| 6/12/26 | ![]() #378 - John Eldredge // The Masculine Journey: Stages of Our Spiritual Development | The most dangerous story in your life might be the one you keep telling yourself. John Eldredge steps in for Kyle and Joby to sharpen the Daily Blade with a clear challenge for Christian men: stop clinging to the story you want to be true, and learn to live in the story that is true, with God’s help. We look back at Saul’s conversion, Ananias’s quiet obedience, the Genesis vision of bringing order out of chaos, and David’s lesson in not leaning on old tools or familiar methods. Each story po... | 6m 21s | ||||||
| 6/11/26 | ![]() #377- John Eldredge // The Masculine Journey: Relying on the Voice of God | Same enemy. Same valley. Different instructions. That’s the tension we sit in with John Eldridge as he unpacks David’s two battles with the Philistines from 2 Samuel 5 and shows why yesterday’s win is not always today’s plan. If you’ve ever tried to lead your family, fix a problem at work, or make a big decision by repeating what “worked last time,” this conversation will hit close to home. We talk about the partnership mentality David models when he keeps inquiring of the Lord, even after a... | 6m 17s | ||||||
| 6/10/26 | ![]() #376 - John Eldredge // The Masculine Journey: An Invitation to Partnership | Chaos is everywhere right now and it is easy to feel like the faithful response is to hunker down, complain louder, or just hope God fixes it all. We take a different path by going back to the opening pages of Scripture, where God brings order out of chaos and then turns to humanity with an invitation that still shapes our lives today. John Eldridge walks through Genesis 1 and 2 and connects it to the daily pressure men feel in their homes, work, churches, and communities. Being made i... | 5m 57s | ||||||
| 6/9/26 | ![]() #375 - John Eldredge // The Masculine Journey: Bring Your Whole Life to God | Saul can’t see, can’t eat, and can’t even walk into Damascus on his own, and that’s exactly where God chooses to rebuild him. John Eldridge sits in and takes us back to Acts 9, not just to highlight Saul’s conversion, but to spotlight Ananias, the kind of man most of us would overlook. He’s not famous, not powerful, not “inner circle,” and yet God calls him by name and sends him straight into a situation that feels unsafe. We slow down and notice the part that sounds almost too human to be h... | 6m 18s | ||||||
| 6/8/26 | ![]() #374 - John Eldredge // The Masculine Journey: The Story That is True | Saul is convinced he’s the hero of God’s story, right up until a flash of light knocks him to the ground and a voice asks a haunting question: “Why do you persecute me?” We walk through Acts 9 and the conversion of Saul of Tarsus, not as distant Bible history, but as a lived pattern of how Jesus confronts, rescues, and rebuilds a man from the inside out. John Eldredge sits in and points out a detail that’s easy to miss: Jesus doesn’t lead with a title, he leads with his name. “My name is Jes... | 6m 05s | ||||||
| 6/5/26 | ![]() #373 - Joby Martin // Fulfill Your Ministry | The fastest way to burn out is trying to live someone else’s calling. We close out this set of leadership lessons with a challenge that cuts through noise and ego: fulfill your ministry. If you’re a Christian man wondering whether you “really” have a ministry, we make it plain. In Christ, you’re in ministry, and our job as pastors is to equip you for the work God already intends for you to do. We walk through 1 Samuel 17 and watch David step onto the scene while everyone else is frozen... | 6m 23s | ||||||
| 6/4/26 | ![]() #372 - Joby Martin // Faithful Right Now | Chasing the next job, the next role, the next “break” can feel like motivation, but it can also become a trap. We dig into a simple leadership lesson that keeps showing up in real life: be faithful with what God has entrusted to you today instead of living for the myth of “there.” If you’ve ever thought, “Once I get to that next season, then I’ll take discipleship seriously,” this conversation is meant to stop you in your tracks and reset your focus. We share the story of starting small in m... | 6m 11s | ||||||
| 6/3/26 | ![]() #371 - Joby Martin // Trust Jesus With The Outcome | Your next big decision might not need more research, more opinions, or another round of “what if” scenarios. It might need one clear filter from John 2:5: “Do whatever he tells you to do.” We take that single verse and apply it to real leadership pressure where the stakes are high and the outcome is not guaranteed. We walk through the wedding at Cana and pay attention to the part we usually skip: the servants’ steps. Fill the jars. Draw the water. Carry it to the master. None of it mak... | 6m 40s | ||||||
| 6/2/26 | ![]() #370 - Joby Martin // Choose Faith Over Fear | Fear can feel like wisdom when you’re staring down an uncertain future, a hard conversation, or a leadership role that feels bigger than you. We go straight at that tension with a practical Christian leadership lesson: choose faith over fear. The difference comes down to one question we keep returning to: when you look ahead, who do you believe is in control, you, your circumstances, or God? We dig into 2 Timothy 1:7 and talk about why fear is more than a passing emotion. We also draw an imp... | 6m 47s | ||||||
| 6/1/26 | ![]() #369 - Joby Martin // Direction Over Vision | Most leaders love vision because it feels inspiring. But what happens when you hit the goal, the season changes, or your “preferred future” turns out to be too small? We talk about a leadership idea that cuts through the hype: direction is more important than vision, and the path you choose today shapes where you end up tomorrow. We pull that thread through Proverbs 3:5–6, where Scripture uses unmistakable directional language about trusting God, refusing to lean on your own understand... | 6m 51s | ||||||

| 5/29/26 | ![]() #368 - Kyle Thompson // Dot dot dot. Dash dash dash. Dot dot dot. | A Navy pilot sits in front of an enemy camera, bruised, exhausted, and forced into a propaganda film. Instead of playing along, he stares straight into the lens and blinks a message in Morse code: “SOS” and “TORTURE.” That’s James Stockdale, and his decision under pressure opens a sobering conversation about resilience, truth, and what happens when your circumstances refuse to change. We walk through why Stockdale survived seven and a half years in the Hanoi Hilton by “controlling the contro... | 7m 04s | ||||||
| 5/28/26 | ![]() #367 - Kyle Thompson // If You Can't Walk, Crawl | A grizzly bear, a shredded back, a broken leg, and two men who steal the little he has left. Hugh Glass should have died in the Dakota wilderness in 1823, but he doesn’t. He crawls. For six weeks. Nearly 200 miles. That story isn’t here to hype up “grit” or pretend pain is easy. We use it to ask a harder question: what actually keeps a man moving forward when his life feels like hostile ground? From there, we step into Joshua’s moment of pressure. Moses is gone, Joshua is staring at the Jord... | 7m 23s | ||||||
| 5/27/26 | ![]() #366 - Kyle Thompson // Between a Rock and a Hard Place | One wrong step can turn a normal morning into a fight to survive. We start with the true-to-life, gut-level story of Aaron Rawson, alone in a slot canyon in southeastern Utah when an 800-pound boulder pins his arm and leaves him with no plan, little water, and no one expecting him home. It is intense for a reason: many of us know what it feels like when the world drops out from under us in a single moment, whether it is a diagnosis, betrayal, or a crisis that shows up uninvited. From t... | 6m 36s | ||||||
| 5/26/26 | ![]() #365 - Kyle Thompson // Captured by the Enemy in Shark-Infested Waters | Sharks in the water, no drinking water in the raft, and no land for a thousand miles. We start with the true story of Louis Zamparini, shot down in World War II, drifting for weeks in the Pacific, then captured and brutalized in Japanese prison camps. It’s the kind of resilience story that forces you to ask what a human being is made of when everything gets stripped away. But the most surprising part is what happens after he makes it home. The war follows him into the night through terrors, ... | 7m 17s | ||||||
| 5/25/26 | ![]() #364 - Kyle Thompson // The Ice Should Have Claimed Them | A ruptured tendon can do more than wreck your training plan. It can expose the parts of you that only feel steady when life is easy. We start from that raw place and talk honestly about resilience when recovery is slow, pain is loud, and the future feels like a long, frustrating process instead of a quick fix. Then we drop into one of the clearest case studies in grit and leadership you’ll ever hear: Ernest Shackleton and the Endurance expedition. Trapped in Antarctic pack ice, forced to aba... | 7m 33s | ||||||

| 5/21/26 | ![]() #362 - Joby Martin // Real Prosperity Starts When You Abide In Christ | Prosperity is a loaded word, and Psalm 1 doesn’t let us keep shallow definitions. We slow down on the image of a man who becomes like a tree planted by streams of water, steady through heat, fruitful in season, and unwithered over time. That picture raises a hard, honest question: are we actually rooted in what can sustain us, or are we chasing quick growth with no depth? We connect Psalm 1 to Jesus’ invitation in John 15 to abide in Him. Using vivid garden language, we talk about the real w... | 6m 28s | ||||||
| 5/20/26 | ![]() #361 - Joby Martin // Delight In The Word | Psalm 1 doesn’t just call us to avoid bad influences, it calls us to build a life that’s actually rooted. We dig into the sharp contrast between the man who is blessed and the life that turns into chaff, and we slow down on the word that changes everything: “but.” It’s not enough to stop walking in the counsel of the wicked if we never replace that space with something stronger. The turning point is delight in the law of the Lord and meditation day and night. We get practical and perso... | 6m 09s | ||||||
| 5/19/26 | ![]() #360 - Joby Martin // Cutting Out Bad Influence | The scariest kind of drift is the kind you get used to. Psalm 1 doesn’t just warn us about “bad people” it exposes a pattern: we start by walking near harmful influence, then we stand in it long enough to adopt it, and eventually we sit down and get comfortable in a culture that scoffs at God. If your faith feels stale or your relationship with the Lord feels stagnant, this is a serious place to look, because we’re all being discipled by something. We read Psalm 1 out loud and dig into... | 5m 55s | ||||||

| 5/15/26 | ![]() #358 - Jay Risner // When Being The Good Kid Makes You Miserable | A party is happening, the lost son is home, and one person refuses to come inside. We dig into the older brother’s anger in Luke 15 and uncover a form of spiritual danger that looks “good” on the outside but is hollow on the inside: resentment. When faith turns into scorekeeping, service starts to feel like slavery, obedience becomes leverage, and joy dries up fast. We read the closing verses of the parable and pull out three traits that expose the older brother’s heart: resentment toward hi... | 6m 59s | ||||||
| 5/14/26 | ![]() #357 - Jay Risner // The Prodigal Son Explained | A son blows up his family, burns through his future, and ends up feeding pigs and that’s only the opening scene. Jay Reisner (lead pastor at Faith Bible Church) fills in on The Daily Blade and takes us line by line through Luke 15:11–32 to show how Jesus crafts the parable of the prodigal son to hit both the obvious sinner and the respectable critic. If you’ve ever wondered why this story still feels so personal, it’s because every detail is designed to expose shame and point to a Father who ... | 6m 13s | ||||||
| 5/13/26 | ![]() #356 - Jay Risner // Rejoicing When The Lost Come Home | A son looks his father in the eye and basically says, “I want your stuff, not you.” That’s the gut-punch at the center of Luke 15’s third parable, and it’s why this story cuts deeper than a lost sheep or a misplaced coin. I’m Jay Reisner, filling in this week, and I walk through the parable of the man with two sons to show what Scripture reveals about willful lostness, rebellion, and the long road back home. We talk about the scale of the loss in this parable and why it’s not just a sa... | 5m 47s | ||||||
| 5/12/26 | ![]() #355 - Jay Risner // Lost And Found | Grumbling religious leaders. A table full of sinners. And Jesus telling stories that land like a mirror. We step into Luke 15 with guest teacher Jay Reisner, lead pastor of Faith Bible Church, to explore why Jesus responds to criticism with parables that feel simple on the surface but cut straight to the heart of the gospel. First up is the lost sheep: not a villain, just a wanderer. We talk about why the Bible uses sheep as a recurring picture of God’s people, what it reveals about human na... | 5m 48s | ||||||
| 5/11/26 | ![]() #354 - Jay Risner // Jesus Eats With Sinners | The tension that sparks Luke 15 isn’t a theological debate, it’s a meal. Some of the most rejected people in society draw near to Jesus to listen, and the religious leaders can’t stand what they see: He receives sinners and eats with them. That short complaint reveals a lot about what we believe God is like, what we think grace costs, and who we assume is welcome. Jay Reisner joins The Daily Blade to set up a full week in Luke 15 and explain why this chapter sits at the epicenter of Jesus’ p... | 5m 48s | ||||||
