    Apr 10 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    AI is coming for your job… but it might also make you rich.

    In this conversation, we break down the truth about artificial intelligence, what it’s really doing to the world, and why it’s about to widen the gap between winners and losers. We talk about whether AI is killing creativity, if people are becoming dependent on machines, and the deeper question most aren’t asking… are we slowly replacing our thinking, our relationships, and even our faith?

  • Christians Keep Dividing Over This… And It’s Hurting the Church | The Lord's Giant
    Feb 26 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Christians keep dividing over secondary issues, and it’s hurting the Church. In this powerful conversation, we tackle why believers argue over theology, hell, deliverance, and denominational differences while people are walking away from the faith feeling unheard and hopeless.

    We discuss majors vs minors in Christianity, eternal conscious torment vs annihilationism, deconstruction, church hurt, spiritual warfare, and why asking hard questions should never get someone silenced. If Christians cannot disagree with humility, unity suffers, and the next generation leaves.

    This episode is a call for biblical courage, theological depth, and Christlike love. The world does not need louder Christian arguments. It needs Christians who reflect Jesus in truth, grace, and action.

  • It’s Easier to Become a Millionaire Than Get Six-Pack Abs (Here’s Why)
    Feb 10 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Did you know visible 6-pack abs are rarer than being a millionaire? Only 2–3% of Americans have visible abs, while 7–10% are millionaires. In this episode, we break down discipline, health, nutrition, fitness, and what it means to steward your body as a Kingdom man.

    Most men think getting in shape is about vanity…
    But what if it’s actually about legacy, leadership, protection, confidence, and calling?

    In this powerful Rise Up Kings conversation, we unpack:

    • Why physical discipline mirrors financial discipline

    • How to start from zero (even if you’re overweight or discouraged)

    • The truth about nutrition, seed oils, and real health

    • Why your body is the vehicle God gave you for purpose

    • How small daily steps compound into transformation


    This isn’t about beach abs.
    It’s about becoming the man God designed you to be.

  • Why 'God Told Me' Becomes Dangerous without Counsel
    Jan 30 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this Rise Up Kings Podcast episode, Coach Mondo sits down with Coach Jon Wood (“Switch”) and Pastor David for a deep, unfiltered conversation about Jesus, politics, masculinity, sexual ethics, prophetic words, and hearing God’s voice in a divided culture.

    This isn’t a surface-level debate.

    The discussion breaks down how Jesus’ announcement of the Kingdom of God was a direct challenge to Rome’s power, why modern political labels don’t fit a first-century Messiah, and how Jesus would likely be received today in conversations surrounding LGBTQ issues, cultural identity, and morality.

    The episode also unpacks:

    - Jesus’ teachings as nonviolent resistance, not passivity
    - Why “God told me” can become a spiritual manipulation tactic
    - How to discern a true word from God using Scripture, fruit, peace, and - maturity
    - Whether spiritual gifts can be developed or are only divinely assigned
    - The difference between meekness and weakness for strong Christian men
    - When force, self-defense, or protection may be morally justified

    This conversation challenges both political sides because Jesus doesn’t fit modern categories. He confronts power, disrupts comfort, loves people without affirming sin, and calls men to strength under control.

    The episode closes with a sobering reminder from John 10:27:

    “My sheep hear My voice… the real question isn’t whether God is speaking — it’s whether you’re listening.”

    Chapters:
    00:00:00 — Was Jesus conservative or liberal? Kingdom of God vs Caesar
    00:02:17 — A first-century Jew in 21st-century political categories
    00:03:18 — Social conservatism, fiscal generosity, and sexual ethics
    00:04:31 — “Turn the other cheek” as nonviolent resistance
    00:06:52 — How Jesus would be received today (LGBTQ + politics)
    00:10:16 — “I have a word from the Lord”: when to be cautious
    00:12:18 — Scripture as the filter: conviction vs condemnation
    00:14:23 — The fruit test: character, maturity, and relationship
    00:17:14 — Shocking real-life prophetic moments
    00:36:34 — How to hear God: Scripture, counsel, reason, tradition
    00:46:18 — Meekness vs weakness: the lion choosing restraint
    00:54:06 — Self-defense, force vs violence, and Christian ethics

  • From PTSD to Healing: A Marine's Secret on Conquering Fear
    Jan 23 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    If you are trapped in fear and anxiety, you are not alone. In this Rise Up Kings conversation, Green Beret Master Sergeant Jeremy McWilliams and former Marine bomb disposal Staff Sergeant John Wood break down why fear is universal, why most fear is tied to control and the unknown, and how to build real courage through stress inoculation, exposure, and disciplined action.

    You will learn how to stop spiraling about worst case scenarios, why “90% of what you fear will never happen,” and how to get out of your head by carrying a load, staying in your business, and taking small steps toward the thing you fear. John shares a powerful testimony of PTSD, suicidal thoughts, and how God brought healing and restored identity in Christ. They also cover fear of AI, end times anxiety, Christian masculinity, parenting without helicopter fear, and why unconditional love and truth together change everything.

    If you want practical tools to overcome fear, stop overthinking, grow as a Christian man, and lead your family with strength and faith, this episode will help.

  • The Hidden Reason High Achievers Never Find Peace | Scott Donnell
    Jan 9 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    If you’re a high achiever who loves Jesus, but still feels restless, anxious, and never at peace, this conversation will hit hard.

    Scott Donnell breaks down what’s actually driving anxiety, performance, control, and burnout in entrepreneurs and Christian men — and why the pursuit of success can become a spiritual stronghold. We unpack the 3 core wounds (abandonment, betrayal, contempt), how they shape your identity, and why identity can’t be achieved — it can only be received.

    We also talk about cultural Christianity, lukewarm faith, sanctification, eternal rewards, taking faith risks, biblical stewardship, generosity that costs something, and the legacy you leave your kids — because what you don’t heal, you pass down.

    If you’re trying to build a life of purpose, lead your family well, and follow Jesus without white-knuckling everything, this episode is for you.

  • Burnout, Conflict, Self-Sabotage—What's Actually Causing It?
    Dec 24 2025

    Send us Fan Mail

    Christian men, masculinity, leadership, humility, ego, insecurity, confidence, identity in Christ. This episode exposes the “hidden problem” behind burnout, conflict, and self-sabotage (masked as success).

    Most guys don’t realize the real issue isn’t anger, ambition, or even performance; it’s what’s operating beneath the surface. We unpack how ego shows up in leadership, marriage, and brotherhood, why “false humility” is still self-focused, and how to build grounded confidence without posturing.

    You’ll hear:

    • How unspoken expectations turn into resentment
    • When leaders must be curious vs. certain
    • Why insecurity fuels the hidden problem
    • The simplest way to receive compliments with strength (“Thank you”)
    • How training, discipline, and keeping your word rebuild self-esteem
    • Why Scripture is the higher source of truth when “groupthink” feels right

    If you want to lead your home, your business, and your body with conviction—without being driven by the hidden problem—this conversation will challenge you and sharpen you.
