Walking on Water Faith: Trusting God Beyond What Makes Sense

It will be a place where a multitude of topics are discussed that deal with real topics and real issues leading to real healing! Faith is easy when life feels stable. It’s easy to trust God when the waters are calm and the outcome feels predictable. But what happens when God calls you to step into uncertainty? What happens when obedience requires courage and when the next step doesn’t fully make sense?  In this episode, we talk about what it means to have “walking on water” type faith — the kind of faith Peter demonstrated when he stepped out of the boat and trusted Jesus in the middle of a storm.

Be Still and Let God Work!

A Better Man Podcast is a bi-weekly conversation dedicated to the uplifting and building of strong men. It will be a place where a multitude of topics are discussed that deal with real topics and real issues leading to real healing! This episode challenges the idea that strength is found in constant motion. Instead, it reframes strength as the ability to trust God enough to slow down, release control, and be still. Stillness is not weakness. It is not laziness. It is not falling behind. Stillness is faith in action. When we learn to be still, we begin to realize: * God is still in control * God is still working * God is still faithful Key Scripture References * Psalms 46:10 * Proverbs 3:5-6 Challenge of The Week: * Spend 5–10 minutes each day in quiet prayer * Reduce distractions during your quiet time with God Mental Health Resources:  * Zocdoc.com * Betterhelp.com If you missed the last episode you can find it here: Apple Podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-better-man-podcast/id1771554185] Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/7obzbYixAmYWacXWwCI4DN?si=e1a3ac9ed8fd45d4] Follow us on: Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/abettermanpodcast/]  Email: michaelj@abettermanpodcast.net [michaelj@abettermanpodcast.net]

It will be a place where a multitude of topics are discussed that deal with real topics and real issues leading to real healing! Abandonment cuts deep. Whether it comes from a parent, a relationship, a friendship, or even a moment when you felt left behind… the wound is real. It can leave you questioning your worth, your identity, and even your trust in others. In this episode, we confront the wound of abandonment head-on and uncover a powerful truth: People may leave… Situations may change… But God remains constant. This conversation is about healing, restoration, and understanding that your value is not defined by who walked away — but by the God who has always stayed. Remember, no matter who left… you were never abandoned by Him!

Water Someone Else’s Grass: Kingdom Men Build Others

A Better Man Podcast is a bi-weekly conversation dedicated to the uplifting and building of strong men. It will be a place where a multitude of topics are discussed that deal with real topics and real issues leading to real healing! In a world that often pushes competition, comparison, and self-promotion, Kingdom men are called to live differently. Instead of guarding our “territory,” we’re called to build, encourage, strengthen, and invest in others. When we choose to water someone else’s grass, we demonstrate humility, brotherhood, and obedience to God’s design for community. Strong men don’t isolate, we build others up. Challenge: Go out of your way to intentionally water someone else’s grass over the next couple of months.  References/Other Mentions:  Galatians 6:2 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Proverbs 11:25  Mental Health Resources:  * Zocdoc.com * Betterhelp.com If you missed the last episode you can find it here: Apple Podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-better-man-podcast/id1771554185] Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/7obzbYixAmYWacXWwCI4DN?si=e1a3ac9ed8fd45d4] Follow us on: Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/abettermanpodcast/]  Email: michaelj@abettermanpodcast.net [michaelj@abettermanpodcast.net]
