The Men in the Arena podcast is designed for Christian men in the stress bubble of life: married, with kids, building your career and trying to follow God and lead your family well. We'll help you become your best version, equipping you to honor God in your marriage, parenting, work, church and community!

Monday's podcast is a high-octane interview with an expert in the realm of masculinity and Christian manhood, with authors like John Eldredge, Gary Chapman, Gene Getz, Patrick Morely, and Emerson Eggerich. We read their books and boil down their teachings into a powerful interview to help you learn from their expertise.

Thursday's podcast is Equipping Men in Ten - a ten-minute, laser-focused teaching from Jim Ramos to help you become your best version of a man.

Your host is bestselling author and speaker Jim Ramos. Jim has authored 9 books, including the bestseller 'Strong Men Dangerous Times: 5 Essentials Every Man Must Possess to Change His World', 'Tell Them: What Great Fathers Tell Their Sons and Daughters', ‘The Field Guide: A Bathroom Book for Men’, and the 5-book Strong Men Study Guide men's small group curriculum. Jim's high-energy storytelling and conviction will call you out, build you up, and motivate you to change.

The Men in the Arena are calling you into the Arena of manhood. We're calling you out of the faceless, nameless bleachers, and calling you UP to be the best version of you. Because when a man gets it, everyone wins.

Moving Away From Performance Based Religion w/ Wayne Jacobsen EP 265

Aug 1, 2019

Wayne Jacobsen unpacks his book, He Loves Me with Jim Ramos. Are you stuck in thinking do good, get good, do bad get bad? Wayne helps men look at their relationship with Jesus completely different. Not in a way that you are trying to good. 

As an author and speaker Wayne travels the world helping people find freedom from performance-based religion, so they can embrace a relationship with God deeply rooted in his affection for them.  His most popular titles include He Loves Me:  Learning to Live in the Father's Affection, So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore, Finding Church, In Season, and A Man Like No Other. He was also co-writer and publisher of The Shack, which sold over twenty-four million copies worldwide. A former pastor, Wayne now hosts Lifestream.org, which provides resources for spiritual growth and a podcast at TheGodJourney.comto encourage people thinking outside the box of religious obligation. Both have inspired many to a more vibrant faith and a greater understanding of living in the church Jesus is building in the world. He has been married to Sara for 44 years and lives in Southern California where they enjoy their adult children and grandchildren.
