Most of us have seen a good “cliff-hanger” movie. The formula is predictable: the clock is ticking, imminent danger is coming, there are limited or no options, a dramatic intervention, and then a mix of relief and celebration wash over you with a good catharsis. The unspoken conclusion? THAT was a close one! History is […]
Every person ever created knows there’s more than just this life and desires that MORE! You see it in every culture across the globe. What you also see is that instead of relating to, following, worshipping, and giving our lives to the one true original Creator, we settle for forgeries and fakes – gods that […]

We all believe our opinions are right, that is until we’re proven wrong. But can we gain wisdom before falling on our faces? Is pain our only teacher? What about the current generation? The men who have gone before us and have so much to offer us? If we’re the generation whose role it is […]
As kids we have all played games where our performance was being counted on to “keep it going”. You’d shoot three point shots, and after a few people in a row made it someone would shout out “don’t break the chain!” They were calling on you to perform. Connecting the past success with the future […]
The impact of a connected life is difficult to measure. Truly, the impact is generational. But…this is yet another aspect of community that is has become exceedingly rare today…multi-generational community. Multi-generational discipleship. Coaching. Teaching. Mentoring. In many ways, we are losing the communal nature of our faith that defined the early church. How do we reclaim these […]
In the most connected generation of all time, we often feel completely disconnected. We’ve bought the lie that digital connection is real and meaningful connection. We’ve associated Facebook friends with…actual friends. What do we need as God’s men? What type of friendships should we pursue? True friendships, warriors of the heart who will fight with […]
No one ever wakes up and decides to seek a solitude life. It isn’t a single decision that pushes the people in our lives, out. The drift into isolation is as slow as it is damaging. As men we need to heed the warning signs. Where are we pulling back, rather than stepping in? Where […]
It wasn’t long before God looked upon Adam and said “this isn’t good”. Not that Adam wasn’t good, or that his situation was sinful…it just wasn’t TOV. Tov is a Hebrew word which carries the idea of perfect goodness, of life as it should be…of the life lived out in community. We were designed for […]
Families are full of imperfect and flawed human beings. Because of this conflict is inevitable. Think about a toddler who doesn’t get what they want or whose expectations are not met. Now just add 10, 20, or 30 years to that same person. Still imperfect, still flawed, still full of unmet needs and desires living under the same roof. Conflict in families knows no age limit. However, did you know that God has a desire for you in all your disagreements? Did you know that God says anger is normal ? Did you know that anger can be present but sin does not have to be? Did you know that The Devil is waiting to pounce and seize every opportunity anger presents? In part four of FIGHT FOR THE FAM men’s expert and pastor Kenny Luck takes you in a journey into God’s Word that will show you exactly how to handle conflict, not destroy, keep evil at bay, and glorify God.
