What does it really mean to have faith like a child? In this episode, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, Jana Howerton, and Pamela Baltazar dive into The Chronicles of Narnia and the theme of childlike faith, anchored in Matthew 18:3. From discussing the highest recorded IQ in the world (and his public confession of Christ!) to revisiting C.S. Lewis' vision of the gospel through Narnia, this conversation is full of laughter, theology, cultural commentary, and practical application. They also contrast childish vs. childlike faith, tackle common objections to Christianity, and unpack the historical shifts in belief, from New Atheism to Deconstruction to today's cultural “vibe shift” back toward Christ.

Can God really use someone like me? In Episode 31 of Live Free, we kick off our At The Movies series with insights from Ford v Ferrari and Acts 4:13. Pastors Josh Howerton and Carlos Erazo are joined by Jana Howerton and Pamela Baltazar as they unpack how God uses everyday people for extraordinary purposes—not because of credentials, but because they've spent time with Jesus. Discover how to find your calling through affirmation, ability, and opportunity, and why faithfulness in small things matters more than you think. Whether you're serving behind the scenes or stepping out for the first time, this episode will inspire you to say “yes” to God's bigger plan.  

In this week's raw and honest episode, we're going deep. Deeper than porn. Deeper than behavior. This is about the heart and the eternal battle between comfort and calling. You'll hear a powerful story about Alexander the Great and how his army's success became their greatest hindrance. And how that same pattern plays out in the lives of Christian men today. Spoils become shackles. Comfort becomes compromise. And sin, both obvious and subtle, keeps us from the race we were meant to run. But we're not left without an example. Jesus, the greater King, burned every worldly treasure to obey the will of the Father—and then called us to follow Him. Not to simply “go,” but to follow. You'll discover: Why the call to follow Jesus means radical surrender How to throw off the “weighted vest” of comfort and sin A practical challenge to fix your eyes on Christ...not other Christians, not your Instagram feed, not your bank account And a live invite to join a free workshop on biblical meditation (inside the Man of Valor community) This is not about white-knuckling your way out of pornography. It's about magnifying Christ and living for something that will never fade. Mentioned in this episode: The Alexander the Great story and spiritual parallel Hebrews 12:1–4 | Philippians 2 | 1 Peter 2 | 2 Corinthians 8:9 Quotes from Charles Spurgeon The “Murph Workout” analogy to carrying spiritual weight A free community for men: themanofvalor.com Upcoming live workshop: How to Meditate on the Word of God (register inside the group)

Is this the end of the world? How should Christians view Israel, prophecy, and the second coming of Jesus? In this episode, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and guest theologian Paul Cunningham unpack powerful themes from Romans 11, Revelation, and 1 Corinthians. The conversation ranges from spiritual mysteries to prophecy fulfillment, including various eschatological views like preterism, premillennialism, and idealism. You'll hear deep, Spirit-filled reflections on how God's sovereignty unfolded in history—and how His promises to Israel still matter today. But beyond the theology, the team brings it home: the return of Christ should stir urgency, humility, and action in our lives. Whether you're exploring prophecy, struggling with what to believe, or leading others in discussion, this episode reminds us that while we don't know the exact time, we do know our mission.

Episode Summary: Before a single word is spoken, we've already told a story. The emotional and spiritual tone we carry into a room—our atmosphere—is one of the most powerful instruments of formation in family life. In this episode, we unpack what atmosphere is, why it matters, and how it quietly shapes what our children believe about love, safety, identity, and belonging. You'll discover how the Three Doors framework (Survival, Striving, and Transformation) shows up in the “air” of our homes and why peace-building—not pressure—creates the soil where souls grow. Whether you're parenting, leading, or simply learning how to abide instead of perform, this episode will help you breathe a little deeper and build relationships that last. You're in the right place if… You sometimes wonder why your home feels tense, even when no one is saying anything out loud. You've tried all the right parenting strategies, but something still feels off beneath the surface. Your child seems anxious, explosive, or withdrawn—and you're realizing that presence matters more than pressure You want to build a home where peace is the atmosphere and formation begins with love, not fear. Key Takeaways: Atmosphere is the first instrument of formation. Long before our kids hear our words, they feel our presence. Parents—not children—are responsible for the emotional tone of the home. Your nervous system sets the thermostat. You can't build homes of transformation with materials shaped by fear. Peace is the environment where souls grow. You don't need to be perfect—you need to be present. The atmosphere of Door #3 is formed by grace, not performance.

What are you really building your life on? In this powerful conversation, Pastors Mike Breaux, Carlos Erazo, and Marc McCartney close out The Rebel Way series by unpacking the final words of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7). With humor, honesty, and pastoral wisdom, they explore the difference between merely hearing Jesus' words to actually living them out. They discuss how spiritual growth takes practice, why storms reveal what we're built on, and what it means to follow Jesus on the narrow path of obedience. Whether you're facing a storm or preparing for one, this episode offers clarity, conviction, and hope—because Jesus is the only foundation that holds.

As they unpack how Paul's approach to sharing the Gospel mirrors the challenges we face in today's digital culture, the group explores how believers can engage the modern “Areopagus” of social media with courage and clarity.  Along the way, they celebrate God's faithfulness through 25,000 baptisms at Lakepointe church, highlight stories of life change, and even consider whether Joe Rogan might be inching closer to Jesus. This is a powerful conversation about legacy, revival, and using every platform to share the hope found in Christ.

What does faithfulness look like when the ground beneath you literally shakes? In this deep dive into Revelation 3:7–13, Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Tim Smith, unpack the powerful message to the church in Philadelphia—a community that stood firm through earthquakes and persecution, earning Jesus' pure commendation. They explore what it means to be a spiritual pillar in a crumbling culture, how ancient history intersects with modern mission, and why evangelism isn't just for “professional Christians.” Plus, the crew tackles common myths about megachurches and shares practical ways to live like Jesus really is returning soon.    Stick around for a lively debate about Beast Games, and a moment of inspiration from a NASA believer who brought church to orbit.

For the freedom-minded, there's plenty of doom and gloom where we look for it—wars, technocratic control systems, and economic collapse. But while most people stay stuck in fear or outrage, others are taking action. They're securing second residencies, moving capital out of reach, and planting flags in places where freedom still has a fighting chance. In today's episode, I joined Hrvoje Moric on his program Geopolitics & Empire to discuss what I'm seeing on the ground: which countries are best for freedom-minded expats, how I separate fantasy from reality in the offshore space, and why I believe the path to sovereignty lies in pragmatic action—not black-pilled defeatism. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH HRVOJE MORIĆ Listen in as I walk Hrvoje through my origin story—from being labelled with a learning disability to building a life of international freedom. Tune in as Hrvoje, and I discuss the repackaged push for a North American Union and why more centralization is the opposite of what the world needs. Discover why Panama, Paraguay, and Uruguay top my list of countries best set up for expats.  Find out how I've helped clients stay grounded and realistic about expat life—without buying into the fear porn or the sunshine-and-rainbows fantasies.  Hear my response to critics who overgeneralize Latin America—and why sweeping narratives miss the real, nuanced opportunities on the ground. Unpack how bureaucracies in many third-world countries' inefficiency act as a feature, not a bug, when attempting to implement technocratic controls.  Learn why I favour tangible assets, like international real estate and precious metals, over manipulated stock markets.  By the end of this episode, it will be clear why I reject black-pilled defeatism and instead focus on practical, pragmatic strategies to preserve liberty and wealth.

What happens when spiritual compromise becomes the norm and how can we confront it with truth and grace? Pastors Josh Howerton and Carlos Erazo welcome Pamela Baltazar for a powerful conversation rooted in Revelation 2 and the challenge to the church in Thyatira. They unpack the biblical warnings against the Jezebel spirit and explore how its subtle influences show up today in culture, the church, and even personal relationships.    From feminism and gender roles to the redefining of marriage and truth, no topic is off limits as they contrast biblical conviction with cultural confusion. This episode is both bold and deeply pastoral—calling us toward holiness, repentance, and God's beautiful design for men and women.  

What if your compromise isn't as subtle as you think?   Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, and Paul Lewis have a powerful conversation inspired by the letter to the church in Pergamum, and things get real. From uncovering the historical and spiritual weight of Satan's throne to the bizarre links between ancient temples, Roman emperors, and even Nazi Germany, this conversation exposes the enemy's recycled tactics across history. They dive into how antichrists rise, how false teaching creeps in, and how spiritual authority is either claimed—or forfeited. It's all about courage over compromise, spiritual clarity, and reclaiming the dominion God intended. Plus, they explore topics like IVF, spiritual warfare, and the nicknames only the Father can give.   This one will stretch your mind, stir your faith, and help you see the unseen battles all around.  

Have you ever wondered why suffering seems to shape us more than success? This week, we dive deep into the power of perseverance, faith, and finding purpose in the trials we face.   As we explore the letter to the church in Smyrna, we're reminded that hardship isn't the end of the story—it's often the beginning of something deeper. Together with Pastors Mike Breaux, Marc McCartney, and Carlos Erazo, we unpack how God uses suffering and persecution to refine our faith and draw us closer to Him.    We also discuss how moral failures and their consequences can be a part of the journey, calling us to repentance and growth. Whether you're in the middle of a storm or walking alongside someone who is, this conversation will encourage you to hold on to the hope we have in Christ.

What happens when a church starts strong but loses sight of what truly matters? The early church in Ephesus had an incredible legacy—planted by the Apostle Paul, led by Timothy, and even home to the Apostle John and Mary.

They explore how distraction, culture, and even good theology can become barriers to genuine love for Christ. Plus, hear about Pastor Josh's eye-opening journey through the ancient ruins of Ephesus, the surprising history behind the Jesus fish symbol, and what it all means for believers today.
