In this week's episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I share one of the most powerful and emotional topics we've ever covered: the transformation that happens when a boy becomes a man — not by age, but through intentional initiation and affirmation by other men. I talk about what happens when that moment is missing — and how we, as a community, can bring it back.We explore what it means to heal the “father wound,” reclaim masculinity, and become the protector, provider, and leader that God designed every man to be. From the biblical example of David to modern-day rites of passage like our Tough Mudder course for young men, this episode dives deep into the importance of community, challenge, and identity.Whether you're a father, mentor, or a man still figuring out who you are — this episode is for you. It's a call to step into the front lines of manhood, to raise up the next generation, and to boldly claim the strength and purpose you were born with. Join us at Brave Co 2025 for a life-changing experience.ABOUT BRAVECOWe live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood. At BraveCo, we are on a mission to heal the narrative of masculinity across a generation; fighting the good fight together because every man should feel confident and capable of facing his pain, loving deeply, and leading a life that impacts the world around him.

Vinz, the editor behind Love Reality's podcasts and videos, shares his powerful journey from legalistic religion to gospel freedom and how discovering his identity in Christ changed everything for him.• Growing up in a traditional Seventh-day Adventist home in the Philippines where religion felt like following rules• Viewing God as a taskmaster checking off good and bad deeds• Living with constant fear about not measuring up to God's standards• Experiencing a transformational encounter with the gospel that felt like "chains falling off"• Learning that salvation is based on Christ's finished work, not personal performance• Going through a period of deconstruction and reconstruction of beliefs• Finding true freedom and identity as God's beloved son• Facing persecution from religious communities for embracing gospel freedom• Discovering that being free from sin produces more genuine transformation than rule-followingWe preach grace, we preach Jesus, we preach the truth. Because we have come face to face with the gospel, I'm learning to forgive and just move forward in my journey of faith. Live out the gospel, live out the truth that God has declared over me and experience the joy of being favored by God.

Dr. Tito Sotolongo's sermon teaches that our identity should be based on faith in Jesus, not our actions or comparisons with others. He explains that Abraham's circumcision was a sign of his faith-based righteousness, illustrating that salvation comes from belief, not behavior. This grace is available to all, and believers are encouraged to obey God out of gratitude, not obligation, embracing their identity as God's children free from performance pressure.

Imagine standing before a mirror every morning and declaring aloud: “I am a redeemed child of God. I am a forgiven child of God. I am a saved child of God.” According to our guest John Schuetze, LPC, DMin, MDiv, BC-TMH, this simple practice can transform how we understand repentance and reshape our relationship with guilt and shame.In this profound exploration of Christian identity and repentance, Professor Schuetze draws from his 15 years as a pastor, 28 years teaching at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, and his ongoing work as a licensed professional counselor at Christian Family Solutions specializing in grief, trauma, and marital therapy. He unpacks repentance not as a mere acknowledgment of wrongdoing, but as a fundamental reorientation of how we see ourselves.The conversation reveals how sin affects us in three distinct ways: our own sinful actions, the painful effects of others' sins against us, and the general presence of sin in our fallen world. Each dimension requires a different response, but all must be addressed through the lens of our primary identity as God's children.For those struggling with persistent guilt despite knowing God's forgiveness, Schuetze offers both spiritual wisdom and practical neurological insights. He explains how negative thought patterns create well-worn neural pathways that must be gradually replaced with healthier, gospel-centered ones. “It's not a perfect faith that saves us,” he reminds listeners, “it's Christ that saves us.”As we enter the Lenten season, this episode serves as a timely reminder that while sin is indeed serious—“we don't have a little Savior who died for a bunch of little sins”—God's grace is even greater. True repentance means living in that tension, continually returning to our identity in Christ while striving for progress, not perfection, in our daily walk.Support the show

Hearing directly from God, cultivating a vibrant faith community, and discovering the truth of what God says about us - in this second episode of Season 2 you'll hear stories from Taylor and Chewy who are on the frontlines of a fresh movement of God in Dallas, TX. "I would tell myself intellectually that who I am in God is what matters, but deep down what helped me sleep at night was whether or not people perceived me as successful. My identity was so wrapped up in being a high achiever that I was having a meltdown. When the Holy Spirit breathed truth into my heart, that's when things really started to change." ----------------------- RELATED RESOURCES: Young Adults Fired Up For Jesus [Novo BLOG] The Activating Prayer Cohort [Novo Training]
