- 97As One Part 1 with Dusty Davis – Audio OnlyWe live in an age where people cling tightly to their beliefs, and aren’t afraid to cancel those who disagree. Our culture is politically minded and dangerously divided. I wonder, is the church any different? Christ’s final prayer was that we would be unified. That we would be one. Truly, if Christ is what unites us? What thoughts, opinions or viewpoints could be strong enough to divide us? As God’s men we must reclaim the unity of the body of Christ if we are to move forward and display Jesus to a world that desperately needs to meet Him.
- 98Multiply Part 6 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyGOD is a giver. In case you have ever doubted that aspect of his character or plain forgot that, just remind yourself that God "so loved the world that he GAVE his only Son" to save you. Ponder that again. Unlike us, God is not a witholder when the stakes are high. God does not operate on the scarcity principle. God unleashes generosity on us like parents unleash it on Christmas morning - we don't deserve all the stuff we get but we get it anyways! So if that is him, if that is what he models, then the actions of his kids follows the example of the Father right? We multiply what he gives us with others right? Hard stop.The answers to those simple but raw questions is the acid test of real Christianity. The other stuff is fluff. Generosity reveals our reality spiritually and will shape our eternity.
- 99Multiply Part 5 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyAnybody ever said to you, "You are so good at that?" Remembering that the least objective person about you is you (lol), ALL of us have abilities that we possess that rank higher than others. We often say things like "I am better with hammer than I am with a paint brush" or "I don't have the musical gene in this family." Some of our abilities we were born with and some that we have are "gifts" from the Holy Spirit. God's Word says that in both cases - He is the source and he wants you to use and multiply them for his purposes. He knows what talents and gifts He has given you and why. Do you? Join pastor and men's expert Kenny Luck for a deep dive into your personal and spiritual skill sets and how you can use them to fulfill his purposes.
- 100Multiply Part 4 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyOne of the hardest truths a man must face is this: if he is not doing relationships right, he's not doing life right. When people come to our memorial or celebration of life, they will not be talking about our bank balance, where we went on vacation, what kind of car we drove, or brands we clothed ourselves in. They will only have one thing to talk about at length or else nothing to talk about - how did we love and serve other people. Same with God when you land in heaven on other side. He will say: "You're in! Now let's talk about what you did with the people I placed strategically in your life. Did you love them the way i loved you?" Smart men discipline themselves toward relationships and making them great. Join pastor and men's expert Kenny Luck for this life altering session on getting relationships right in order to prepare for heaven right.
- 101“Multiply” Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlySometimes opportunity knocks softly and we have to be paying really close attention. Other times opportunity slaps us across the face and there is immediate recognition and response. The Bible says the moment any person chooses to begin and eternally continue a relationship with Jesus Christ, it is a magnitude 8.0 earthquake on the opportunity scale. God says: “Continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.” THWACK! Are you working OUT and multiplying what God has worked IN to you? Join author and men's expert Kenny Luck for this powerful session on what personal Christ-formation and transformation involves and looks like in God's man.
- 102Multiply Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyThink tools. We LOVE tools and the local hardware outlet proves it. Some of us can't get enough of them! But whether you have a workbench with lots of tools or a mini-tool box with just the basic essentials, if a tool finds it's way into your hand there is a specific job it is designed to do. Tools are created to deliver for us the expressed purpose of their creators and we love them for that - even thank God for a well designed tool that saves us time and energy. What about you? What about your creator? What about his specific intentions for you? Just like there is nothing more frustrating than trying to untighten a deeply imbedded screw with a butter knife, many men are frustrated and unfulfilled because they give themselves to purposes they were never created to engage in. The Bible says you are an instrument useful to the Master, prepared by him for specific works. Adios frustration. Hello fulfillment of His vision.
- 103“Multiply” Part 1 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyGivers need receivers. Think Birthdays. Think Christmas. Think of thoughtful surprises. We give and others receive or vice-versa. But after the wrapping is undone, the gift is received, and thanks are offered, what we really would like to know is this: did what we give get used and enjoyed or go in a closet or garage or get re-gifted? Bottom line? We earnestly hope that our gift gets multiplied. The "gift that keeps on giving" is the goal! In your relationship with God, when he gives things to you, he not only tracks your initial response but, more importantly, what we do with what gives us. Think life. Think salvation. Think relationships. Think natural and spiritual gifts. Think material resources. Just like us, the Bible declares that His hope is the same: "I want what I have given him to multiply." JOIN men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck for this powerful five part series that will help you understand God's mind on what he gives you. In the process, you will become a multiplier that will receive a "Well done!" from your Maker and Master on your appointed day.

- 105Behind the Door Part 5 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyIntuition. Instinct. A sixth sense. A nose for what is happening that is unseen but real. A soldier says "something is not right" and they halt a platoon but in the moment they can't explain why and others don't sense what they sense. Today we might say our "spidey senses" are tingling. Military researchers call it "perceptual expertise" or the ability to recognize things in your environment reliably, automatically and quickly. If you are God's man the Bible calls for an "alert mind" that is sensitive to your surroundings and environment. More specifically, Jesus tells his followers the ability to recognize and sense the Kingdom, the battle, and the opportunity to take action is central to fulfilling your personal missions for him. How good is your Kingdom intuition on the battlefield? Join pastor and men's expert Kenny Luck for this powerful final session of Behind the Door.
- 106Behind the Door Part 4 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyEvery heard the phrase "Get a whiff of that guy?" Curious way to describe picking up a "vibe" someone is throwing off. Why use our sense of smell as a metaphor to evaluate someone? It's because smells are not neutral - you judge them. Good or bad. You want more or less. You avoid or embrace them. Think fresh cut grass. Gas at the service station. Mama's sauce or apple pie. The Bible says that a Kingdom man is like an aroma that let's people know something is present that they can't see. God's man is "spreading everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of God." When people encounter you they both see and sense King Kingdom because you are living Behind The Door. Or not. In this powerful session men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck explores our influence on others and the commission to smell it up for Jesus.
- 107Behind the Door Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyStarting a relationship does not pose the same challenge as staying rooted and connected in a relationship. In fact, getting into a relationship with anyone is the easy part but staying meaningfully engaged, interested, and growing in that relationship is where the biggest challenges reside. It all boils down to priorities - what we care most about will absorb our greatest focus and energies. The same thing is true about our relationship with God, his purposes, and his Kingdom - if it is a priority to stay connected to them then we will adopt a new lifestyle and attitude that insures we stay meaningfully and powerfully connected. Easier said than done? Yes. Impossible? No. The difference maker? Shifting our focus from ourselves to something greater than self. Are you ready for that journey?
- 108Behind the Door Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyHave you ever wanted to know everything all at once? It is human nature to want to know what's coming before it comes because in life - when it comes to choices and consequences - the fewer the surprises the better! You want to be sure you are making right decisions that maximize the good stuff and avoid the bad. All followers of Jesus - from the first ones to now - are attracted to Jesus but we can't see the whole picture of our lives on the journey with him. We only see a step or two ahead but never the whole. The Kingdom of God is like a "seed" that is in a process of growing and expanding in our lives but only if we choose relationship with Jesus and listen do get to go behind the door and find the next things out. Join men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck as he unpacks the power of the parable - the "keys" to discovering the secrets of the Kingdom.
- 109Behind the Door Part 1 with Kenny Luck – Audio OnlyA key and a door. Keys unlock doors. If you are given the right key you get to enter into and experience whatever is behind the door. Imagine checking into a great hotel and not being given the keys that open the door to your personal room! You can't. So when Jesus says to his men "I have given you the keys to the Kingdom" it is an invitation to engage and experience a realm full of power and purpose previously unavailable to us. It is not just any space - it is a supernatural and life changing space - The Kingdom. More importantly, Jesus expects the "key receivers" to start opening doors and experiencing all that is BEHIND THE DOOR. Right now, in the midst of the digital war for our time and attention, a campaign of distraction is limiting millions of God's men from seeing and experiencing the insights, adventures, and experiences that lay behind the Kingdom doors God presents to us every day. We blow by them or miss them altogether at our own loss and our own peril. In the process we are missing out on the great super adventure and super humanity to which we belong called the Kingdom Of God. Join men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck for the exciting new 5 part series that will take you BEHIND THE DOOR and into God's Kingdom which is surrounding your life right now.
- 110“Be Good Trouble” Part 5 with Chris Harper – Audio OnlyWhen we hear the Parable of the Talents we typically think about money, skill, ability… What if I told you that before your wife was your wife, she was God's daughter. And God has given her to you to steward well. What happens when He comes back and wants to take a look at his investment? Will He see that your wife has become more like Christ because of you, or in spite of you? This week we're learning about stewarding our marriage well.
- 111“Be Good Trouble” Part 4 with Chris Harper – Audio OnlyDad, you’re a prophet. To be a prophet is to be God's mouthpiece. In your home, you are the primary mouthpiece of God. Like the prophets of old, your job is to speak on behalf of God. You bring God [His Word] to the people under your care. This week, we put on the mantle of prophet and we speak on behalf of God!
- 112“Be Good Trouble” Part 3 with Chris Harper – Audio Only"So much of what is wrong in the world today is due to men who are confused. Two generations ago, men were confident in their masculinity and manhood. One generation ago, men began to compromise their masculinity and manhood. Today, men are confused about their masculinity and manhood. They have no path. We live in a time when no common definition or vision for manhood exists. Because of such, we see 5 types of men emerging… Four types of men take life, one type gives life. We want to be life-giving men.
- 113“Be Good Trouble” Part 2 with Chris Harper – Audio OnlyWhat does it mean to be GOOD trouble? Before we can become GOOD trouble in any environment. We must ask ourselves and honestly answer; “What’s missing?” “What’s broken that I can fix?” “What’s evil that I can destroy?” “What’s good that I can persevere?” The person that possesses the greatest threat in your environment, in the spaces you occupy is YOU. Inside of every man is a warrior, a champion. But we must not only let him out, but also train him. What separates a man from being trouble and being GOOD trouble, is how he is equipped. In session 2 of “Be Good Trouble” Pastor Chris Harper discusses what it means to be GOOD trouble. And how these four questions can lead us to a pathway to develop an ethos of courage, to be God’s man.
- 114“Be Good Trouble” Part 1 with Chris Harper – Audio OnlyWe are living in a time when the leading feminist thought says the world needs a man like a fish need a bicycle…” At best our culture tells you you’re useless... more than not, it says you're a problem. My fear is that we believe the lie.
- 115RECEIVE Part 5 with Jeff Kemp – Audio OnlyYou and I, our peers, and our kids, have been marinated in a fully saturated consumer culture. How has that consumer culture impacted you? There’s a radical paradigm shift that God offers us that will dramatically change our relationships and lives. It’s based in God’s agape love and lifts others by investing in rather than consuming from others. Let’s ask ourselves if we can define and deliver love?“ Tip, love’s opposite is selfishness and love pays a price to do what’s best for another person. Jesus is the model and the power source for being the relationship investor God made us to be. His love needs to be received to be delivered and it includes counter-cultural concepts like choosing exclusivity and sacrificial serving. God’s paradigm creates marriage hope for the single and scared, and for the married and scarred. The same paradigm will revolutionize our fathering. To thrive as men we’re going to need Jesus’ way to beat life’s blitzes, like the secrecy and lying that detonate bombs when we get sex outside of God’s celebrated design. In the end, our best life as a man comes signing over the title deed so that we are owned and controlled by the best owner, our loving Heavenly Father.
- 116RECEIVE Part 4 with Jeff Kemp – Audio OnlyAren’t you glad social distancing and masking up has ended? But do you still feel a bit lonely, like you’re missing the camaraderie and brotherhood of deep friendship? That’s common among most men. It’s true for leaders, who often feel deep loneliness and isolation, even if they mistakenly think they have hundreds of friends. What if you positively knew that something you really like was really really good for you? Would you get excited and intentional about choosing it? Deep friendship was the way of Jesus. He was intentional, consistent and authentic. He had three closest friends and changed the world through twelve of his friends. What can we learn from the way Jesus invested in his friendships? Friendship Jesus-style contrasts starkly with the watered-down friendship practiced by society. Let’s look at how we can form and enjoy deep friendship, Level 5 Friendship. Can you find the right guys? Can you get over the hurdles of trust, time and fear of looking bad? There’s clear hope and help as you start huddling consistently. Let’s look at the power of processing our lives in a huddle of friends and in huddling with Father God as we meet Him in His word.
- 117RECEIVE Part 3 with Jeff Kemp – Audio OnlyWe’ve all over-promised and under-delivered. We’ve all felt inspired and convicted. We wanted to change. We were ready to aim high. But then, we’ve all been smacked in the face by reality and fallen back to wistfully thinking, “Ya, God. But, how?” You may be better at blaming than forgiving. Your pride may prevent you from apologizing or asking for help. You may be playing a constant comparison game, dogged by insecurity wondering “what are they thinking about me?” Does your fear of looking like a failure cause you to fail to be honest? You wonder, “Will I ever be able to kill my fear, pretending and lying?” God doesn’t frown at you. He says, “Yes, I can set you free to be the real you I intended.” Are you ready to be God-confident, instead of flailing to be self-confident? Let’s look at how Jesus lived as a son. He gives us the way and the how of being a real and good man - authentic and beneficial to others. He received as a son and transformed as a man. He’ll give us the way to live a life of being transformed and transforming relationships and situations for good.
- 118RECEIVE Part 2 with Jeff Kemp – Audio OnlyMost of us have some father deficit or wound. None of us were perfectly fathered. Have you had doubts and false quests arise in your life? Do you get wound up trying to perform, to do well and control your life? Is there a better way? Envision having secure confidence knowing who you are and the very essence of what kind of man you want to be. Our Father God gave us both of these in His Son Jesus. Once you clear up your view of God, you can clarify your view of yourself and enjoy the healing freedom of being re-Fathered by God. Let’s look at the essence of a man and his traits in Jesus, the ultimate man. Good news! Jesus shows us the way to do what we cannot do. Let’s discover God’s intended minute-to-minute way to live - sonship. Jesus lived it and made it available to us - continually depending, connecting and receiving from the Father as well-loved sons.
- 119RECEIVE Part 1 with Jeff Kemp – Audio OnlyYou can’t achieve your manhood. Sorry, but that’s great news. Especially if you experience confusion and frustration like most guys. We’re told we have to earn our manhood. Society has dozens of misguided suggestions, from sexual conquest to a big bank account to six-pack abs. Even in churches, men seek self-assurance through spiritual performance. But all these efforts fail because we’re trying to win the approval of our peers, wives, fathers, kids or even God Himself. It frustrates and wears us out – leaving us isolated, burnt out, and confused. Would you like to feel secure as a man without competing or pretending? Jesus has a better way. It’s receiving, not achieving. Abba Father invites us to receive our way to live just as we receive His solution in Jesus Christ. Let’s explore the journey of manhood in the way of Jesus - receiving your identity as God’s son and following Jesus’ perfectly dependent way of being a man. Let’s experience how receiving transforms everything in your life – from finding your purpose to rediscovering deep friendship – and defines what it means to be a real, good man.
- 120That Guy with Egypt McKee Part 5 – Audio OnlyLife is short and every moment is crucial. When faced with adversity, will you seize the opportunity to make the most of your life? It’s in the darkest hours that our desperate need for a Savior becomes crystal clear. While not everyone experiences a deathbed conversion or a miraculous awakening in their lowest moments, by the grace of God, we are given another opportunity to witness the profound essence of humility in leadership through an unlikely and unworthy antagonist. Join me as we unravel the remarkably brief encounter of “repentance and redemption” and discover the transformative power of God’s grace in the most unexpected moment.
