  • Finally…real life truth for completely burnt out men

    This podcast is very different. Well done! Finally a completely practical and totally functional solution to the struggle that is exhausting to deal with. Working under the Word of God your podcast is just hard hitting on the problems every man with a pulse faces and calls it for what it is… but you guide to only real and absolute solution. His Name is Jesus. Well done on orienteering men (and women) to find the way to Him in a raw and honest way. Great work!

I am so grateful that there is a podcast that speaks truth that is backed by scripture to help us have revelation. Th... more
