In this episode, we sit down with Ducky, leader of Judah Tribe in central Arkansas, to hear his powerful story of military service, identity, struggle, faith, and brotherhood.

Ducky shares what life looked like before Christ, how the Army shaped him, the dangers of building your life around the wrong identity, and how God used Christian men, Scripture, and Men’s Alliance to reshape his life. He also opens up about marriage, fatherhood, launching a tribe, starting his podcast Wisdom for Warriors, and the many obstacles that nearly kept him from attending Carry the Fire.

This episode is for any man who feels stuck between old identities and the man God is calling him to become.

In this episode:

• Growing up without a strong father figure

• Joining the Army and serving with the 101st Airborne

• The veteran identity trap

• How Christian men changed his trajectory

• Starting Judah Tribe in Arkansas

• The real story behind his Carry the Fire journey

• Launching the Wisdom for Warriors podcast

• What it means to find your identity in Christ

If you’re a veteran, first responder, husband, father, or man trying to walk with Jesus in a world that keeps pulling you backward, this one will hit home.

Why are there so many different translations of the Bible? Is that a problem… or is it actually a strength?

In this episode, we break down why the Bible has multiple English translations, what it means that the Old Testament was written in Hebrew and the New Testament in Greek, and how reading multiple translations can actually help you understand Scripture more deeply.

We also tackle a common Muslim objection about Bible translations and explain why comparing the Bible to the Quran is not really an apples-to-apples comparison.

In this episode:

• Why the Bible has so many translations

• Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic explained simply

• Why multiple translations are actually helpful

• A practical example from Matthew 5:3

• Why the Quran also has multiple English translations

• Why Jesus compares more closely to the Quran than the Bible does

If you’ve ever wondered about KJV, NIV, NLT, NASB, or how to answer objections about Bible translations, this episode is for you.

Today we sit down with Ryan Pauly, founder of Think Well, to talk apologetics, evangelism, and the questions that shake faith—especially why God allows evil.

Ryan shares his journey from Christian upbringing to deep theological growth, why knowledge and love go together, and how apologetics fuels real evangelism by “clearing the fog” so people can see Jesus.

We also tackle:

• The emotional vs intellectual problem of evil

• Why evil and moral outrage actually point to objective morality

• The “God of the Old Testament is a moral monster” objection

• Slavery in the Bible: context, misconceptions, and hard questions

If you’re listening to this but you’re not in a Men’s Alliance tribe yet—this mission brief is for you.

If you want to be a better husband, father, and leader… but you still feel stuck, entangled, and defeated by sin, addiction, depression, or isolation—this may be why: the model you’ve been offered is flawed.

A lot of men’s ministry looks “manly” on the outside—warrior language, iron graphics, sword covers—but underneath it’s still the same thing: comfortable rooms, book studies, discussion circles, and people pretending they’re fine.

Men don’t change through comfort. Men change through challenge—and through brotherhood built in the fire. This is why Men’s Alliance starts with a rugged outdoor workout, builds real bonds through shared struggle, and stacks spiritual discipline on top (yes… memory verses + burpees).

If your current path isn’t producing freedom, strength, and brotherhood—maybe it’s time to try something that actually works.

What happens when someone who helped lead a Satanic church meets Jesus face-to-face?

In this powerful episode of the Men’s Alliance Podcast, Riaan Swiegelaar and Adele Vrey from DeliveranceHUB share their journey out of Satanism, the occult, and ritual abuse—and into freedom in Christ. They explain how deception works inside Satanism, why Satan does not “take care of” his followers, and how the enemy ultimately destroys those who serve him.

You’ll hear firsthand how occult practices operate behind closed doors, why many Satanists don’t realize what they’re truly stepping into, and how radical encounters with Jesus change everything. This conversation challenges Christians to take spiritual warfare seriously while staying rooted in prayer, Scripture, and the authority of Christ.

This episode is a wake-up call about spiritual deception, the power of Christ, and why the Church cannot afford to stay asleep.

I forgot my coin on a ruck with MA guys—and that meant burpees in the street of a small town diner… in the rain… with people watching.

A year ago, my pride would’ve stopped me. I would’ve made excuses. I would’ve lied. I would’ve protected my image.

Instead, I went outside and did the burpees.

This moment showed me something deeper:

Men’s Alliance + following Jesus is training me to stop caring what the world thinks.

My identity isn’t in how I look.

It’s not in approval.

It’s not in reputation.

My identity is in Christ—and that changes how I handle embarrassment, pride, and accountability.

This is a story about brotherhood, integrity, freedom from people’s opinions, and learning to live fully in who Jesus says you are.

What is Messianic Judaism, and why do some Jewish believers prefer terms like “Follower of Yeshua” instead of “Christian”? In this episode, we sit down with Rabbi David Wein (Tikvat Israel, Richmond VA) for a full Messianic Judaism 101 conversation.

We cover:

• The meaning of Messiah / Yeshua / “Body of Messiah”

• Torah vs Tanakh vs Talmud (and what those actually mean)

• Why language matters when talking to Jewish people about faith

• The best and worst ways Christians try to share Jesus with Jews

• A thoughtful response to the objection: “The God of the Old Testament is a moral monster”

• And yes—Isaiah 53: what it says, what it means, and why it becomes a flashpoint

This is a respectful, practical conversation designed to help you understand the Jewish context of the Bible and communicate the gospel with humility, clarity, and wisdom.

“Christian nationalism” is a label that gets thrown around constantly—but what does it actually mean? In this episode, we unpack where the term came from, how it’s being used in culture right now, and why many Christians who simply believe in law, order, and moral boundaries are being branded with it.

We talk about the difference between forced government compassion and voluntary Christian charity, why Christians believe morality isn’t decided by popular vote, and how our faith shapes our political views—not the other way around.

This is not about creating a theocracy. It’s about asking the deeper question: where do your morals come from, and who gets to decide what’s right and wrong? If you’ve ever been called a “Christian nationalist” or wondered how to respond, this episode will help you think clearly, speak wisely, and stand firm with conviction and grace.
