TMP 218 - If You Knew God Was Sending Someone…

 In this episode, I slow down and look at what the Christmas story teaches us about recognizing the people God puts in our path. You’ll discover why some encounters aren’t coincidences at all, they’re divine appointments that can change the trajectory of your life. #truemanpodcast

Breakthrough doesn’t start with clarity, it starts with pressure, uncertainty, and the inner war every man faces before God shifts his life. In this episode of the True Man Podcast, I explore what Jesus taught before transformation and how to endure the exact moment most men walk away.

Join me on the True Man Podcast as I reimagine the holiday name of Thanksgiving to "Giving Thanks"—a shift from a day to a way of life. Instead of simply celebrating what we have, we’d focus on actively appreciating and giving back, allowing gratitude to guide our lives beyond a single day. In this episode, I explore how adopting a daily "Giving Thanks" mindset can deepen our faith, strengthen our relationships, and bring purpose and joy that lasts far beyond the holiday season. #truemanpodcast #startyourcomebackstory
