We live in an age where advice is endless, but true wisdom is rare. From well-meaning family and friends to bestselling self-help authors and polished social media influencers, wisdom seems to be everywhere. Don’t be fooled though. Not all wisdom is equal. In fact, Scripture makes it clear that when it comes to seeking wisdom, there are two competing sources at work: wisdom that comes from the world and wisdom that comes from God.
Filmmaker/videographer Evan Lanier shares stories of traveling around the world and witnessing faith, hope, and happiness in the places he least expected to find them.
As men, we often pride ourselves on what we know. We devour books and podcasts, sharpen our skills, and chase information, believing it will make us stronger, more capable, more complete. And yet, even as knowledge helps us achieve more, many of us still feel a nagging emptiness inside. Why? Because knowledge alone was never meant to be our highest pursuit. It sharpens the mind, but it doesn’t shape the heart. It helps us make a living, but it can’t teach us how to truly live. What every man needs is godly wisdom — the kind that not only informs our decisions but transforms our character. Without it, we end up smart but not steady, informed but not truly wise.

Rebekah and Gabe Lyons, authors of the book The Fight for Us, talk about their marriage journey, what prompted them to write a book together, and the lessons they’ve learned that they believe every couple should hear.

Long story short, I remained on the streets for two years before going to prison, where I served four of an eight-year sentence. While in the county jail, God spoke to me. I began to read the Bible—the old KJV—starting in the Old Testament, even though I didn’t understand much of what I was reading. But God made sure I had everything I needed to get to know Him, including time.
I’ve now been out for over ten amazing years, and all I can say is this: God is good all the time.
Pastor, author, and mental health advocate Will Hutcherson unpacks the science behind teenagers’ anxiety and emotional outbursts—and equips dads with practical tools to connect with their kids more deeply and compassionately.
I could have really used this a year ago, and I’m so thankful God has brought it into my life now. What a blessing to be part of something that helps men who are struggling. I’m praying God uses The Redeemed—and me—to reach more men, raise up more leaders, and open even greater opportunities to do His work.
Colorado pastor Joshua Czufin talks with Nate Dewberry about pushing through personal hardship and moving past hesitation to fully engage in spiritual communities.
As Christian men, we’re in a battle. Not one marked by bullets, but by soul-threatening enemies like temptation, spiritual apathy, fear, and isolation. The war we fight is unseen, but the stakes are eternal, making it all the more critical that we surround ourselves with brothers who refuse to let any man fall behind.
