Send us Fan MailMost men never draw the line in the sand.  Joshua did — at the end of his life, scarred and weathered, standing before men who still had idols hidden in their tents. His words weren’t a slogan. They were a challenge:“Choose you this day whom you will serve.”In this episode, we talk about the one decision every man must make — and why so many of us avoid it. Joshua’s challenge echoes straight into Romans 12:2, where Paul shows us the process of becoming the man God designed us to be:Do not conform. Be transformed. Renew your mind. Discern God’s will.We’ll walk through:Why men drift spiritually instead of choosing GodHow “idols in the tent” keep you stuckWhy renewing your mind is the foundation of transformationHow your strongest thoughts shape your lifeWhy wisdom begins with the fear of the LordWhat true biblical masculinity actually looks likeHow to make the next right choice — every single dayIf you’ve ever felt torn between who you’ve been and who God is calling you to become, this episode is your line in the sand.Choose you this day.https://www.skool.com/the-cave-of-adullum-1668/[email protected] the show

Send us Fan MailMost men don’t realize how easy it is to drift spiritually, mentally, and emotionally — until something breaks. In my case, it was subtle depression, a mild heart attack, and a birthday I didn’t even remember. I thought I was transforming my life through fitness, discipline, and hustle… but the truth is, I was putting God behind me, and that was the problem.In this episode, I share the raw, unfiltered story of how my pursuit of physical transformation became an idol that fed my ego, distracted my heart, and nearly destroyed my marriage. I talk about the emotional affair that formed out of neglect, the moment my wife discovered it, and the decision that forced me to confront who I had become.But this isn’t a story about failure — it’s a story about surrender.It’s about how God used my lowest moments to rebuild me from the inside out.It’s about mental health, mental recovery, and the true transformation that only happens when you stop conforming to the world and start renewing your mind through Christ.If you’re a man who feels numb, disconnected, ashamed, or stuck in cycles you can’t break… you’re not alone. You’re not beyond redemption. You’re one surrender away from a completely different life.This is how God took what almost destroyed me — and forged it into my calling.https://www.skool.com/the-cave-of-adullum-1668/aboutSupport the show

Send us Fan MailThis week I’m talking about something that’s been sitting heavy on my heart: the decisions we make as men, and how Romans 12:2 is the starting point for all of it. I’m not giving you a full masterclass on “the code” today — this episode is really the beginning of a journey I’m taking right alongside you. As I said in the episode, “Where you are in your life… are a result of the decisions and the choices you’ve made.” That hit me hard, and I think it’ll hit you too.I’m also shifting how I show up on these Valiant Monday episodes. No scripts. No polished AI hooks. Just me, letting the Holy Spirit lead and sharing what I’m learning in real time. Like I said, “Now you’re gonna hear the real me… the Midwestern not‑eloquent‑speech guy.”Romans 12:2 has become the foundation for what biblical masculinity looks like in my own life — not conforming to the world, but letting God renew my mind so I can actually make godly decisions. That’s the code. That’s where it starts.If you’re a man trying to grow, trying to get unstuck, or trying to become who God called you to be, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailTom Snow’s testimony is a spiritual epic — a journey through guilt, grief, supernatural visions, and divine healing. After losing his mother to cancer, Tom believed his own scientific experiments had caused her death. When a tumor began growing inside him, he kept it secret, convinced he deserved to die.For months, he was haunted by visions of puff clouds drifting overhead, each showing life continuing without him. Then, in a moment of divine intervention, God spoke audibly — thunderous, loving, unmistakable.What followed was a desperate search for salvation, a brother’s radical conversion during an LSD trip, and a season of spiritual warfare, addiction, and transformation. Tom wrestled with healing, pride, and the power of God — until one night, riding his motorcycle, the Lord revealed the completed work of the cross. Within 24 hours, the tumor that had grown to the size of a football was gone.But the deeper healing came later — when God asked Tom to forgive his father, and then himself. What followed was a restoration of relationship, a revelation of generational curses, and a poetic reconciliation that only God could orchestrate.In this episode, Tom also confronts fake religiosity, performance-based faith, and the myth of earning God’s love. He shares how true transformation comes not from striving, but from yielding — and how forgiveness is not a feeling, but a Spirit-led choice.just2beclear.comWant to be a guest on The Valiant Forge Podcast?
