The Check-In: Making Peace with the Man You Used to Be

Every man has a version of himself he’s not proud of—the one who fell short, lost control, or lived in the dark. In this episode, we ask one of the most important and difficult questions: “Have you made peace with the version of you that didn’t have it all together?”
We talk about what it really means to forgive ourselves, how shame keeps us stuck, and why God’s love isn’t just for your future self—it’s for you right now, in your mess. This one’s all about healing, surrender, and walking in the freedom Christ already won for you.
If you're tired of carrying guilt like armor… this episode is for you.
Scripture Focus:2 Corinthians 5:17 | Psalm 103:12 | Romans 5:8 (Catholic Bible)

Friday Fuel: When You Feel Like Giving Up, Trust God

This week on Friday Fuel, we dive deep into the story of Elijah in the wilderness (1 Kings 19:1–18)—a man of God who, after a great victory, hits rock bottom and begs for death. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s raw, real, and something every man needs to hear.
 
If you’re struggling with burnout, depression, or just feeling like you're barely hanging on, this message is for you. Elijah’s story shows us that even the strongest men can feel broken—but God meets us right there, in the silence, in the wilderness, and reminds us we’re not alone.
