I've been going through it. In this brief episode I talk about how God has brought peace and a refresh when I've been holding on to bitterness and grief.
In this episode I finish up chapter 6 in Judges. This is the journey of Gideon from weakest in his home to Mighty Warrior. In the conclusion of this topic I highlight the journey and everything that can be learned and gained in Gideon's story and how it is a great representation of the masculine journey to restoring our hearts and partnering with God.

In this episode I go over the goal and purpose behind this podcast. In a way it is a response, to what I feel God is wanting me to share with other men my journey as I continue to uncover the “ancient path”, in hope that it will encourage other men in their journey as well. Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the Lord: “Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls.
