This one’s heavy but hopeful. In response to recent tragedies in the U.S., we’re taking the field to talk real about people — how to stay rooted in Christ, pick the right crew, and love hard even when the world is loud and broken. We’re ex-athletes who’ve been in locker rooms and life rooms — we’ll share the playbook: core values that make decisions easier, how proximity shapes you, the power of wise council and prayer, and why you should always choose kindness over being right. Expect raw stories, scripture, practical tips, and a take-home challenge to see the soul in others.

Fear isn’t something you outgrow—it’s something you face. We’ve both let fear control us at different points in life. It’s kept us from stepping into opportunities, made us believe lies about who we are, and even caused us to shrink back from the dreams God put on our hearts. Maybe you know that same fight.

In this episode, we open up about the real ways fear has shown up in our lives—through past trauma, self-image struggles, judgment from others, and the constant whisper of the enemy. But we also talk about what it looks like to push back, to step out of comfort zones, and to chase God’s purpose even when fear is still barking in the background.

This isn’t us preaching at you—it’s two brothers sharing the fight, reminding you that fear doesn’t get the final word. Jesus does.

👉 Don’t miss this one—because the next time fear shows up, you’ll be ready to call it what it is: a lie trying to keep you from your purpose.

In this powerful episode of Kingdom Bros, we sit down with Ryan Shieh — a former college athlete, author, preacher, and host of the Pruned Podcast. At just 22 years old, Ryan brings a level of spiritual depth and self-awareness that’s rare in any generation. He’s not here to play church — he’s here to expose the dangers of Counterfeit Christianity.

We dive deep into Ryan’s faith journey, his bold take on the modern Christian walk, and the hidden dangers of a shadow mission — that subtle, deceptive life path that looks holy but leads to compromise. Ryan also opens up about the role of social media, how to recognize lukewarm faith, and why young leaders must speak truth in love.

This conversation is raw, spirit-filled, and real. Whether you're 18 or 58, this episode will challenge and bless you.

🎯 Share this with a brother, teammate, cousin, or anyone who's ready for a wake-up call.
📕 Look out for Ryan’s upcoming book this fall: Counterfeit Christianity – 8 Statements to Identify Lukewarm Faith.

The most dangerous rut is the one you don’t even know you’re in. Life looks “fine,” but you feel stuck, uninspired, and disconnected from the fire you once had. In this episode, Lance and Steve pull back the curtain on what a rut really is—and how the quiet rhythms of comfort, busyness, and distraction can silently drain your purpose.

Steve shares the story of getting fired, feeling paralyzed, and being too afraid to step into what God had already shown him. He opens up about the fear of speaking, writing speeches he didn’t feel worthy to deliver, and how he still knew deep down—God called him to it.

We talk about how to recognize the rut, shift your focus (Philippians 4:8), and apply the PPR framework: Pause. Pray. Respond. You’ll learn the power of fasting to silence the flesh, and how eliminating hurry helps you hear God more clearly.

If you've been feeling off, uncertain, or like you were made for more but can’t seem to move — this one’s for you.

Listen now — before the rut becomes your routine.

Are you stuck in the cycle of doing more, trying harder, and still feeling like you’re not enough for God? What if the approval you’re striving for... you already have?

In this episode, we unpack the life-changing truth of living from approval, not for it. We talk about the exhausting weight of religion, the power of relationship, and why Jesus came to set you free from performance-based faith. You’ll hear raw stories, practical analogies, and biblical truth that will remind you: your salvation is secure, your sins are paid for, and you are already chosen.

Don’t scroll past—your heart needs this reminder today.

🎧 Tune in now and step into the freedom you were made for.

What if the battles you face daily aren’t just physical... but spiritual?

In this eye-opening episode, Kingdom Bros breaks down what many have never been told: the unseen world is real, the enemy is active, and Jesus has already won. We unpack what Scripture says about spiritual warfare, demonic influence, and how common practices—like consulting mediums, using Ouija boards, or following false gods—open doors to the enemy.

But here’s the truth: you have power through Jesus Christ. His Spirit lives in you, and you are not defenseless.

This episode will equip you to recognize the enemy’s tactics, stand firm in your authority, and walk boldly in victory.

🔥 If you’ve never heard this before—this is your wake-up call. Don’t miss it.

Before David killed Goliath, he delivered bread. Before God multiplies, He tests stewardship.

In this episode of Kingdom Bros, we explore how God has planned every detail—even the ones that feel small, unseen, or insignificant. From the parable of the talents to David’s humble delivery run, we reveal how greatness is built through faithful stewardship in the mundane.

If you’ve ever questioned whether today matters—this one’s for you.

🔥 Tune in and start seeing the small things the way God does.
