About this episode
What if strength isn’t what you think it is? In Week 4 of Stand Firm and Act Like Men, Pastor Joby Martin shows how Jesus redefines what it means to be strong. Strength isn’t measured by status, control, or success—it’s revealed in surrender. A strong man is one who rests in Jesus, perseveres through pain, walks humbly
under God’s authority, and uses his strength to serve others. When we stop striving for worldly greatness and start depending on Christ, we discover that real strength isn’t about power—it’s about purpose. When you are weak, He is strong. So what would it look like for you to become that kind of man? 📣 Episode Mentions: • Scripture Passage: 1 Corinthians 16:13-14, Matthew 20:17-28 • Preacher: Pastor Joby Martin 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week: • Strength That Serves - Rick’s Story • Be Strong - Stand Firm & Act Like Men: Wk 4 (Full Sermon) • Strength Redefined - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin S24E4 • Stand Firm and Act Like Men Sermon Series Series • Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin About The Church of Eleven22 The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
