Not every man who treats you well is meant to lead you.In this episode, we're unpacking the difference between a good man and a Godly man (or woman) —because kindness, consistency, and chemistry are not the same as spiritual alignment.Using Proverbs 4:23 and 2 Timothy 3:5, we explore how a man can have a form of godliness without truly walking in it—and why that distinction matters when you're dating with intention.If you've ever felt confused in a “good” relationship…If you've ever questioned why something feels off even when he's treating you right… If you're learning to desire alignment over attachment…This episode will help you discern the difference—and choose differently.Send us Fan Mail Support the showThank you for listening.

Before Harry Frielink was a pastor, he was a camp counselor, shaped by a man named Matthew Kingswood who asked a deceptively simple question every summer before the kids arrived: are you in the word with people? Not are you ready with your theology. Are you in the word — actually, with actual people? That question has never left Harry. This episode follows him through the harder parts of pastoral ministry: the isolation, the marriage under pressure, the theological controversies that arrived at Synod and in his living room, and ultimately to his closing word — a phrase that came from a mentor ten years into his ministry, repeated twice for emphasis: blow on the live embers. Harry is candid about pastoral struggles. He references Paul Tripp's Dangerous Calling — the danger of a pastor who lives above or outside the body of Christ rather than in it — and says this is a trap he's actively tried to avoid by building real friendships inside and outside his congregation. On the scripture authority question underlying the CRC's controversies, he says personal experience and story were placed above the word in the human sexuality debates. His read on the Human Sexuality Report goes against the grain of how the debate was framed: he saw not a culture war skirmish but a gospel opportunity — a chance to name the full spectrum of sexual brokenness and ask, how does the gospel address this? That opportunity, he says, is still there. Harry is encouraged by Synods 22 and 23, surprised by the vote totals, and grateful for young pastors speaking with clarity and courage. He sees Classis Toronto beginning to turn its attention toward the Great Commission — revitalization, discipleship, getting ready for people already coming to the doors. His closing encouragement draws on three simple practices: blow on the live embers where the Spirit is moving, be in the word yourself, and pray — privately, faithfully, at a level you'd be glad to lead publicly. You'll never preach at a level above your own reading. You'll never lead in prayer beyond your own prayer life. And that, he says, is grounding enough.

Studying abroad and serving missionally can go hand in hand! From the vibrancy of Ecuadorian dancing to the incense of Buddhist temples, TeachBeyond members share how their study abroad experiences exposed them to missions and helped them discern a calling to pursue teaching overseas. Zeke and Abby studied abroad with Living and Learning International Nichole student taught abroad with STAGE (Interaction International "It gave me 'family' in another culture and another location, and I think people are [...] what you hold onto the most with study abroad." - Zeke "That's the difference [from] if you are just going on vacation or if you do a semester at sea and you're bouncing around to all of these different places. With study abroad, you're living somewhere, and that makes all of the difference in the world." - Abby "God, open my eyes and break my heart for what breaks Yours; help me to see and speak into things as You see fit." - Kylie "When I studied abroad, God really confirmed in my heart that yes, missions is something [He was] inviting me into." - Kylie "Go in with an open mindset and hands open to what the Lord has for you overseas – and when you come back, what your next steps look like." - Nichole "There's going to be something that is difficult or inconvenient because you are not living in your home country and most likely not speaking your language. So, [lean] into that because I believe that that is where the Lord is going to grow you in that pressing. It feels hard, but then it turns into something beautiful and the Lord develops and grows you in a beautiful way." - Nichole "I know that He's with me and He sees me, even when people back home don't or when people here don't see what I'm feeling emotions towards back home, He 'gets' all my areas of life, all of the countries I've been to, He understands all of it." - Nichole "This is uncomfortable, but I'm going to say yes and I'm going to do it [...] Be mindful of being open to the 'yes' and being open to what God has for you because some of the sweetest memories are in those moments." - Abby "We want to see this place and really live here." - Zeke "God has created all of these cultures that are so beautiful and so unique, and [we get] to experience them and see His heart for those people." - Kylie "Where has God given gifts in this culture?

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

Don't miss this one. Can one simple "yes" really change the course of someone's entire life? In this powerful episode, Jim Ramos sits down with Richmond, a former Compassion International sponsor child whose story of loss, hopelessness, and redemption will leave you stunned. As a young boy facing unimaginable hardship, Richmond's life was transformed when one person chose to invest in him. That single "yes" didn't just change his childhood—it launched a life of influence that now impacts pastors, leaders, and entire communities around the world. Richmond's testimony shows what God can do when we choose to shine our light and trust Him with the results. By the end of this episode, you'll learn how one act of obedience can multiply far beyond your lifetime and what it looks like to invest in the Kingdom in simple, practical ways.

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett and Nick lay out three non-negotiable beliefs that godly men must have if they want to endure adversity, carry responsibility, and fulfill God's purpose for their lives. These aren't motivational ideas — they're foundational truths rooted in Scripture and revealed through how men actually live, work, and lead.The conversation walks through why beliefs reveal themselves through actions, not words, and how default, emotion-driven beliefs quietly sabotage men under pressure. Garrett and Nick unpack what happens when men don't believe they were made to be strong, made to work, and made to lead — and how that lack of belief shows up as complaining, quitting, avoidance, and identity confusion.This episode challenges men to stop letting culture define masculinity and instead anchor their identity in biblical truth. If you want to build endurance, carry weight without resentment, work with purpose, and lead with responsibility, these three beliefs aren't optional — they're essential.Apply for the Mindset Mastery Scholarship by January 14thJoin a group of likeminded Impossible Life listeners in our FREE Skool community by clicking here.Get the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

How does a godly man respond to dreadful circumstances? We should look at Joseph. You'd be hard pressed to come up with a godly man who had more dreadful circumstances to deal with. It seems like just as soon as the Son of God is born and worshipped by the visiting magi, evil threatens. That cozy scene of the Christmas manger draws to a close, and an angel appears to Joseph with a disturbing message about his family's safety. Pastor Chris shows us some things we can (once again) learn from a godly man. The artwork associated with this post (viewable on the Epiclesis platform but not in iTunes Podcast) is "The Flight into Egypt" by Eugene Girardet.
In this episode, Tommy and Trey talk about Joseph, and how Joseph's example of goldiness is an encouragement to men today!

Thomas Watson (1620–1686) fue el “director de conciencias” de una Londres en guerra, plaga, incendio y expulsión.

How to Discern a Safe and Godly Man What does a safe and godly man truly look like? And how can you tell the difference between surface-level change and deep, lasting heart transformation? In this powerful episode, Leslie sits down with Michael and Kristen Cary, founders of Living Truth and creators of Men in the Battle and Women in the Battle. Together, they unpack the hard but healing truth about what real repentance looks like in a man, how to spot red flags—even when he seems "nice"—and why women need to do their own healing work, whether or not their partner is changing. With raw honesty and biblical wisdom, this conversation offers practical tools to help women discern character, build clarity, and courageously walk toward truth and safety. Key Takeaways True Repentance Goes Beyond Behavior Management Real heart change isn't just about stopping bad behavior—it's about digging deep to understand the “why” beneath it. Men who are truly repentant aren't just trying to avoid consequences; they're broken over the pain they've caused, open to feedback, and willing to do the long, hard work of healing. Women Must Heal, Too Betrayal trauma doesn't just disappear with his sobriety. Even if the sexual sin wasn't yours, the pain and damage are real. Healing requires tending to your own wounds, setting boundaries, and stepping into the work of becoming whole again—regardless of what he chooses to do. Believe the Behavior, Not the Words Change is seen in fruit, not phrases. Many men can talk the talk—especially in Christian circles—but safety is shown through consistent actions: humility, accountability, respect for boundaries, and emotional maturity. If he gets defensive, blames, or minimizes your pain, those are red flags—not repentance. When “Nice” Isn't Safe Just because he's nice doesn't mean he's safe. Safety means he can hear your truth without punishing you. He respects your "no," honors your boundaries, and doesn't manipulate with guilt, fear, or Scripture. A man who is truly safe will prioritize your emotional and spiritual well-being—not just try to keep the peace. The Pain Must Be His Teacher—Not Yours Sometimes the only thing that wakes someone up is the pain of consequences. Staying “nice” to avoid upsetting him often prevents the very growth that's needed. Love does not mean enabling sin. Godly sorrow leads to repentance—not just sorrow over being caught. If You're Struggling to Discern the Truth… If you're unsure whether your marriage is just difficult, chronically disappointing, or truly destructive, don't stay stuck in confusion. Leslie has created a free Quick Start Guide to help you gain clarity, take your next right step, and begin walking in truth. Download your guide here: www.leslievernick.com/guide To connect with Michael and Kristen Cary and explore their healing programs for men and women: Visit: www.living-truth.org Dear Friend, God is not asking you to sacrifice your safety, sanity, or soul to save a marriage that is wounding you. He calls us to walk in truth, not denial—to speak up, not shrink back. Even if he never changes, you can. You are not alone, and you are not powerless. With God's help, you can move forward in wisdom, clarity, and courage—one brave step at a time.

In this week's episode of The Uncrowned Podcast, host Joe Buttice breaks down the three traits of a Godly man—Priest, Provider, Protector—and why Christian masculinity means more than titles. It's a God-first lifestyle: setting the spiritual temperature at home, providing more than money (time, presence, and spiritual formation), and protecting emotionally so your wife and family feel safe to speak truth without fear. Expect Bible-backed principles, short parables, and real-world application for both husbands and single men. If you're ready to stop drifting and start leading with intention, this is your roadmap. You'll learn: What spiritual leadership looks like day-to-day (simple rhythms of prayer, Scripture, and worship). Why provision is more than a paycheck (church, friendships, family worship, and presence). How true protection includes emotional safety, calm tone, and patient listening. A 7-day challenge to live out Priest • Provider • Protector right now. Scripture used (ESV/NKJV): Genesis 18:19 • Deuteronomy 6:7 • Joshua 24:15 • 1 Timothy 5:8 • Luke 5:16 • Ephesians 5:25 • James 1:19 • Colossians 3:19 • 1 Peter 3:7 • Proverbs 15:1 Please don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to the podcast so we can reach as many men as possible!
