Ep. 16 | (5-6): "How Close Can We Get Without Dying?" Man Maker Project

We sincerely apologize for the delay in this episode due to some unexpected technical issues, but we’re grateful to finally be back behind the mic. In this episode of the Men of God Podcast, we dive into chapters 5–6 of The Man Maker Project by Chris Bruno as we explore the powerful and thought-provoking subject of near death experiences. These chapters push us into deeper conversations about eternity, purpose, suffering, and what happens when people come face-to-face with death itself. We unpack how these experiences impact faith, identity, and the way men respond to God’s calling on their lives. As the journey through The Man Maker Project continues, we reflect on how moments that bring us closest to death can also awaken us to truly living. In this episode, we: • Deconstruct Chapters 5–6: Break down the major themes surrounding mortality, eternity, and spiritual awakening. • Discuss Near Death Experiences: Explore real accounts and what they reveal about fear, faith, and transformation. Whether you’re reading along with us or listening during your day, join us for a deeper conversation about life, death, and what lies beyond.

Ep. 13 | Salvation IS NOT a Prayer!🙏: The Skeletons in God's Closet FINALE

In this episode of Men of God Podcast, we wrap up our conversation around The Skeletons in God’s Closet by Joshua Ryan Butler. After walking through the book together over multiple episodes, we take time to reflect on our overall thoughts, what challenged us most, what resonated deeply, and the questions we’re still carrying with us. This isn’t a tidy conclusion — it’s an honest one. We talk about where the book shifted our understanding of God, judgment, heaven, and hell, and where tension or uncertainty still remains. Faith doesn’t always end with clean answers, and we’re okay sitting in that space together. We also kick off a new journey by introducing our next read: The Man Maker Project by Chris Bruno. We share why we chose this book, what we’re hoping it will speak into, and how it connects to our ongoing pursuit of biblical manhood and discipleship. In this episode we: • Share final reflections and lingering questions from The Skeletons in God’s Closet • Discuss how the book reshaped (or challenged) our view of God • Talk openly about unresolved tensions in theology and faith • Introduce The Man Maker Project and why it’s our next step • Set the stage for the conversations ahead We’re just two men chasing God, asking real questions, and learning as we go — no preaching, no posturing, just honest conversation.
