In this powerful and honest episode, Doug is joined by eight returning guests—men who've previously appeared on the podcast—to explore a topic we all face: fear. Each man shares personal stories of moments when fear showed up in their lives and how they found the strength to move through it. The group dives into a wide range of fears, including: Fear of abandonment Fear of drowning Fear of failure Fear of public shaming And perhaps the most haunting fear of all: reaching old age and saying, “If Only I had tried…”  The conversation goes beyond storytelling, offering insights into how choosing to respond, rather than react, to unexpected challenges can significantly reduce fear. It's a reminder that self-awareness and conscious choice often make the difference between being paralysed by fear or growing through it. This episode is both grounding and inspiring—a must-listen for any man ready to face his fears and reclaim his power. info@dougbeitz.com dougbeitz.com facebook.com/dougbeitz instagram.com/dougbeitz https://neurovizr.com buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the decade-long journey of writing and publishing my book—a path filled with twists, setbacks, and moments of doubt. As someone who is dyslexic, writing has always felt both vulnerable and empowering. I share the fears I faced, the rejections I endured, the moments I lost trust in myself—and how I ultimately found the courage to keep going. I hope this episode inspires you to continue to pursue your creative endeavours. I hope the book inspires you to keep caring for yourself in holistic ways. The world needs us all to be showing up with more capacity and compassion.

Sometimes the thing we long for most is the very thing we fear. Love. Freedom. Joy. These are powerful forces that ask us to stay open, even after we've been hurt. And yet, when we've experienced loss, especially deep soul loss, it can feel impossible to let the light in again. But healing begins when we choose to open, even just a little. Roni is here with us today. She's grieving the loss of her beloved horse, Yo-Yo, and questioning whether she can ever open her heart again to another. What surfaces in this conversation touches on vulnerability, self-trust, and her incredible connection to animals, especially horses. We explore how her past relationships, early wounds, and moments of rejection have shaped her sense of worthiness, and how fear has been quietly riding in the front seat of her life, steering her away from joy. In this episode, we offer Roni a gentle yet powerful invitation: to renegotiate her relationship with fear, to begin practicing animal communication, and to let her heart call in what it truly desires. If you've ever found yourself stuck between grief and longing, or wondered whether it's safe to open your heart again, I hope this reading reminds you that courage doesn't mean the fear disappears; it means you choose to keep going anyway.

This was not always a conscious endeavor for me, yet she pulled at my heart and led me on adventures far and wide and wild. She has taught me to live by spirals and wheels and cycles. To live each day as a ritual, knowing that I am the source of my life. Everything comes FROM me and that my obstacles are actually the path to living an even greater and wilder existence. She has shown me that true LEADERS rally for and with life, not against it.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The human heart has an extraordinary capacity for resilience. Even in our current era—where young men grow up bombarded by toxic influences that rob their innocence and shatter their moral imagination—something remarkable is happening. They're awakening to the sacred.Mike Pacer, president of Five Stones and author of "Prayers for Catholic Men," joins Jack to explore how prayer is transforming young men's lives against all cultural odds. Pacer shares his own journey of faith—leaving behind a successful career as a trial attorney when God simply said "leave"—and how surrendering to divine guidance led him to a more authentic life.The conversation centers around three foundational spiritual practices for men: beginning each day on your knees in surrender to God, viewing temptation as an invitation to prayer rather than a cause for shame, and committing to love the next person you encounter. These simple yet powerful habits create a framework for spiritual growth amid today's distractions.Purchase "Prayers" For Catholic Men by Mike Pacer Contact Jack: info@jp2renew.orgJacks Blog on Substack: https://johnpauliirenewal.substack.com/If you're interested in being a sponsor of the Become Who You Are Podcast, please email us at Info@JP2Renew.orgSupport the show, Sign up for our Newsletter: https://jp2renew.org/Support the show

Something of an experiment this week: We've collected some of the best moments and biggest ideas from our April episodes. 

For marine biologist, writer, and lay theologian Rachel Jordan, the ocean has never just been a backdrop—it's been a living metaphor for her relationship with God. Raised in a Christian household, Rachel's wonder at tide pools and the mysteries of the deep developed alongside her budding faith. She explains how the intrigue of peering into tiny, brimming tide pools mirrored her fascination with glimpses of God's character: “There was something vast and impressive that laid beyond, that I wanted to explore.” Just as the tide pools hinted at whole worlds awaiting discovery, Rachel found that both faith and science propelled her deeper: “Being a Christian has propelled me further into a desire to understand science ... and being a scientist has, I believe, made me a better Christian.” Rachel may study the ocean's wonders, but her path has been anything but fearless. “I've had this recurring nightmare ... of getting eaten by sharks ... I was just terrified of it,” she confesses. And yet, her marine biology career meant close encounters with those notorious creatures were not just possible, but sometimes necessary. What's remarkable is how God met her in those moments of dread—not by removing the fear, but by transforming it. As she recounts, “The beauty is that God took this thing that I was afraid of and converted it to open-mouthed wonder.” Rachel's transparency normalizes fear as a companion to growth, whether learning to dive or facing daunting new callings. Her encouragement? “It's okay to feel [fear]; it might be something that God uses in your story to do something really big and to show you more of who he is.” Lessons of Grief and Hope from the Coral Reefs Perhaps nowhere does Rachel blend her scientific vocation and spiritual conviction more poignantly than in her stewardship of endangered corals. She describes the “magic castles” of Dry Tortugas National Park—towering, endangered pillar corals—where she devoted herself to preservation efforts. Witnessing the corals' decline from disease was, for Rachel and her fellow scientists, “tragic and deeply impactful.” Yet, as a follower of Christ, Rachel finds hope in the heartbreak. Not only does she grieve in community, but she sees loss through the lens of biblical resurrection. She connects the “white skeleton bony structures” of dead corals to Ezekiel's vision of dry bones: if God can bring those bones to life, can't he also restore coral reefs one day? For Rachel, loss becomes an invitation to hope: “All of creation is eventually going to be restored, remade ... I just wonder what he's going to do next.” Divine Lessons from Buddy Dives and Seahorses Diving, for all its wonder, is fraught with risk, which is why marine biologists always practice “buddy diving”—entrusting their lives to a partner in the depths. For Rachel, this is a living parable: “God is our ultimate dive buddy ... he's not only capable of rescuing us in danger, but he promises to never leave or forsake us.” Other creatures—even a seahorse named Mr. Snuggles—have revealed to her the joy of relationship, not just provision. “I want to, like Mr. Snuggles, draw close to him and just sort of curl up with him and hang out together.” Scripture: A Dive Site Brimming with Life What better metaphor for the Bible, Rachel muses, than a vibrant dive site—unchanging in position but always full of surprise, beauty, and life? “When I read God's word ... there's always something new to discover.” It's a place to keep returning with fresh awe and an explorer's heart. The Deep Calls to Deep Whether or not you'll ever strap on a snorkel, Rachel's conversation is an invitation: to see the world as shot through with the beauty and presence of its Maker, to find him not only in safe harbor but also in the open, sometimes scary waters of life, and to trust that every loss and fear can be met—and even redeemed—by the God who made oceans and corals... and calls each of us out into the deep. MEET RACHEL JORDAN Rachel G. Jordan is a professional marine biologist and lay theologian. A self-professed Jesus-loving coral nerd, she was raised in Idaho and has since traveled the globe chasing her passion for faith and science. She has an MS in marine biology and ecology from James Cook University (Australia), a BS in ecology from Seattle Pacific University (USA), and a certification in biblical studies from Bodenseehof Bible School (Germany). In addition to working as a coral biologist for the US National Park Service, Rachel has worked in marine aquaculture research, organic chemistry laboratories, veterinary research facilities, the pet industry, and a museum. When not diving or writing, she can be found reading C.S. Lewis, growing wildflowers, and exploring creation with her husband. More at https://rachelgjordan.com/  MORE ABOUT “IF THE OCEAN HAS A SOUL” The ocean is filled with scientific discoveries―and God's presence. For marine biologist Rachel Jordan, both science and Scripture are means of knowing creation and Creator. In If the Ocean Has a Soul, Rachel considers the natural world through a spiritual lens, meshing marine biology with biblical truths in a keen and current take on faith and science. With engaging storytelling and deep knowledge of the Bible, she asks and answers questions like: How can Christians reconcile religion and science when the two seem opposed? What do suffering and death teach us about the character of Jesus? How do we care for the environment when there seems to be little hope for repair? What do the ocean and its sea creatures, specifically, reveal about God? In these pages, Rachel recounts fascinating aquatic phenomena alongside the sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic stories of animals she has known. You'll lose yourself in the shadows of an underwater labyrinth; hear spiritual wisdom from a great-grandmother coral the size of a Volkswagen Beetle; and fall in love with Porky, the pudgy porcupinefish greeting visitors at the Windjammer shipwreck. And along the way, you'll see how the promise of restoration unfolds in both physical and spiritual ways. Rachel's thoughtful scientific and theological insights encourage us to know the Creator of the sea and everything in it.

Can life's storms actually be blessings in disguise? Join me as we unravel this intriguing concept by diving into the heart of Matthew 14, where Jesus displays compassion amidst profound personal grief. This episode originally aired in April 2024. We explore how life's unpredictable challenges can reveal divine power and encourage steadfast faith. Through personal stories and biblical reflections, we uncover the importance of seeking God's presence even when the path seems unclear, and how maintaining faith can transform trials into profound spiritual growth opportunities. You'll hear about my own eye-opening experience during a sudden storm on Lake Mead, where parallels with Peter's moment of doubt offer lessons in trust and security. By examining the incredible story of Jesus walking on water and Peter's faith journey, we highlight how fear and doubt can make us sink, but keeping our eyes on Jesus can lead us to do the impossible. We delve into the miraculous acts of Jesus and how faith and obedience can help us overcome life's storms, encouraging listeners to embrace their faith boldly. As we navigate societal challenges like economic instability, we draw on insights from biblical scriptures and my book to offer practical guidance on finding strength and assurance in faith over material wealth. Even when storms are daunting, there is a divine power that supports us, as illustrated in Peter's call for help and Jesus' immediate response. Together, we reflect on how our trials are not just obstacles to overcome but are crucial steps in our spiritual journey, urging us to embrace them as opportunities for growth and deeper understanding of our God-given mission.

Individuals with codependent tendencies often find it easy to pray bold prayers for others, yet feel unworthy when it comes to expressing their own needs to God. The act of asking for help can even bring up feelings of shame. After all, having spent a lifetime supporting others, receiving assistance can feel uncomfortable for a codependent. However, when we pray boldly and witness God's responses to our prayers, our sense of security can shift from relying on people to trusting in God. This transformation allows us to love others as He intended and live in freedom from codependency through God dependency. This is why we have created these worksheets to help you process your pain with God through prayer and experience a breakthrough. What if the moment you feel most powerless is actually the start of your greatest breakthrough? In today's video, we'll uncover how God uses your Kiros moment to transform your life and heal your heart. Through Jacob's story, you'll learn how surrendering your strength opens the door to divine power. Get ready to exchange codependency for God-dependency and step into the freedom He has for you!

Sometimes fear is healthy when it keeps us from making dangerous choices.  But other times, our fears can paralyze us, and we become stuck and unable to move forward. Pastor John Munro presents the biblical cure for our most debilitating fears as he continues the series, With Wings Like Eagles.

The Eikon team explores the themes of exile, identity, and leadership in the context of the gospel and the Old Testament. They delve into the concept of exile as a central theme in the Bible, and examine God's design for kingship, militarism, the economy and status in Israel's history. They consider this as a clarifying metric for the embodied gospel and a conundrum for claims of any country that wishes to claim the status of a Christian nation.   00:00 Introduction and Banter05:21 The Concept of Exile in the Gospel10:11 Understanding Israel's Identity as Exiles17:46 Kingship and God's Design for Leadership28:30 Militarism and Its Implications30:06 Facing Fear in Battle31:16 God's Perspective on Militarism32:43 Faith in God's Protection34:26 The Role of Israel's Land36:49 Economic Principles in God's Kingdom39:30 The Role of Priests and Levites41:33 Caring for the Poor and Foreigners43:27 The Challenge of Being a Christian Nation46:22 Social Justice and Equality in God's Kingdom
