Man of God (Part 3)We love stories of fighting men because God has wired men with an impulse to protect, contend, and persevere, but Scripture redirects that impulse away from destructive battles and toward the good fight of faith. A man of God fights not for ego or anger, but by fleeing sin, pursuing godliness, taking hold of eternal life, and courageously confessing Christ for the sake of his own faith and the faith of others.Sermon Preached by Chris Lewis on January 18, 2026Foothill Church exists to glorify God by living as disciples of Jesus who make disciples of Jesus.https://foothill.church Learn about our For the Sake of His Name 2-Year Discipleship Journey:https://foothill.church/FTSOHN

Two decisions hit Washington this week that could have massive consequences for families nationwide. On the judicial front, the Supreme Court is weighing whether states can protect women’s sports. At the same time, Congress is debating the extension of Obamacare subsidies, this time without Hyde Amendment protections for the unborn. Aaron, David, and Mike explain what’s at stake in these two major ideological battles. After the news, Dr. David Closson joins the podcast to unpack new survey data from George Barna and the Family Research Council, revealing a troubling gap inside America’s churches. While many regular churchgoers say they want clear biblical teaching on issues like abortion, sexuality, and religious freedom, foundational Christian beliefs about God, sin, and salvation are rapidly eroding. When churches go silent, culture fills the gap. Barna’s research shows that all seven “cornerstones” of a biblical worldview are in decline, even among committed believers. David explains what’s driving this collapse, why it matters for the Church’s witness, and what pastors and Christians must do to reclaim biblical clarity in an increasingly confused culture. TAKE ACTION Now is the moment to speak up using CCV.org. Through our Action Center, you can quickly contact Senators Moreno and Husted to encourage them to defend the Hyde Amendment. The process takes less than a minute! Call on Ohio's US Senator Moreno and US Senator Husted to oppose taxpayer-funded abortion in any “deal” on Obamacare subsidies. More About Dr. David Closson David Closson, Ph.D., serves as the Director of the Center for Biblical Worldview at Family Research Council, where he researches, writes, and speaks about life, human sexuality, religious liberty, and related issues from a biblical worldview. He is the author of FRC's Biblical Worldview Series, which seeks to help Christians and Christian leaders apply the teachings of the Bible to difficult moral questions. Dr. Closson's work has appeared on Fox News, RealClearPolitics, National Review, The Council for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, Decision Magazine, WORLD Opinions, The Gospel Coalition, Townhall, and The Christian Post. He is the author of Life After Roe: Equipping Christians in the Fight for Life Today (B&H Academic, 2025), co-author of Male and Female He Created Them: A Study on Identity, Sexuality, and Marriage (Christian Focus, 2023), and co-author of the forthcoming book Worldview Basics: A Worldview Curriculum for Students (Fidelis Publishing, 2026). Dr. Closson is a regular guest on Christian and conservative media outlets, including Washington Watch, FRC's national television and radio program heard on more than 800 stations across 48 states. He also speaks at conferences, seminars, and churches across the United States and abroad, addressing moral and cultural issues from a biblical worldview. Dr. Closson is a graduate of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (Ph.D.), The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div., Th.M.) and the University of Central Florida (B.A.). He lives in the Washington, D.C. area with his wife, Abby, and their son, Daniel.

Man of God (Part 2)A man of God doesn't just flee sin out of fear or avoidance; he runs toward something better by actively pursuing the life God calls him to live. According to Paul in 1 Timothy 6:11, that life is marked not by trading one vice for another, but by continually following after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, and gentleness as a lifelong pursuit of Christlikeness.Sermon Preached by Chris Lewis on January 11, 2026Foothill Church exists to glorify God by living as disciples of Jesus who make disciples of Jesus.https://foothill.church Learn about our For the Sake of His Name 2-Year Discipleship Journey:https://foothill.church/FTSOHN

Godly Men Rising: A Call To Biblical Manhood with Evangelist David BradyIn this episode of the Pastoral Thoughts Podcast, I sit down with evangelist David Brady to discuss a much-needed theme in our day: godly men rising.We talk candidly about the spiritual crisis facing men, the absence of biblical leadership in homes and churches, and why intentional gatherings like this upcoming Virtual Men's Summit January 12-13th are so necessary. David shares the heart behind the summit, what burden led to its creation, and why calling men back to Scripture-shaped manhood is urgent in this generation.The conversation also highlights what men can expect from the summit—two days of biblical preaching, practical exhortation, and encouragement from ten different speakers, all aimed at strengthening men to lead with humility, courage, and faith.  Register today at:  www.godlymenrising.com

Marriage was never meant to be about selfish fulfillment or competing for power. In this episode, we break down God's design for marriage — what He actually expects from husbands and wives, why men and women are different by design, and how those differences are meant to complement, not compete.In a culture that increasingly rejects biblical roles and promotes self-centered relationships, we explain why Christian marriage is about self-denial, sacrifice, leadership, love, and unity, not ego or personal comfort.✝️ COACHING WITH DAVID! https://imdavidhammond.com✝️ COACHING WITH MALLORY! https://biblicallyfeminine.com

As we finish our theme on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood, we look at what leadership looks like for godly men and women.  What roles does God have in store for each of them?  What can leadership look like inside and outside the Church?

In today's culture, many men are passive, silent, and afraid to lead — but Scripture calls Christian men to something far greater. In this episode, we talk honestly about what it means to be a godly leader and husband, not according to culture, but according to the Bible.We discuss biblical masculinity, spiritual leadership in the home, courage without pride, and how men are called to love, serve, and lead their families with conviction and humility. This conversation is not about domination or ego, but about responsibility, obedience to Christ, and laying down your life as a servant leader.Whether you're married, preparing for marriage, or simply seeking to grow as a man of God, our prayer is that this episode challenges and encourages you to step into the role God has called you to.✝️ COACHING WITH DAVID! https://imdavidhammond.com✝️ COACHING WITH MALLORY! https://biblicallyfeminine.com

Modern Conservatism is collapsing, and it isn't because of the Left. It's because the Right has abandoned biblical order, biblical loyalty, and biblical leadership.In this episode of Uncommon Sense, I'm examining how our so-called conservative leaders have traded Christianity for political convenience, elevating foreign loyalties, unbiblical theology, and female authority over God's clearly established design. When prominent figures openly choose Judaism over Christianity and Israel over America, we must ask: What exactly are we conserving anymore?Scripture is clear: Christianity is a patriarchy with God as its Head, Christ as King, and men called to lead in righteousness. A movement that rejects this order will inevitably rot from the inside out.This episode is a call to return to:Christ over cultureFaith over foreign allegianceGod's elect over globalist prioritiesBiblical men over platformed female personalitiesIf Conservatism wants to survive, it must first repent.--https://www.bible.com/

"I have to talk to you guys today about something I don't want to talk to you about."

In this episode of 'Holy Disruption' hosted by Heather Schott, Senator Josh Hawley discusses the controversial concept of 'toxic masculinity' and defends the traditional values of biblical manhood. The conversation explores how modern culture attacks masculinity and the family structure, pushing against the destructive ideology that equates all masculinity with being inherently toxic. Senator Hawley highlights the importance of men stepping up to their divine roles as leaders, protectors, and servants in their families and communities. The episode also addresses the rise of feminism, LGBTQ movements, the transgender ideology, and their impact on masculinity and family values. As a solution, both Heather and Senator Hawley call for a revival of biblical principles to restore the family unit and spark a transformative awakening in America.

Today we're trashing feminism some more, because it obviously deserves it. Feminism is not only unbiblical, it's extremely destructive for all of society. We'll talk about why Christian podcasters like Allie Beth Stuckey shouldn't defend their feminism while claiming to follow Christ, and why Christianity itself is a patriarchy, by God's design. It's time for biblical men to stop waiting for permission from feminists and take back the authority God gave them. We'll also discuss more of the Trump administration's mistakes, including this ridiculous new 50-year mortgage idea that proves how far from wisdom our leaders have fallen.

This is the second episode in our two-part series on biblical manhood. In this conversation, Albo Esilaba is joined again by Joby Martin, pastor of The Church of Eleven22 and author of Stand Firm and Act Like a Man. Together, they go deeper into practical ways of living out godly manhood in everyday life—whether you're a dad, a leader, or a man of influence in any setting. Joby and Albo challenge the divide between “sacred” and “secular” work, reminding us that all vocations are God-given assignments and that every man has been sent into the world as a frontline minister. They discuss how aligning your work, business, or leadership with biblical principles can create environments that impact the kingdom and help people flourish. They also explore how to raise the next generation of men, emphasizing that more is caught than taught. From praying scripture over your children, asking heart-level questions, and parenting toward relationship, to surrounding your teens with godly adult mentors—Joby gives practical tools for modeling and passing on godly manhood. Along the way, they remind fathers to give themselves grace, to never give up, and to embrace the responsibility of leading well. This episode is a powerful reminder of the need for men who will stand up, take ownership, and live out biblical manhood in every area of life.

Today on the No Regrets Podcast, Albo Esilaba is joined by pastor and author Joby Martin from The Church of Eleven22 for the first episode in a special two-part series. Joby shares from his new book, Stand Firm and Act Like a Man, a biblical guide to what Scripture says about who men are and how they are called to live. Instrumental in discipling men, Joby currently leads a church in Jacksonville, FL, where over 20,000 people gather in person each weekend—and many more join online—to discover and deepen their relationship with Jesus. His passion is to help men stand firm in their faith, live out their calling, and follow Jesus in a culture that often makes true biblical manhood feel harder than ever to find. In this conversation, Albo and Joby explore what makes a godly man and what it takes to become one. They discuss what biblical manhood is—and what it isn't—while addressing the confusion and cultural noise surrounding manhood today. Joby reminds men that they are not alone, and that Jesus invites them to take the journey His way. This powerful conversation will challenge and inspire you to start or strengthen your walk as a godly man. Come be transformed in this two-part series as we learn what it means to stand firm and act like a man. Resources Mentioned: The Church of Eleven22 Stand Firm and Act Like a Man by Joby Martin

Q: I am sure you have asked and answered this before and here I am asking again. This may be several questions because I can't parse it to something simple due to its complexity and the rigidness that's felt within the church in regards to this (on either side). Can women be pastors? Can women be given the title of pastor? I did search and the title pastor is defined as a person leading a congregation or church so my thinking is no. However, what if the title is that of pastor of children's ministries etc? However that brought another question to mind - which is why give a woman the title of pastor and not as director? There are two groups of people - some say yes and use scripture and some say no and use Scripture.  Paul in Corinth with Pricilla, Phoebe and a few others are all part of the thinking that women can be in authority and leadership. The argument from the yes side is that scripture is being taken out of context and that 1 Timothy 1 is a prime example of how women can be in authority (there is also question of who actually wrote Timothy 1) Acts 18 is also used as a stance that women can teach/be in authority over men. Maybe part of the issue here is the definitions of what Pricilla was doing in Acts 18 vs what a pastor really does. But Phoebe was considered a deacon so that would assume she had some leadership capabilities.  The flip side to the stance that women can't be is how are we to mother/teach our sons? Are women allowed to be teachers? You can see the slippery slope down I am sure. So, could you please do a deep dive into this? I am struggling as I am running into this more and more within churches. One church we were attending came out and said women could be deacons and then another called a woman a pastor but they also had director roles - which made it more confusing as a person attending an event. Summary In this episode, Dr. E draws from both Old and New Testament passages to help listeners navigate the often-confused conversation about women in ministry by distinguishing between the office of elder and the gift of pastor-teacher. He explains that the New Testament uses terms like presbuteros (elder) and episkopos (overseer) interchangeably to describe a church office reserved for men, while the role of pastor-teacher is given as a spiritual gift, not an office. Women are clearly permitted to pray and prophesy in the church (1 Corinthians 11), yet Paul prohibits them from teaching or exercising authority over men (1 Timothy 2). Dr. E also explores how churches use titles like “director,” “minister,” or “pastor,” and why clarity in terminology is essential. He highlights examples like Phoebe in Romans 16 and Timothy's upbringing under his mother and grandmother to show the important role women play in ministry, even if not as elders. Men and women share equal value before God, yet Scripture outlines distinct roles within the church for the sake of order and faithfulness. Takeaways: Scripture affirms equal value of men and women while assigning distinct church roles. Elders/overseers are reserved for qualified men according to the New Testament. The gift of pastor-teacher is not the same as the office of elder. Women are permitted to pray and prophesy but not to teach with authority over men. Phoebe and other women in Romans 16 show the vital role of female ministry. Clarity in church titles like “pastor” or “director” avoids unnecessary confusion.

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we confront the horrific attack at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. The shooter, Robert “Robin” Westman, once walked those same halls as a student. Years of unchecked mental illness and spiritual rebellion ended in bloodshed.America is in denial. We refuse to face the truth: the transgender movement is built on a Satanic lie. No one can change the sex God gave them. Pretending otherwise doesn't heal broken souls, it destroys them and puts others in danger.Christians must speak plainly. Love does not mean affirming sin or confusion. Love means pointing people back to Christ, who alone gives us our identity. Until our nation repents and turns back to God, tragedies like this will only increase.Pray for the victims and their families.--https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

We kick off a new season of Young Adult Ministry at West Ridge with a series on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood.  Each month, we will explore key characteristics that help people become godly men and women.  This month, we start by looking at the thing we pursue more than anything else.

Today's episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson is a carefully crafted full-on rant about two awful cultural failures, Donald Trump and Taylor Swift. Both, in their own ways, are failing the next generation and pushing the normalization of pedophilia. Trump refuses to release the Epstein list or hold powerful pedophiles accountable. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift flaunts her naked body on her album cover marketed to an audience that includes young girls who are already being tempted by a society pushing them toward OnlyFans. Feminism has clearly failed. We need to bring back the biblical patriarchy, AKA Christianity.At some point, we have to stop asking why is all of this happening and start living biblically individually, in our families, and as a society. For the sake of our own wellbeing and (far more importantly) the protection of our children. If we can't even agree to safeguard their innocence, what are we doing? Why aren't we protecting the children?--https://bakerbookhouse.com/featured/the-brand-sunday

In this episode of Live Free, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Cunningham kick off the "Love Life" series from a brand-new podcast studio set with a timely conversation: Is biblical manhood the same as toxic masculinity? Drawing from the Song of Solomon and Ephesians 5, they unpack God's design for masculinity, marriage, and sex—highlighting the call for men to lead with humility, not dominance. From breaking down Christ-like leadership in a family to analyzing the viral Sydney Sweeney and her American Eagle ad, this episode challenges cultural norms and calls men to live with purity, strength, and sacrifice. This isn't about hot takes, it's about holy living.  

How should Christian men understand their identity and calling in light of Scripture rather than cultural expectations?

I felt the presence of God telling me that I have designed you for something else. I've given you a specific skill set for some reason, and I want you to be of use in the world in a different way.”He transitioned from a successful finance career to using his media skills for a higher purpose.This divine intervention led to the creation of We the People, a platform to honor God through his work.Gates emphasizes the importance of prayer and seeking God's guidance in every aspect of life.[14:21] Defining We The PeopleThe podcast featured high-profile guests like R.A.

The three biblical manhood is a real thing. Biblical manhood is responsibility, leadership, sacrifice, humility, and it's especially love.”He emphasizes that the pressures of today's culture undermine Christian values, making it even more critical to nurture the family unit.Gates argues that the survival of the nuclear family is essential to the preservation of society as a whole.[28:13] Challenges and Spiritual WarfareGates shares his experience of facing negative messages and attacks, acknowledging the spiritual warfare at play.Rather than engaging with hostility, Gates prays for those who send harmful messages.He believes that shining light in the darkness is key to overcoming these challenges.Prayer and unwavering commitment to truth help him stay strong in his mission.[31:40] Growth Through Spiritual StruggleSince launching We the People, Gates has faced numerous personal and professional challenges.These struggles have strengthened his faith and resolve to continue honoring God through his work.He emphasizes the importance of prayer in overcoming obstacles and navigating spiritual growth.Gates remains hopeful, knowing that God is using these experiences to refine his purpose.[37:31] Bringing Intentionality Into Family TimeFamily dinners are a sacred time for Gates and his family, where they intentionally connect with each other.They adjust their schedules to ensure this time is prioritized, even amidst their busy lives.This practice helps reinforce the values they want to instill in their children.Gates believes that quality family time is essential for nurturing a strong, faith-driven family dynamic.[39:35] The Path Forward through Faith and FamilyGates is encouraged by the increasing number of people who are standing firm in their beliefs.[40:47] Gates: “I have never in my life felt more optimistic and more proud to be an American. And I think more people are saying that every day, and specifically to the Christian faith, there are converts happening like it's never happened before.”Trust in God's timing and remain open to His guidance.The future will be shaped by our continued commitment to living out our faith and standing for truth.Gates encourages listeners to stay engaged, knowing that the collective strength of faith-filled people can create lasting change.About Gates GarciaGates Garcia is a passionate storyteller, media founder, and voice for faith-driven values in today's culture.
