What if we lived our lives like we really believed our choices mattered?  Like our lives mattered?  Like God was real and mattered?  If we did, our choices would be better.  They wouldn't be self centered.  We'd put others first.  Everyone's life and communities would mater.  Because they do.  How do you live your life?  Does it matter?  During this episode, our conversation turned a bit.  It revealed some hurts that prevent us from living like our lives matter.  Hurts come from so many people, places, and things.  Church hurt is one of the most painful.  As a parent, we often think our children don't see things.  That's so untrue.  Our children see everything.  They may not understand what they see.  But, when they do, the scars can run deep and long.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net, and 7 a.m Eastern / 4 a.m. Pacific on WJRG Radio (Connecticut) www.wjrgradio.com.    The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts, and iHeart Radio.

The future is open for all of us.  It can be whatever we believe it can.  The key is the belief.  What we believe is the center of who we are and where we're going.  Who the surround ourselves with is equally as important.  Toxic people suck and have no place in our lives.  Friend or family, there's no room in our lives for toxic waste or negative thoughts.  Unconditional love and faith is paramount in everything we do.  Love doesn't mean we have to be stay in contact/community.  Some you have to let go.  And as we do, we let go of fear.  Our future is bright... it we let it be.    Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net, and 7 a.m Eastern / 4 a.m. Pacific on WJRG Radio (Connecticut) www.wjrgradio.com.    The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts, and iHeart Radio.

Life since the Pandemic has been different, to say the least.  Families had no clues then, and even less now.  I may seem like life is getting back to normal, but what is normal now.  The only thing normal is change.  Family relationships have been strained during this time.  Before that too, if the truth be told.  Life... requires that we get used to change, be patient with each other, and listen.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts, and iHeart Radio.

Caeden and I continue our conversation about life, choices, and the not having any more excuses to live life fully.  Our conversation turned when he asked me about what I thought about his life.  Parents, it great to let our children as us question.  The key is that we answer them truthfully and transparently.  Tune in and listen to our    Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

There's always something to complain about.  Something to blame our failures and shortcomings on.  Why don't we take responsibility for our actions.  It's vitally necessary our growth and wellbeing.  It takes time and dedication, but it can be accomplished.  It must be to grow and mature into the person God cre     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio.

Change is the only constant in our lives.  Seconds pass.  Breaths, inhale and exhale.  Moment-by-moment passes and we take some many of them for granted.  We're not entitled to the ones we're using, not to mention the next.  We need to cherish each.  It is essential to be present in the very moment that we're in.  We need to live like the each moment is the last one we'l every have.  This is a pain lesson I knew when my mother and then mother-in-law passed, but tragically learned when my wife died.  I've been reminding myself and teaching my sons, and anyone who'll listen ever since.  Join us.  Listen.  Learn.  Grow.  It will change your life.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio.

Almost since the beginning of time, people have been talking about the end of time.  I am not sure when that is, but I do know that I have be know and be alert for the signs.  In between time and in the meantime, we need know how to identify False Teachers.  This brief series is the message that gave recently at Weapons of Mass Destruction's Tuesday night study.  This is an Atlanta based ministry lead by Apostle WaRenda Williams.  She has been an guest on The RZNGMEN Show, and it was an honor to be able to speak at her ministry.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio.

Ever have issues with relationships?  The same issues keep popping up?  Ever think that people don't really know you?  You're probably right, because you didn't let them know you.  I mean really know you.  So often we put up facades to protect ourselves, and use stereotypes to judge others.  Neither are good, and leave us in places of misunderstanding, confusion, and frustration.  We need to speak up and set healthy boundaries and expectations with everyone you are in contact.  Join the Boyz and I as we talk about who we are.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio.

What are we showing the world, versus what do we think we're showing?  It should be the same, but for many, it's different.  That difference matters.  It leads to misunderstandings, frustrations, and regret.  We have to find out what matters to us, and live that out consciously.  It takes effort, and intentionality.  This is something that I want my sons to learn early in life.  They should not need to correct this 30, 50, or more years in.  Do you know if you're sending the message that you truly want sent?  Ask someone who you've allowed to know you and you'll find out.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

The Boyz and I finish our discussion about race, racial slurs, and the concept of S.L.U.R:  Speak Life Undo Racism. It was an awesome topic to speak with my sons about.  As parents, we need to do this more than just when the lights are brightest and the streams are going.  This is an every that thing.  We need to remain vigilant and attentive to their thought and needs.  If we aren't the world is.  The world view is not one that is healthy, nor do I want my children's children's children to have.   Information used in this episode: SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Racism SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Rhetoric SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Reasons that keep us apart Proverbs 22:6 TPT - Dedicate your children to God     and point them in the way that they should go,     and the values they've learned from you will be with them for life. 1 Peter 4:8 TPT - Above all, constantly echo God's intense love for one another, for love will be a canopy over a multitude of sins KTLA5: https://ktla.com/news/local-news/moreno-valley-cheerleaders-say-they-were-targeted-with-racial-slurs-at-game-against-temecula-valley-hs/ Temecula Patch:   https://patch.com/california/temecula/temecula-valley-hs-responds-allegations-racial-slurs   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Racial SLURs seem to be so commonplace in today's society.  But how is that possible?  Home training, that's how.  One of my sons said that it was the lack of good or any home training.  The sad part is, good, bad, or without, training still training.  What we model out for our children is what they learn and imitate.  If you want to get a view your parenting, listen to your children speak.  Watch then live and interact with their friends.  Check their social media.  Especially their fake accounts used to troll people.  Afraid of what you'll see?  Many of us parents should be.   I this episode, we step away from tell our past and deal with out present and future.  It was a bit uncomfortable at point in our conversation.  Why?  Because it was out truth that we don't normally discuss outside our home.  In this cancel culture, speak something that is unpopular can have it's consequences.  But, the truth will make us free.  The key is to know the truth.  So much information comes from unqualified sources.  People just typing or saying something so of then that they would never say to or about the intended person if they were face-to-face.  I am certain, many of those words would never have crossed their minds with the cyber distance between them providing their confidence to speak so disrespectfully.  I am not speaking against our right to freedom of speech.  What I'm saying is that it's not what you say in so many cases, but rather how you say it.  We need to Speak Life and Undo Racism, Rhetoric, Reasons that separate us, etc.  We need to return to our first love and teach love.  That will cover a multitude of evils/sins.   Information used in this episode: SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Racism SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Rhetoric SLUR:  Speak Life Undo Reasons that keep us apart Proverbs 22:6 TPT - Dedicate your children to God     and point them in the way that they should go,     and the values they've learned from you will be with them for life. 1 Peter 4:8 TPT - Above all, constantly echo God's intense love for one another, for love will be a canopy over a multitude of sins KTLA5: https://ktla.com/news/local-news/moreno-valley-cheerleaders-say-they-were-targeted-with-racial-slurs-at-game-against-temecula-valley-hs/ Temecula Patch:   https://patch.com/california/temecula/temecula-valley-hs-responds-allegations-racial-slurs   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

The 2021/2022 school year is upon us.  Those that are fortunate to escape school, still can't avoid responsibility some person, place or thing.  It is up to us to be ready, patient, consistent.  Our children need us.  We need us.  Besides, we're adult in the relationship.  This doesn't mean that we don't get mad or disappointed in our children.  It means that we express it, deal with it, and move on from it.  If we know better we should do better.  If you've listened to The RZNGMEN Show any length of time, then I know you know better. So it's time to do better.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Responsibility can be defined as the state or fact of being responsible, answerable, or accountable for something within one's power, control, or management (Dictionary.com: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/responsibility).  We all need to be responsible for at least ourselves.  If we're going to be a parent, then we're going to need to learn to be responsible for something else before it has to be someone else.  Life changing experiences occur when we learn to consider someone else's wellbeing above our own.  This is what my youngest sons are learning now with their 2 young puppies.  Listen in as they share what they've learned in a very short time.  Their lives have changed for better to the point that even they have notice.  As a dad, I could not ask for too much more.  There aren't many times as parent that I get to experience the outcome of a tough lesson that I'm trying to teach.  Here, lesson learned.  This one however, will continue to teach for years to come.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

We continue our conversation about what we're afraid of.  I am removing "Terrified" from our vocabulary and replacing it with "Terridependence".  "Terri-dependence" or being "Terri-dependent" is casting our cares on God, because he cares for us.  1 Peter 5:7 TPT - If you bow low in God's awesome presence, he will eventually exalt you as you leave the timing in his hands. Pour out all your worries and stress upon him and leave them there, for he always tenderly cares for you.  There's peace and freedom in doing this.  I challenge everyone to try being "Terri-dependent.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

What you afraid of?  Ever think about why?  My sons and I talk about this during this episode.  I learned a lot.  I know they did because I could see it in their eyes.  I know that we need to do video for this show moving forward.  I need you all to see what I see.  I need them to see what I see.  There's so much learning when we listen.  Are you listening?   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Our summer is full swing.  Inside, outside, and upside down.  This week we talk about what distance learning has done to us, gaps in our learning, and expectations for the upcoming year.  We even talk about how the death of their mother prepared them for what we've experienced the past year or so.  After trauma of losing their mother, everything else is easy to adjust to and deal with.  Even COVID.  I'm not saying that to provoke any more trauma, but the truth is that enemy is always after us anyway.  Any on the days that he isn't, we're struggling with ourselves anyway.  It can often feel the same sadly enough.  Join us on The RZNGMEN Show.  C'mon.  Laugh, cry, and grow with us.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Summertime is our favorite time of the year.  Especially since so many areas are opening up again.  There are options that weren't an option a year ago.  But, moment of everyday can't be playtime.  Nice try, but it's not healthy, realistic, or positive.  Oh, just me huh?  OK.  Before fun can be had with electronics, there are some things that need to be done.  I encourage my sons to get the tasks done first, then I can't say much about what they do with the rest of their day.  Join us as we discuss how that looks and feels in our home.  Do they like it?  Hate it?  Listen to what they have to say about our Summer Rules.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Tough love today from my sons for parents.  Love is still love nonetheless.  We need to listen to our children.  They are repeating what we say to them.  Hmm... maybe that's why some parents don't want to hear them.  Just me?  OK.  I hope it's not just me try get and keep my family together.      Here are some tools that my sons and I have useful: Listen without judgment:  Every wants and needs to be heard Create a safe place for you children to ask questions and interact.  We may not always like or agree with the questions or comments made, but the should be made in the confines of our own home.  This will allow for open dialog.  Helps everyone to get on the same page. Apologize when you're wrong:  No one's always right, or wrong.  Apologize sincerely, correct the behavior, and keep is moving'.  In other words:  "Clean up your side of the street" No judgement:  Speak life if every circumstance, especially when it hard.  Life and death is in the power of the tongue.  It is not what you say, but how you say it that counts. Give everyone a break:  Extend grace.  Sometimes people have bad days.  Sometimes we have bad days.  We need to be known for who we are, not for the moment we messed up. Be open and willing to change:  Life's about how we adjust to changing circumstances.  Changes are going to come.  How we respond to them determines how far, and where we go.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

What does being a father mean to?  Is it important?  Do you feel some kinda way when you think about the concept of a father?  Being a father has been my primary job over the past 8 years.  I had to learn how to shepherd by son's hearts.  I had to heal, and help them heal.  I had to lead, and I listen.  I couldn't afford to lose anything or anyone else.  But, that was out of my hands.  Thankfully, I have not physically lost any of my sons, but I have lost family and people I thought were friends.  I wanted my sons, and men, to know that if I could make it, anyone can.  I wanted to bring a message of hope to men.  More importantly, I want men to have tools to help them heal, learn, and grow into the fully developed men they were intended.  It's a process.  We're all works in process.  We have to trust it.  Trust the process.     Here are some tools that my sons and I have useful: Listen without judgment:  Every wants and needs to be heard Create a safe place for you children to ask questions and interact.  We may not always like or agree with the questions or comments made, but the should be made in the confines of our own home.  This will allow for open dialog.  Helps everyone to get on the same page.

I often find that I downplay my abilities.  What I do is not as good everyone else.  In some cases, true, it's not.  But, not every case.  I can do all things through give me strength.  I can speak the things into my life that are not currently not as though they already are.  It's about perspective.  It's about out belief in who and whose we are.  Once we believe, it changes everything.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Focusing on the miracles of God keeps us moving forward and focused what's important.  God's important.  His plan for us is important.  The steps He has ordered for us are perfect, though they may feel bananas and outrageous.  Perfect none the less.  My sons and I have been through a heck of a lot, but we don't look like what we've been through.  There's so much healing we've been through.  So much grace we've shown.  Even more mercy.     Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Looking back over our life, we had some good days, and some really, really tough ones too.  But, if we didn't go through them all, we would never be right where we are today.  These lessons have helped us realize that the pressure and heat we've been under over these past years is shaping us into who and what God wants us to be.  We just need to trust Him and his process.  We can punch out early.  He's not finished with us yet.  Coal only becomes a diamond if it remains under pressure and heat over the required time.  I don't want to have gone through all of this just to burnout like coal.  I want to reflect God's love and glory like a finely cut diamond.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

My 4 youngest and I continue our conversation about life without their mother.  We talk about their feelings about me dating and even the 1st time Rhyen stopped breathing at out next door neighbors house.  Join us as we share our story of healing.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

So many take everyday for granted.  Like we're entitled to an unlimited supply.  Is there ever enough?  No, but we have not choice as to how much time we get.  We do however have a choice as to what we do with every moment we do have.  We've learned that painful lesson first hand.  Join us as we talk through our grief and some our experiences over the past 8 years with ur grief.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

We continue our conversation with Jaxen, Evan, and Caeden.  Each sharing our memories and desperately trying to put the missing pieces of our broke memories together.  What one of us knows, the others don't.  Some even got the answers to questions that they've always wanted to ask and get answered.  Healing is a process, not a destination.    Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

I'm joined this week by Jaxen and Evan.  They were 4 and 6 when their mom died.  There was a point that we could have just stopped and given up on this project.  We could have just decided to leave our pain and thoughts buried inside.  But, we wouldn't get free if we did that.  I want to be free.  Most of all, I want me sons to be free.  I want you to be free too.  Join us on our journey through freedom.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

Hearing your life told through someone else's voice is so wild.  How did they know that?  When did you see this?  How did I live through what I just said?  Those are the questions I'm left asking.  But, I know it was nothing but the grace of Almighty God that we are here right now, sharing Our Story.  Healed by the blood of The Lamb and power of our testimony.   Radio show airs at 11 a.m. Pacific / 2 p.m Eastern on WKBY 1080 AM (Chatham, VA) and www.wkby1080.net The RZNGMEN Show can also be heard on Spotify, iTunes, and iHeart Radio. 

I knew this day would come when we'd tell our story.  But, I didn't know we'd tell it to each other 1st.  Join my sons, Caeden and Rhyen, and I as we begin sharing our story of loss to liberty from each of our own perspectives.  I'm learning a lot about myself and my sons during this process.  It's such a blessing.  You won't want to miss it.

Mental health is an essential. thing.  Many of us disregard its importance until we find ourself in a crisis.  I'm so glad that I have come to realize the importance and benefit.  It was great to have the opportunity to share time and space with another of my Life Coaches.  Some people ask me when do you have so many?  Because, they are some of the best people that I trust to speak into my life on the coaching level.  Today, I Greg & Gina Billings from Billings family coaching join me.  At the end of this episode, we have a special sneak preview of The Framewerk.   To reach Greg & Gina at Billings Family:  https://www.billingscoaching.com IG & FB:  @billingscoaching
