Christian Men Are Lonely—and It's Becoming Dangerous - Spiritually Fit Today

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and Brian Doyle. In this episode we unpack the “question gap” many Christian fathers face—the late-night struggles, doubts, temptations, and loneliness that drive men to seek answers online instead of in community. Using Proverbs 27:17 (“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another”), Arnie and Brian encourage men to move from isolated spiritual searching to honest friendships and accountability. 4 R action steps: - Read: Proverbs 27:17. Read it slowly and note where your spiritual life needs sharpening. - Reflect: Ask: What am I wrestling with that I won’t tell my pastor or group? Where am I settling for quick online answers instead of real people? - Respond: Create an “iron list” of one or two men who could sharpen you. Send the text or make the call this week and set a time to meet in person. - Reveal: Share one honest struggle with a trusted brother and invite him to pray with you or meet regularly for mutual sharpening.
