Episode 63 | Parental Pride: Modeling Humility, Perseverance, and Real Strength

In this episode of Brotherhood Forged, we dive into the mask of parental pride and the importance of modeling authentic strength and humility for our kids. Too often, as fathers and mothers, we feel pressured to present a polished image — one that looks unshakable and perfect. But what our children really need is real-life examples of perseverance, honesty, and humility.
 
🔥 Topics we cover today:
Why trying to be the “perfect parent” actually harms our kids.
How modeling vulnerability and humility teaches lasting lessons.
Personal stories of health struggles, perseverance, and showing up even in weakness.
Practical parenting tips for modeling resilience and honesty.
The importance of connecting with kids through shared experiences.
A biblical reminder from Psalm 127:3: “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.”
 
This conversation is an encouragement to drop the pride, embrace humility, and show our kids not just strength — but how to walk through struggle with faith.
✨ Challenge for this week:
Share one of your “I don’t have it all together” moments with your kids. Show them how you learned and how they can, too.

Episode 62 | Ego vs. Pride: Recognizing the Voices That Keep Us Stuck

Ego has two voices: one whispers, “I’ve done enough, recognize me.” The other shouts, “I’ll never be enough.” Both can keep us stuck.
 
In this episode of Brotherhood Forged, we unpack the battle with ego and pride—how they show up in our lives, how they hold us back, and how to recognize their voices before they derail our growth.
 
You’ll hear:
The dual nature of ego: the self-promoter vs. the insecure critic
Why pride often sounds like, “I don’t need help”
How unchecked pride destroys connection and growth
A practical challenge for you this week: ask someone you trust, “Where do you see me getting in my own way?”
The biblical warning in Proverbs 16:18: “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.”
 
This isn’t about staying stuck in criticism or ego—it’s about using humility to grow into the man God is calling you to be.
 
🔥 Weekly Challenge: Ask a trusted friend or your spouse where pride is getting in your way. Receive their feedback with humility, not defense.

Episode 61| Pride in Marriage: Choosing Intimacy Over Ego

Pride is sneaky. It shows up in small arguments—like how the dishwasher is loaded—and in bigger moments of control and stubbornness. But here’s the truth: when pride wins, no one really wins.
 
This week, we’re unpacking how pride affects life, faith, and especially marriage—and why choosing intimacy over ego leads to connection, peace, and growth.
 
📖 Ephesians 5:21 reminds us: “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” Marriage works best when it’s “we,” not “me.”
 
👉 This week’s challenge: Let your spouse have the last word. Not because you’re defeated, but because connection is greater than correction.

Episode 60 Special. Why Do Bad Things Happen? A Christian Response to the Charlie Kirk Tragedy

When tragedy strikes—especially someone we know, follow, or look up to—it forces us to ask hard questions.
 
In this episode, Paul and [Host Name] process the shocking death of Charlie Kirk with honesty, grief, and faith. Rather than speculating on politics or motives, we open Scripture to wrestle with timeless questions:
Why do bad things happen to good people?
Why are Christians often hated for their faith?
Where is God when darkness seems to win?
How should we respond when others question or attack our faith?
 
Rooted in John 15, John 3, Job 1, and Ephesians 6, this conversation is both raw and hope-filled. We talk about free will, the reality of evil, and God’s sovereignty—even when life feels out of control.
 
🙏 If you’ve struggled with grief, doubt, or leading your family through times of uncertainty, this episode will encourage you to stand firm in Christ and lead with integrity.

Episode 58 | Count It All Joy: Trials Are Preparation, Not Punishment

“Trials aren’t punishment. They’re preparation.”
In this episode, Paul and Joey unpack James 1:2–4 and explore how God uses struggles to shape patience, perseverance, and character.
 
Paul shares personal stories of cancer, loss, and life’s hardest seasons—showing how those moments weren’t meant to break him, but to refine him. Joey challenges us to shift our perspective and ask:
👉 “What is God building in me through this trial?”
 
If you’re in the fire right now, this conversation will help you see it’s not there to destroy you—it’s there to transform you.

Episode 57 | Preparing Your Kids for the Path, Not the Path for Your Kids

As fathers, our job isn’t to shield our kids from every struggle — it’s to prepare them to face life’s challenges with strength, faith, and resilience.
 
In this episode of Brotherhood Forged, we talk about:
Why overprotecting your kids robs them of resilience
The difference between preparing the path for your kids vs. preparing your kids for the path
How sports, discipline, and even hardship create lasting confidence
Modeling endurance, ownership, and faith in front of your children
Why today’s culture struggles with accountability — and how we can break the cycle
 
📖 Key Scripture Inspiration:
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
