Samuel 131. We are called to action, not passivity2. Three reasons we choose passivity -Shame -Uncertainty -Fear of Conflict3. Avoidance does not solve the problem4. If you do not lead, someone else will5. Avoidance Compounds Issues6. Change is a Process
BOOK:LIONHEARTEDhttps://lionhearted.com/WHY THIS BOOK WHY NOW? WHY YOU? WHY LIONHEARTED? EXPLAIN HOW THE HEART IS THE CENTERPIECE OF OUR MANHOODSTATE OF MANHOOD? There is no such thing as neutrality in the life of faith. Jesus said, “The kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force." Passivity is not an option. Inactivity is a vote to go back to living and looking like the old you. It's the easiest thing in the world for a Christian man to be too passive, and hardness sets in as a result.WHAT FEARS DO YOU HAVE ABOUT THE LITTLE C CHURCH? FULL OF BOX-CHECKING POSERS? RELIGIOUS LABELS PRESSED AND PLEATED WHEN/HOW DID YOU OWN YOUR FAITH?QUOTES: “Going to church is a dangerous hobby. You are operating on the mistaken assumption that putting yourself in proximity to truth will be enough to provoke positive incremental change in you. “ “Your spiritual outlook is the equivalent of the college student sleeping with a textbook under his pillow, hoping he can prepare for the exam by osmosis. The problem is that hearing God's Word without taking the dramatic action that it demands is doing damage to your soul. “ “Doing spiritual things” - you know that's what a Christian is supposed to do - you are playing games with life-and-death truth. Your docile disposition is killing the potential work of God in you.” “And what's so dangerous about that way of living is that the longer you allow that to continue unchecked, the more difficult it becomes to break the cycle. Passivity perpetuates passivity.”TUNA HEARTWHAT DOES A FINELY TUNED HEART LOOK LIKE?HOW DO WE KNOW OUR HEART IS OUT OF TUNE?WHAT ARE INFLUENCES THAT GIVE US FALSE INFORMATION ABOUT HOW IN TUNE OUR HEARTS ARE?TOOLS THAT FINELY TUNE OUR HEARTS?HOW DO WE DEFEND AGAINST THIS COMPLACENCY?You will always need men in your life who can call you out, who can tell you that something is off. And it will always take humility to listen, but as you lean into the tuning and retuning process, your hear will grow, and you will progressively unlock the potential that it possesses.HOW DO WE FIND THE RIGHT MEN TO HOLD US ACCOUNTABLE?CH 5 HE(ART) OF DECEPTION Many men willfully choose to view themselves, their mo-tivations, their decisions, and their actions through a lens that is detached from reality. Your self-assessment is detached from reality. We would prefer to believe that our intentions are what's most im-portant. We live from a mantra that it's what we meant to do that actually matters. All of this speaks to our preference for nonreality. WHY DO WE JUDGE OTHERS ON THEIR ACTIONS BUT WE JUDGE OURSELVES ON OUR INTENTIONS ?SELF-DECEPTION & VICTIM MENTALITY WE CAN JUSTIFY ANYTHING WE CAN TALK OURSELVES INTO OUR OUT OF ANYTHING WHY IS THERE FAKE FREEDOM ASSIGNED TO THIS DENIAL?SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESSQUOTES:LION HEARTEDNESS HAS one polar opposite: self-righteousness. Self-righteousness IS BORN OUT OF SPIRITUAL INSECURITY SELF-RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE: You are "spiritual," but primarily in relationship to yourself, not your relationship with God. You engage in lots of self-sacrifice without real obedience,HOW DID CHURCH GET SO FULL OF THIS? THOUGHTS ON THIS BEING WHAT HAS KEPT MEN OUT OF CHURCH

An episode from Cornerstone Baptist Church, a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located in Carthage, TN. What Cornerstone Baptist Church believes:The Bible says in 1 Peter 4:11, “If any man speak, let him speak as of the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” Our heart's desire is that God may be glorified in all things as we seek to minister to others. Cornerstone Baptist Church was started in 1991 by a group of people who wanted a church where the Bible was the final authority, not tradition or denomination. Since that time, God has blessed the effort of that initial group and the vision has been broadened and refined as the years have passed. As we have sought the leadership of the Holy Spirt and with a desire to “seek the old paths”. There are a few ministries which seem to be the “earmarks” of our church. First would be Bible preaching and teaching, in order to “perfect he saints”. We have also seen a great response to the challenge of World Missions as we continue to support more missionaries each year. One of our goals is to minister to the entire family and emphasize the importance of Bible based homes. This of course leads to a lot of training for the youth, and a particular emphasis on character. With these areas of emphasis, we also strive to exercise grace and allow the saints room and time to grow in the Lord. Christianity is not a Sunday religion It is not a performance. It is a relationship with Jesus Christ which matures with time and effort. Cornerstone Baptist Church is an independent, fundamental, mission-minded Baptist church that holds to the following: Salvation by gracethrough faith in Jesus Christ alone The King JamesBible as the preserved word of God & our final authority The virgin birth ofJesus Christ The deity of JesusChrist The pre-millennialreturn of Christ to this earth The eternalsecurity of ever true born-again believer The gospel as the death, burial & resurrection of Jesus Christ We resist the contemporary music & mega-church philosophy Our first meeting was in a tent in 1991. We organized as a church in October of that year and have witnessed the merciful hand of God through these years as we have grown in Christ through old fashioned preaching, praying, singing and genuine concern for the saved and the lost alike.

In today's episode, I'm diving into the critical attitude shift you need to make if you want to win financially—and in life. Inspired by a shoutout to Nick Foles and Pat O'Donnell, we talk about how aggression, not passivity, is the real game-changer. I'll walk you through personal stories from my college days, a career-defining moment at Deloitte, and lessons I've learned about how being passive can cost you big time. If you've ever felt like success is just out of reach, this episode will show you why your mindset might be the missing piece—and how you can turn everything around by adopting an aggressive, go-getter mentality. Trust me, once you hear these stories, you'll understand exactly why being proactive is the key to winning in finances, career, and family life. Key Talking Points of the Episode [00:00] Shoutout to Nick Foles, Pat O'Donnell, and inspiration from the “Dad Szn” [00:47] Why being too passive is costing you financially—and in life [01:40] How your approach determines if you get help or stay stuck [02:19] Story 1: How I turned a B+ into an A by demanding success [04:27] The key difference between asking and framing your goals [05:52] How mentors naturally want to help when you show initiative [07:15] Writing a national bestselling book by boldly telling Wiley my intention [08:15] Story 2: How passivity nearly cost me my career at Deloitte [09:22] Getting a wake-up call from my recruiter—and what it taught me [12:16] Why being “good enough” isn't good enough if you want to win [14:18] How being aggressive versus passive affects every area of your life [16:12] Why you must demand success for yourself—and for your family [16:59] Final call to action: change your attitude, change your life Quotables “The aggressor always wins—the passive get stepped on.” “Demand success like it's non-negotiable, and people will show up to help you win.” “Passivity isn't just a mindset; it's a guarantee that you will lose.” Links & Resources Budgetdog https://budgetdog.com
What do men want? What do women need? And are these unsolvable riddles? Turns out, peace and safety aren't just buzzwords—they're the heartbeat of healthy Christian relationships. In this episode, we dig into a surprising insight: husbands often crave peace, and wives deeply need safety—but both needs grow from the same root… trust. We explore what this looks like practically and spiritually, for people who interact with people—whether single, dating, engaged, or married. Join us as we unpack a powerful reflection that stirred up some serious head-nodding. We talk about how unmet needs can lead to disconnection, drama, or even destructive patterns—but also how flipping the script and doubling down on your side of the relationship can lead to deeper intimacy, healing, and restoration. It's not about finger-pointing. It's about humility, teamwork, and tuning into the Holy Spirit to become a safe and peaceful place for each other. If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “If only they would change… then I could love better,” this episode invites you into a better way—one that honors Christ, builds trust, and offers hope. Whether you're navigating newlywed bumps, deepening your dating connection, or learning how to prepare well in singleness, this episode offers practical wisdom rooted in Scripture and compassion. Let's become people of peace, by walking in the peace of Christ. Romans 12:18...If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Have you ever met someone who's physically present but spiritually checked out? They're alive, but barely. Their ambition is gone, their drive is dead, and they're content doing nothing—just folding their hands while life passes them by. The Bible has a word for this: foolishness. Welcome to The Daily, where we engage with God's Word—verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. Our text today is Ecclesiastes 4:5-6. The fool folds his hands and eats his own flesh. Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind. — Ecclesiastes 4:5-6 Some live in a state of constant motion, striving endlessly for success but never satisfied. Others, however, take the opposite approach—they fold their arms, refusing to engage, and slowly waste away. Solomon calls this man a fool. He is not just lazy; he is self-destructive. He chooses apathy over action, comfort over calling, and in doing so, he devours himself—his potential, his opportunities, his very life. Some people live in a state of constant motion, striving endlessly for success but never satisfied. Others take the opposite approach—they fold their arms, refusing to engage, and slowly waste away. Solomon calls this person a fool. They're not just lazy; they're self-destructive. They choose apathy over action, comfort over calling, and in doing so, they devour themselves—their potential, opportunities, and purpose. Work is not the enemy. Endless toil without purpose is meaningless, but refusing to engage in the work God has given is equally dangerous. The fool justifies inaction, blaming circumstances, others, or even God for a lack of progress. But the real issue isn't external; it's internal. Passivity consumes from the inside out. Solomon offers a better way: “a handful of quietness.” This isn't laziness—it's contentment. It's the balance between diligent work and resting in God's provision. It's the person who labors faithfully without being defined by their work, who leads, builds, serves, and knows when to release control and trust God. Are you folding your hands when you should be working? Are you waiting for life to happen instead of stepping into God's calling? Don't let apathy consume you. Engage. Build. Lead. Serve. Where in your life have you been passive when God has called you to act? Share your thoughts in the comments and take one step today toward active obedience. #ActiveFaith, #SpiritualWakeUp, #EcclesiastesWisdom ASK THIS: Where have I justified inaction in my life? How has passivity affected my spiritual growth? What does “a handful of quietness” look like for me? How can I balance diligent work with resting in God? DO THIS: Identify one area where you've been passive and take a small, intentional step toward active obedience today. PRAY THIS: Lord, reveal where I've been passive and stir my heart to act. Help me find contentment in You as I work faithfully. Amen. PLAY THIS: Satisfied.

Delayed obedience. Partial obedience. Rolling of the eyes. “Selective” listening. A dishonorable tone. Such gestures are tell-tale signs of a child who doesn't honor their parents from the heart. And whenever parents see such signs, they have a duty to promptly get on top of these problems and secure first-time obedience from their children—for it will not go well with them if they fail to honor their father and mother (Exod. 20:12). In this podcast, Scott Brown and Jason Dohm discuss the need for parents to insist on first-time obedience with their children. Slow obedience is disobedience, they explain, for it reflects a heart of dishonor. Proverbs gives this helpful corrective, “The rod and rebuke give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother” (Prov. 29:15). The message is clear: Passivity in child training will lead to disaster. Proper training of our children, on the other hand, requires verbal instruction, with physical discipline to back it up.
Things may look great on social media posts, but for some the holidays aren't so happy, especially with those struggling with strained relationships, sadness and past hurts. Conflicts can happen at work, at church, with friends and in the best of families! But conflicts should lead us to the One to whom we can turn to for direction, strength, and courage. Passivity is not the real path to peace. Resolution rests in confronting the wrong, but with the right heart. We can overcome differences. Hear about different personality types and resolving conflicts.

Luke 19:11-2711 As they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they supposed that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately. 12He said therefore, “A nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and then return.13 Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Engage in business until I come.'14 But his citizens hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We do not want this man to reign over us.' 15 When he returned, having received the kingdom, he ordered these servants to whom he had given the money to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by doing business. 16 The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten minas more.' 17And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.' 18And the second came, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made five minas.' 19 And he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.' 20Then another came, saying, ‘Lord, here is your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief; 21 for I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man. You take what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.' 22He said to him, ‘I will condemn you with your own words, you wicked servant! You knew that I was a severe man, taking what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow? 23 Why then did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I might have collected it with interest?' 24 And he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina from him, and give it to the one who has the ten minas.' 25And they said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!' 26 ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 27But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me.'” Sermon Questions:1. What are some things God has gifted to you in your life? What changes when you see them as gifts?2. What often leads the way in your 'doing business' with the world? e.g. reputation, experience, intelect, etc.3. How can you gengage the world with Jesus held out front?4. Where have you been 'sitting on' the gift of Jesus? Why?5. How does living faithfully change if it's not about you doing 'all the things' for Jesus but instead about being with Jesus?
