroring the grace of God. “I told my parents about everything that had happened, it was such a weight off my shoulders.”Around this time Roman also found a mentor in his coach, they started meeting weekly and doing life together. Roman’s faith and relationship with God starting growing exponentially. Through his restoration story, Roman now has a heart for mentoring young men, helping them avoid the same mistakes and experience the love and grace of God.This 5-part series gives us a glimpse into the lives of 5 different men and their stories of restoration.

Growing up in Arizona with a single mom who avoided religion, Zack left home at 18 to join the military. After two tours in Afghanistan, he returned home struggling with PTSD and wanting to end his life. "The one time was really bad, I was sitting in a tub with a gun to my head and couldn't pull the trigger." In a moment of desperation, Zack sought answers from any religion he could find before his wife gifted him his first Bible. Zack knew if something didn't change he wasn't going to be around much longer. Through a business meeting, Zack met Dan and their conversation quickly turned to God. It was this life-changing conversation with Dan that would put Zack on a new trajectory. Weeks later an encounter with the Holy Spirit changed EVERYTHING. Zack prayed his first prayer to God in his kitchen and dropped to his knees. "Looking back I know it was an encounter with the Holy Spirit, I felt all of my sin lifted off of my shoulders."Now, Zack mentors other men, shares his faith with non-believers, and has even led family members to Christ. His faith journey has also strengthened his marriage, which had been strained by past mistakes. "Knowing what God did for me in such a dark spot, I know he can do it for other people."This 5-part series gives us a glimpse into the lives of 5 different men and their stories of restoration.

This 5-part series gives us a glimpse into the lives of 5 different men and their stories of restoration. This week we sit down with Caesar as he shares his faith journey. Growing up in East Los Angeles Caesar attended church as a kid with his aunt and uncle. As Caesar got older he stopped going to church as his faith in God slowly started to fade. "I felt a sense of void and emptiness, no point or purpose in my life." But God kept pursuing Caesar. Through a conversation with his sister on the opposite side of the country, Caesar ended up in Pennsylvania. A change of course that would alter his life forever. Despite a strong desire to go back home and continue in his old ways, Caesar decided to stay. Through the prodding of his sister and small steps of faith, Caesar's life was restored. Often times God will remove us from situations that are unhealthy, but it takes action on our part. God is always working and God is always restoring. Sometimes we have to look back to see what God did for us.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateJustin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue Part 4, the final part of our conversation on sexual addiction. Justin talks about battling his addiction for years, the key to finding freedom was bringing other people into the journey. Relationships and accountability are key to finding freedom and healing. There is something powerful about relationships within the body of Christ. Men, you need accountability in your life. Be authentic and real with the Lord and others. When you confess your sins to one another there is forgiveness there. There is a path to freedom that God wants you to take, and it is so much better than the path you are on. But YOU have to be the one to pursue it and you have to pursue it with others alongside you. When we live intentionally on this path, we start to see things how God sees things. From the very beginning we have been promised something so good, a relationship with God. So put down the old and pick up what is truly good, God. Whatever you are struggling with that consumes your mind, put that time and energy into God and see what He does. The Lord wants what's best for you, but He is not going to force you into it.You cannot overcome sexual addiction on your own.

Today we talk about making God a priority and how it will change everything! When you put God first you will start to see things differently. It is NOT going to be an immediate fix, but there is hope on the other side. Hebrews 11:6 says, He rewards those who diligently seek Him." Men, it takes intentionality. It takes making your relationship with the Father a priority. Be honest with Him about where you are at. Admitting your sin is the first step in the healing process.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateJustin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue Part 2 of our conversation on sexual addiction. "I always felt like a fraud as a Christian struggling with sexual addiction." How often as men are we chasing after the temporary satisfaction in life and not the eternal? We expect God to give us what We want, not for us to chase after what God wants for us. Like any other relationship in our lives, our relationship with God takes time and intentionality. We must actively choose to invest time with God. When was the last time you spent time with the Lord? It doesn't happen passively.

When we are going through a season of addiction if feels impossible to focus on our relationship with God. No matter what you are going through, don't delay getting right with God. We know it is NOT easy trying to stop a sinful behavior on your own. We need others and we need God to overcome it. The closer we are with God the more He will be these natural desires into alignment. You are not going to be able to overcome it without God.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate Justin and Tony are back on the pod for the final week of our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about fighting lust, not porn. What exactly is lust? Lust is a strong, intense desire for something. Lust replaces God's design for intimacy and connection with sinful desires that are outside of His creation. When we get outside of those bounds, it leads to death and destruction. We take what God intended to be natural and we change it for our selfish gain. How are you honoring the image of God in other people? Remember, when you look at a woman lustfully, that is God's daughter. "I've mad a covenant with my eyes." Job 31:1 (NIV) Ultimately, our eyes connect to our brain, our thoughts connect to our heart and desires. Lust starts with what we see and think. It's not just a physical thing, lust is a bigger deal than just pornography. We have to approach the issue holistically – mental, emotional, spiritual, etc. Despite all the messiness and brokenness you may be facing, there is grace! God wants the best for YOU.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateJustin and Tony are back on the pod for Week 3 as we continue our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about Pastors and Porn and how pornography greatly affects Christian leaders and the Church. Statistics say that 50-57% of pastors admit they struggle with pornography. So why are we not having conversations about sexual addiction in the church? One, it is a "taboo" topic and an uncomfortable and messy topic. Pastors and churches are afraid to admit it and talk about it that it is an issue. For pastors specifically, it is a struggle that IF they admit it could jeopardize everything. Another issue is some churches are afraid if they talk about the uncomfortable issues, people will stop showing up. To the pastors, church leaders and men listening to this, the Church is a place for the broken. We can't build towards what God has for us if we are pretending and faking. There is freedom in being vulnerable and being transparent! James 5:16 says, "Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." James 5:16 (NIV). The power of not being real is keeping us from all that God has for us. It's time to confess, get accountability and work towards freedom.You cannot overcome sexual addiction on your own.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateJustin and Tony are back on the pod for Week 2 as we continue our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about How Porn is Ruining Your Marriage. Stats say nearly 40% of married men seek out illicit images on a regular basis. 56% of marriages that end in divorce at least one spouse was obsessed with porn. Pornography is part of the picture but not all of it when it comes to sexual addiction. A lot of men fail to admit that they have a sexual addiction. If you keep going back to whatever your thing is, that's an addiction. Jesus says in Matthew 5:27, when you look at a woman lustfully you have already committed adultery in your heart. Jesus raises the standard. It starts with a look and can easily lead to other things. What is that look going to cost you? Your addiction to porn leads to objectifying woman, including your wife. You are ultimately measuring your wife up against these images on the screen. Sexual addiction is self-focused. The more we are lusting after things we want, we are not going after the things God wants. We are designed for connection and intimacy with God and others. Men, don't hide it anymore. It is ruining your marriage. You cannot overcome sexual addiction on your own.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateJustin and Tony join the pod for the month of August as we dive into Overcoming Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. It's a topic and struggle that the Church and men in general have a hard time talking about. This episode we are talking about How Sexual Addiction Rewires the Brain. God designed us for intimacy and connection. That design is broken when we replace healthy relationships and things with unhealthy relationships. Pornograpy creates a chemical dependency. It's proven that sexual addiction actually changes and rewires your brain. When we continue in the same addiction/pattern, the neurons form in that direction and create a real visible path in your brain. Our brains start to depend on the highs that are given from these addictions. If you are struggling with sexual addiction, you have to know the science behind it and understand how your brain operates. You have to rewire your brain, to rewire means to stop going down the old path and start going down a new path. Men, whatever you are struggling with, there is freedom. It is possible! But remember, you can't do it on your own. Find accountability – confess to a mentor or friend and allow him to hold you accountable.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateRyan and Colton are back for Week 5, the final week of the Fatherhood Series. This week we dive into how to be the dad your family needs. In order to be the dad your family needs, you have to know what your family needs. You will not be able to know what your family needs if you aren't connected to God. The best thing you can do as a father is to pursue a relationship with God. We get it, being a dad is a lot of work. After a long day at the office it's easy to want to turn it off when you walk in the door. Remember this men – you are replaceable at work, you are NOT replaceable at home! Don't put things in the wrong order, prioritize the right relationships. Prioritize your family. Recognize the weight of that fact that God is asking you to be the spiritual leader of your family. Be a dad who is present and who spiritually leads. Whatever season of life you are in, whether you feel you've been a good dad or not, be the best dad you can be RIGHT NOW. Chase after the ultimate example, God, and be the dad your family needs.Looking for a mentor? Life is hard, especially when you go at it alone.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateRyan and Colton are back for Week 3 of the Fatherhood Series as we talk about The Legacy of a Father. Every man has a legacy. Your legacy is what you are leaving behind, what you will be remembered by. Your legacy defines you. Imagine your funeral – will people show up, who will show up and what will they say? The choices you make on a daily basis form your legacy. Think about this – are you reflecting God the Father in how you interact and lead your wife and kids? Your legacy should be pointing your kids back to God. You want your kids to be like you because you are trying to be like God. If you want to leave a legacy of a man who pursued God and impressed that on his kids – take them to church, read them God’s Word, show them how to love your wife as Christ loved the church. Men, you have a legacy whether you want one or not. Think through what your legacy is, and ask yourself – am I hitting the mark and what do I need to strive for? If you want to leave a strong godly legacy, use God as the ultimate example.Looking for a mentor? Life is hard, especially when you go at it alone.

Whether your dad wasn't in the picture, or you had a great dad, we hope this episode is a great resource for you. If you struggle in your relationship with your dad, it's going to make your relationship with God harder. God is a God of restoration, He can heal your father wounds.

If your dad wasn't there for you or he wasn't in the picture, he wasn't striving to be like God the Father. The first step in healing is talking to God and talking to others.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateRyan and Colton join the pod for July as we dive into the Fatherhood Series! What does it mean when we talk about God the Father? Throughout scripture God presents Himself to us as Father. In Exodus 4:22 we read, "Then say to Pharaoh, ‘This is what the Lord says: Israel is my firstborn son." Jesus during the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 7 is telling us us in comparison to even the best human father, how much more is God a good and loving father. Maybe your relationship with your dad is great, maybe it isn't. Maybe your dad isn't even in the picture. We want you to know and remember that God is the ultimate Father. If we are looking to anyone but Him we are always going to be disappointed. Maybe you are a dad yourself and trying to figure out how to lead, follow God's example. God cares for us, He provides for us and He disciplines us. God gently guides us and leads us in the way we should go. Remember men, God is the ultimate example of fatherhood – strive to be like God!Become a mentor! Are you passionate about mentorship and helping another man grow in his faith, family, friends, fitness and finances?

The Men of Iron BODcast is back for Week 4 with Justin and Roman. This week we close out the Fitness Series by providing you some practical fitness tips to help get you started. Our anchor verse this month has been 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, "You are not your own; for you were bought at price. So honor God with your body." God wants YOU to honor Him with the way you treat your body. Taking your fitness seriously honors God. If you have neglected your fitness for some time it's not going to be easy. There is not a quick fix to hard work. Find something that you enjoy and start pursuing that. Be intentional with a plan and share that plan with a friend. You are 76% more likely to achieve your goal if you write down AND share it with a friend to hold you accountable. Here are 5 practical fitness tips to put into action today!5 Practical Fitness Tips:#1 – Start small#2 – Start with something you enjoy (hiking, basketball, biking, etc.)#3 – Schedule it out, put it on your calendar#4 – Invite a friend into your fitness journey#5 – Write your plan out on paper and share it with a friendFitness matters because of the Gospel, you were bought at a price, so honor God with your body.

The Men of Iron BODcast is back for Week 3 with Justin and Roman! This week we are talking about the dangers of fitness becoming an idol. "Whatever you do, do it ALL for the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31. If you don't view your fitness and body through a God-centered lens, it can quickly become an idol. This happens when you start putting your identity in your looks, or what you can accomplish through fitness, instead of God. What are some red flags to tell if you are making fitness an idol?#1 - Spending too much time at the gym that it takes away from God or your family#2 - If it doesn't bring you a healthy excitement and joyWhen we talk about fitness becoming an idol there are two sides. There are men who spend too much time working out and men who don't spend any time or enough time working out. The overall mortality rate is 41 percent higher for men than women, and it’s higher for men for 8 out of 10 leading causes of death—including heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes (Indiana State University Report). There are probably more men listening on the "I don't prioritize my fitness" side of the coin. Men, God believes that you are worth it, you can do it. God wants to use your physical body for the relationships around you – for your wife, kids, neighbors, friends. It starts with building healthy habit. As we read in 1 Corinthians 6:19, "You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."Fitness matters because of the Gospel, you were bought at a price, so honor God with your body. If you have struggled with your fitness for years it can feel overwhelming or intimidating to know where to start.

The Men of Iron BODcast is back for Week 2 with Justin and Roman! Last week we talked about the theology of fitness and why it’s important. This week we dive into what it looks like to pursue your fitness goals and physical health for the glory of God. “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 (NIV). Take a moment and think about why you work out? Is it to glorify God or for personal gain? God wants you to use your physical abilities to glorify Him, serve others and live out your purpose. Like we learned last week, your body is a temple and your fitness is ultimately about honoring the Holy Spirit who lives inside of you. Running a marathon, going to the gym regularly, getting in shape, eating healthy. These are all great things that we SHOULD pursue, but God has to be at the center. Do it ALL for the glory of God.Fitness matters because of the Gospel, you were bought at a price, so honor God with your body.

The Men of Iron BODcast is back with Justin and Roman! In the month of June we will be talking all about fitness and why it matters. How do we glorify God with our fitness? What does the Bible say about health and wellness? Fitness is more than just going to the gym, we need to think of fitness through a wholistic lens. Sleep, stress, mental health, nutrition, mobility, weights, cardio, etc. It's a topic that the Church often ignores. Men, in order to live out the purpose God has for you, your physical and mental health matter! What are some reasons men haven't prioritized fitness? Life is too busy, don't know where to start, it costs money or maybe it causes pain.As we read in 1 Corinthians 6:19, "You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."Fitness matters because of the Gospel, you were bought at a price, so honor God with your body.

Ryan and Tony are back for Week 4 of The Friend Series as we wrap up the month talking about mentorship. One-to-one mentorship is at the heart of what we do at Men of Iron. We believe every man should be involved in a mentorship. Tony shares his journey of how having a mentor has greatly impacted his life. Men, we all have purpose and finding that purpose is easier when you have another man walking alongside you. Mentors hold you accountable, challenge you, and encourage you to be the best man you can be. We all need accountability in our lives, we can't do it on our own. Getting involved in a mentorship will have a generational impact. If you don't know how to find a mentor, think of a friend in your life who is a season or two ahead of you. Ask that friend to mentor you and see what happens. If you need some help finding a mentor or protege, we would love to help. Apply today at www.menofiron.org/strong27.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateRyan and Tony are back for Week 3 of The Friend Series as we take a look at friendship in the Bible. From Lazarus and Jesus to David and Jonathan, the Bible provides several examples of really solid friendships. Friendship takes intentionality and effort and Jesus models true friendship for us in His life of ministry. His friends were the faithful men who carried on the mission of Jesus after his death. The story of David and Jonathan, another great example of friendship in the Bible. David meets Jonathan and they become friends, even though David and Saul are essentially political rivals. That’s what makes this friendship so shocking. Jonathan was more concerned with God’s plans than his own plans. David and Jonathan were great friends because they served a great God together. That was the most important part of their friendship. How can we apply this type of friendship and obedience to our own lives? You need a friendship like David and Jonathan in your life. When you serve God, everything else in your life will be better. Think about someone in your life who could benefit from being your friend. Text that guy today and start investing in them.

Ryan and Tony are back for Week 2 of The Friend Series as we talk about balancing Christian and non-Christian friendships. This episode is NOT about getting rid of your friends who are don't know or love Jesus. It's about evaluating your friendships and ultimately using these relationships to help you and others grow closer to God. Jesus was known for hanging out with sinners, but his inner circle was made up of men who were striving to be godly. The closest voices in your life should be men who point you closer to Jesus. Take inventory of your friends. Who are your closest friends? Are they bringing you closer to Jesus? Who are some men in your life who you can point closer to Jesus? Men, relationships don't grow by accident. Friendships get harder as we get older with family, kids, work, etc. It takes intentionality to sustain close  friendships. Think about some friendships in your life that need attention and act on that today.We would love to help equip you for this journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Ryan and Tony join the pod for the month of May as we kick off The Friends Series! Why don't men have friends? We all have friends (or acquaintances) that we can watch a football game with or grab a beer with. But what about those deep, dependable friendships? As men we are often resistant to these type of friendships. It's easier to keep our destructive habits to ourselves, to not be challenged or held accountable. Men you weren't meant to do life alone. You need dependable friends to care for you, hold you accountable and to grow in your faith with. Find a friend who is going to move you closer to God. If you don't have a friend or friend like this in your life, we would love to help you in your journey. Contact us today! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/ "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." Proverbs 27:17.

Trav and Scott start are back this week as we continue The Money Series! When you think about your money is it really YOUR money or is it God's money? In the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25 we see the master entrusting the servants with his estate. Although each servant is entrusted with different sums of money, it still all belongs to the master. All of our money, time and abilities come from God. We are responsible for stewarding it well. God is the supplier, He is the source, He gives us all things. We often hear the popular phrase, money is the root of all evil. But as we read in 1 Timothy 6:10, it is the LOVE of money that is the root of evil. It's easy as men to put our focus on money and success. To put our careers over our relationship with God. This will ultimately lead to destruction and ruin. Men, trust God with your finances. Steward well ALL that He has supplied you with. It's not our money, it's God's.We would love to help equip you for this journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Happy April Fool's Day! Trav and Scott kick off the pod this month with a bang as we debut The Money Series! There's a powerful and in inseparable tie between our true spiritual condition and our attitude and actions concerning money and possessions. You can't get away from money, you need it everyday. It's easy to accumulate wealth or success and forget our need for God. But the reality is God owns everything and I just manage it. Think about this, what if God asked you – how are you doing with my money? What would be your response? Are your eyes on God who has given us everything we have or are your eyes on what we have? We would love to help equip you for this journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we wrap up our Family Series as we talk about a taboo topic in the church, blended families. In the most recent U.S. Census it says that there are 1,300 step families being created every day. A blended family is different biological households that are now combined due to divorce, the death of a spouse, etc. Blended families are something that we need to be talking about. God's design for the family in scripture was very specific. But the reality is we live in a broken world with broken relationships. If you are a dad leading a blended family, you know that you are going to face some challenges that a traditional family might not have to deal with. It's going to take a little more work and a little more intentionality. But God can and will redeem your role as the leader of your family.Five Practical For Creating a Healthy Blended Family#1 – Put God first in YOUR life#2 – Show your kids what a godly husband and father looks like#3 – Deal with the trauma – be aware of it, be open about it, talk about it#4 – You are the spiritual leader for your biological kids AND your step kids#5 – Be respectful of the other family involvedWe would love to help equip you for this journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we continue our Family Series as we talk about Broken Marriages and Relationships and how to find restoration. When you are dealing with a broken marriage or relationship, it's a really hard place to be. One of the best ways to avoid a broken marriage is to not let it get there in the first place. Which is easier said than done! God will bless your marriage when you put the work in. Take a step even when it doesn't feel right. If you are in a place of brokenness and feel hopeless, remember God knows who you are and where you are. He calls you his son and will come to you in your mess. Broken relationships exist in marriages, with kids, friends, and many more situations. Ryan shares an amazing story of a broken relationship between a father and son restored through Christ. Remember there is potential for restoration in that broken relationship, you just have to give it to God. Four Steps to Restore Your Marriage and Broken Relationships:#1 – Evaluate your relationship with God#2 – Remember that God knows what your going through#3 – Think through what your broken relationship is suppose to teach you#4 – Share your story of how God changed your broken relationshipWe would love to help equip you for this journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we continue our Family Series as we talk about A Man and His Kids. How are you spiritually leading your kids? It's easy to think that someone else like a pastor or teacher will do it, but listen up dads, NO ONE will have more impact on your kids spiritual formation than you. It's never too late to take your spiritual responsibility seriously. The best thing you can do to spiritually invest in your kids is to invest in them when they are young. God from the very beginning wanted fathers to take the spiritual development of their kids very seriously. Dads are suppose to lead their kids. When father's fail at their job, culture takes over. Men, it takes intentionality, you don't accidentally disciple your kids.If you don't know where to start or how to lead your kids spiritually, just take one small step today. Read a Bible story at the dinner table, pray before each meal, share a story of how God worked in your own life. Intentionality is the key word men, lead your kids on purpose.

This week we begin our Family Series as we talk about what a man's role in the home looks like. At the forefront of views on manhood are often the cultural narratives about toxic masculinity. When we look at what the Bible says, from creation in Genesis 1, Gods makes man in His own image. God gave Adam authority over everything in the world, but also provided a companion for Adam to serve as his helper. They were both created in God's image with unique tasks and skillsets.  When sin entered the world Adam tried to hide what happened and blamed it on Eve. Men we must lead from a servant position, not a power position. We as men don't have more value than women, we just have different roles. When we are intentional about our role as men in the home, we lead from a servant position. As men we often put so much effort into being a great leader at work and don't have the energy to be a great leader at home. When we look at Paul's teachings in Ephesians, he was doing something wildly radical in teaching men how to to lead their families from a servant position. It was countercultural, and still is today! Let's be countercultural men! Be a man that your wife wants to follow, that your kids want to follow.Recommended Resource: Check out "20 Lessons That Build A Man's Family" – menofiron.org/product/20-lessons-familyYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

This week we close out our Faith Conversations for Men Series as we talk about man's highest calling, being the spiritual leader of your home. What does it mean to be the spiritual leader of your house? Are you modeling your faith well for your wife and kids? Ephesians 5 calls us to, "Love your wives as Christ loved the church." Being the spiritual leader of your home is the highest calling you have as a man! Men, take this role as the spiritual leader of your home serious. The responsibility is huge, but you don't have to hit a home run on day one. If you feel as if you don't know where to start or feel like you've messed it up in the past, it's not too late to try again. Failure is NOT final. God has a vision for your home and he wants you to tap into that vision. Ask God what that vision is and pray for that. Secular culture demeans men in a lot of ways, especially the role of a man in the home. Let's recapture God's design for us as men!Four Practical tips for being the spiritual leader in your home:Self Evaluate – Be honest with yourself and where you are at in this areaAsk Your Wife – Get your wife's viewpoint on where you are atFind a Mentor – You can't do this on your own, find a mentor to guide and encourage youStart Small – Pray at the dinner table, read bible stories to your kids, pray with your wifeRecommended Resource: Check out "20 Lessons That Build A Man's Family" – menofiron.org/product/20-lessons-familyYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

This week we continue our Faith Conversations for Men Series as we dive into another hard topic, "Faith Through Suffering." Men – you WILL go through suffering in life, it's all about how you deal with it. Knowing Jesus does NOT mean you won't suffer in life. We live in a broken world. What does faith look like through suffering? We tend to think we can't have seasons of suffering and doubt if we are strong enough in our faith. This concept of "having it all together" is one of the most harmful things to Christians and the church. When we put this facade up, and don't open about our suffering it causes more harm. Men are especially subject to this and it ultimately leads to isolation. What does scripture say? There's a long record in scripture of God's people being very vulnerable about the things they are struggling with. Being able to lament, mourn and confess and be real with God and one another. We see it firsthand with Jesus crying out in the garden and lamenting on the cross. We have an invitation from scripture to be real and to lament about our suffering. It will ultimately lead to healing.Three Practical tips for dealing with suffering:Confront the Pain – Be real about your pain and your grief with yourself and with GodRead your Bible – Find out what Scripture has to say about sufferingTalk to someone – Open up about your pain to your spouse, friend, a counselor, your small groupRecommended Resource: Check out this amazing book "Just Be Honest: How to Worship Through Tears" by our good friend Clint Watkins, www.thegoodbook.com/just-be-honestYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

This week we continue our Faith Conversations for Men Series as we dive into a hard and sensitive topic, "Church Hurt." Justin and Jeff talk through what church hurt is and what it isn't and provide some practical tips to navigate through it. A recent study shared that 60% of Christians have been impacted in a negative way by the church. The church is the hope of the world, but it's made up of people that are broken. What exactly is church hurt? Church hurt is when you trust in a spiritual leader, pastor, or friend at the church and that trust is broken. Church hurt occurs when pain (physical or emotional) results from the actions or decisions associated with someone in a church.Practical tips for dealing with church hurt:#1 – Tell someone – Get the necessary people involved (church leadership, family/friends, the authorities)#2 – Identify the hurt – Church hurt is a real thing, it's okay to feel it#3 - An individual hurt you, not God – Separate the humanity of the church from who God is#4 – Seek community – Don't try to battle this on your own#5 – Forgive – It will take time but start working through the process of forgiveness*If you have experienced serious church hurt, take the necessary steps today (Go to church leadership, and if necessary go to the authorities)You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

This month we begin a new series titled, "Faith Conversations for Men." Justin and Jeff join the pod for week 1 as we discuss faith in the workplace. What does your faith look like at work? Here are some stats for you: 90% of Christians work in non-Christian work environments and one percent of Christians talk to non-Christians about their faith only one time a year. One percent, one time a year! Do you hide your faith at work in fear of what people may think? We have a natural human tendency to want to be accepted and fear often plays a huge factor in our ability to share our faith in a non-Christian environment. You don't have to be a theologian to be a light in your workplace. You can be real about your faith and still be approachable. Meet people where they are at. Be authentic about who you are and what you believe.5 ways to live out your faith in the workplace:#1 – Be authentic#2 – Be hard-working#3 – Be a friend#4 – Be loyal#5 – Don't compromise, hold to your convictionsYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

This week we wrap up our 5 week series on The 5F's as we close it out talking about FINANCES. The Bible has a ton to say about money, finances, debt, about providing for our families. If we are going to be men of integrity, finances is an area we MUST focus on! Most often, the reason your finances are suffering is because you are buying things you can't afford. This happens when we put our security in our social status, when we surrender to our consumeristic nature. Jesus teaches, do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven (Matthew 6:19-21). Invest in things that bring more people to Jesus. It's ultimately about stewardship, what we have is ours because God gave it to us. Men, it all starts with our relationship with Jesus. Most often when you are financially unhealthy your eyes are off Jesus. If you are invest in your faith, your finances will fall in line.5 Practical Tips to Thrive in Your Finances:#1 – Put God first#2 – Make a budget#3 – If married, regularly discuss finances with your wife#4 – Spend less than you earn#5 – Be a good steward of your moneyYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.

If we are NOT physically healthy, we are not going to be able to use the gifts that God has given us. How do I make my fitness a priority?#1 – Start small, take the first step#2 – Get advice – talk to your wife, talk to God#3 – Build healthy habits#4 – Set some fitness goals#5 – Get some accountabilityIf you need help getting started, check out our 5-Week Fitness Challenge for beginners, Fit & Forged! – menofiron.org/fitandforgedYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube!

This week we continue our series on the 5F's as we turn our attention to FRIENDS. Why do men need friends? Most men, especially Christian men, feel like they don’t have a lot of or any close friends. We often have acquaintances but not friends. Friends is the The #1 most neglected F in the 5F’s.Why are friends so important to the Christian man’s walk?#1 – For Accountability – a friend to hold you accountable and challenge you#2 – For Growth, a friend to process life with and grow with#3 – For Adventure, a friend to hang out with and pursue adventure withLife gets busy with marriage, kids, and work that we often lose those early adulthood friendships. We often feel guilty sacrificing time with our wife or kids to go hang out with friends. Men, we weren’t meant to do this life alone. We need other men in our lives who will walk alongside us as we strive to be more like Jesus. We know, it’s hard to find Christian male friends without it feeling awkward!

This week we finish our series on "The Four Man-Killers" that will knock men off their adventure to know God and their purpose. Week 3 we talked about Overcoming Lust, this week we talk about Overcoming Addiction. Webster describes addiction as a compulsive, exhibiting a compulsive, chronic, physiological or psychological need for a habit-forming substance, behavior, or activity. Addiction can cause anxiety, irritability, tremors, or nausea upon withdrawal or abstinence. Men, addiction WILL rob of us of the most important things in life.We can even be addicted to good things – career, fitness, hunting, hobbies. Being devoted or dedicated other than God is idolatry. God truly wants what's best for you. What are you spending your time doing? What are you putting before your relationship with God? We are ALL susceptible to addiction and we are all susceptible to things that can draw our attention away from what's most important.How do we overcome or stay clear of addiction:#1 – Take inventory of your time and desires#2 – Put God first#3 – Run towards what's good#4 – Establish positive habits in your life#5 – Seek out community and accountability (if you have serious addiction issues, seek professional help)You can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube!

Week 2 we talked about Overcoming Apathy, this week we talk about Lust. This easily could be the #1 man-killer on the list, but often the least talked about. Lust is NOT just pornography, but here are some major stats on pornography: 12% of all the internet sites are porn sites, 90% of kids ages 8-16 have viewed porn, 70% of men ages 18-34 visit a porn site each month. Why is lust such a trap and temptation for us men? What are you desiring in your heart, what are you pursuing with your thoughts? That's what lust is, it starts in your mind.What are the reasons men don't experience freedom in this area?#1 - We don’t talk about it, we do it alone#2 - It is a mental illness/addiction for many#3 - Focus only on behavior modification vs. deeper causes of mental/social/spiritual issues that we’re maskingYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube!

Scott Davis is back on the pod this week as he closes out our series on Influence. What is influence? Influence is the power or ability to change or affect someone or something. Last week we talked about influence specialized, and today we talk about influence capitalized. How can I best use my influence for God's glory? For you to help others to grow, you have to be growing yourself. Having a nurturing attitude is huge to capitalizing your influence. People are influenced most by other people who make them feel best about themselves. To become a person of influence you must come alongside people and get involved in their lives. You can teach people what you know, but you can only reproduce who you are – that's influence.Listen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

Tony Galati is back on the pod as he wraps up our Accountability Series for the month of October. Accountability is the idea that someone is responsible for their actions and will face consequences if they choose unfavorable actions. It’s the practice of being held to a certain standard of excellence. You can see the difference between men who have accountability in their lives and men who don't. Men, fighting a battle alone is a great way to ensure failure. Small steps of obedience will bring great blessings from God. It's NEVER too late to make a change. You are not alone, there are countless other men out there going through the same struggles as you.

Travis Albanesius is back on the pod as we continue our Mentorship Series for the month of September. Last week we defined mentorship as the influence, guidance or direction given by a mentor or teacher given to a protege. Right before Jesus ascended back to heaven he looked at His disciples and said, “Go and make disciples.” The world needs more Christian mentors. This week we are going to talk about the key to being a great mentor. Here is the key, if you want to be a great mentor, first you have to be a great protege. Before Jesus’ disciples were called to go out and make disciples on their own, they followed and learned from Jesus for 2-3 years. They needed to be sharpened and prepared, and we are no different. Being a great protege takes work, it takes being committed. If we could see the potential fruit that it could bear in our lives, we would be all in! You can be a great godly mentor, but first you have to be a great protege.Listen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

Travis Albanesius takes over the pod for the month of September as we begin our series on Mentorship. Mentorship is the influence, guidance or direction given by a mentor or teacher. As Christian men, we all recognize an important need to raise up Christian leaders. We as followers of Christ are called to be intentional about mentorship. Raising up leaders takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of energy and it takes a lot of effort. We are busy doing a lot of really good things, but we are not intentional at doing the very best things. What we choose to be intentional about says a lot about who we are. What are the top 2-3 things that you are intentional about right now? Jesus was passionate about developing leaders, He was passionate about mentorship. Men, let's be intentional about inviting others to follow you as you follow Jesus.

Justin Watkins is back on the pod for the final week of our Fitness & Health Series. Last episode we were at the pitch of the climb, which means you’re seeing progress in your goals and expanding the reach of your goals. So as you get closer to the summit, your knowledge, experience and habits have become more second nature to you. Others around you know you as a guy who cares about his health. At this stage of the climb fitness can easily become an idol rather than the means to your adventure of knowing God and pursuing your purpose. Yes, your fitness matters because you are a temple of the Holy Spirit. You were bought at a great price, so honor God with your body.

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Justin Watkins is back on the pod as dive into Week 3 of our Fitness & Health Series. Last week we talked about how to start your fitness journey and provided some practical first steps. Remember, it's important to focus on the physical part of your fitness journey, but do not neglect the spiritual, emotional and mental components as well. Today I want to talk to the guy who is already on the climb of his fitness journey, maybe on the mountain just above the tree line. You've been committed to some new fitness routines for a season or two. This part of the climb is beyond the early stage of working through those pressing pain points of your initial goals and health needs. Remember, it takes at least 90 days of consistency in a habit or routine before you should be evaluating the progress. At this point, your fitness efforts are becoming a more natural part of who you are, rather than something you’re striving to do. This is going from, “I want to work out” to having a mindset of, “I am a person who works out,”

So we are at the pitch of the mountain, and you’re here to pause for a bit and assess the journey. Here are 3 reasons why:

1 - You are now ready and need to go deeper into the spiritual and emotional dynamics related to your fitness journey

2 - You need to look back down the mountain and celebrate the progress you’ve made

3 - Perhaps the climb is getting weary and you need to check off those first two reasons in order to refocus your vision and refresh your energy to get moving

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Justin Watkins is back on the pod as we continue our focus on fitness and why fitness matters in regard to our faith. Your fitness journey is a command and a responsibility to honor the Holy Spirit. It is more than just going to the gym and losing a few pounds. What are the pain points that you have as you look up the mountain of your fitness journey. Maybe you are at the beginning of your fitness journey or it's gotten off course? You can't keep neglecting your physical body and not expect it to impact the rest of your life. God can use your paint points to get you started in the right direction.

Here are four practical steps for your fitness journey:

1 - Small steps and SMART goals

2 - Climb with others

3 - Celebrate often

4 - Keep climbing on

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Paul is making the point that the choices you make with your physical body have a direct impact on your intimacy with God. There is no distinction between what I do physically and what I do spiritually. Men, God's Spirit lives in you. To teach you about who He is and transform you. Fitness is taking care of the Temple of the Holy Spirit, both inside and outside. We are trusted with the gift of our physical bodies in order to bring God glory. This is why fitness matters!

Remember men, if your marriage is more important than your walk with God that's YOUR problem. It all starts with God. A healthy relationship with God means a healthy marriage.

“God instilled in me a passion to help others from a young age. However, I spent the early years of my life bouncing between halfhearted commitments and living in pure rebellion. I am grateful for God’s grace, mercy, love and forgiveness. I have allowed God to take my regrets and use them as opportunities to help others as I am able to relate to many of the issues men face today. I also have a deep passion to help men who are walking through difficult marriages. God has truly blessed me with my position at Men of Iron and I humbly and thankfully choose to  be used as a vessel for Him.”

Tony Galati is back on the pod for EP. 178 as we continue talking about marriage and relationships. What prevents us from having a healthy marriage? It's pretty simple – selfishness and sin. We are constantly battling our natural desire to be selfish and our natural desire to sin. Ultimately it comes down to our relationship with God, if you are not right with God how can you be right with your wife? Men, make God a priority over your marriage, be dependent on Him. When you are dependent on God, your selfishness goes out the window.

“My marriage is NOT more important than my relationship with God, but a healthy marriage is only possible because of my relationship with God." - Tony Galati

Tony Galati joins the podcast for EP. 177 as we start the month of July talking about marriage and relationships. What does a healthy marriage look like? The foundation of a healthy marriage is two healthy people who love God. In Ephesians 5:25 we read, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her.” Men, we are called to love our wives as Christ loved the church, that is a sacrificial love. If we are unable to imitate Christ daily, how can we love our wives well? Everything points back to loving others and being imitators of God. If we live our lives this way, our marriages will be amazing.

Jeff is back on the pod for EP. 175 as shares two more impactful mentorship moments and four traits of a healthy mentoring relationship. There are many ways to impact a man’s life, but we believe the most impactful way is through one-to-one mentorships. From scriptural stories of Barnabas and Paul to Paul and Timothy, this mentorship model of iron sharpening iron still rings true today

Here are 4 traits of a healthy mentoring relationship:

1 - Be resilient – keep your ears and eyes open to what your protege is telling you

2 - Show grit – change can be difficult, but if you show grit to push through it, it will be worth while

3 - Care – if you really care it will show and your protege will want to do the things you are challenging him to do

4 - Get to know them – the more we really know the people we are trying to help the better we will understand their perspective

Put these four traits into practice in your mentoring relationship and both the mentor and protege will be positively impacted. If you are interested in learning more about mentorship and how you can take your next step, visit menofiron.org/thesummit.

Jeff Reimold takes over the the podcast for EP. 174 as he continues the conversation on mentorship. Men, life is hard and the enemy wants to distract you from what it takes to be a godly man. Journeying through life with another man a season or two ahead of you is a critical element to intentionally getting better. I believe that every man should be getting mentored, or mentoring someone else. This episode, Jeff shares with us two impactful mentorship moments in his own life that helped mold him into the man he is today.

On EP. 173 Travis is back as he begins the conversation around mentorship. At Men of Iron we want to help you take your next step on the mountain to know God and know your purpose. Men, we all need another man speaking into our lives. True mentorship is finding someone a season or two ahead of you and inviting that man into a covenant mentor-protege relationship. Mentors guide you, encourage you, pray for you and hold you accountable to your goals. A mentor-protege relationship, is an iron sharpening iron relationship. Stay tuned as we continue this mentorship conversation throughout the month of June. If you are interested in becoming a mentor or a protege, apply today – MENOFIRON.ORG.

On EP. 171 Scott is back as he continues the conversation about solitude, this week focusing on retreat. A retreat is another opportunity to get away and find some space, but with a group of like-minded men. Men, we need to get serious about getting away with a group of friends to talk about things that really matter. A retreat allows you the opportunity to hit pause, talk about your struggles with other men, and put a plan in place for the future. Jesus exemplified this idea of doing life with a small group of men, with His 12 disciples. The spiritual discipline of solitude, and getting away on a retreat with like-minded men will help you become the man God has called you to be!“Jesus exemplified this idea of doing life with a small group of men.” – Scott DavisScott joined the Men of Iron team in October of 2022 as our Iron Rep in Tampa, FL and the surrounding region.

On EP. 170 we continue the conversation around the spiritual discipline of solitude. Men, Jesus is our example for why solitude is so important. Several times throughout the New Testament we read, "Jesus would go to a solitary place to pray." Jesus would get away from everyone to spend time in solitude with the Father. The human side of Jesus needed rest, needed a reset, and most importantly needed to hear from God. If you are living a rushed and busy life, you are proving your lack of confidence in God's direction. Live your life with confidence that Jesus is in control!“Jesus would get away from everyone to spend time in solitude with the Father." – Scott DavisScott joined the Men of Iron team in October of 2022 as our Iron Rep in Tampa, FL and the surrounding region.

On EP. 169 Scott is back as he continues the conversation this month on solitude. Last week we were introduced to the spiritual discipline of solitude. This week we look at practical ways to get away and hear from God. Solitude can feel intimidating or even boring, but it is a learned spiritual discipline. A discipline that ultimately brings you closer to God. There are a lot of distractions in life, a lot of noise, but God meets us in the quiet. To hear from God it takes a desire to want to hear from Him, an intentional time of solitude, and a trained ear. Start small, set aside 30 minutes 3x’s this week to get away with God.During your time of solitude with God this week, use these 4 practical tips:#1 – Ask the Holy Spirit to calm your thoughts and speak to you#2 – Breathe out stress and breathe in the presence of God#3 – Thank God audibly for EVERYTHING in your life#4 – Be still and listenScott joined the Men of Iron team in October of 2022 as our Iron Rep in Tampa, FL and the surrounding region.

On EP. 168 Scott Davis joins the podcast, as he opens up the month of May focusing on the importance of solitude in a man's life. What does solitude mean? Solitude is not merely when you are alone, but an intentional withdrawal from social engagement to quiet the soul. In today's culture with social media and the internet, it is harder and harder to get away and quiet the noise. It often takes something serious or traumatic to realize that things have got to change. Solitude allows you to hear God's voice more clearly. If we don't seek solitude and intentionally spend time with Jesus, we won't become the man that He is calling us to be. It's time to turn off the noise, get away and hear from God!"Solitude allows you to hear God's voice more clearly." – Scott DavisScott joined the Men of Iron team in October of 2022 as our Iron Rep in Tampa, FL and the surrounding region.

On EP. 167 Travis wraps up the month of April talking about the importance of loving your wife well. After your faith, your relationship with your wife should be your second priority. "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her." – Ephesians 5:25. Men, we can't afford to make the mistake of neglecting the most important relationship we have outside of God. If you love your wife, life is going to be so much better! Love is a willingness to give up your comfort to serve your wife, that's what Jesus did. "There is no prayer more powerful than a husband's prayer for his wife." – Travis AlbanesiusListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

If you have a firm foundation you are stronger and better equipped to withstand a hit. Today we are going to talk about the importance of having a firm foundation. In Matthew 7:24 Jesus is telling the people, storms are going to come and the houses that we are building are going to be tested.

When you neglect the little things they are often the most important things, we fall short. The first and best thing we can do is to put our faith in Jesus Christ. How do I build my relationship with God? All you have to do is spend time with Him. As we spend time with Jesus, He gives us strength and power like we have never had before.

Men, it's okay to chase after your goals and aspirations, but don't don't neglect your responsibilities as a husband and father. Focus on the fundamentals.

On EP. 163 Justin closes out the month of March focused on the impact of mentorship. Your culture, your relationships and situations need YOU to make impact and change for God’s glory. But that purpose needs a plan, and that purpose needs to be sharpened and God uses intentional relationships with other men in our lives to do that! Other men to encourage and equip us, to challenge and hold us accountable on the pathway up the mountain. That mountaintop experience is ultimately to know God and be in relationship with Him.

On EP. 162 Justin is back on the pod as we continue the conversation around the impact of mentorship. Last week we talked about your purpose needing a plan, this week we talk about your purpose needing sharpened. I'm sure you are all too familiar with Proverbs 27:17, our core verse, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." Proverbs 27:17. The iron forging process cannot be done with one piece of metal, you need to have another object to sharpen it against. There's a lot of friction, fire and forming – but what results is a more polished and refined tool ready for battle. We need others around us to ask the hard questions, hold us accountable and help us grow. That is what a good mentor does. Men, there is a purpose God has called you to, to impact those around you. And to live out that purpose you need the accountability and encouragement of men who have come before you."Mentors serve as a guide and journeyman who has gone ahead of us a bit so they can be a source of wisdom and support." – Justin WatkinsListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

On EP. 161 Justin is back on the pod as we focus on planning your purpose for what is at stake. We have to be intentional about being the men God is calling us to be! But first you need a plan, without a plan you will be lost on your pathway to purpose up the mountain. We have a natural tendency to run after things for our own good and fail to consider if they are honoring to God. The first step in this planning process is to bring it to God and ask for HIS leading. Take some time this week to disconnect from your schedule and prayerfully, quietly just be still and ask the Lord to speak to you. Take time to evaluate how you are doing in your 5F's - faith, family, friends, fitness and finances. A man who fails to plan, will plan to fail. Your wife, your kids, your friends, your culture need you. "First you need a plan, without a plan you will be lost on your pathway to purpose up the mountain." – Justin WatkinsListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

Whoever that man or men is, pick up the phone today and encourage them and build them up. Shoot them a text, send them a message.

A plaque on the trailhead reads: "Cowards never started, the weak died along the way, and the strong survived and paved the way."

On EP. 154 Justin joins the podcast as he talks about recognizing the visible reminders of God's faithfulness in our lives. Recognizing who God is and what He's doing is NOT an easy task when faced with the many obstacles life throws our way. A practical way to start recognizing God is to start your day with Him – in prayer, in Bible study, reflection. It's easy to focus on what we don't have rather than what do. Recognizing God as the source for those moments will help you start pairing them with Him, and can lead you into ways to mark them for the future. Men, we are responsible to tell the stories of God's faithfulness to our kids and those around us. Recognize, remember and re-tell.There are 3 things I want to encourage you to consider from this practice –1)    RECOGNIZE who God is, what He is doing and teaching in your life2)    REMEMBER those moments by intentionally capturing them3)    RE-TELL those moments to those who need to hear itListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!

On EP. 152 Garret is back in the book of James as he discusses what it looks like to choose a pathway to freedom. Over the past few weeks we've discussed this idea of choosing two pathways when faced with trials. We can choose to consider it "pure joy" when we face trials or we can choose to the path of fear and anxiety. When we choose pathway #1, we persevere and mature and the result is we do what God's Word says. When we take the pathway of anxiety and fear we will ultimately fall to temptation. When we fall into temptation we feel distant from God and ultimately become angry at ourselves. In James chapter 1, James gives us 3 practical steps to a pathway of freedom:James pathway to freedom:#1 – Except the trial with joy and anticipation#2 – Ask God for wisdom in the midst of that trial so we can persevere and mature#3 - We do what God's Word saysListen to the Men of Iron Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Alexa, Google Podcasts and many more!Basecamp is where the adventure begins.

On EP. 151 Garret dives into 2 Corinthians 10:5 as we talk about taking EVERY thought captive and making it obedient to Christ. When temptation hits I can believe the lie that the temptation is too much and succumb to it, or I can take the thought captive and make it obedient to Christ. Men when faced with a temptation or trial we can either GIVE IN in or LEAN IN. Lean into the Holy Spirit, you can’t do it alone! We need the help of the Holy Spirit and the help of others. When we face our trials head on we will be mature and complete and this world desperately needs more mature and complete men.“When temptation hits I can believe the lie that the temptation is too much and succumb to it, or I can take the thought captive and make it obedient to Christ.” // Garret BarbushSUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY.

On EP. 150 we continue the conversation around standing firm in the middle of life's trials. In James 1:2, James is challenging us to "consider it pure joy" when we face trials of many kinds. There are ultimately two ways to respond when life gets hard. We can respond with joy and anticipation, as James writes, or we can respond with fear and anxiety. How you respond to trials determines whether you will strengthen your faith or kill your faith."How I respond to trials determines whether I will strengthen my faith or kill my faith." // Garret BarbushSUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY.

On EP. 149 Garret shares a story about his youngest daughter Blayke facing her fears on a roller coaster. Much like Blayke trusted her father’s leading, all God wants from us is our obedience to trust Him. All God wants is just your obedience to trust Him. When life’s challenges feel overwhelming, just be obedient. That’s what makes the Father proud.“All God wants is just your obedience to trust Him.” // Garret BarbushSUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY.

On EP. 148 Garret is in book of Galatians as he continues the conversation about standing firm in the midst of life's challenges. In Galatians 6 Paul tell us, "Let us not become weary in doing good." Weariness ultimately leads to giving up. Men, this is why mentorship and community are so important. We need others who will hold us accountable and rally around us when life gets hard.

On EP. 147 Garret gives up 5 practical tips on how to stand firm when life is hard. More often than not we find ourselves in seasons of trials and tribulations. Life is difficult and life is hard. But, we come out on the other side of these trials, not in our own power, but because our faith is in something greater. How do we practically “stand firm” in the midst of our trials?“How do we stand firm? We take EVERY thought captive and make it obedient to Christ!” // Garret Barbush5 practical tips on how to stand firm:#1 – Take your thoughts captive, ignore the lies#2 – Be strong by praying in the Spirit#3 – We lean on community, we tell others about it (Ecclesiastes 4:12)#4 – Think eternally (1 Peter 5:10)#5 – Finally we worship – the enemy messes with those he is concerned aboutSUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY.

On EP. 146 Garret shares a story about Mrs. Frey. Mrs. Frey was a family friend and a spiritual mentor to his mom Debbie. Mrs. Frey's friendship and love for Jesus led Debbie to Christ and ultimately her entire family. This story is a perfect example of the power of mentorship.

On EP. 145 we continue the series on "How to be a Successful Protege." In Part 3 Garret talks about the importance of vulnerability and humility in your life and mentorship. We look at the Apostle Paul in Romans 7 and see a man who openly shared his struggles with sin. Men, we must be willing to have courage like Paul. Humility and vulnerability are more than just talking about stuff in our mentorship. True humility shines through when we are both willing to accept the things that are hard and willing to deal with those things. It's time to take off that mask you've been living behind, allow God to break down those walls."True humility shines through when we are both willing to accept the things that are hard and willing to deal with those things." // Garret BarbushSUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY.

On EP. 142 we focus in on marriage and what it looks like to have a God-honoring marriage. Edwin Lous Cole said, "Marriage may be the closest thing to Heaven or Hell any of us will know on this earth." I desire to have a true relationship with my wife. A marriage full of joy, love and happiness. But men, let's not sugar coat it, marriage is hard. The lifelong commitment of marriage should not be taking lightly. Mere talk, as Solomon says in Proverbs 14:23, is cheap and easy and only leads to poverty. Apply that labor to your marriage and your profit will be measured by the amount of fulfillment you and your wife gain. Garret breaks down 9 practical ways to help you start SMART with your wife and marriage in 2023. Let's quit talking as men and put forth the work for our marriages to thrive!

On EP. 141 we finish out our series, "A Man's Voyage." Last week we talked about the significance of anchoring down, today we talk about leaving the harbor. A vessel shouldn’t stay sheltered in the harbor forever. You were created for adventure, for the choppy seas. Regular respites are the only way to stay seaworthy. When you are healthy, you can continually pursue the adventures of life. When God’s Word, prayer, and solitude are a man’s top priorities, then he can stand firm amid storms, and will prevail in leadership and strength.

On EP. 140 we continue our series, "A Man's Voyage." Today on Part 4 Garret talks about the importance of ships coming into the harbor for rest. The same can be true of each of our voyages – As men, like the vessel, we typically find ourselves ‘out at sea’ trying to do good work. We continuously run hard, neglecting our spiritual health. Eventually, the elements wear us down until one day, we are incapable of pursuing the voyage God has designed us for. Before attempting to live effectively or model leadership and strength for others, we must first anchor down into a solid relationship with our Creator.

"Do not dismiss the significance of coming into the harbor for rest." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 139 we continue our series, "A Man's Voyage." On Part 2 Garret talked about how we often make the process of discovering our why more difficult than it needs to be. Today on Part 3 we take a deeper dive into the Great Commission. In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus speaks His last words to the men who were closest to Him. Similar to the greatest commandment, the Great Commission is simple yet powerful. It helps us understand what should transpire when we are in true relationship with Jesus. Loving Him and telling others about Him defined the disciples voyage. What other beliefs, commitments or distractions have held you back from know Him better and being known by Him? Prepare to anchor down into your relationship with God.

In Part 2 Garret talks about how we often make the process of discovering our why more difficult than it needs to be. We don't need to find purpose, our purpose is a voyage. Jesus reveals our purpose to us in Matthew 22:34-38 and Matthew 28:16-20. Men, our purpose is rooted in loving God and loving others. What are you living for?

On EP. 137 we start a series called “A Man’s Voyage.” On Part 1 Garret talks about Simon Sinek and his book, Start With Why. Sinek concluded that every inspiring leader or organization is successful because they focus on “Why.” It’s their bullseye. Most men go through life not thinking about their why, or what their purpose in life is. Men, your “why” is your purpose! It‘s the reason YOU exist. “Why” is what gets you out of bed in the morning. We hope that this episode and series will help YOU find your why.

“Your why is your purpose.” // Garret Barbush

Too often we waste our lives chasing after the treasures of this world, which results in us not chasing after God. Men, the single greatest thing we can do on this earth is to love the Lord our God with all of our hearts, soul, mind and strength.

On EP. 135 we take a look at the life of Daniel. As men we should be drawn to Daniel and how he lived his life. Daniel modeled masculinity, he was a man of prayer, he never let culture defile him. He had a level of intimacy with God that we all should desire. Daniel followed his convictions. In Chapter 10 we see Daniel mourning for three weeks because so few of the people had returned from exile. How do you respond when your expectations are not met? Daniel responds with biblical mourning, he prays. What do the rhythms of your life look like? Is prayer a priority in your life? Don't let the culture shape you, be a man of prayer!

"Daniel went against what culture was saying and did what was right in the eyes of God."

On EP. 134 Garret continues the conversation on the importance of mentoring the next generation. In Judges 2 we read that the next generation after Joshua did NOT have a personal relationship with God. How did this happen? Was Joshua so focused on leading that the didn't even think about mentoring a successor like Moses had done with him? Fathers, are we so focused on leading in other places that we are NOT mentoring our children? Business leaders, are we so concerned with growing the business that we forget to mentor the younger employees? We cannot dismiss the significance of mentoring the next generation, so that they too will know God and know their purpose. And that they will go on to teach the next generation after them.

On EP. 133 Garret talks about the importance of mentoring the next generation. When we look at the life of Moses, we know that Joshua was the man that Moses poured into. Moses knew that the mission that God had given him was going to last well beyond him. Leadership is mentoring the next generation. We have to have a willingness, as leaders, to spend time and develop others. And not just develop the bottom line.

What is the unique Spirit that God has put upon you; humility, hard-work, grit, generosity? Only you can discern that. Men, God calls us each of us to a specific mission. We will begin to restore masculinity and change a culture when we start to live out our leadership styles.

On EP. 130 we are looking at the life of Moses and what it means to embrace mentorship. Men, in order to restore masculinity and change a culture with courage we have to embrace mentorship. We see God saying to Moses in Exodus 17, "Go out in front of the people. Take with you some of the elders of Israel..." We read along further in chapter 18 and see that without the help of of Aaron and Hur holding up his arms, Moses and the Israelites surely would have lost. What does embracing mentorship practically look like? The first step is realizing that you cannot do it on your own, you need to heed counsel, and finally you need a team around you. Don't go to battle alone, embrace mentorship.

On EP. 129 we are back in Exodus 17 as we talk about what it means to "get out in front." When God calls a man to do something rarely is it ever easy. When you are obedient to God's calling and get out in front of the problem, the enemy will put on a full press attack. Are you battle ready? Are you spiritually, physically, and mentally ready for battle? And who is in your corner? Masculinity takes intentionality men, and it takes an army. You can't do it alone.

On EP. 128 we continue the conversation around Moses and restoring masculinity. In order for us to change the culture around us, we have to be pursuing the mission God has called us to. As we see in the life of Moses, the calling often comes with doubt and confusion. When we push through that doubt it turns into a life of obedience. In order to restore masculinity in your own life, you need to push through that process. We need more men pushing through that process to ultimately change a culture.

On EP. 126 we are talking about escaping the chaos and busyness of life and seeking solitude. Jesus often withdrew from the chaos, seeking out a quiet place to pray and talk to the Father. A change of pace and a chance of place will give us a change in perspective. As men we desperately want to slow down and get clarity from the Holy Spirit, but we don't know how to do it. Garret breaks down 5 practical tips to help you escape the chaos and find solitude.

On EP. 125 Garret shares an impactful story about a once in a lifetime opportunity. It was always a dream of Garret's to go to the Masters, specifically with his dad. When the opportunity finally arrived he was allowing financial circumstances to keep him from pulling the trigger. A great friend and mentor had these words of wisdom, "One of the emotions that you never want to live with is regret." Men, God has birthed dreams in every single one of us. But so often we just sit on those dreams and never act. What Holy Inspired dream is God calling you to act on? Don't live with regret, chase after that dream today!

On EP. 124 Garret continues the conversation on mentorship lessons from Paul. As we read through 2 Timothy 4, we see another charge from Paul to Timothy. Men, following Jesus is the hardest thing you will ever have to commit to, but it's an adventure! Paul gives Timothy 5 lessons to help him in his faith journey. Preach the Word, keep your head up, endure hardship, tell others about Jesus, and go and do the work. This faith journey is never easy, but it's time to get to work.

On EP. 123 Garret continues the conversation around Paul and Timothy and the lessons learned about mentorship. Paul understands what he is gifted at, as an apostle and a teacher, and he's willing to to serve no matter the cost. He know's his gift sets and is confident in them. Men, as mentors we have to understand what God has gifted us in and we have to use those gifts to serve and mentor another man.

On EP. 122 Garret talks about the power of prayer and how for a mentorship to be effective it must begin with prayer. In 1 Timothy 2:3 we see Paul saying to his protege Timothy, "I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers." Paul was CONSTANTLY praying for Timothy. We should be praying constantly for each other for our mentorship to be effective. Men, let's walk in tune with the Spirit, constantly remember each other in prayer, and go to bat for our mentor or protege!

On EP. 121 Garret continues the conversation on the lessons learned from the mentorship of Paul and Timothy. This week we dive into 1 Timothy 6:11, Paul's final charge to Timothy. Paul gives Timothy 5 clear instructions from mentor to protege – flee from evil, pursue godliness, fight the good fight of faith, think eternally and command humility. Men, we have to respond to these things for transformation to take place in our lives. Let's not overcomplicate mentorship, let's not overcomplicate our lives as Christian men. Let's flee from evil and pursue godliness!

On EP. 120 Garret begins a conversation on the lessons learned from the mentorship of Paul and Timothy. This is one of the most impactful lessons on mentorship that we see in scripture. As we dive into 1 Timothy 4 we read about five lessons that Paul encourages Timothy with. Mentors, remember that you can't encourage the man across the table from you to read scripture if you are not also reading scripture!

On EP. 119 Garret dives into 2 Peter 1 as he talks about finding our identity in God. Men, if we are being honest we know that we struggle with finding our identity as husbands, fathers and leaders. We read in 2 Peter 1:3 that God's divine power gives us EVERYTHING we need. So we have to make it a daily priority to pause and look vertically, to God. When we look vertically we begin to understand that God has given us all that we need for life and godliness. Our identity is in Him. We pray that this episode we challenge you to pause and look up!

On EP. 118 Garret is back as he shares an incredible story about a man named Nate. Nate was in attendance at the Men of Iron Dinner on April 19th in Lancaster, PA. Invited by a friend, Nate showed up that night weary and broken down. As Devon shared his own story of transformation on stage, Nate leaned over to his friend and said, "That's me!" It prompted the guys at his table to pray for Nate on the spot. Two weeks later Nate was in the Men of Iron office to talk to our team and ended up giving his life to Jesus! Change begins with prayer!

On EP. 117 Chad is back as we dive into 1 Samuel 14:1-2. We see Jonathan and his armor-bearer making a decision to advance on the Philistine outpost. As Saul found shade under a pomegranate tree, Jonathan couldn’t just sit idly by. He knew he had to make a decision to advance and move. Despite the climb through tough terrain, Jonathan took action. If we are going to be men who climb the mountain of manhood, there are moments in our lives where it is critical to make a move. Don’t sit around waiting for life to happen. Get out from the comfort of our own pomegranate tree. Pray about what action do you need to take. It’s time to move!

On EP. 116 Chad is back as he continues the conversation in 1 Samuel 13. The Israelites were outnumbered and outgunned. The Philistine army was well equipped and had a strong advantage over the Israelite army. Much like the Israelites, most men feel ill-equipped to climb the mountain of manhood. The truth is, we often feel under equipped because we believe certain things about ourselves. Do not settle, let’s climb the mountain together and push back the darkness of inadequacy!

They are climbing this mountain with virtues of masculinity and grit. Not consumed by the media or politics, these men are consumed by God and their purpose. These men are embracing the manhood adventure.

On EP. 114 Garret is back as he breaks down what it took for Jesus to fulfill his mission on the cross. We often fail to remember that Jesus was human with human emotions. Jesus endured pain physically and emotionally. He was a man with a mission, and he never flipped into "God mode" when things got tough. Jesus let nothing distract him from departing for Jerusalem. He knew his time was near. As a man of God, you too have a mission. What is your mission for today?

On EP. 113 Chad we are in the book of 1 Samuel 13 as we talk about what it takes to be a man who patiently waits on God. In 1 Samuel 13:9 King Saul was told by Samuel to wait, but he gets impatient and offers up a burnt offering, disobeying God. He wasn't believing that God was going to show up. Impatience clouds our judgment and it ultimately brings conflict with God. How can we become better men? By not chasing after instant gratification. A patent man can lead others.

On EP. 112 Chad is on the pod as he talks about what it means to be an unreasonable man. Men, these are the times to step up and do the things that God wants us to do. Because we often overcommit in other areas, we do not have the freedom to be men that are engaging with the issues of the day. If you are a Christian man, you are called to be a righteous man. We need to become unreasonable about the things that matter.

On EP. 110 Garret finishes up the series on reliable men from 2 Timothy 2:2. Today we turn our attention to the hardworking farmer. The farmer knows how to work hard and when to work hard. When it comes to the hard-working farmer it's the crops that he produces that fuel his body. He knows he must put in the work to put food on the table. To be a reliable man, you have to take responsibility for your own life. Lazy men don't make good proteges, overworked men don't make good proteges. But farmers, men who know when to rest and when to work, make excellent proteges.

Reliable men follow the rules, they follow the rules of marriage, business, fatherhood and more. We SHOULD play the game to win, but compete within the rules.

On EP. 108 we continue the conversation on reliable men from 2 Timothy 2:2. Garret dives into verse 3 as Paul talks about the first reliable man, the solider. The solider wants to please the commanding officer, he stays focused on the battle. He stays focused on Jesus. He does not get sidetracked with ambitions in the civilian world. This world desperately needs more reliable men who stay focused on the mission at hand, like a solider.

When we have more men focused on ending our lives with Jesus saying, "Well done good and faithful servant," our culture will change one man at a time.  // Garret Barbush

It's time to stop making excuses as to why you aren't mentoring another man. Find the reliable men in your life, teach them, train them, move them forward and entrust them to do the same for someone else.

We break down a story in Acts 15 between Paul and Barnabas where they agreed to disagree and moved forward with love and respect. In relationships disagreements are inevitable. Let's be tolerant men amid an intolerant world.

"Men, if we are going thrive as men, we need to learn how to simply allow ideas to collide and understand that this should not derail us but it should put us on course for what God has called us to do." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 105 we are talking about the significance of a conversation over a cup of coffee. Garret shares a story about a conversation he had with a friend that created a ripple effect of generosity. In a fast-paced we rarely make time to slow down and meet face to face with a friend and talk about life. But when we do, God uses these conversations to sharpen us and to make the world around us better. It's why at Men of Iron we believe so strongly in mentorship. When men meet face-to-face and hold each other accountable to being the best they can be, their lives, marriages, families and communities are transformed.

"It's amazing to think what God can do when two men sit face to face and have a conversation." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 104 we are talking about the greatest quarterback of all-time, Tom Brady. ICYMI, Brady retired last week as not only the greatest quarterback of all-time, but arguably the greatest athlete of all time. Men, there is a cost to being the best. There is a sacrifice that a man needs to make to be fully committed to a cause, a purpose, a passion, a job, etc. If you want to be great than there are things you have to sacrifice along the way. Tom Brady counted the cost and it was a cost that he was willing to pay because he wanted to be the best. As Christ followers, what can we learn from Tom Brady? We need to be the best men of God that we can possibly be and be willing to pay the price.

"We need to be the best men of God that we can possibly be and be willing to pay the price." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 103 Garret continues the conversation in the book of Joshua as he breaks down what it means to be obedient men of God. In Chapter 3, God exalts Joshua in the eyes of Israel, he promotes him in a leadership role. Joshua was obedient to God and his circle of influence grew because of it. People were not going to follow Joshua without knowing that God was with him. If we truly desire to lead and grow as men, we need to understand that people will only follow us when they know that God is with us. Often our best witness as men is to show how we can lead through the difficult things in life. Joshua was obedient and sensitive to the Holy Spirit, God was with him. Men, it's not just about being strong and courageous, but true leadership is being obedient to God and pursuing the things that He is calling us to do.

"People will follow you, if you follow God." // Garret Barbush

"And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I will begin to exalt you in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses." // Joshua 3:7

On EP. 102 Garret dives into Joshua 1:6-7 as he talks about what it takes to be men of strength and courage. Men, God's Word has to be the foundation of our lives. When we put God at the center and meditate on His Word daily, that is where we truly find strength and courage to lead well.

"Great leaders do things others are not willing to do." // Garret Barbush

"Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them. 'Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.'" // Joshua 1:6-7

On EP. 98 of the Men of Iron Podcast, Garret is back as he continues the conversation on distractions. When we get distracted we lose focus on what is really important. Men, this is why establishing guardrails is so vital. What guardrails do you have in place to help keep you focused on the priorities in your life?

"Guardrails will direct and protect, but they will not get you to where God wants you to go." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 97 of the Men of Iron Podcast Garret joins the podcast to talk to us about focus and distraction. What is the biggest issue that men are facing today? Is it pornography, work, marriage issues, fitness? At Men of Iron we believe the number one issue men are facing today is FOCUS, or a lack thereof. Distractions and lack of focus often leads to an ineffective, an unhealthy life. Listen as Garret provides practical tips to help you find accountability, put guardrails in place to limit distractions, and rediscover your focus.

"Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is." Ephesians 5:15-17

On EP. 96 of the Men of Iron Podcast we are talking about missing the mark. The flesh and Spirit are at war for our hope, peace, and future. From soul to soil, we have all been tainted by sin. The forces of sin’s nature frustratingly render our self-willed attempts at freedom beaten and still “missing the mark”. Alas, there is grace for those struggling with sin’s grip and the fleshly struggle. This episode will help you gain your bearings and knock off the rust!

On EP. 84 of the Men of Iron Podcast Chad talks about deescalation and how we should respond in the middle of relational conflict. How do you handle conflict with a co-worker or with your wife? Do you respond with grace or do you go on the defensive?

In the face of conflict your body responds immediately, your heart rate spikes. You feel a sudden surge of adrenaline. The fight-or-flight response is triggered by the release of hormones that prepare your body to either stay and deal with a threat or to run away to safety.

But, there is a short in the wiring. The bible calls it sin or iniquity. We can be triggered without just cause, and we can trigger others without cause. We often escalate situations because we don't feel safe, there is an underlying fear. Chad provides practical tips to help you deescalate and resolve conflict with grace in any and every situation.

"Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord." // Hebrews 12:14, ESV

On EP. 80 of the Men of Iron Podcast Chad sits down with Vic Verdier as they discuss classic attributes of manly men. The life of a modern man is not about being a Spartan or a Viking.

Vic was in the French Navy for 10 years and he had the opportunity to train numerous soldiers in a multitude of topics, including Close Quarter Combat, skydiving, long-range weapon shooting, first aid and explosives.

On EP. 72 of the Men of Iron Podcast, Chad is back with Part 2 of our discussion on the "5 Ways to Fight Discouragement & Confusion." Part 2: Find Your Purpose, will help you get unstuck and fight discouragement and confusion by finding the WHY, PURPOSE, (the WIND) that will motivate you!

The wind is God given and personally experienced. Simon Sinek calls it your “why.” It’s the thing that makes your heart come alive. It’s the place where longings and dreams come true. The wind has been referred to as “flow” and I like to think of it as a mystical way of living an unforced life. A key to remember is patiently waiting for God to move is not the same as passivity.

Men, we go through stages of discouragement and confusion, or feeling stuck and powerless in our situation.

What a dull life it would be without "resistant friends" calling us to go further and deeper in life.

On EP. 65 of the Men of Iron Podcast, Garret and Chad continue the 4-part series on the four pillars of growth. Last week we talked about the intellectual side of a man's life and this week we talk about the spiritual side.

Men, spiritual growth is a process, but it is also a journey through which we open our hearts to a deeper connection with God. We are not bystanders in our spiritual lives, we are active participants with God!

"These storms that we are going through are temporary. But with a solid rock, we get to experience eternity in heaven. That's a gift that's given to us. So we have to look at, what am I living for in the temporary? Don't put your hope in that stuff, that house is going to fall." // Garret Barbush

On EP. 64 of the Men of Iron Podcast, Garret and Chad continue our 4-part series discussing the four pillars of growth. Last week we talked about the physical side of a man's life and this week we talk about the intellectual side. An intellectual man leads with his head and heart, he wants facts and truth. If you desire to be a man of God, you need more than heart!

Men, growing the "intellectual pillar" is not being intelligent, smart or academic. It's about becoming a better version of yourself. Engage in fruitful conversations, learn from those around you, pick up a book, learn a new skill.

"We don't have a shortage of information; we have a shortage of men who wisely apply that information." C. N. Zueck

EP. 63 of the Men of Iron Podcast, Garret joins Chad to talk about physical fitness and the importance of taking care of your body. The guys provide practical advice to creating realistic and attainable fitness goals.

God wants us to perform well in the areas of life. He wants us to glorify HIM with our bodies. And let's be honest men, we don't want to be the dad that can't run around with his kids because he's out of shape.

"Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, (ESV)

Goal setting IS and should be invigorating for men. Setting goals helps trigger new behaviors, helps guides your focus, and helps you sustain that momentum in life. Goal setting gives a challenge and challenges sharpen our intentionality. While your fitness goals should challenge you, they should also be realistic and attainable. Set yourself up for success!

“When it comes to fitness goals, set yourself up for success. What’s a realistic goal that will stretch you?” // Garret Barbush

On EP. 61, Chad talks with featured guest, Blake Brewer. Blake is on a mission to help ONE MILLION dads write at least one well-written, meaningful, lasting Legacy Letter to their children. Blake lost his dad Larry, when he was 19 years old, in a swimming accident in Hawaii. His dad had just finished writing a "legacy letter" to his kids right before his death. Blake's mom presented the letter to him a few hours after his dad's death. His dad had planned to give him the letter on their trip to Hawaii. 

As CEO and founder of TheEndurance.org and the LegacyLetterChallenge.com, Blake’s mission is to empower fathers to connect with their children, lead their families, and run their God-given race with endurance.

Blake has 3 children, all under age 5. He absolutely loves being a father. As he leads his family and his children, he draws from many mentors, but none more important than his late father Larry.

"This process helped me organize my thoughts and feelings towards my children in a way I've never done before. Now my children have this letter they will cherish for the rest of their lives and it's helped me become a better father." - Legacy Letter Challenge Participant

"You are 65% more likely to achieve your goals when you write them down on paper. And you are 95% more likely to achieve them when you share them with someone else, when you invite accountability in, and when you have a regular meeting with that person. Accountability is key.

The Bible talks a lot, especially in Proverbs, about why having a gameplan is so vital and that God blesses those who adequately prepare.

EP. 53 of the Men of Iron Podcast is here! Today we are talking about the significance of protege-driven mentorships and why we believe it is so crucial for the protege to take responsibility for the mentorship.

"A mentor's job is not to be responsible for the mentorship. This is a protege-driven experience. I am not a mentor to somebody if I am dragging them along. A protege-driven mentorship is when a protege takes responsibility for his growth, for the process, and he is willing to do whatever it takes. That's what mentorship is!"

"There's a huge opportunity for businesses to establish formal mentoring programs. Not just for their employee's career paths, but from a wholistic approach. How am I helping my people grow in their lives? It's more than just a job, it's more than just a career."

EP. 50 of the Men of Iron Podcast is here, as Steve, Garret & Justin talk about multiplication through mentoring. We take a look at the life of Jesus. Jesus mentored 12 men, poured his life into them, but that was NOT the end of the story. He sent these 12 men out to do the same, to multiply. As men, as believers, we are called to do the same.

"We have to be willing to teach others. It's more than just teaching, there's this investment side of it. I'm actually going to invest my life into you and be willing to invite you into my journey. Why should we mentor, why should we multiply? Because Jesus shows us very clearly in scripture."

On the podcast we talk about this idea of 5F combos. How can we create goals that combine multiple F's? Whether faith and family, or faith and fitness, or family and fitness. A great example would be working out with your wife, or working out with your family. This is a great goal that encompasses family and fitness.

On Episode 46, Steve and Justin talk about how to find a protege. Who is somebody in your life - a friend, co-worker, family member - who you want to intentionally invest in through a mentorship? Each and every one of us has influence, are you stewarding that influence well?

"We are all being discipled and we are all discipling people around us. Whether we want to or not. We are bringing that influence into everything that we are doing. Are you being intentional about who you are discipling?"

The Men of Iron Podcast is back with the SEASON 2 PREMIERE‼️ Justin & Steve talk about faith goals and how vital it is for men and mentorships to build on that foundation of faith. To read God's Word, spend time in prayer and seek solitude. The ultimate goal for men is to be in relationship with God. We discuss what it looks like to create your faith goals and practical ways to live those goals out.

"It's like any relationship you have, you have got to get to know the other person. God is an active and alive presence. How do I get to know God? What does that look like? Before you're married you go on dates with your wife, finding out what she likes, what she's into, you get to know her. The same is true with God. You're getting to know God and what he's like. What's on his heart and what he wants for you. When that's the focus it changes how you approach it."

EP. 42 is here!! Loss and Lament (Part 2) feat. Clint Watkins.

We continue the conversation with Clint about losing their son Eli and why it's okay to lament and mourn when bad things happen.

We also dive into these questions; how does the Church address lament? Is it okay to be angry at God? How do you walk alongside a friend or family member dealing with loss?

Eli's story is a powerful one. We pray that Clint, Jillian and Eli's story will continue to be told and that it will help, not only their healing process, but many other individuals and families who hear it.

"We sink into this reality that Jesus is going to restore everything. He will reverse the pain. But, where it kind of goes off the rail, I think, is that we think that means that we should be happy when hard things happen. That we have to go through it with smiles. Hope isn't an emotion, hope is a belief. The scriptures allow us so much permission to be sad, confused, hurt and sorrowful and not have to rush to this place of joyful praise."

Brothers of Merit Co-Founders Taylor Dooley and Brandon Collier join the podcast for EP. 36! We talk about brotherhood and why it is so vital for men to do life together. As men we think we have to do it all on our own, and when we ultimately are NOT able to we see it as a weakness.

Brothers of Merit believes that brotherhood, through Christ, allows men to become the best version of themselves and it helps find the encouragement, accountability, and challenge that every man needs.

"No man wants to sit there and say hey I'm bad at this. Men don't want to share and display their vulnerabilities and weaknesses. But we need to do the complete opposite. You are stronger when you can talk about your weaknesses. That's why we need to surround ourselves with Godly men."

Many of them don't need a physical healing, it's a relational thing. If we can give students a place to belong, where they know that they're loved, that they're cared about, that will lead to a conversation about Jesus."
