The Man You’re Meant to Be with John Simons

from Man to Men

Jared talks with men’s pastor and author John Simons about becoming the man God actually designed you to be. They hit on sonship over “man up”, how to spot wisdom from above vs. below, and why real brotherhood means honesty, not image. John gets candid about control, coping, and learning to lead with a limp—so you can follow Jesus with courage right now.Buy John's Book: "The Man You're Meant to Be"Follow John:⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠SUPPORT Man to Men by visiting ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://byx.org/give/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and become an INDIVIDUAL PARTNERFollow Man to Men & Beta Upsilon Chi:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Produced by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Good Podcast Co.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠0:00 Reviving Men's Faith and Identity in Modern Culture4:33 The Journey of Fatherhood and True Masculinity in Christ13:16 Reclaiming Men's Spiritual Formation and Brotherhood in Church19:59 Men's Struggles, Accountability, and Finding Meaning in Faith24:54 Overcoming Addiction and Finding Freedom Through Vulnerability26:15 Surrendering Control and the Quiet Life of a Disciple29:28 The Art of Friendship and Vulnerability in Modern Church Life33:36 Balancing Family, Faith, and Personal Well-Being36:27 Finding Spiritual Nourishment Through Selective Bible Reading39:33 Balancing Friendship and Vocation for Personal Well-Being42:58 Exploring Fiction, Podcasts, and Creative Balance in Life46:39 Embracing Weakness and Identity in Faith and Family
