Obedience, Faith and Discernment
In this raw and transparent prelude to the The Jacob In Us series, we open the door to a conversation many men avoid — hidden struggles, addiction, shame, and the battle between who we are and who God is calling us to become. Using the story of The Holy Bible’s Jacob as the foundation, this episode explores the reality that transformation often begins with confession. I openly discuss my personal struggle with smoking and drinking, how those habits began affecting my physical health through early stages of gout, and the reality that even socially accepted habits like cigars and alcohol can slowly damage the body — especially the legs, joints, and overall health. But this episode is bigger than addiction. It is about honesty. Too many men believe they must appear strong, perfect, and emotionally untouchable while secretly fighting battles that are draining them spiritually, mentally, and physically. This episode creates a safe place for men to admit they are still wrestling with parts of themselves without believing they are disqualified from growth, leadership, or God’s purpose. Jacob wrestled before he transformed. Many of us are doing the same. This prelude sets the tone for the 5-part The Jacob In Us series — a journey into identity, struggle, surrender, and transformation.
