Podcast Show Notes
Wouldn’t it be great if all Christian men would start their day sitting and reading God’s Word and contemplating God’s encouragement for each day? The truth is many men do not typically begin the day sitting and reading. Here is some very encouraging news. Six years ago, 365 Christian Men started video recording ~7-minute stories of Hero of the Faith. These are available free, through an app or the website.
365 Christian Men is a project built on some basic truths about God and His character. God cares deeply about each man, and He has a specific purpose for every man’s life. God wants to tell His stories through the lives of His men. These very short stories would be about men who have fought their battles, are overcoming their obstacles, and are using the lessons they’ve learned to help others.
For more than two years, the team has worked hard to see that vision come to life. To make that happen, they were committed to several foundational truths:
1. History is shaped by how men live their lives.
2. No man is perfect. Many of the great triumphs in life have come through trials, great fails, setbacks, and heartache.
3. God can use real-life stories to demonstrate His power, His goodness, and His love for men. He can do tremendous things through a man who recognizes his need for God, is willing to submit to His plan, and will trust Him with his future.
The Executive Director of 365 Christian Men is our guest today. He is passionate about getting these stories out for all men to be able to read. In addition to the US, 365 Christian men are now in multiple countries reaching millions of men every week. In the US it is listed in the Top 10 Podcasts, but far exceeds that internationally.
Men, MMC highly recommends 365 Christian and encourages you to subscribe however you consume your podcasts. With a short story every day, followed by a simple but clear challenge on what to do with what you just heard, this will impact your life. You can listen on your way to work, while you walk or work out, or listen with a group of other men who are as serious about their faith as you are.
Blessings to Blake Mattocks and 365 Christian Men as you impact men around the world.
Questions to ask yourself:
- Where am I going for daily Biblical truth and Christian inspiration?
- When was the last time I heard a story of a Biblical or modern-day hero in the faith and applied truths of their life to my own?
- How would my faith be different if I would take less than 10 minutes a day for biblical truth and encouragement?
