When God Says "Yes" Differently Than We Expected | Leon T. Stepherson III

When God Says "Yes" Differently Than We Expected What do you do when you've been faithfully praying... and God's answer looks nothing like the one you were hoping for? In this powerful episode of God's Glory In Men's Real Stories, Robert Moore sits down with Leon T. Stepherson III for an honest conversation about faith, suffering, surrender, and discovering that God's greatest answers don't always arrive in the packages we expect. After praying that his diagnosis wouldn't be cancer, Leon received the answer no one wants to hear. But instead of allowing fear to define his journey, he began discovering something far greater. God hadn't abandoned him. He was inviting him into a deeper trust. Throughout this conversation, Leon shares how God met him through community, Radical Mentorship, family, prayer, and even unexpected moments that reminded him God was still writing a much bigger story than the diagnosis in front of him. One of the most memorable ideas from this conversation is Leon's perspective of making God the Big G and cancer the little c. Rather than allowing cancer to become the defining reality of his life, Leon chose to make God's faithfulness, character, and promises bigger than every fear, diagnosis, uncertainty, and unanswered question. Together, Robert and Leon discuss: • Following Jesus versus simply believing in Him • Why God's answers don't always look like our expectations • Receiving a cancer diagnosis • Living with faith instead of fear • Radical Mentorship and authentic brotherhood • The importance of community during suffering • Finding peace in uncertainty • Choosing joy before knowing the outcome • Why perspective changes everything • Trusting God's character instead of circumstances Whether you're walking through illness, waiting on an answer to prayer, struggling with disappointment, or simply wondering why life hasn't unfolded the way you expected, this episode offers a reminder that God's greatest work isn't always changing our circumstances. Sometimes... His greatest work is changing us. Leon reminds us that while we often pray for God to remove the storm, God frequently chooses to walk with us through it. If you're carrying something heavy today, we pray this conversation reminds you that you're not alone, your story isn't over, and God's faithfulness is bigger than anything you're facing.

Why Men Can't Forgive Themselves: Regret, Shame & Finding Freedom in Christ

What happens when you know God has forgiven you... but you still can't forgive yourself? In this deeply personal solo episode of God's Glory In Men's Real Stories, Robert Moore opens up about one of the most difficult battles many men quietly carry—the battle against shame, regret, and believing that our worst decisions define who we are. For years, Robert wrestled with pornography, addiction, alcoholism, infidelity, depression, and suicidal thoughts. While he eventually came to believe that God had forgiven him, he discovered something many Christians rarely talk about: Sometimes the hardest person to forgive is yourself. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 7:10, Robert explores the difference between worldly sorrow that leads to death and godly sorrow that leads to repentance, healing, and freedom. He shares how shame kept him trapped, why hiding only strengthened the lies he believed about himself, and how Jesus met him in the middle of his brokenness—not after he had everything figured out. This conversation isn't about pretending the past didn't happen. It's about learning that your failures are not your identity. Whether you've struggled with addiction, pornography, infidelity, depression, anxiety, shame, church hurt, or simply feeling like you'll never be enough, this episode offers hope for anyone who feels trapped by their past. Throughout this conversation, Robert discusses: * Why so many men struggle to forgive themselves * The difference between guilt, shame, and conviction * What 2 Corinthians 7:10 teaches about repentance * How shame silently shapes our identity * Breaking free from self-condemnation * Why God's grace is greater than our greatest failures * Finding true identity in Christ instead of performance * Why healing begins with honesty If you've ever believed you're beyond redemption... If you've ever wondered whether God could still use someone like you... Or if you've been carrying regret for years... This episode is a reminder that your story is not over. God doesn't meet us after we've cleaned ourselves up. He meets us right where we are—and invites us into freedom.

From a Jail Cell to Championship Coach: Kevon Fly's Story

In this powerful episode of God's Glory In Men's Real Stories, Robert Moore sits down with championship basketball coach, mentor, and speaker Kevon Fly to unpack a story that proves your lowest moment doesn't have to define your future. Long before coaching championship teams, pouring into young men, and leading others with purpose, Kevon found himself sitting alone in a jail cell wondering how life had gotten to that point. What felt like the end of his story became the very place where God began preparing him for everything that would come next. Together, Robert and Kevon have an honest conversation about identity, shame, pride, forgiveness, fatherhood, purpose, and the life-changing power of God's grace. Kevon shares how hidden struggles, financial hardship, brokenness, and the pressure to appear "okay" nearly kept him from becoming the man God created him to be. One of the most powerful moments of the conversation comes when Kevon reminds us that so many men are silently carrying burdens they were never meant to carry alone. Whether it's fear, failure, addiction, financial pressure, loneliness, or regret, healing begins the moment we stop pretending and start telling the truth. Throughout this episode you'll hear conversations about: • Life before coaching • Sitting in a jail cell and facing the consequences of poor decisions • How God uses broken seasons to prepare us • The importance of mentorship and accountability • Learning to become the man you needed growing up • Fatherhood and leading the next generation • Financial struggles, pride, and asking for help • Why vulnerability is strength—not weakness • Finding purpose through pain • God's faithfulness in every season Kevon's story is a reminder that God doesn't waste pain. The very places that seem like setbacks can become the foundation for the calling He has on your life. If you've ever wondered whether your mistakes have disqualified you... If you've ever felt ashamed of your past... If you've ever struggled silently while everyone around you assumed you were fine... This conversation is for you. No matter where you've been or what you've done, your story isn't over. God's grace is greater than your past, and He still has a purpose for your life.
