Men's Alliance

Are you a good person? That sounds like an easy “yes”… until you take Jesus seriously. In Mark 10:18, Jesus responds: “No one is good except God alone.” That one line exposes something massive: our worldview, our theology, and what we believe about human nature. Are people basically good… or basically fallen? In this episode, we unpack: • What Jesus meant (and didn’t mean) in Mark 10 • Why this ve...

In this episode, we sit down with Mohamad Faridi, an Iranian believer who grew up inside the Islamic Republic of Iran and later came to faith in Jesus Christ. He shares a powerful story of: • Growing up in a family marked by Islamic martyr honor • Training that shaped his fear of death • The moment he heard the gospel—and everything changed • The cost of conversion: rejection, danger, and running...

This mission brief continues the conversation from last week’s episode: No Head Higher. The point is simple: don’t put any human on a pedestal — not your lead pastor, not your counselor, not your tribe leader, not me. Your authority is God, and Scripture is the standard. But what about “church authority”? That’s where the conversation gets deeper. In the New Testament, leadership is consistently d...

Tyson breaks down what’s happening across K–12 schools, college campuses, and even workplaces — where speech, faith, and basic reality are being pressured, chilled, or outright censored. We talk about how these conflicts actually start (often not “top-down”), why the loud minority can steer policy, and how dads can lead with wisdom, courage, and truth. You’ll also hear practical ways to engage wit...

In this Mission Brief, we walk through how Scripture actually lays out authority, why pastors are not meant to sit above other believers, and why placing any human on a pedestal is spiritually dangerous. This isn’t about disrespecting leaders — it’s about putting authority in the right place. Men will disappoint you. Pastors will fail. Influencers will fall. That shouldn’t shake your faith — unles...

Most dads can get by managing how to lead when kids are little… but teenagers are a different battlefield. In this episode, Tom Pfanner from Dads Who Lead breaks down how fathers can rebuild connection with teens, lead through the eye-roll stage, and create a real rite of passage that prepares young men for responsibility. Tom shares his personal story, how he rewrote his leadership when his son p...

Most people think prepping is about water, food, medical gear, or a bug-out plan. But if you prep alone, you’re setting yourself up to lose everything the moment you need to sleep, get sick, or get injured. The #1 prep is brotherhood—a tribe. Ecclesiastes says a cord of three strands is not easily broken. In a crisis, that’s not just spiritual… it’s practical. Men’s Alliance doesn’t just build str...

Alex McFarland reveals powerful stories of revival breaking out among teens, a former Muslim dramatically renouncing Islam for Christ over the phone, and why America must wake up to the growing threat of radical Islam while standing boldly for biblical truth on Israel, manhood, and the Gospel. We dive deep into the cost of following Jesus (no prosperity gospel here), the danger of watered-down eva...

Why do we celebrate Christmas every year—especially if you’re not even sure what it’s about? Most famous people are remembered for what they did. Jesus is different. He’s remembered for who He was: God in human form—the Creator stepping into His creation to rescue us. The birth of Jesus wasn’t random tradition. It was the beginning of a rescue mission that leads to the cross… and the resurrection....

2025 was a defining year for Men’s Alliance — new states, new countries, national events, rallies, FTXs, hundreds of new tribes, and thousands of men stepping into leadership. But the real story isn’t the numbers. It’s the lives changed around campfires, at kitchen tables, on rucks, and in quiet conversations no one ever planned. In this episode, Goose and Shadow talk honestly about what God did f...

A lot of churches look healthy on the outside: great coffee, great music, great signage, and a message that feels uplifting. But what if the very thing that makes a church “easy to attend” is the same thing keeping Christian men from growing? In this episode, we expose the seeker sensitive church model—how it became popular, what it does well, and why it becomes spiritually dangerous for mature be...

Tim Moza — Northeast Senior Strategic Manager for TPUSA Faith — sits down with us to unpack the shockwaves happening inside the American church in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s martyrdom. From over 200,000 people stepping forward to get involved, to pastors finding their courage again, to the seeds of a genuine revival, Tim shares what God is stirring across the nation. We talk about wokeism infiltra...

We all make mistakes—sometimes big ones—and too often we fail to learn from them. But every now and then, God teaches us a lesson with far more gentleness than we deserve. In this story, Sheepdog shares a moment with his 10-year-old son that could have ended in a hospital visit or a totaled car. Instead, it became a powerful reminder of how God disciplines us with grace, protects us even when we m...

What happens when a simple idea—men working out around a fire and following Christ—jumps across the ocean into post-Soviet Europe? In this episode, we sit down with Pro from Braveheart Tribe in Budapest, Hungary to talk about how Men’s Alliance has taken root in Europe and why Hungary might become a hub for Christian men’s ministry. Pro shares his story of growing up in the Netherlands, moving to...

Most Christians have heard arguments about denominations… But almost no one stops long enough to ask: Are these essentials — or are we pushing people off a bridge over non-essentials? In this mission brief, we talk about the tragic tendency inside Christianity to divide over topics the Bible never calls essential. Whether it’s baptism methods, alcohol, Bible translations, end-times theories, speak...

Goose sits down with Jason “Eagle” Dickinson, a pastor from Albuquerque, New Mexico, whose world was flipped upside down in one moment of Holy Spirit conviction. After witnessing broken families and men drifting spiritually, Eagle cried out to God for a strategy—something REAL that would ignite the hearts of men in his church. Six months later, in a packed conference lobby in Dallas, he saw a boot...

“Science disproves God.” You’ve heard it. Your kids hear it at school. Atheists repeat it like it’s settled fact. But here’s the truth: science only exists because early scientists believed in an intelligent Creator. Newton, Galileo, Kepler, Bacon — the fathers of modern science — all believed the universe was rational, ordered, and discoverable because a rational God created it. In this episode,...

Men in children’s ministry… is that weird?? Most churches act like kids’ and youth ministry is “for the ladies.” But what happens when godly men step into kids’ and student ministry on purpose? In this episode, Goose sits down with Warrior, Coach, and Joe McAndrew from LCBC to talk about: • Why it feels weird for men to serve with kids • How the feminization of the church left a gap that men must...

Most Christians misunderstand apologetics. They think it’s arguing, intellectual snobbery, or something only “elite Christians” do. But Voddie Baucham said it best: “If you think apologetics doesn’t work, you don’t know apologetics — and you don’t know me.” This episode breaks down what apologetics actually is: 👉 explaining WHAT you believe 👉 explaining WHY you believe it 👉 giving EVIDENCE for...

Seeker (John Roach) grew up without a steady mom, battled weed and alcohol, endured a brutal breakup, and stood on a balcony edge—until God met him and brotherhood rallied. In this raw conversation we unpack the difference between drinking buddies and true brothers, how Scripture and community break isolation, and why “you’re never too far gone.” Hear how Seeker is now planting seeds, serving, and...

Christians often say, “God told me…” or “God gave me a word.” Is that the Holy Spirit’s guidance—or are we in danger of adding to Scripture? In this Mission Brief we unpack why a closed canon matters, how to honor the Spirit’s leading without elevating private impressions to God’s authoritative Word, and why Revelation 22:18–19 is a serious warning. Bottom line: God already spoke clearly in the Bi...

“God doesn’t want to take the savage out of you — He wants to direct it.” In this episode, Goose sits down with Joel Hughes, founder of Tri-Hope, to unpack what it really means to be a savage for God. They dive deep into: • How God wired men to be warriors, not choir boys • Why your aggression isn’t sinful — it’s sacred when directed • How one challenge from a kid in juvenile detention led Joel to...

“Politics matters because policy matters because people matter.” Sheepdog challenges Christian men to stop sitting on the sidelines and start leading — especially when it comes to voting. Too many Christians avoid political discussions, claiming “God is in control.” But Scripture shows that God’s sovereignty doesn’t erase our responsibility to act, protect, and lead. In this episode: • Why Christi...

As Christians, we don’t follow blindly — we follow evidence. In this Mission Brief, Goose challenges believers to push back against false narratives with truth and reason. Following the death of Charlie Kirk, many have smeared his name with unproven accusations of racism — but the Bible calls us to seek evidence, not echo mobs. In this message you’ll hear: • Why “the one who makes the claim must p...

Dr. Gary Habermas—the foremost living expert on the Resurrection of Jesus, architect of the Minimal Facts argument, and longtime professor at Liberty—opens up like never before. In this conversation, we go far beyond standard apologetics: • His 20-year battle with doubt (and how it finally stopped) • Personal tragedy and grief after his wife’s death—and how faith held • Near-Death Experiences (NDE...
