Season 4, Episode 20 is a raw, unfiltered talk where host Michael Bodine steps behind the mic alone to tackle one of the most relentless battles men face today: “Lust vs. Love – rewiring desire in a hyper‑sexualized world.” Michael doesn’t posture or preach from a distance—he’s a man who has fought for purity in the trenches, who knows what it costs to guard your eyes, your heart, and your marriage when the world is engineered to pull you off course.

As a husband, a father, and an executive with Men of Valor, he brings the weight of lived conviction, not theory. In this episode it’s honest, it’s gritty, and it calls men to stop settling for counterfeit intimacy and start pursuing the kind of love that actually transforms them.

Season 4, Episode 19 brings a powerful and unexpected twist as host Floyd Ogle sits down with a surprise guest—his wife, Stephanie Ogle, a woman whose courage, compassion, and worship‑driven heart have shaped countless lives in her community.

Together they step straight into one of the most hidden battles men face: “Porn, shame, and silence – why secrecy keeps men stuck.” Stephanie’s voice adds a rare and needed perspective—bold, honest, and anchored in both truth and grace. As a nurse, a worship leader, and a woman who fiercely values family, she refuses to tiptoe around the hard conversations that are destroying marriages, numbing men’s spirits, and suffocating their worship. This episode calls men to drag secrecy into the light, confront the shame that keeps them isolated, and rediscover the freedom that comes when confession meets compassion.

Season 4, Episode 18 goes straight at a tension every godly man feels but rarely names. Host Travis Watson sits down with Eric Stewart—a pastor, a leader of men, a husband, a father, and a son who has spent his life serving without surrendering his strength. Together they unpack this week’s theme, “Serving Without Becoming Soft or Silent,” confronting the lie that following Jesus means shrinking back, smoothing edges, or staying quiet to keep the peace. The world doesn’t need quieter men, it needs obedient men who refuse to lose their voice, their backbone, or their God‑given authority.

Together they dive into this week’s challenge, “Take Responsibility; Refuse Making Excuses,” confronting the quiet ways men surrender authority, avoid ownership, or hide behind blame. Randal brings the kind of bold, unapologetic passion that calls men higher, drawing from his years of ministry and the daily grind of leading his home with integrity. This episode pushes men to stop outsourcing their influence, step into the weight of their calling, and embrace the kind of responsibility that strengthens families, churches, and the next generation.

Host Gordon West sits down with Brent Taylor—a man who doesn’t just talk about responsibility but lives it in the trenches of family, community, and ministry. Together they tackle the week’s bold topic, “Why Some Men Dominate and Others Disappear Into the Shadows,” pulling apart the quiet forces that shape a man’s presence, courage, and calling. Brent’s life is a case study in choosing the hard path on purpose, showing up when it’s inconvenient, and serving with a faithfulness that refuses to fade into the background. This episode challenges men to confront the habits, fears, and excuses that keep them small—and invites them to step into the kind of strength that builds homes, churches, and brotherhoods that last.
