Jerry Wallace has worn many hats over the course of his life—military man (including serving as a guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier), student, businessman, college professor, writer, and family man. It’s all given him a wide-ranging perspective on life and success. One thing, he says, has never changed: “The foundation of it all is God’s word.” Jerry shares with Paul Amos how trusting in God’s plan leads to true significance in life—whether in business, family, or in any other area of life.

Jon Ebert, founder of Single Stone Counseling, comes from a lineage of pastors. Perhaps that’s why his work focuses on religious leaders, who can feel ashamed to admit they’re struggling. This week, Jon talks with Redeemed founder Paul Amos about the big expectations that can burden men, striving for authenticity, and how we can redefine society’s warped, stereotypical view of masculine strength by focusing on the example presented by Jesus.

After spending his formative years in and out of prison, fighting in a street gang, Franklin Rivas Hodge left his native El Salvador for the United States with a bounty on his head. But crossing the Rio Grande was only the beginning. Franklin still had to overcome his feelings of anger and hopelessness.

Franklin talks this week about the desolate lows and improbable triumphs of his life, offering inspiration for men battling self-doubt and struggling to put their full trust in God.

Barnabas Piper grew up the son of a pastor who practiced what he preached and encouraged deep conversations about God. Despite that upbringing, Barnabas found himself facing a crisis of identity and faith in his mid-20s. Ultimately, that crisis led to divorce, but the spiritual renewal he experienced taught him a lot about being a better husband, father, and disciple. Barnabas shares those lessons this week, along with thoughts on redemption, repentance, and voicing one’s sin and pain to God.
