Are others "cheating" or are you limiting yourself?

There seem to be many instances today of people playing soccer with their hands or playing by a different set of rules.
When we encounter a situation where we feel this way we have a few options.

1. Pout and go sit in the bleachers.
2. Nobly stick to our guns and your rules and play harder.
3. Evaluate why you are playing by your set of rules.

You may be lined up on the football field ...

In this episode, we go way back to episode 34 of the Ever Vigilant podcast to a conversation I had with a man who has become a friend, Scott Smith. He says his calling is to see Christian men properly restored to God's expectations. Men of action. Healed, restored, and ready to Disciple the next generation. I hope that you are challenged and encouraged by our conversation.

Fighting Chaos

I posted the show notes from the previous episode of Heroes Wanted on Instagram last week. I received a great reply from my friend Mark Booher over @TheBarritus. Mark has been a guest on several of my podcast episodes and is a wealth of information.

Quote-
“I also think facing chaos is intimidating because it’s unknown - without the form we’re accustomed to. But it’s from chaos that order is formed. And if you look at t...

"Talk is cheap", I clearly remember my uncle telling me. I was in my early teens and didn't quite understand the significance of his statement. I reflect on this thought regularly and attempt to weigh what I say against it. In this crazy world, action is the remedy.

Talking creates noise
Noise creates chaos
Chaos creates fear

The only remedy is action. Every that you complain you indite yourself.

I want to touch on two issues that preve...

Once again, I dive into Hero Theory this time looking at Moses the man who lead the Hebrews out of the land of Egypt. The theory is that there are three giants that must be overcome in order to truly be a hero. Fear, lies, and the expectations of others keep you from rising up and serving a purpose bigger than you. You are not granted hero status by your pay scale, office location, uniform or something that you did long ago, hero s...

All warfare is based on deception - Sun Tzu, The Art of War

We can become so entranced by the glitz, glamour, lights, and glory of sports, news,
movies, and television “programming’ (fitting word, right?), that we
lose track of the fact we are constantly being sold something:
sometimes an upgrade to something that we already own, a new car
or a watch, or even a pair of shoes. But often we're being sold
something else, something insi...

In this episode of Heroes Wanted I dive into 'The Script'.

Almost all men follow a script for the first 30+ years of their life.

The script varies by culture, family tradition, country, etc. But looks something like this.

School
College, Military or Training of some kind
Job
Marriage
Children

Some of you may have been rebels and skipped a step or changed the order but regardless you followed a script.

The script isn't bad it kept you on a ...

I was asked awhile back to share some of my favorite books. With my Audible library up over 450 titles at this point, I have listened to a lot of books on many different topics.

At some point I may do another favorite books of all time episode, but I thought a look at my favorites of 2021 would be better at this point. I wanted to keep the episode a reasonable length so I kept my thoughts on each book short. If you have any questi...

In this episode, I talk about taking action. Despite of of the rules, despite of the nay-sayers, despite of the hate, you must take action and move forward in your mission.

In this episode, I break continue to break down the origin story of Gideon in the book of Judges verse six. Fear. Lies. Expectations of Others. These are three of the biggest challenges to abandoning average and uncovering the Hero within.

In the first episode of 2022, we break down the origin story of Gideon in the book of Judges verse six. There is a vivid picture of the chaos and devastation of the time, as some begin to call out in prayer an unlikely Hero emerges.

When Gideon is called out, his story begins where many men find themselves today. He first plays the victim card and when those claims are answered, he begins to make excuses and show his doubt in himse...
