March 13, 2023 10:00 - 11 minutes - 9.58 MBOn EP. 161 Justin is back on the pod as we focus on planning your purpose for what is at stake. We have to be intentional about being the men God is calling us to be! But first you need a plan, without a plan you will be lost on your pathway to purpose up the mountain.

January 23, 2023 11:00 - 7 minutes - 6.13 MBOn EP. 154 Justin joins the podcast as he talks about recognizing the visible reminders of God's faithfulness in our lives. Recognizing who God is and what He's doing is NOT an easy task when faced with the many obstacles life throws our way. A practical way to start recognizing God is to start your day with Him – in prayer, in Bible study, reflection. It's easy to focus on what we don't have rather than what do. Recognizing God as the source for those moments will help you start pairing them...

January 09, 2023 11:00 - 7 minutes - 6.7 MBOn EP. 152 Garret is back in the book of James as he discusses what it looks like to choose a pathway to freedom. Over the past few weeks we've discussed this idea of choosing two pathways when faced with trials. We can choose to consider it "pure joy" when we face trials or we can choose to the path of fear and anxiety. When we choose pathway #1, we persevere and mature and the result is we do what God's Word says. When we take the pathway of anxiety and fear we will ultimately fall to tempt...
Take Every Thought Captive (EP. 151)
January 02, 2023 11:00 - 7 minutes - 6.74 MBOn EP. 151 Garret dives into 2 Corinthians 10:5 as we talk about taking EVERY thought captive and making it obedient to Christ.

Men when faced with a temptation or trial we can either GIVE IN in or LEAN IN. Lean into the Holy Spirit, you can’t do it alone! We need the help of the Holy Spirit and the help of others. When we face our tri...

December 26, 2022 11:00 - 6 minutes - 5.79 MBOn EP. 150 we continue the conversation around standing firm in the middle of life's trials. In James 1:2, James is challenging us to "consider it pure joy" when we face trials of many kinds. There are ultimately two ways to respond when life gets hard.

"How I respond to trials determines whether I ...

That’s what makes the Father proud. “All God wants is just your obedience to trust Him.” // Garret Barbush **SUBSCRIBE & LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS & SPOTIFY. FULL SHOW NOTES AT ME...

Edwin Lous Cole said, "Marriage may be the closest thing to Heaven or Hell any of us will know on this earth." I desire to have a true relationship with my wife.

Last week we talked about the significance of anchoring down, today we talk about leaving the harbor. A vessel shouldn’t stay sheltered in the harbor forever. You were created for adventure, for the choppy seas. Regular respites are the only way to stay seaworthy. When you are healthy, you can continually pursue the adventures of life. When God’s Word, prayer, and solitude are a man’s top priorities, then he can stand firm amid storms, an...
A Man's Voyage Part 4: Anchor Down Or Drift Away (EP. 140)
October 17, 2022 10:00 - 5 minutes - 4.54 MBOn EP. 140 we continue our series, "A Man's Voyage." Today on Part 4 Garret talks about the importance of ships coming into the harbor for rest. The same can be true of each of our voyages – As men, like the vessel, we typically find ourselves ‘out at sea’ trying to do good work. We continuously run hard, neglecting our spiritual health. Eventually, the elements wear us down until one day, we are incapable of pursuing the voyage God has designed us for. Before attempting to live effectively o...

On Part 2 Garret talked about how we often make the process of discovering our why more difficult than it needs to be. Today on Part 3 we take a deeper dive into the Great Commission. In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus speaks His last words to the men who were closest to Him. Similar to the greatest commandment, the Great Commission is simple yet powerful. It helps us understand what should transpire when we are in true relationship with Jesus. Lov...

In Part 2 Garret talks about how we often make the process of discovering our why more difficult than it needs to be. We don't need to find purpose, our purpose is a voyage. Jesus reveals our purpose to us in Matthew 22:34-38 and Matthew 28:16-20. Men, our purpose is rooted in loving God and loving others. What are you living for? "Without a clear destination, the voyage before us can get...
A Man's Voyage Part 1: Discovering Your Why (EP. 137)
September 26, 2022 10:29 - 5 minutes - 4.86 MBOn EP. 137 we start a series called “A Man’s Voyage.” On Part 1 Garret talks about Simon Sinek and his book, Start With Why. Sinek concluded that every inspiring leader or organization is successful because they focus on “Why.” It’s their bullseye. Most men go through life not thinking about their why, or what their purpose in life is. Men, your “why” is your purpose! It‘s the reason YOU exist. “Why” is what gets you out of bed in the morning. We hope that this episode and series will help YO...

Men, the single greatest thing we can do on this earth is to love the Lord our God with all of our hearts, soul, mind and strength. Adventure Awaits! If you are ready to take a step onto the mountain to know God and your p...

September 12, 2022 10:00 - 6 minutes - 5.53 MBOn EP. 135 we take a look at the life of Daniel. As men we should be drawn to Daniel and how he lived his life.

In Chapter 10 we see Daniel mourning for three weeks because so few of the people had returned from exile. How do you respond when your expectations are not met? Daniel responds with biblical mourning, he...
Develop Leaders, Not Followers (EP. 134)
September 05, 2022 10:00 - 8 minutes - 6.71 MBOn EP. 134 Garret continues the conversation on the importance of mentoring the next generation. In Judges 2 we read that the next generation after Joshua did NOT have a personal relationship with God. How did this happen?

Fathers, are we so focused on leading in other places that we are NOT mentoring our children? Business leaders, are we so concerned with growing the busines...
