Ep. 7: Grace in the Grind with Clay and Bryan

Life isn’t always steady ground.

They discuss: * What adversity reveals about a man * How they process hardship instead of pretending it isn’t there * The difference between carrying burdens alone and surrendering them to Christ * How God’s grace shows up in the middle of the mess — not just after it Most importantly, they talk about how life is different — and better — under Christ’s leadership. Not easier….anchored. If you’re in a season that feels heavy, uncertain, or stretching you beyond your comfort, this episode is for you. Real men. Real struggles. Real grace. Stay sharp. Stand firm.

Bonus: Carried to Christ: The Power of Godly Friends with Brian Lindner

In this special bonus episode of Sheepdogs, Brian Lindner dives into a powerful moment in the Gospel of Mark that reminds us we were never meant to walk alone. From the story of friends who carried a man to Jesus—literally and spiritually—Brian unpacks what it means to surround yourself with Godly men who will challenge you, support you, and carry you when you can’t carry yourself. We all need people in our corner. The question is: who are you walking with—and who’s walking with you? This short episode is a reminder that real strength isn’t found in going it alone… it’s found in brotherhood rooted in Christ.

Ep. 6: Wounded Warriors with Jimmy Gant

Wounded Warriors is a raw, unfiltered conversation with Jimmy Gant about the scars men carry—both the ones everyone can see and the ones we work hard to hide. In this episode, we talk honestly about wounds that never fully healed, hidden sins that thrive in silence, and the lies men start believing about themselves, their worth, and their faith. Jimmy shares his story with humility and courage, opening the door for other men to confront their own broken places instead of burying them. This isn’t a polished testimony or a quick-fix conversation. It’s about acknowledging the damage, exposing the lies, and beginning the hard work of healing through truth, accountability, and Christ. If you’ve ever felt like a warrior who’s still standing but quietly bleeding, this episode is for you. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to fight wounded.

Ep. 5: Temptation is a Tap Away with Colin Bell

In a world where temptation is only a tap away, many men are losing battles they never planned to fight. In this episode of Sheepdogs, Clay and Bryan welcome their friend Colin Bell for his first appearance on the podcast. Colin shares a raw and honest testimony about his personal struggle with lust, online dating, and the quiet compromises that many men face in today’s digital culture. Together, the guys unpack how smartphones, porn, and dating apps have reshaped temptation, why isolation makes the fight harder, and what it actually looks like to pursue sexual purity in a world that constantly pulls in the opposite direction. This conversation isn’t about condemnation—it’s about clarity, accountability, and hope. If you’ve ever felt stuck, ashamed, or alone in this battle, this episode is a reminder that freedom is possible and worth fighting for. Because Sheepdogs don’t look away—they stand guard.
