Matt and Corrie kick off their new Weekend Warrior Marriage series talking about the “why” behind the work Man Warrior King is about to do for your marriage. They discuss what marriage SHOULD look like versus what the church often teaches. Learn about the

In today’s episode, Matt hosts a conversation with special guest, Keith Gregoire, author of The Good Guy’s Guide to Great Sex. Keith and his wife Sheila have ministered to thousands of married couples through their books, podcast, blog, and live marriage

As men of the kingdom we need to learn to be disagreeable. To be willing to make people angry. To be willing to chart our own path, though not really our own, but God’s path for us. This is what Jesus modeled. In fact, this is what Jesus honors many times

Just because you say yes to following God’s mission for you does not mean that your circumstances will confirm that you’ve made the right call, or even that you’ve accurately heard God. Sometimes they will try to tell you that you’re off. You’re missing i

The surprising root of King Saul’s failure as a man and a king. And how it tries to sneak in to your life and keep you bound. Don’t let it. Get off your butt and live. Respond to God’s identity in you.

In this episode, Matt is joined by his wife Corrie for a candid conversation about sex and some of the things that we SHOULD have been taught in the church. Things that foster a fiery, passionate, desire-filled bedroom. You won’t want to miss this one.

Want to know what the Lord is speaking to men of his church RIGHT NOW? This is it. Do not abandon your purpose. Don’t let the care of the world sneak in and steal your focus and your determination to be and do who and what called has specifically designed

It’s time we stop playing so nice and so small! It’s time we stop defining God’s will by our circumstances. It’s time we stand up, get angry about something, and push back the darkness to bring his kingdom in!

Sometimes we all need a kick in the pants, a reminder that we’ve been playing the victim and letting satan ravage us. That’s what this message is. You feel stuck? You feel down on yourself? You wonder how to get out and get moving forward? Welcome.

This episode is on the Song of Solomon. If you’re married, I highly highly highly encourage you to listen. This will not be a religious and legalistic approach to the book. Yes, the book is allegorical about Jesus and the church. But also–YES, it’s a gre

Unshakeability is something we all would like more of. It’s something that most of the men I work with feel like they are lacking.
It’s not completely their fault. They’ve been lied to and led to believe that either: Unshakeability is an impossible pipe

Are you feeling weary? Bitter? In distress? In debt? Good. You’re perfect for the job in front of you. It’s time to rekindle your fire for life. To shake off the shackles that have no right to hold you.

Too often, Christian men find themselves wondering what happened to the spark, the fire, the passion in their marriage. Many feel like they still want their wives, but their wives don’t seem to want THEM anymore. And we bang our head against the wall tryi

In this Podcast episode we’re going to talk about getting our emotions into alignment with joy, confidence, thankfulness, abundance, and love–in other words, aligned with God’s heart.

We’ve bought the self-pity, defeated, lazy lie that the world is terrible anyway. That it’s only getting worse. And that the only thing that really matters is whether we are saved and whether we get someone else saved or not. But what if that’s only part

Have you ever seen–or BEEN–a man who goes out of his way to protect everyone else’s feelings at the expense of his wife’s? An ultimate symptom of being a nice guy.

Learn some life-changing and utterly surprising truths about God and how he relates with us. More than that, he sets an example for us as men as we learn to relate with others, especially our wives.

In this episode, discover God’s heart for you to use the authority that he has given you as his son. You are a man who carries his thoughts, his desires, and his words for your situation and for the people around you. But you must be all in. You must neve

In this episode we talk about the power behind having a creator’s mindset, rather than a consumer’s mindset, and why it is so crucial for your transformation that you begin to take yourself seriously.

In this podcast episode, Matt has a candid conversation with his wife Corrie about how to TRULY husband well, in a way that is strong, not needy, and actually attractive. Unfortunately, the church has largely missed these crucial marriage principles in th

Many men play the victim card when it comes to taking action in their lives. They believe that they CAN’T because God hasn’t chosen them. He’s chosen others on his A team but not them. Today, we throw that sacred cow to the ground.

Somebody just SHOW ME! Can you relate? Do you ever wish that there was a model, an example somewhere that we could look to in order to know what a REAL man looks like? Not a Christian man. Not a church-going man. Not a worldly, woman degrading, domineerin

This podcast episode is a throwback to the old old sermon by Paris Reidhead, called “Ten Shekels and a Shirt”. Inside you’ll discover the pitfall that so many of us fall into on our journey of transformation, where we become results-obsessed, instead of p

Ever feel frustrated by the fact that Christians are supposed to be “nice?” Frustrated by the fact that somehow being a Christian means that you have to be less of a man? Yeah, I was too. Until I realized–until God showed me– that there is no place for

When a man starts to live on his mission to become a mature, masculine, powerful, connected son of the Father, he finally starts creating and becoming a safe place for those around him. Unfortunately, for the untrained, this often means MORE problems aris

Too many husbands relate to their wives from a place of desperation. We’re desperate for them to like us. Desperate for them to notice our changing. Desperate for their affection. What we need is to walk in the confidence of Jesus. To be okay in the storm

Faith is not what we think. Jesus offended his disciples by his own display of faith, meanwhile calling them out for their lack of faith–even when they are coming to him, rather than to someone else. If calling out to Jesus when we are in danger isn’t fa

Sometimes following Jesus isn’t sexy. Sometimes growing into the man that you know you can be isn’t sexy. And if you’re not ready for the opposition from ALL sides, you might give up before you reach the reward. Don’t be that guy. Don’t quit. Be like Nehe

A battle cry to all men who are discouraged, defeated, and down. It’s a reminder that no matter where we are…Jesus rebuilds. And he wants to rebuild you. And he wants YOU to rebuild with him. But the choice is up to you. Will you give up? Or will you GE

In this episode, Matt interviews Matt Newberry, founder of Grounded Apparel, husband and father, overcomer of disease, and fellow Kingdom Warrior. They discuss Newberry’s story of rising up out of the ashes that the enemy would have had him stay in, fight

In this third part of the Man Warrior King Origins Series, Matt explores what it means to be a Kingdom Man versus simply a Christian man. He explores the drive that we have to truly know Jesus, not just follow a religion.

For all of the new brothers in arms who have joined the MWK movement, this podcast episode is to give you backstory…my story. It’s not just me rambling on about me, though. It’s me sharing my journey so that my story can sink its teeth into your spirit

One of the biggest pitfalls for men in their marriage is when they effectively “hide their lamp under a basket” (to use the words of Jesus in Mark 4). It sounds dumb and cheesy, but it’s far from it. This revelation on masculinity in husbanding a woman is

In this episode, Matt tells part of his story, the earliest most formative years of his life, and how God stepped in when his dad could not.

Looking again at Mark, we see Jesus set an example for us of being completely undeterred from his mission. Then, in the next chapter, Jesus gives us a cryptic, but powerful teaching on how we can be the same.

The world needs right now a movement of men who know their Identity as sons of their Father, and who know their Mission in the Kingdom. We cannot give in to trial or opposition. We must stand and continue to minister love, powerfully and confidently, in t

Another look at the example of Jesus from Mark 1 on how to be a man who is both assertive and submitted to the Father. Not swayed by circumstances, urgencies, or demands of anyone around us.

Our current culture sets us up to be weak and give up. Our current church culture encourages passivity and mediocrity. We are taught that God is in control and that we should just submit to him when circumstances don’t work out our way. We are taught that

A man growing in maturity needs to learn to accept himself. This is not a replacement for drive, for focus, for pushing toward excellence. This is simply being confident and embracing who God has made you to be. It is accepting you for you, as Jesus does.

In today’s episode you’ll get to hear the story of how a visitor listened to my morning message on how Jesus heals today, and she was instantly, miraculously healed of severe scoliosis and skull/neck structural malformation. And keep on listening for the

Most of the marriage advice we get when we Christian husbands are out looking for help is actually pretty darn useless. It leaves us feeling broken and small and like we are simply victims of some bad situation. It doesn’t help us to rebuild our marriages

You can change, men. You CAN become the man you were meant to be. You CAN live in power and confidence and strength as a covering over your family. Jesus is King and he raises up warriors. That includes you.⁠

The title says it all. Take a lesson from Nehemiah 2. Stop playing nice. Find your mission. Stick with it.

In today’s episode Matt shows you how to respond when life throws adversity at you. What steps does a Man of the Kingdom take to continue on his path in strength and in connection with Jesus? What is the right posture of your spirit? What is the right thi

On this journey where we men are running after more of the Kingdom of Heaven in our lives, we may sometimes trip. We may sometimes find that we’ve had a bad day or a bad week, or a bad couple weeks. And we wonder, am I losing all the progress I’ve made. A

There’s a teaching out there in the man improvement world that says that all of your struggles, all of your challenges, all of the broken pieces of your life that you are experiencing right now…they are here because YOU brought them here. With your thou

One of the biggest points of weakness in the life of a man is when he lives in discord with what he says he believes. As men, if we want to be solid, strong, safe, attractive, prosperous, we MUST have our actions line up with what we say we believe. We mu

If you’re anything like many, many men in the church, you’ve felt incredibly frustrated by the fact that you know a lot about God. Maybe you grew up in church and can recite every book of the Bible, all the big-hitter verses, etc. Or maybe you can’t–mayb

The life of a kingdom man is meant to be a life lived on an entirely different plain. It is meant to look, feel, sound utterly different from anything the world knows. So as you are staring down the giants in front of you right now, how will you slay them
