In this Father's Day episode, Pastors Mike Breaux, Carlos Erazo and Mark McCartney discuss parenting, identity, and why the words of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount still hit home. From dad jokes to deep spiritual insight, they unpack how to be present with your kids, how to deal with unresolved anger, and how Jesus calls us to something deeper than behavior change—He calls us to heart change. They also talk candidly about the battle with lust, how to live free without slipping into legalism, and how grace fuels true obedience. Whether you grew up with a godly example or are trying to break the cycle and be one, this episode is packed with wisdom, honesty, and encouragement for the journey.

We kicked off our new series, The Rebel Way, by diving deep into the Sermon on the Mount—a message that's as radical and relevant today as it was when Jesus first preached it. Pastors Mike Breaux, Chris Kuti and Carlos Erazo unpack the Beatitudes and how this countercultural invitation leads us toward a life of freedom, purpose, and transformation.  From personal stories of brokenness to the beauty of surrender, we explored how Jesus flips the script on what it means to be truly blessed. Whether you're struggling with pride, searching for peace, or simply longing for a deeper relationship with God, this conversation reminds us that the narrow path is the one worth walking. As we follow Jesus upstream, we discover a faith that's authentic, compelling, and full of grace.

That We Might Live Free A Memorial Day Tribute | Arete Coach™ Podcast with Severin Sorensen. A Special tribute featuring Jay Stringham (posthumously), Irving Ray Stringham Jr., and the Stringham family legacy. In this special Memorial Day edition of the Arete Coach™ Podcast, host Severin Sorensen departs from his usual exploration of executive coaching to deliver a solemn tribute to the men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation. Titled “That We Might Live Free,” this episode reflects on the true meaning of Memorial Day, honors the story of WWII aviator Irving Ray Stringham Jr., and shares a sacred poem—A Soldier's Last Prayer—written by his younger brother Jay Thorral Stringham. Rather than featuring a conventional guest, this episode centers on a heartfelt tribute to Irving Ray Stringham Jr., a WWII aviator who gave his life over the skies of Germany, and Jay Thorral Stringham, his younger brother and the only survivor among five friends from their neighborhood who went to war together. Haunted by loss and moved by a deep sense of reverence, Jay channeled his grief and gratitude into a poem titled “A Soldier's Last Prayer.” The poem, delivered in this episode, is a poignant reflection of a soldier's internal dialogue on the eve of battle—capturing a blend of fear, faith, sacrifice, and hope. The host received this poem from Jay's daughter, Dolly Hicks, who entrusted its legacy to be shared and remembered. With permission from the family, Severin transforms this heartfelt poem into three powerful musical renditions, each offering a different lens on sacrifice, remembrance, and devotion. This is not a performance—this is an offering. A moment of remembrance. A promise to never forget. Featuring: Historical reflections and family storiesThree musical interpretations of A Soldier's Last PrayerQuotes from JFK, Reagan, Lincoln, Patton, and moreA call to live with gratitude, purpose, and honor

I'm joined by my friend Elizabeth Woodson—Bible teacher, author, and all-around theological powerhouse—to talk about Paul's letter to the Galatians. We dig into what it really means to be free in Christ, why Paul's transformation from persecutor to apostle matters so deeply, and how he surprisingly elevated the role of women in his ministry. Elizabeth shares wisdom from her new Bible study, Live Free, and together we unpack how belief in Jesus reshapes both our individual lives and our communities.Buy Elizabeth's Study:Live Free - Bible Study: A Study of GalatiansFollow Elizabeth:Instagram | TikTokSign up for weekly emails at RebeccaMcLaughlin.org/SubscribeFollow Confronting Christianity:Instagram | XProduced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠The Good Podcast Co.⁠⁠⁠⁠

What happens when a bold faith collides with a skeptical world?   Pastors Josh Howerton and Carlos Erazo are joined by Pamela Baltazar and Jana Howerton for a rich, laughter-filled, and truth-packed conversation centered on Acts 17 and Paul's legendary sermon on Mars Hill. 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.

This weeks message is by Hilton Greig

Bitterness is a snare. It's poison we willingly drink and expect to have no effect on us. It is a sure sign that our eyes are not on the cross and the grace and mercy that has been given so freely to to us ... but on ourselves. In this sermon, Jacob Hryhorchuck gives us three ways we can walk free from bitterness. To choose to hold onto bitterness is to refuse to show others the same grace that the Lord extended to you. Letting it go though, that act restores us.

John 8:31-36  //  To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 33 They answered him, “We are Abraham's descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?” 34 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. Freedom is a journey Ephesians 1:16-18  //  I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people Know God Find Freedom Discover Purpose Make a Difference Ephesians 2:8-9 (NLT)  //  God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. Philippians 2:12-13 (NLT)  //  Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Body, Soul, & Spirit Body - The Physical Soul - The mind, will, and emotions Spirit - The part of us that is like God. 1. Victory over sin. Sin: What I do to myself. Wounds: What others did to me. Romans 7:21-25  //  So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! 2. Healing from wounds. Ephesians 4:26-27 (NLT)  //  And “don't sin by letting anger control you.” Don't let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil. 3. Authority over the enemy. Ephesians 6:10-12  //  Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Romans 8:1-2 (NLT)  //  So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death. Romans 8:5-6 (NLT)  //  Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. Right relationships are the key. Proverbs 28:13  //  He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy. God will not heal what we conceal. 1 John 1:9  //  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. James 5:16  //  Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. Water baptism Join the Church. Access groups.

What if the thing that keeps you stuck… is the very thing Jesus wants to set you free from? Addiction. Habits. Patterns we don't know how to break. This conversation dives into the life-changing story from John 4 and the woman at the well—where Jesus confronts not just her behavior, but her deep thirst for something more. Pastor Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo, Marc McCartney, and Leslie Gregory unpack what it really means to walk in freedom—whether from porn, toxic shame, gender confusion, or the secret struggles no one sees. They explore why confession is powerful, how shame loses its grip when you bring your habits into the light. Whether it's a past you regret or a struggle you can't shake, this one is packed with hope, healing, and a whole lot of honesty.

The worst thing that can happen to a fighter is that he becomes civilized—and the worst thing that can happen to a church is that it gets comfortable.In this passionate, transitional message from 1 Corinthians 9, Pastor Chris calls the church to a life of gospel grit - because the gospel is worth it. Drawing from Paul's imagery of athletic discipline and inspired by scenes from the Rocky films, this sermon is a charge to live with urgency, purpose, and discomfort for the sake of Christ.- Why running hard means living a life poured out for the gospel- What it truly means to live free—and how that freedom leads us to serve- Why comfort is the greatest danger to the church in our generation- How the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25, The Message) speaks directly to playing not to lose- A powerful closing commission to take up the mission that no one else can carry but youIf you've ever felt like your faith has settled into safe routines, this message will shake you, encourage you, and remind you that you were never called to comfort. You were called to run.

What happens when a church looks alive on the outside but is spiritually asleep within? Pastors Josh Howerton, Carlos Erazo and Marc McCartney unpack the sobering message to the church in Sardis, diving deep into Revelation 3 and exploring the dangers of spiritual complacency. With powerful stories—including an inspiring testimony of transformation from the UK—and rich historical context from ancient Sardis, this conversation reveals how Jesus calls His church to wake up and walk in genuine intimacy with Him. They also wrestle with a timeless question: Can a Christian lose their salvation?    We hope this honest, hope-filled dialogue encourages you to examine your heart and press into a faith that perseveres.

Listen to the Law, Live Free - Galatians 4:21-31

Hey, Tribesmen—Episode 61 is here, and this one is for every man who's tired of burning out and ready to build a life that works. I sat down with Ari Meisel, creator of The Replaceable Founder and author of Less Doing, and his story is exactly what we need right now. Ari went from battling a chronic disease that nearly shut his life down to helping entrepreneurs reclaim their time, energy, and purpose. His approach to productivity isn't just about doing less—it's about becoming more. More present. More effective. More in control. If you've ever felt like your business owns you, like your calendar is running your life, or like you're constantly stuck in “busy mode”… this episode will shift something inside you. What You'll Learn: The Crohn's diagnosis that forced Ari to rethink everything—and launched his framework for true freedom How to stop being the bottleneck in your business (and finally start growing again) The difference between doing less and being lazy—and why letting go is real leadership The three-step system: Optimize → Automate → Outsource—and how it changes everything How Ari runs a family of 7, volunteers, and still stays grounded in Torah values What productivity really means when you're leading a family and a business Why being replaceable is a badge of honor—not a weakness What holds most men back from being productive (hint: it's not your schedule—it's your mindset) Key Takeaways for the Tribe: ✅ Let Go to Lead Stronger True leadership isn't doing everything yourself. It's empowering others and building systems that last. ✅ Freedom Is the Goal Not just freedom from your business—but freedom to live, grow, and lead with clarity. ✅ Optimize First, Always Before outsourcing or automating anything, get clear. Simplicity beats speed. ✅ Your Calendar Reflects Your Heart If you're not scheduling what matters—faith, family, growth—it's time to make a change. ✅ The Mind Is the First System Your thoughts shape your productivity. Fix what's in your head, and the rest will follow. Show Notes: Introduction (00:00): Welcoming Ari Meisel to the show and how this episode came together. The Wake-Up Call (01:14): How a Crohn's diagnosis and health crisis launched Ari into a journey of optimization. Productivity Framework (03:09): The three-step system that changed his life: Optimize → Automate → Outsource. Leadership & Identity (10:08): Why many founders are addicted to being busy—and how to build a business that thrives without you. Replaceable ≠ Disposable (12:00): Ari's view on what true leadership means and why it requires letting go. Systems for Family (15:00): How Ari applies productivity at home with five kids, volunteer work, and faith at the center. Practical Tools (18:00): From AI to Amazon Subscribe & Save—how to stop wasting time and start owning it. Business Coaching & Clarity (19:46): How Ari works with entrepreneurs to remove bottlenecks and build effective teams. The Real Reason You're Not Productive (22:01): Why your mindset is the first system you need to fix. Final Words (28:00): Why productivity isn't about doing more—it's about becoming more of who you're meant to be.     This episode isn't just for entrepreneurs. It's for every man who wants to stop surviving and start building something that lasts—without losing himself in the process. Stay strong, stay disciplined, Yigal P.S. If this hit home, take one step today. Go to lessdoing.com, check out Ari's tools, or just start tracking your day. One change can start the shift. 

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.

"If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord", and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." That's it. That's all it takes to be saved. Both in biblical times and today, people have tried to impose additional rules, obscuring the gospel and putting walls where God opened doors. In this sermon, Bob Baulch teaches on the spirit of religion and explains how it can hinder and even hurt God's people. He leave us with a warning...don't become bewitched by the spirit of religion.

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.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith joins the show to share insights from her new book, Being Fully Known, exploring how societal labels and the fear of vulnerability hold us back from spiritual and personal growth. She opens up about her own journey from clinical medicine to a more fulfilling path, emphasizing the importance of stillness, self-acceptance, and aligning with God's image. Together, we discuss why rest is more than just sleep—it's a way of life—and how embracing the seven types of rest can lead to true work-life harmony.

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.  

The Gospel changes everything. We'll talk about the true freedom we find because of that Gospel. Author and teacher Elizabeth Woodson will help us take a deep dive into the book of Galatians to find the peace and hope we crave. And we’ll deal with the "false gospels" we often turn to but that never satisfy. Don't miss the encouragement to "Live Free" on Chris Fabry Live.

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.  

Ever wondered if working for yourself could be the game-changer your finances need? Grant Sabatier thinks so, and today, he's diving into the realities of entrepreneurship—from smart strategies to potential pitfalls. Where to start if you're considering entrepreneurship – Not every side hustle is a winner, so how do you know if this path is right for you? The power of systems and constraints – Why guardrails and structure matter more than unlimited freedom. Pricing strategies and finding customers – Because even the best ideas need paying customers. Entrepreneurial misconceptions – Spoiler: It's not all Ferraris and private jets. Can your wedding be a tax deduction? – We explore the entertaining but highly questionable ways some people try to make this work. Meanwhile, Doug serves up trivia on the highest-grossing console game ever (bet you won't guess it). And if you stick around long enough, let's just say there may or may not be a discussion about a comedy movie that turns financial struggles into pure entertainment. But, you know… no promises.
