Send us a textJoshua 8 shows us that failure does not have to be the end of the story but it does demand obedience and follow-through. After the defeat at Ai in chapter 7, the Lord restores Israel, gives clear instruction, and calls Joshua and the people to move forward with courage and precision. This time, they listen. This time, they do exactly what God says.In this episode of The Pursuit of Manliness, we look at what it means to become men who don't just start strong but finish faithfully. Joshua 8 reminds us that obedience requires patience, discipline, and trust in God's plan even when it's slower, more strategic, or less dramatic than we'd prefer.We also see Joshua model leadership that follows through on God's Word, not just in battle, but in worship. After the victory, Joshua builds an altar, reads the Law aloud, and leads the people in remembrance. Real manhood isn't just about winning fights—it's about finishing the work God gives us and anchoring our lives in His truth.Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Join The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herd Build your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderRegister for our 2026 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2026-mens-retreatSupport the show
Share a commentA street sermon in Akron. An attic prayer. And a life that wouldn't make peace with a low view of God. We follow A.W. Tozer's journey from a teenage conversion to a ministry that challenged the church to recover holiness, embrace lordship, and set our minds on things above. Drawing a line from Peter's invitation at Pentecost to Colossians 3, we explore why a towering vision of Christ changes everything—from the way we worship to how we preach and live.I share Tozer's fiercest insights in his own words: why entertainment can't sustain a church, how “motion” often mimics growth, and what true exposition aims to do—produce moral action, not mere information. We also talk about the work behind The Pursuit of God and the need to behold the majesty of the One who sits enthroned, who calls the stars by name, and never learns because He already knows all things. This isn't a call to be louder; it's a call to be deeper.But the story isn't airbrushed. We reckon with Tozer's blind spots at home—the distance, the costs of relentless focus—and what that teaches us about holding a high view of God alongside a practiced love for people. If you've felt the ache for more than spiritual gadgets and clever slogans, consider this your invitation: raise your gaze, expand your heart, and let truth lead to action.If this conversation stirred you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review with one way you plan to set your mind on things above this week.Support the showStephen's latest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

Send us a textIn Joshua 7, victory gives way to defeat and the reason is uncomfortable. Sin is hidden, accountability is avoided, and God's people pay the price. On today's episode we discuss how we need a wake-up call for men who want strength without holiness and progress without obedience. We'll unpack Achan's compromise, Israel's failure to seek the Lord, and the sobering truth that private sin always has public consequences. But this chapter isn't just a warning it's an invitation. An invitation to lead with integrity, to deal honestly with what's hidden, and to pursue the kind of manhood that takes God seriously, even when it costs us.Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Join The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herd Build your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderRegister for our 2026 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2026-mens-retreatSupport the show

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now--Brandi and AJ's Story: Mormon to Atheist to ChristianBrandi and AJ were doing everything “right.” They were BYU grads, married, building a life, raising kids, and fully committed to the LDS vision of a faithful future. AJ describes it like “grinding for godhood”—a life built on steps, worthiness, temple goals, and constant striving. But then the foundation started to crack.For AJ, some of the doctrinal history raised unsettling questions (including ideas like “blood atonement,” which they mention they'll unpack later). For Brandi, the tipping point was watching changes in the LDS church after COVID and feeling like the church was shifting in a more progressive direction. She tried to address it the way a devoted member would: she wrote letters to Salt Lake City headquarters about what she saw as inconsistency—especially related to abortion and human life. She wasn't trying to tear anything down. She genuinely believed the LDS church was true, and she wanted it to be consistent.But the response felt dismissive—more like a polite pat on the head than a meaningful engagement. That frustration pushed them into a place they never thought they'd go: researching.Looking for answers… without wanting to “deconstruct”Brandi makes an important clarification: they weren't hunting for “gotcha” moments. They didn't go searching because they assumed the church was false. In fact, they needed it to be true. That's why reading outside sources felt dangerous. AJ describes that fear as avoiding the “cognitive dissonance fire”—because their hearts were convinced, and they didn't want their minds persuaded that everything was a lie.But once they started reading, the “genie” didn't go back in the bottle.They looked at sources like MormonThink because it included multiple perspectives—both critical claims and apologetic responses. That felt more balanced. Still, it wasn't official, and Brandi felt guilty even being there. Eventually, as more historical issues piled up (like multiple First Vision accounts, questions surrounding the Book of Abraham, and other details they had never been taught), Brandi felt desperate for the church itself to clarify things. So they turned to the Gospel Topics Essays—official LDS content hosted on the LDS website.That's where everything shifted.Instead of restoring confidence, the essays confirmed key issues and, in Brandi's view, exposed more “spin” than clarity. For the first time, she seriously wrestled with the question: What if the church isn't true?The crossroads: nuance or truthAJ explains how people often survive early doubts by “nuancing” their faith—making room for uncomfortable data while keeping the system intact. But eventually, they reached a crossroads: Would they live in a...

Why do some people feel their shelf of unanswered questions eventually breaks? In this Y Religion episode, Professor Jared Halverson discusses his article "Broken Shelves or Continuing Revelation? Extending the Shelf Life of Faith" and reframes the idea of a faith shelf into three shelves—revelation past, present, and future. He explains how remembering God's past mercies, engaging in current spiritual learning, and patiently awaiting future revelation can strengthen faith and prevent spiritual stagnation. Through scripture, storytelling, and years of working with students in faith crises, Dr. Halverson offers a shelf-by-shelf process for extending the shelf life of our faith.

Send us a textGod's ways are rarely what we would expect, and Joshua 6 makes that unmistakably clear. As Israel stands before the walls of Jericho, the Lord doesn't hand them a battle plan built on strength, strategy, or military dominance. Instead, He calls them to obedience, patience, and trust in a plan that makes no sense by human standards.In this episode of The Pursuit of Manliness Podcast, we explore the unorthodox way of the Lord and what it reveals about biblical manhood. What does it look like to lead when God's instructions challenge our pride, logic, and desire for control? How do men remain faithful when obedience feels foolish or slow?Joshua 6 reminds us that true strength is found not in force, but in faith and that victory belongs to the Lord alone.

Social media. Gaming communities. Private messaging. Endless scrolling. And the truth is, most of us are trying to parent through technology we don't fully understand—while our kids often understand it better than we do.In this episode, Tracy teams up with her son AJ (almost 23) to offer a “field guide” for navigating the digital world with your kids. AJ grew up in the smartphone/social media era and shares what he's learned—both from experience and from research. They call it a cautionary tale, not because parents should panic, but because parents should wake up.Here's the big idea: a smartphone isn't just a phone. It's a powerful tool with access to an entire universe—and a lot of that universe is unfiltered, unsafe, and deeply shaping.The Pressure Is Real—But So Is the DangerParents feel the pressure early. Today, many kids are getting smartphones in elementary school. And when “everyone has one,” kids start to feel like they'll be left out socially if they don't.AJ shares that this pressure isn't just about having a device—it's about access to the communication apps everyone uses. If your kid isn't on the group chat or the app the team uses, they can feel isolated.But here's the problem: social pressure is not a good reason to hand your child a tool they aren't ready to handle.Start With the Right Question: Is My Kid Ready for the Responsibility?A better question than “When should my kid get a phone?” is: Is my child ready for this responsibility?There are phone options that allow for basic communication without opening the floodgates of social media, porn, and endless content. Parents can start with a “dumb phone” and treat it like training wheels.AJ compares it to driving a car: you don't hand your kid the keys and hope for the best. You teach them. You supervise. You build habits. You set boundaries. You require trust and responsibility over time.Boundaries Aren't About Control—They're About ProtectionIf you decide to give your child a phone, boundaries matter.Some practical boundaries include:Screen time limits (and learning delayed gratification)No phone in the bedroom at nightCharging phones in a public placeNo phone use until...

While most of the industry uses December to wind down and coast into the new year, we've been doing the exact opposite. January hit and it was an immediate sprint. We've been back on the road, opening up new markets, and staring down the barrel of distributor meetings and case goals. If you look at our single barrel requests right now, everything is looking "up and to the right," but in this business, the view from the top is always a little precarious. The real question isn't just how you grow, but how you stay there. In this episode of Behind the Pursuit, Ryan and I are pulling back the curtain on what it actually looks like to enter new markets in 2026. We're diving into the nitty-gritty of distributor communications and why a solid on-premise strategy may be the only way to survive a landscape that is getting more crowded by the day. We also get honest about the challenges smaller brands face when trying to stay nimble while consumer preferences are shifting right under our feet. It's a look at the balance between aggressive growth and the strategic planning you need to make sure that "up and to the right" trend doesn't just become a flash in the pan.Show Notes: Introduction and Market Overview Product Launches and Consumer Demand Market Trends and Consumer Preferences On-Premise Strategy and Cocktail Placement Challenges and Competition in the Whiskey Market Future Goals and Strategic Planning Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textIn Joshua 5, the people of Israel finally step into the land God promised, but before the battles begin, God calls them to stop, remember, and draw near. Circumcision is renewed, the Passover is celebrated, manna ceases, and Joshua comes face to face with the Commander of the Lord's army. Victory doesn't start with strategy or strength—it starts with holiness, obedience, and reverence.In this episode of The Pursuit of Manliness Podcast, we wrestle with a hard truth: many men live close to God, but not close enough. We're nearby, familiar with the language and the routines, yet distant in obedience, humility, and surrender.This conversation challenges men to examine where they may be settling for spiritual proximity instead of true nearness. What does it look like to consecrate ourselves, remove the sandals, and recognize whose battle we're really fighting?Joshua 5 reminds us that before God works through a man, He often works on a man.Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Join The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herd Build your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderRegister for our 2026 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2026-mens-retreatSupport the show

Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle joined Papa & Silver following the Giants' addition of outfielder Harrison Bader on a two-year deal. She discusses Bader's potential to improve the club's outfield defense -- which struggled mightily in 2025 -- and how his intense personality might play in the clubhouse. She also provides insight into the recent report that the Giants pursued Washington Nationals shortstop C.J. Abrams, and what it might cost to acquire a player of that caliber and young age.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Clutter, Cortisol & Hormone Chaos: How Your Home Is Draining Your Energy Fatigue, brain fog, low energy, weight loss resistance, and even IBS can sometimes start in a place most women never think to look: the clutter on the floor and the piles on the counter. Have you ever walked into a messy room, felt your stress spike, and suddenly had zero energy left for your family, your health, or yourself? In this episode, I sit down with decluttering and home-management expert Katy Wells to unpack the surprising connection between clutter, cortisol, hormone balance, metabolism, gut health, and sleep. We talk about why traditional decluttering checklists don't work for busy women, how your "stuff story" gets wired into your nervous system, and what clutter is really doing to your stress hormones behind the scenes. If you're working on hormone balance, digestive health, perimenopause symptoms, or stubborn weight loss and still feel stuck, this conversation gives you a fresh angle: change your environment to support your biology. Key Points from This Episode The clutter–cortisol connection How a messy, visually chaotic home keeps cortisol elevated all day and can worsen fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, metabolism, and gut health—especially in perimenopause and menopause. The four types of clutter (and why checklists fail) Katy breaks down superficial, scarcity, sentimental, and identity clutter—and why each one needs a different approach if you actually want lasting change. Your "stuff story" and stress How family patterns, money fears, and past experiences shape the way you hold onto things—and quietly keep your nervous system on high alert, affecting energy, digestive health, and weight loss resistance. Why your bedroom and kitchen matter most The research-backed reasons clutter in your bedroom can sabotage sleep and why a chaotic kitchen can lead to overeating, sugar cravings, and a sluggish metabolism. This episode is for you if you're doing "all the right things" for hormone balance, gut health, metabolism, and energy, but your home feels overwhelming and you can't figure out why you're still so wired, tired, bloated, or stuck with weight loss resistance. You'll hear what clutter really represents, why it has such a powerful impact on cortisol, digestion, and hormone balance—and how changing your physical space can create the foundation for better sleep, calmer moods, fewer IBS flares, and more stable energy throughout the day. The step-by-step "how" to start shifting your space (and your stress response) is all inside the episode—so hit play and see how clearing your home can support your brain fog, fatigue, perimenopause, digestive health, and overall metabolism from the inside out.

In this month's special, Melissa from Just The Tip-Sters shares a case close to her heart with Cam & Jen. It's a head-scratcher. In May 2011, Bill and Peggy Stephenson, a kind, generous, and deeply loved couple from Florence, Kentucky, were brutally murdered inside their own home. Both were 74 years old. Their deaths sent shockwaves through Northern Kentucky and left family, friends, and an entire community searching for answers. More than a decade later, this horrific double homicide remains unsolved. There was no obvious motive, no clear suspects, and no explanation that made sense. Even seasoned detectives and the FBI have described the case as complex, haunting, and deeply baffling. The Boone County Sheriff's Department continues to pursue leads and believes that more than one person may have information about what happened that night. Investigators have vowed to leave no stone unturned, but they still need public help. If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please get in touch with law enforcement. Boone County Sheriff's Department Phone: 859-334-8496 Toll-Free Tip Line: 844-210-1111 Email: stephensontip@boonecountyky.org If you know anything about the murders of Bill and Peggy Stephenson, please speak up. One detail could be the key to ending this long nightmare and bringing justice to a family that has waited far too long.

Have you ever noticed how certain lighting instantly makes you feel edgy - like your eyes get tired, your head feels busy, and your patience disappears faster than usual?This episode wasn't part of the original plan for the Safety Series, but it felt important enough to add.Because in this one, I'm talking about something we rarely connect to hormones, or PMS: the way your eyes take in light all day long. You might be surprised to learn how that small light bulb in your bedroom can actually keep your brain working overtime. The screens we stare at, even just to relax, and the constant visual input our brains are trying to process, can quietly pile on stress without us ever connecting the dots.Over time, that extra demand can show up as irritability, low energy, and even ADHD-like symptoms, especially later in your cycle.A few things I talk through in this episode:Why your eyes can keep your nervous system switched on even when you're restingHow certain types of light quietly make PMS and overwhelm feel worseSimple, affordable changes that can help your brain wind down at nightThis conversation is practical, gentle, and very doable.
