The Joy Ride #55

Welcome, fellow adventurers, to the Masculine Journey Joyride Podcast. This is a brand-new show from the guys you know.

I'm talking, of course, about the Band of Brothers. My name is Keith, and I'm the producer for Masculine Journey and Masculine Journey After Hours. In this podcast, you will hear funny stories, exchanges, and thought-provoking moments that will amuse you, make you smile, and draw you closer to Jesus Christ in your journey of life. You know, usually when you're talking condemnation, it's a pretty serious topic, but leave it to the guys to find the humor in an unlikely place. What's something that condemnation does at its core? I think a lot of people, it's identity. You know, it's like, you're this. People will name you.

And then we also hear it in our minds. You're such an idiot. You're a loser.

You know, and really that's the attack. You're an image bearer. That's your identity. God made you unique, fearfully and wonderfully made. He made you that way. And the enemy is tacky at that.

I mean, he's did it ever since the garden, and he continues to do it. And there's something about our identity that's so core to us that it takes us out from about all of life, really. If you don't feel good about yourself in who you are, not just this self-esteem thing, but who you are in God, you will struggle with accomplishing things, of finding your place in this world. I mean, I did it for many years, and the whole message of identity set me free. Yeah, I think that if you would have said the word loser and not pointed at Wayne, it probably would have went better for you. But since you said it and pointed at him. We'll talk after the show. So from the guys on Masculine Journey, I'm Keith, and we'll see you down the road. This is the Truth Network.
