Let’s be honest about how a lot of men approach their walk with God. For years, the standard operating procedure for Christian men has looked like this… you roll out of bed on Sunday morning, put on a decent shirt, grab a cup of coffee, and sit in a pew for an hour....
Why Christian Men Need to Be at the 1613 Men’s Conference
Modern culture loves to preach a watered-down version of manhood. It tells men to sit on the sidelines, keep their heads down, avoid friction, and keep their faith tucked neatly into a Sunday morning. The world wants comfortable, passive, agreeable men who won’t make...
What to Do When God Changes Your Deployment
In the military, not many things mess with a unit’s focus quite like a sudden change in mission orders. You spend months preparing for one specific objective. You've studied the terrain, memorized the map, rehearse the movement, and prepared every piece of gear for...
Casual Friendship Won’t Save Your Soul
Most men in today’s culture are surrounded by people, but completely starved of real connection. We have coworkers we chat with by the water cooler, gym partners we trade sets with, and friends we text when the game is on. We meet up on the weekend, grab a cold...
Reclaiming Purpose When the Title Disappears
I spent years knowing exactly who I was. When you spend your youth as a Marine, a SEAL, and a Tier 1 operator, your identity isn’t something you have to search for. It’s handed to you alongside your gear. I knew the mission down to the minute details. The enemy. The...

Scrolling through social media on any given day, you’re bombarded by self-help gurus, high-performance influencers, and coaches telling you that they have the secret formula to fix your life. They tell you that if you just wake up at 0400, jump in an ice bath, drink...
Your Actions Really Do Speak Louder Than Words
It’s a sobering reality that every man must eventually confront: your life is a living manual for the people around you. We like to think that we can compartmentalize our lives. That we can say all the right things in public, pass down good advice to our sons… and...
Don’t be a Lone Wolf. Veterans Need a Squad.
When a man leaves the military, he goes through one of the most abrupt and jarring transitions a person can experience. One day, you’re part of a highly disciplined, elite collective. Your purpose is clear, your brothers are fiercely loyal, and your daily actions...
Building Stronger Kids, One Conversation at a Time
It’s an easy trap for men to fall into… we think our job as a father is to solely provide a roof, put food on the table, and lay down the law. We bark orders, correct bad behavior, and assume that because we said it, our kids are learning it. But here is the hard...
