Ep. 135 - Emotional Courage – The Way Through

Ep. 139 - What Kind of Soil Are You Right Now?

In today’s episode of I Know a Guy, we look at the parable of the soils from Gospel of Matthew 13—and ask an honest question: What’s really going on in your heart right now? Because these aren’t just four types of people… they’re four conditions of the heart—and we drift between them more than we think. As we prepare to step into Fatherhood, this episode will help you examine what’s growing beneath the surface—and why it matters.

Ep. 138 - This is Your Moment!

In today’s episode of I Know a Guy, we bring everything together—from emotional courage to healing—and ask the question: What are you going to do with it? Because awareness without action doesn’t change anything. And the step you take right now won’t just affect you—it will shape your relationships, your future, and your legacy. This is a moment to stop circling the same patterns and take one real step forward.

Ep. 137 - How Bad Do You Want It?

In today’s episode of I Know a Guy, we move beyond awareness and ask a harder question: How bad do you actually want healing? Because wanting it… and pursuing it… are not the same thing. We’ll look at how Jesus invited people into healing—not passively, but through movement, courage, and action—and what that means for you right now. If you’ve been stuck in the same patterns and wondering why nothing’s changing… this episode will challenge you to take your next step.

Ep. 136 - Do You Want to Be Healed?

In today’s episode of I Know a Guy, we step into a powerful moment from Gospel of John 5—where Jesus asks a man who’s been stuck for 38 years a question that feels almost unnecessary: “Do you want to get well?” But instead of saying yes… the man gives reasons, excuses, and comparisons. And if we’re honest… we do the same. This episode is an invitation to look beneath the surface and ask a deeper question: Do you actually want healing—or have you learned to live without it?

Ep. 135 - Emotional Courage – The Way Through

What if the reason you keep going back to the same struggle isn’t a lack of discipline—but a lack of emotional courage? You can’t heal what you won’t face. In this episode of I Know a Guy, we talk about what emotional courage actually looks like for a man—how it begins with honesty, moves into the light, and leads toward real healing. If you’ve been stuck in cycles you can’t seem to break, this conversation will challenge you to take one simple, but powerful step toward freedom.
