About this episode

Chad shares his journey of realizing that true biblical manhood comes from surrendering to God rather than relying on willpower.

Ever feel like you’re doing all the Christian things… but nothing is changing? You go to church, try to be a good husband, dad, and man of God—but behind closed doors you’re still battling anger, lust, hypocrisy, or spiritual emptiness. In this episode, Chad (pharmacist, pastor, men’s coach, and host of the Rev RX podcast) shares the turning point that changed everything: the night he hit the end of himself and realized you can’t “white-knuckle” your way into biblical manhood. If you’ve been chasing success, the American Dream, approval, or people-pleasing—yet still feel empty—this conversation will hit home. You’ll hear how real transformation starts with surrender to God, building an actual relationship with God, and living from grace instead of willpower. This is for the man who wants to stop going through the motions and start walking with God daily through Scripture, prayer, and worship—and for the man who wants to become the kind of discipler who helps other men grow too.
