The Patriarchy Podcast | The Great Commission or the Great Guilt Trip? How to Do Missions Without Destroying Your Family Are you a real Christian if you haven’t sold your house, moved overseas, and blogged about orphans from a hammock? In this episode, Pastor Joseph Spurgeon sits down with Alex Kocman (ABWE) to talk missions—real missions. Not the kind that wrecks homes and shames ordinary men, but the kind that builds families, churches, and nations. They expose the guilt-driven radicalism of modern missions and offer a biblically grounded, manly alternative.

You've mastered holding the weight of your family, business, and reputation but no one taught you how to be there for yourself. Even with all your wealth, success, and respect, something still feels missing. This isn't your weakness; it's the unspoken reality of high-achieving men. In this deeply personal episode, I break down the pattern I see repeatedly in my work with men at the top of their game: how the very strength that built your success has become your emotional prison. Behind all that control lies a quiet fear of collapse, and beneath that fear is a younger part of you still waiting to be met. We'll explore why emotional suppression often masquerades as strength and how it's actually limiting your potential. You'll see the real reason successful men feel isolated despite everything they've achieved, and learn how to identify the core beliefs that keep you carrying weight that was never yours. You might not feel safe sharing your burdens with your wife, your friends, or your team and there's a reason for that. I'll show you what to do instead. Through the anchor analogy, you'll gain a new perspective on your emotional baggage, and I'll walk you through real, practical steps to begin releasing it. This isn't just another motivational video. I'm walking you through the same coaching framework I use with clients, revealing how high-performing men often lack safe spaces for vulnerability and how that isolation feeds the cycle of suppression. You'll see that every behavior holding you back comes from an emotion you're avoiding. That the fear of losing what you've built becomes stronger than the joy of having it. That your strength, once a survival tool, doesn't have to be your cage. Real change doesn't require fixing everything at once it starts with awareness. If you're tired of feeling like you're carrying the weight of the world… if success feels more like pressure than freedom… and if you're ready to see what's on the other side of all the walls you've built to protect yourself, then this episode is for you. The transformation begins with one simple intention: recognizing that much of the weight you're carrying was never yours to bear in the first place. Ready to go deeper?

Why do strong men struggle to lead at home, feel disconnected from their kids, and stay stuck in surface-level growth even when they've read all the books and done the work?In this episode Dino from the We Evolve Together podcast and Ben from RISING KINGS collaborate again, diving deep into the unseen reason men in their 40s lose respect, presence, and purpose.What they uncover isn't another tactic—it's a truth most men avoid:Growth isn't found in the grind. It's found in the space you create for yourself and for others that allows you to navigate the challenges. Inside, they explore:The real reason your wife and kids feel distant (even when you're “showing up”)Why better questions unlock the clearest version of who you areHow to stop rushing to fix everything and lead through presence insteadThe close bond inside RISING KINGS that men outside rarely experienceHow to reclaim your fire, identity, and soul-driven clarity without sacrificing your edgeWhether you're a father, husband, or business owner feeling like something's “off” beneath the surface, this episode will hit you in the gut in all the right ways.Connect with DinoInstagram: @weevolv3Podcast: We Evolve Together FREE MIDLIFE DRIFT ASSESSMENT

There are two main forces of power available to you as a husband and father.One is a destructive force.This force is a “my way or the highway” energy.It intimidates to get its way.And, it is more powerful than doing nothing.And, it ends in people wanting to create distance from you, making you feel lonely in your marriage.The other force available to you is the TRANSFORMATIONAL force.This power allows you to stop what needs to be stopped…But in order to build what you want to build…A loving relationship with your wife and children.It is MORE POWERFUL than the destructive force, because it INCLUDES, DEFEATS and TRANSFORMS the destructive force.Learn how to access this TRUE power of transformation in today's episode.Watch on YouTube here.And to join us in becoming a truly powerful husband and father who creates a passionate, intimate marriage with his wife, a loving, mentoring relationship with his kids, and sets the example for generations to follow in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy addresses the importance of instilling consistent and automatic character in kids to prepare them for proper leadership roles. As the world witnesses a trend of young men gravitating toward authoritarian leaders, Dr. Kathy emphasizes the dangers of this mindset and the need for parents to guide their children toward understanding biblical leadership. She advocates for following the example of servant leaders, particularly Jesus, to foster a generation equipped to discern healthy leadership. The discussion also touches on a recent poll from the UK revealing concerning attitudes among young adults towards governance. Tune in for valuable insights on nurturing future leaders with integrity and discernment.  

In our marriage and parenting, we're often too hard or too soft.When we're too hard, we are angry, frustrated, or overly controlling of what people do.This comes from our own discomfort of letting others do things differently.And, it leads to people distancing from us.When we feel that distance, we often go too soft. Too permissive. Too weak.And, our wives and kids kind of like that…But they don't respect us or feel safe with us.And we don't feel safe or respect ourselves.Thankfully, there is a “just right” place to be a parent and a husband.One where we have the love AND respect of others…And we love and respect ourselves.Learn about this in today's episode.Listen on the Strong Men Strong Marriages Podcast. https://strongmenstrongmarriages.buzzsprout.com/Watch on YouTube here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmxd3VzEvgoAnd to join us in growing our gardens and husbands and fathers with God, join us in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

You want to be the best husband.You want to be the best father.You want to be the best at your job.That pressure can help you perform…But it also leads to a feeling of pressure, stress…And even rejection and not feeling good enough.Unfortunately, those aren't the best feelings to build a family foundation on.Instead, you can view your family as a garden.A garden that God is in charge of, and that you have a part in.A garden that if you make a mistake, God can heal it.Now you can rest, play, grow and create. And work. But you don't have to work to earn rest or earn your place in the garden.You belong.Watch on YouTube here.And to join us in growing our gardens and husbands and fathers with God, join us in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

What happens when doing the right thing costs you everything? Meet the man who chose integrity over compliance—and lived to teach others how to do the same.Stephen Davis is a battle-tested leader who's worn multiple hats:U.S. Army combat medic and Special Forces candidateDecorated fire battalion chief with 15+ years of serviceAuthor of Alone in the Fire, exposing government corruptionFounder of the Raising Alphas Project, mentoring next-gen leadersIn 2021, as an Orange County Fire Department battalion chief, Davis was ordered to punish firefighters resisting COVID mandates. When he discovered the disciplinary lists included exempt personnel—close friends and colleagues—he refused. The result? Termination. But his fight was just beginning.Quotes:"Your most passionate performers are your strongest leaders when they're not heard, when they're not listened to, when their voice isn't given any level of respect." - Stephen Davis"Isn't the downhill part the best part of the ride? Anytime you go on a roller coaster, isn't that the time we're all screaming with fun?" - Stephen Davis"What I can control is the family that I'm raising. What I can do my best to do is build these tribes." - Matt BeaudreauKey Takeaways:Audit Your IntegrityAsk yourself: "Where have I compromised my values to avoid conflict or protect my position?"Action: Write down one principle you're unwilling to bend on—no matter the cost.Challenge Authority (Wisely)Lesson: Blind compliance enables corruption. Leaders question unjust orders.Action: The next time you're pressured to enforce something questionable, ask: "Is this lawful, ethical, and morally right?" If not, push back.Build Financial & Emotional ResilienceLesson: Davis survived losing his career because he had other skills and income streams.Action: Start a side hustle, learn a trade, or save 6 months' expenses. Freedom requires options.Conclusion:Stephen Davis' story isn't just about losing a job—it's about what happens when one person refuses to kneel. His stand cost him his career, but it revealed a timeless truth: real leadership isn't about authority—it's about moral defiance.Final Thought: The systems around us want compliance. They fear conviction. So ask yourself:What hill am I willing to die on?What legacy will my choices leave?If I don't stand now, when will I?Davis proved that one voice can ignite many. The question is—will yours be next?Subscribe for more unfiltered leadership insights. ChiefStephenDavis.com 

 I used to think that the way to heal was three simple steps.Step 1 –Identify your old, negative, unattractive patterns.Step 2 – Create new positive attractive patterns.Step 3 - Practice the new patterns until you can't get them wrongAnd, that sequence does work.However, it misses some important things.Mainly, it misses acknowledging why the old patterns were there in the first place.It doesn't give compassion to the younger you's and the current you that are acting the way you are because you're scared or sad.And, because of that, you don't really heal and keep acting out the same old patterns.Learn what to do instead in today's episode.Watch on YouTube here.And to join us in becoming better husbands and fathers, join us in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

Missiles are flying, nuclear sites have been bombed, and now Donald Trump has declared a ceasefire. Why do Israel and Iran hate each other? Who are the men in charge? And how much is ego fuelling this conflict?

I've had a pattern in my marriage.I feel hurt by something.The kids or Elizabeth ignoring me. The kids being rude. Elizabeth turning away from a hug or kiss.Then, I get mad.I pull away. I think to myself “Fine, if they don't want me then they can pay for everything themselves!”I picture leaving them alone to fend for themselves.I can say mean things and get angry when I feel this way.Then later, I calm down and regret this…But there's been damage done. I've scared my family and created lack of safety.I've been trying to get rid of this pattern for a LONG time.But I feel like I've found the answer.It's working on my inner child.You see, my inner child is looking for my family to provide unconditional love. To take care of me.And, my younger me's do need that.But, it's not my kids' job to take care of me. It's my job to take care of them.And, it's not my wife's job to be my unconditionally loving “mother.” It's our job to work in partnership in life together. She needs a husband, not another kid.And so, it falls on me to parent those younger me's and give them unconditional love.I'm just starting the journey, and I think it's the key to breaking some very difficult patterns.Learn more on today's episode.Watch on YouTube here.And to become a man who makes this generation better than the last, join us in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

In this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler sits down with Peter Atwater—President of Financial Insyghts, author of The Confidence Map, and expert on decision-making under uncertainty. Peter lays out a bold and timely framework: in a world led by dominant nationalist figures, global corporations—and their investors—must now navigate a high-stakes game of being labeled either beneficiaries or victims. This conversation digs deep into how these dynamics shape capital flows, investor sentiment, policy risk, and the future of globalization.

This past week I had the chance to stand up for someone else.A large man was being threatening and eventually physically aggressive to his wife or girlfriend (not sure which it was)..Thanks to the MMA training I've been receiving from Ethyn Ewing (here's a recent knockout of his)...I felt confident to confront the guy and stop him from continuing to abuse this woman.It felt great to join the ranks of men who will stand up physically for what's right.It made me realize that confrontation is one of the main masculine traits.The willingness to confront and fight others is a lot of what makes a man.Whether that confrontation is physical, mental, emotional or spiritual.And it takes physical, mental, emotional and spiritual strength to step into that confrontation.Hear more about what happened on today's episode.Watch on YouTube here.And to become a man who fights for what is right, join us in Strong Men Strong Marriages.Dr. Mike P.S.

When you wife says she wants space…It's SCARY!Our brains usually go to thinking she wants to leave, whether that's true or not.Usually we either go to pleading for her not to leave…Or we go to anger.Both of these are unattractive and push our wives away.Instead, we can share what we're actually feeling…Ask for her help…And take care of ourselves.Learn more about this in today's episode.Watch on YouTube here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5FvaokDOcYAnd join the program to learn how to do this together.Dr. Mike P.S.

“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.” When comfort becomes the norm, weakness takes root—and that's when the real trouble starts. We're living through a time where traditional values are under attack, strength is mocked, and confusion is celebrated. This episode explores why hard times are back—and why strong men are more important than ever. Geoff Hopf talks about the cycle of history, where each generation shapes the next—and how we're now in the “crisis” stage. From political division to collapsing culture, he lays out what happens when weak leadership takes over and what it'll take to turn things around. G. Michael Hopf is a former Marine and bestselling author of over 40 novels, including The End and The Cries of a Dying World. His quote “Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create hard times” has become a global rallying cry—and a lightning rod for controversy.

What's your goal for your marriage?A wife who is excited to see you?A wife who hugs, kisses and has sex with you?A wife who appreciates you?And that should happen all the time, right?And if not, something is wrong. Right?Well, this mindset of having an “endpoint” to marriage usually leads to frustration.God helped me see that it's much better to see your wife and marriage as a plant.Something that has seasons.

It can be easy to get into a downward spiral about our wife and marriage.The sex isn't there.The connection isn't there.We're dealing with infidelity, separation or divorce.It can all seem pretty hopeless.And, when we feel hopeless, we don't feel good, we're not attractive, and we don't solve our problems.Fortunately, there's a way out of this.It's gratitude.Not necessarily for our wife, but for the fact that God has our back.When we can see and feel that, we feel empowered, which is attractive.And, we can start solving problems effectively.Learn more in today's episode.This is a tool from the book The Tools Listen on the Strong Men Strong Marriages Podcast. Watch on YouTube here.And join the program to learn how to do this together.Dr. Mike P.S.

In this week's episode of The Gedunk Show, Bobby and Dan dive deep into the idea that the little things matter. From Shedeur Sanders' drop in the NFL Draft to how accountability—or the lack of it—shapes everything from locker rooms to the Oval Office, we explore the intersection of humility, leadership, and power. We look at how Shedeur's story isn't just about football—it's about race, economics, and what society values. Then we pivot to the political world: Trump, Pete Hegseth, and Michael Waltz, and how dodging the “small stuff” has led to some of the biggest national failures in leadership. In both sports and politics, character counts. And it's often revealed in the moments most people overlook.

We've all heard the quote, “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times.” Today, I have the author of that quote, Geoff Hopf on the podcast to talk about what he meant when we penned that phrase. Today, we talk about moral weakness and lacking skillsets, why masculinity does not need to be redefined, why accepting reality is such a crucial part of men's growth, why all men want to be part of something great, the 4 pillars of survival, and overcoming illogical belief systems.

In this episode of International Horizons, RBI director John Torpey speaks with Stephen Hanson and Jeffrey Kopstein, co-authors of The Assault on the State: How the Global Attack on Modern Government Endangers Our Future (Polity Press, 2024). In this conversation, they discuss how today's right-wing movements, from the United States to Hungary, are waging a new form of politics that undermines the very foundations of the modern, rules-based state. Drawing on Max Weber's concept of “patrimonialism,” Hanson and Kopstein explore how these leaders erode public trust, demolish impersonal bureaucracies, and replace rational governance with personal loyalty and whim. Along the way, they examine the role of conspiracy theories, the rise of “deep state” narratives, and the uneasy alliances connecting libertarians, Christian nationalists, and advocates of an all-powerful executive.

In the compelling second half of Lisa Bilyeu's conversation with Jason Wilson, the focus shifts to solution-oriented frameworks and the revolutionary concept of “the comprehensive man.” Jason breaks down the key differences between the traditional masculine man—trapped by stoicism, performance, and aggression—and the comprehensive man, who brings emotional range, compassion, and true partnership into every area of his life. Lisa and Jason walk through the “green flags” of a healthy, emotionally mature partner, drawing a practical roadmap for women and men seeking deep, lasting connections. Jason explores the roles of fighter, provider, leader, lover, nurturer, friend, husband, father, and son, explaining how each archetype transforms when a man is free from cultural conditioning. Together, they address building boundaries, overcoming generational trauma, healing, and how both men and women must re-learn what it means to love and be loved. If you're ready to drop outdated scripts and build real intimacy, this powerhouse conclusion will inspire you to rethink everything you know about relationships.

Lisa Bilyeu sits down with transformational coach, speaker, and best-selling author Jason Wilson for an unfiltered, eye-opening conversation on men, masculinity, and emotional connection. Jason is the founder of the “Cave of Adullam,” a life training academy for boys and men, and he's developed a reputation for helping men break free from emotional suppression and cultural programming. With the communication gap between men and women wider than ever, Jason joins Lisa as a much-needed “translator,” decoding what men think but often don't say. Together, they dig deep into generational wounds, emotional barriers, and the misunderstandings that keep men and women disconnected from one another. Through a game of “Why Does a Man…?” Jason exposes surprising truths about commitment fears, intimacy, cheating, and why men fear vulnerability. Lisa shares her own honest reactions, highlighting the ways that society's conflicting scripts hurt women, too. Whether you're struggling to understand the men in your life or looking to heal and set boundaries, this episode is a must-listen.

Send us a textWhat happens when a successful businessman who views God as merely "a hedge against going to hell" suffers a massive heart attack that leaves him paralyzed with fear each night? Eric Bucher's powerful testimony of transformation takes us from that moment of crisis to an extraordinary spiritual awakening that changed everything.After his heart attack, Eric found himself questioning life's purpose while driving to visit his critically ill father. Suddenly, he saw himself clearly—a "chrome polisher" presenting different versions of himself to different people while rusting from within. This moment of painful self-awareness led to a profound surrender on his knees, asking Jesus to either take his life or give him a new one.What followed was nine days of what Eric calls "chaotic joy"—an overwhelming emotional and spiritual experience where he felt heaven touching earth. Most remarkably, despite being new to faith, Eric received what can only be described as a supernatural download of biblical understanding, allowing him to discuss theological concepts with a depth that astonished even his Bible-studying wife.This transformation wasn't just internal. Eric immediately began putting James 1:22 into action—"Don't just be hearers of the word, go and do what it says." He founded multiple ministries, including reading scripture to elderly nursing home residents, prison outreach, and creating "Sons of Men," a father-son wilderness experience teaching intentional spiritual leadership.Throughout his testimony, Eric emphasizes how authentic community with other men has been integral to his growth, providing spaces where he can be vulnerable about his failures without fear of judgment. His story powerfully illustrates how surrender, intentionality, and brotherhood create the foundation for lasting transformation from broken to whole.Support the showWe have BIG plans at Foxhole Symphony and sure could use your financial support.
