| 6/15/26 | ![]() EP 106: Should the Church Be Talking About UFOs? with Nathan Zieber | Why are so many people suddenly talking about UFOs, UAPs, aliens, and the supernatural? And how should Christian men respond? In this fascinating conversation, Jordan is joined by pastor and former private investigator Nathan Zieber, who has spent more than a decade ministering to people wrestling with unexplained phenomena in our world. Together, they explore why the current wave of interest in UFOs and the supernatural presents both challenges and opportunities for the Church. Most importantly, this episode challenges the Church to engage spiritual seekers rather than avoid difficult conversations. As people in our time search for meaning, mystery, and transcendence, Christians have a unique opportunity to point them toward Jesus. Join us as we explore the fascinating intersection of faith, unexplained phenomena, and the supernatural, and how Christian men can engage with these matters thoughtfully and biblically.

| 6/1/26 | ![]() EP 105: When Faith Gets Dangerous with Chris Chase | Let's honestly try to answer a very hard question: What price are you actually willing to pay to follow Jesus? While we in the West generally don't need to grapple with that question to the fullest, we have brothers and sisters all over the world for whom that question is a life-or-death daily reality. In this powerful episode of the Impactus podcast, Chris sits down with Chris Chase of Open Doors Canada to confront what most Western men don't really want or need to face. Through the remarkable legacy of Brother Andrew—"God's Smuggler" who risked everything to deliver Bibles behind enemy lines during the Cold War—Chris and Chris delve into the ongoing story of a global Church under intense pressure, yet also, amazingly, thriving and alive. You'll hear firsthand insights into the lives of believers in places like North Korea, Nigeria, and Iran, where faith can mean imprisonment, violence, or death. Yet instead of fear, these fellow believers choose courage, joy, and unshakable conviction. Their example powerfully challenges our comfort-driven faith that is so common in North America, and invites men to reconsider what trusting and following Jesus really looks like. Don't miss it!

| 5/14/26 | ![]() EP 104: Facing the Future Like a Man with Dr. Joel Murphy | The future is coming for all of us. It can be scary to think about—but does it need to be? In this thought-provoking conversation, Dean talks with Dr. Joel Murphy of Acadia Divinity College, who invites us into the world of "futuring"—a disciplined, hope-filled way of discerning where culture is headed and how Christian men can respond with wisdom and intentionality. Rather than simply reacting to change, Joel challenges men to recognize emerging trends, imagine possible futures, and step into their God-given calling to help shape what's next. From the rise of AI and the "attention economy" to the growing influence of the online manosphere, Dean and Joel dive into some of the realities shaping modern masculinity. But grounded in a deep confidence in Christ, Dr. Murphy holds the tension between realism and hope—reminding us that while the world is shifting rapidly, God is not. The future is coming for all of us. The question is—what kind of men will face it?

| 5/1/26 | ![]() EP 103: Facing the Friendship Crisis with Steve McCready | It turns out one of the toughest things about being a man is not one of the most obvious things: How hard it can be to make and keep a friend. When we were boys, friendship often came easier—between school, church, sports, etc., there were just other guys around, and if you were to try and define "how" your best boyhood friendships developed, it would likely be challenging. They just kind of "happened." Fast-forward to adulthood, and those friendships don't seem to "just happen" in the same way anymore. In a time when our online lives often eclipse our in-person encounters, more and more men are finding it hard to meaningfully connect with other men socially. And yet every man knows that he needs brothers around him to journey through life with, to lean on and depend on, to be encouraged and challenged, and to grow. It is a massive problem in our culture, even within the Church—so what are men to do? Enter Steve McCready, a pastor, leader, and friend of Impactus, who was so fascinated by the issue of friendship and faith that he devoted an entire doctorate to researching and writing on it. Steve and Jordan jump into this important conversation, exploring why friendship is so crucial, why many men find friendship so challenging, what the Bible says about it, and some simple, practical steps a man can take to connect with others. This is a common problem with good, easy solutions—don't miss this episode!

| 11/15/25 | ![]() EP 92: The Relationship Rocket Formula with Todd Petkau | With all the challenges facing marriages in our current cultural moment, what can a man do to help his marriage thrive? In this episode of the Impactus Podcast, pastor and author Todd Petkau shares insights from The Relationship Rocket Formula, a new book he wrote with his wife. Blending humor, honesty, and hard-won wisdom, The Relationship Rocket Formula uses the metaphor of a rocket hurling through space to explore the complexities of marriage in a way that's both practical and refreshingly human. Dean and Todd discuss Todd's own marriage story—marked by faith, failure, laughter, and growth—and offer down-to-earth encouragement and hope to married men everywhere. Rather than offering quick fixes or lofty ideals, Todd treats marriage as what it truly is: a high-stakes, deeply meaningful, messy journey that calls for increased honesty and resilience for guys to embrace for the greater purpose of a healthy and holy marriage.

| 11/1/25 | ![]() EP 91: The Courage to Heal with Jerrad Lopes | What can men do when life feels heavy? When old issues repeat themselves, when stubborn sin clings, or when the darker side of our inner world is showing up in our outer living? In this episode, Jordan sits down with our friend Jerrad Lopes, author, speaker, and founder of DadTired.com, a non-profit ministry focused on equipping men to lead their families well. Jordan and Jerrad explore the crucial journey of healing for men, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability, authenticity, and community as we seek restoration through Christ. Jerrad shares his personal "rock bottom" moments as well as his experiences with counseling and its life-changing impact on his life as a husband and father. They discuss the significance of addressing childhood hurts, the challenges of being a dad, and the necessity of inner work for personal growth. This conversation will encourage men in their journey towards wholeness and strengthen them to embrace the challenging but rewarding journey of self-discovery and emotional health in Jesus.

| 10/15/25 | ![]() EP 90: Reflecting on 30 Years of Impactus with Kirk Giles & Dean Brenton | In the fall of 2025, we are celebrating 30 years of Impactus! In 1990, two men in a car on a Colorado highway had a conversation about how to help men lead biblical, fulfilled lives. This conversation soon turned into men's conferences throughout America, with millions of men being challenged to live with a Christ-centered view of manhood under the brand Promise Keepers. A group of Canadian men attended these events and desired to launch the same ministry in Canada. After a season of prayer, research, and planning, Promise Keepers Canada was founded in 1995 as PK's first international expansion. Eventually rebranded as Impactus, our Canadian ministry to men has been known for hosting major men's conferences nationwide. These events have allowed us the privilege of speaking to tens of thousands of men about being the men God has designed us to be. In more recent years, a significant emphasis has been added to creating godly content for men through daily devotionals, articles, and podcasts, as well as on equipping local men's ministry leaders. In this podcast, Chris sits down with former Impactus president Kirk Giles and current president Dean Brenton for a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation about what God is doing and has been doing in men's lives over the past thirty years!

| 10/1/25 | ![]() EP 89: How Do Dads Navigate Youth Sports? with Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski | Many dads love seeing their kids playing sports, and many men like to volunteer with a team, but it can also be challenging. While sports can be a healthy activity that helps kids thrive, it is also an environment that can challenge our Christian values and doesn't bring out the best in us as dads. Our own issues can easily rise to the surface, and we don't always give our kids our best. Former collegiate athletes and current sports ministry leaders Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski have addressed the highly competitive and often secular culture of youth sports. Drawing on over 50 years of combined ministry experience with Athletes in Action, they offer guidance on transforming youth sports into a meaningful platform for discipleship in their new book Away Game: A Christian Parent's Guide to Navigating Youth Sports. Dean, Brian, and Ed have a great conversation around a largely unexplored topic, talking about why sports are so important and helpful for youth, how to navigate this world while holding on to Christian values, how discipleship and great parenting moments can happen through sports, and how dads can lead well in this space without losing what's most important.

| 9/15/25 | ![]() EP 88: God's Surprising Move Among Young Men with Dean, Jordan & Chris | A recent article in Relevant magazine explored the idea that God seems to be doing something new among young men in our midst. So what is He up to? Where is He doing it? And what should pastors and men's ministry leaders know about how to lean in to what He's doing? In this episode of our newly formatted Impactus podcast, Dean, Jordan, and Chris sit down for a fascinating conversation about this phenomenon, celebrating what the Lord is doing, and discussing what it means for men, men's ministry, and the Church!

| 9/1/25 | ![]() Introducing the Next Season of the Impactus Podcast | On today's episode, Dean and Jordan share some exciting news. The Impactus Podcast is entering a new season, one that we believe will make an even greater impact on men's lives. Dean Brenton is joined by Jordan Harnum and Dr. Chris Walker as they come together to create a podcast that is practical, theologically grounded, and deeply relevant to the real questions men are asking today. We're also moving to a fresh new rhythm—releasing episodes twice a month, on the first and fifteenth. That means more consistent encouragement and more opportunities for men to grow in their walk with Christ. In this episode, Dean and Jordan give a behind-the-scenes look at what's changing, what's staying the same, and what listeners can expect as they step into this exciting next chapter.

| 8/1/25 | ![]() EP 86: When Money is a Tool, Not a Goal with Colin Kirby | Did you know nearly 1 in 3 Canadians are short of money each month? Or that if you're experiencing financial stress, you're twice as likely to report poor health; four times more likely to suffer from sleep issues, headaches, and other ailments, including heart disease, high blood pressure, depression, and anxiety; and you'll be more prone to relationship strain? If any of that resonates with you, gentlemen, you are not alone. Financial worries about job insecurity, tariffs, market fluctuations, and recession fears are common for most men. It's hard to avoid money-related anxiety while staying balanced and planning ahead. If this sounds familiar, this month's podcast will be a helpful conversation! Colin Kirby is a Financial Planner from Waterloo, ON, with over 25 years of experience and a strong belief that faith and finances can and should align. Join us for this stimulating conversation as Colin shares his story and teaches us some practical and biblical financial wisdom.

| 6/1/25 | ![]() EP 84: The Way and the Voice of Jesus with Jason Ballard | More information is being created and shared today than ever before, leading to a vast, ever-expanding ocean of information and data. We are bombarded and shaped by voices from social media influencers, YouTubers, and podcast hosts. And yes, you're listening to a podcast today, so you can add Impactus into the mix of voices! But how can we be wise and discerning enough to audit and edit the voices we let in? In Philippians 1:9-10, the apostle Paul said: "And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ." How can we gain that kind of knowledge and discernment so we can approve what is excellent vs. what is unhelpful or untruthful? How can we incorporate rhythms and space in our lives to be men who are rooted in Christ? This topic emerged at our conference in Edmonton and culminated in a powerful, divine moment as our speaker shared and prayed for the men in attendance. That speaker was none other than our podcast guest, Jason Ballard. Jason is a pastor at The Way Church in Vancouver, Canada. He also serves as the Executive Director of The Pastorate, formerly known as the Canadian Church Leaders Network (CCLN), and hosts The Pastorate podcast, where he engages in conversations that strengthen the hearts of pastors and share stories from the Church in Canada. In this meaningful conversation, we'll learn about Jason's powerful ministry, how to be deeply rooted in Christ, and how to listen to Christ as the ultimate Teacher and voice in our busy lives. https://impactus.org/ Check Our Resources for Men: https://impactus.org/resources/ ---------------------------------------------- Follow us on Social Media Facebook Instagram LinkedIn Twitter This Is Me TV Copyright © 2025 Impactus.

| 3/1/25 | ![]() EP 81: The Good News for Guys with Jason Persaud | Despite the rise of people identifying as "non-religious" in Canada and the growing trends of secularism in our post-Christian culture, there is good news on the horizon. Alpha Canada released a 2024 report that indicated signs of hope and opportunity. It revealed: Post-pandemic, church leaders in Canada are perceiving an inexplicable spiritual openness and curiosity in our communities. This "spiritual openness" includes lapsed Christians, or those with no faith, becoming more spiritually curious in the past three years, receptive to the message that Jesus saves, and displaying a "higher likelihood" that they would actually come to church. Church leaders across Canada are prioritizing sharing the Gospel with an increased clarity and commitment to the Great Commission. Our own annual Spiritual Health of Men survey, sent to several thousand men connected with our ministry, consistently shows that sharing their faith is an ongoing challenge for men, but also an amazing opportunity for the church to lean in, and where men and men's ministries can play an important part. In this month's podcast, we will talk about these important matters! Join us as we chat with Jason Persaud, the National Director of Church Experience for Alpha Canada. Jason and Dean discuss the ongoing challenges of evangelism for men and the great reason for hope in these exciting days as God opens doors for the Gospel to be shared in our communities!

| 2/1/25 | ![]() EP 80: Finding Peace in an Anxious World with Jonny Ardavinas | Former England superstar football captain David Beckham recalls being sent off the field in the 1998 World Cup Finals: "It was probably the longest walk in my life…looking back, I'm not sure what thoughts were going through my mind: it was a swirl of fear, guilt, anger, worry, and confusion. "My head was spinning…I walked into the dressing room. The rules stated that I had to stay in there for the remainder of the match. England lost. We were out of the World Cup. "When the England players came back into the dressing room, no one breathed a word to me. There was almost complete silence. I could feel my stomach tightening even more. I gulped, breathed in, and gulped again. I was in a packed changing room, but I had never felt so lonely in my life. I was isolated and afraid...I was trapped in my own sense of guilt and anxiety." Men often think we are wired to be tough, strong, "just deal with it" guys, but the reality is that many of us struggle with deep concerns, fears, and anxieties. We often suffer alone, isolated and lonely. But we don't have to deal with this on our own. Today, we'll examine the starting point for handling anxiety. Our guest today is Jonny Ardavanis. He is the lead pastor of Stonebridge Bible Church and the founder and president of Dial In Ministries, a ministry that provides biblical resourcing for the next generation. He is passionate about people coming to know and love Jesus Christ as they pursue a deeper understanding of His Word. Jonny lives in Franklin, TN, with his wife and two daughters. Jonny has recently written a book called Consider the Lillies: Finding Perfect Peace in the Character of God. This is no gardening book; rather, it points us to an antidote to fear and anxiety in the unshakable and timeless character of God. He shares from his personal struggles with anxiety, explores how guys navigate anxiety and fear, references the many men in Scripture who grapple with these same things, and most importantly, why knowing God's character as Lord and Father is so important to helping us navigate anxiety, worry, and fear. Join us for an amazing conversation! ---------------------------------------------- Website: https://impactus.org/ ---------------------------------------------- Follow us on Social Media Facebook Instagram LinkedIn Twitter This Is Me TV | — | ||||||
