As men, we often face uncharted territory and unfamiliar terrain in our lives. This can manifest itself in any number of ways in our lives – from unexpected circumstances to everyday events that we face. As we seek to grow into the leaders, fathers, friends, and mentors that God has called us to be, we can expect to be barraged with attacks from the enemy. That first step of a journey into the unfamiliar or unknown can seem daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Through UNCHARTED, we are here to equip you with the tools you need to conquer the unexplored. We will look to those who have been there before to provide guidance to help us along the way.
Raising kids to follow Jesus isn’t easy—but you don’t have to do it alone. Join a panel of real dads for an honest, practical, and encouraging conversation about weaving faith into everyday family life. From teaching your kids to pray and read the Bible to helping them understand why it all matters—even when you’re stretched thin and don't know where to start—this episode will challenge and equip you to lead your family with purpose and grace.

Learn about the transformative power of reading the Bible for Christian men. Why is it so important? And why is it so difficult to stay consistent? In this episode, we tackle why it is absolutely essential for Christian men to be reading the Bible, why it is so difficult for most of us, and how to build a simple practice that will transform your life. We include practical tips for integrating Bible reading into daily routines, personal stories of how Scripture has impacted our lives, and even specific ways to make sure you are getting the most out of your Bible reading.
=============================
Show Notes
=============================
👍 Consistency Over Motivation: Emphasize the importance of consistency rather than relying on motivation. Just like with physical exercise, you won't always feel motivated, but consistency will yield long-term results.
👍 Routine Integration: Attach Bible reading to a routine you already do. For example, listening to the Bible while driving to work or reading it at a specific time each day.
👍 Use of Tools: Utilize tools like a plan on the Bible app, which will help keep you on track.
Community Support: Engage in Bible reading with other men to keep you accountable and to share what you learn.
👍 Practical Adjustments: Find practical ways to stay awake and focused, such as reading while riding a stationary bike if you tend to get tired.

All of Christ for all of life. As Abraham Kuyper famously said at a university opening in 1880, “There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, ‘Mine!’” Where have you let the world around us convince you to keep your faith to yourself? Learn from Zechariah the scope of God’s sovereignty over all of human existence, what he asks of us, and how we can repent and return to him. From our July 2024 Men’s Gathering.

If you were asked to write a book about your life, probably the easiest part would be figuring out the chapter titles and breakdowns. It’s not hard for any of us to remember distinct seasons of our lives. There would be chapters of hurt and others of joy and victory. In this episode, we’ll discuss the chapters in our lives that have made us the men we are today. Justin talks chapters with his friend Christian Nielsen whom he met in performing arts years ago. They’ll talk through messy and powerful chapters of life and how God used it all. Then we’ll do a fun "chapters" movie draft where the guys draft movie franchises.

Marriage is one of the most rewarding experiences in life but it also is a lot of hard work. We weren’t created for marriage, rather we find that marriage was made for us. The picture of Jesus and his bride (the church) lived out in a day-to-day balance of dying to self and service.

Welcome back to Uncharted as we begin our few episode push into STORIES. We are driven by them, moved by them, and drawn to them more than we know! Entire organizations and workshops and seminars are designed around teaching us how to produce them well. Industries are built around them and almost every art piece can be reduced to one. This Men's Channel is designed to help us navigate the unforeseen territories in life, and what is more relatable than a good story.
With that in mind, today, we have something fun for you: a bunch of stories from the road from musicians. Tune in today as we invite Tyler Wells in to share some heartfelt, bizarre, and funny stories from his previous life in a band, and Danny and Justin jump in with some fun stories about gigs in the past as well!

Listen in as Colin and Micah are joined by Chris Goble and Matt Winter today to discuss what should be at the center of our identities.
And stick around for the second half of Today's episode as Colin, Tyler, and Chris take on 1996 in our latest THE DRAFT segment.

SHOW NOTES
After years of living in exile in Babylon, a prophecy from decades before is finally coming to pass. God has begun to fulfill his promise to restore the nation, land, and temple to Israel. Matt and Neil dive into the first chapter of Ezra. It’s nations conquering nations, and God is working behind it all. Did you know God used Cyrus the Great and the Medo-Persian empire to work out his own purposes in the world? Why is Israel living in exile? Who is Cyrus King of Persia and why is he important? Can we trust God’s promises?
SHOW NOTES
After a 2020 of a year, we all feel disoriented, displaced, and dejected. That’s exactly how the Israelites felt after their nation was destroyed, their temple ransacked, and their people exiled. Watch how—after years of waiting—God finally fulfills his promise to restore their nation, temple, and land. Learn how God is in control even amid physical opposition, political manipulation, and years of waiting…so…much…waiting. Listen in as Matt Winter and Neil Eukel dive into the book of Ezra and some of the last recorded events in the Old Testament in this first season of the Men’s Bible Study Podcast.
