691: Make It Your Ambition

Send us Fan Mail Make it your ambition. We don't put those two words next to each other. Ambition means you're building something loud, a name, a platform, a business, a reputation. Quiet is what you get accused of when you're not doing enough of that. As we have this conversation I want us to consider: "What does a quiet life actually build, over twenty or thirty years, that the loud life never quite manages to?"

690: Keeping Our Focus on The Purpose Not The Platform

Send us Fan Mail There is nothing wrong with influence. There is nothing wrong with having a large platform. There is nothing wrong with being known. There is nothing wrong with being gifted. The problem comes when the platform becomes more important than the message. When the messenger becomes more important than the Gospel. When people come to church because they want to see someone rather than because they want to encounter God. When we start building ministries around personalities instead of building people around Christ.

689: When The New Wears Off

Send us Fan Mail On today's PoM podcast I am going to share some of the things I have learned when it comes to creating communities with men and the challenges to get them to be consistent. Consistency is not flashy. It doesn’t post well on social media. But it is the difference between a man who talks about faithfulness and a man who becomes faithful. Paul told Timothy to “practice these things, immerse yourself in them, so that all may see your progress” (1 Timothy 4:15). Progress is visible only when the practice is consistent. A single day of prayer is good. A decade of daily prayer forms a man who can weather storms without losing his footing. A consistent man becomes trustworthy. His word carries weight. His family knows what to expect from him. God uses consistent men because they can be counted on when the assignment is long and the applause is gone Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Join The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herd Secure your spot for Tribe XIX: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xix Support the show

688: 10 Ways To Change The Way You Read Your Bible

Send us Fan Mail On today's PoM podcast I am going to share 10 ways we can change up the way we read our Bible and how it impacts our day. To often I have fallen into the trap of reading the Bible the same way everyday and then wondering why I get stagnant. Or using my personal worship time as a chance to find a verse that I can use later in the day with others instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to really work on me. None of the items on this list are earth shattering, and they are all things I am trying to implement in my own life. If we will give our spiritual life some freshness perhaps it will be what we need to have more fruit come from our lives.

687: A Story 30 Years In The Making

Send us Fan Mail On today's PoM podcast I am going to share an incredible experience I had recently where decades of relationships all came together in about a 10 foot space in the most unexpected way. We serve a God who declares the end from the beginning. A God who has made it clear that before we were known He had formed us, so when we see how He brings these stories together all we can do is give glory to Him.

686: The Power of A Simple Invitation

Send us Fan Mail On today's PoM podcast I am going to talk about 3 specific invitations I received when I was far from God. There were three people that invited me to things that, looking back I can't believe that they did. Because they extended the invitation and I accepted it, it put me in a position to surrender to Jesus and spend my days walking with the Lord.

684: Passing On What You Did Not Recieve

Send us Fan Mail On today's Podcast we take a look at how we can pass on to the next generation the things we did not recieve but now recognize we should have. It is impossible to be all things to our children, we are going to come up short in some or many areas. What we want to do is take ownership in the areas where we know we are lacking and should not be. You don't need to have every skill, but when it comes to spiritual leadership we need to make sure we pass on what we know they should have.
