60: "Creating Jobs" Might Be Breaking the Constitution

Congress wants to save the Sequoias and create jobs… but do they actually have the authority to do it? In this episode, we break down two major bills and ask the bigger question: Is government staying within its constitutional limits? We cover: The Save Our Sequoias Act 🌲 The Made in America Jobs Act 🏭 What the Constitution actually allows Why this matters for your liberty and rights Good intentions don’t justify unlimited power.

59: Congress Keeps Missing the REAL Problem

Congress is proposing a balanced budget amendment, moving to recognize homeschool graduates, and even updating a transportation advisory committee… But are these efforts actually addressing the real problem—or making it worse? In this episode of The Free Man’s Podcast, we break down three key pieces of legislation and ask the deeper question: Are we solving issues the right way—or just expanding federal power? The Bigger Issue The question isn’t just: Are these policies good or bad? The real question is: Does the federal government have the authority to do this at all? Because when government operates outside its constitutional limits, even good intentions can lead to: Expansion of unchecked power Erosion of liberty A breakdown of the rule of law #congress  #constitution   #RuleOfLaw #governmentoverreach

58: Are You REALLY Jesus' Disciple?

What does it actually mean to be a disciple of Jesus Christ? Is it just believing the right things… or is it something much than an intellectual assent? In this episode of The Free Man’s Podcast, we break down what true discipleship really is—and how a lot of people might be misunderstanding it. Jesus calls people to follow Him, abide in Him, and go with Him. We cover 3 essential marks of a disciple: 1️⃣ Following Jesus Believing/trusting Him, and then by His Spirit and grace, we can deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Jesus in every area of life. 2️⃣ Abiding in Christ Living in communion and fellowship with Christ will bring about fruit to God's glory and the good of those around us. 3️⃣ Going and Making Disciples Stepping into mission—sharing the gospel, making disciples, and walking in the good works God prepared for each of us to do. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about being transformed as we live and walk with Jesus. 👉 A disciple doesn’t just know about Jesus… He walks with Him, becomes like Him, and lives on mission with Him. So the question is: Are you truly following Jesus?
