On EP. 133 Garret talks about the importance of mentoring the next generation. When we look at the life of Moses, we know that Joshua was the man that Moses poured into. Moses knew that the mission that God had given him was going to last well beyond him. Leadership is mentoring the next generation. We have to have a willingness, as leaders, to spend time and develop others. And not just develop the bottom line.

Mentoring The Next Generation (EP. 133)

Scott Davis is back on the pod this week as he closes out our series on Influence. What is influence? Influence is the power or ability to change or affect someone or something. Last week we talked about influence specialized, and today we talk about influence capitalized. How can I best use my influence for God's glory? For you to help others to grow, you have to be growing yourself. Having a nurturing attitude is huge to capitalizing your influence. People are influenced most by other people who make them feel best about themselves. To become a person of influence you must come alongside people and get involved in their lives. You can teach people what you know, but you can only reproduce who you are – that's influence.

This month we start our series on “The Four Man-Killers” that will knock men off their adventure to know God and their purpose. Week 1 we are talking about Overcoming Fear. What do you fear? What is something that keeps you from reaching your potential as a husband, father and leader? The fears that consistently sit at the top of the list are: fear of failing, fear of being perceived as weak, fear of being incompetent. Why is fear an issue for men? There are so many examples of men being afraid to respond to what God is calling them to in the Bible. You are not alone. Men, how can we overcome these fears?

#1 – Recognize and name them – dig deeper into the causes
#2 – Bring to the Lord, examine them with Him
#3 – Be honest, vulnerable with Him and others
#4 – Get accountability, resources to deal with what you can control

The Four-Man Killers: Part 1 Overcoming Fear (EP. 199)

This week we continue our series on "The Four Man-Killers" that will knock men off their adventure to know God and their purpose. Week 2 we talked about Overcoming Apathy, this week we talk about Lust. This easily could be the #1 man-killer on the list, but often the least talked about. Lust is NOT just pornography, but here are some major stats on pornography: 12% of all the internet sites are porn sites, 90% of kids ages 8-16 have viewed porn, 70% of men ages 18-34 visit a porn site each month. Why is lust such a trap and temptation for us men? What are you desiring in your heart, what are you pursuing with your thoughts? That's what lust is, it starts in your mind.

What are the reasons men don't experience freedom in this area?

#1 - We don’t talk about it, we do it alone
#2 - It is a mental illness/addiction for many
#3 - Focus only on behavior modification vs. deeper causes of mental/social/spiritual issues that we’re masking

The Four Man-Killers: Part 3 Overcoming Lust (EP. 201)

This week we close out our Faith Conversations for Men Series as we talk about man's highest calling, being the spiritual leader of your home. What does it mean to be the spiritual leader of your house? Are you modeling your faith well for your wife and kids? Ephesians 5 calls us to, "Love your wives as Christ loved the church." Being the spiritual leader of your home is the highest calling you have as a man! Men, take this role as the spiritual leader of your home serious. The responsibility is huge, but you don't have to hit a home run on day one. If you feel as if you don't know where to start or feel like you've messed it up in the past, it's not too late to try again. Failure is NOT final. God has a vision for your home and he wants you to tap into that vision. Ask God what that vision is and pray for that. Secular culture demeans men in a lot of ways, especially the role of a man in the home. Let's recapture God's design for us as men!

Four Practical tips for being the spiritual leader in your home:

Self Evaluate – Be honest with yourself and where you are at in this area
Ask Your Wife – Get your wife's viewpoint on where you are at
Find a Mentor – You can't do this on your own, find a mentor to guide and encourage you
Start Small – Pray at the dinner table, read bible stories to your kids, pray with your wife

Men Are Called To Be Spiritual Leaders (EP. 211)

Ryan and Tony are back for Week 4 of The Friend Series as we wrap up the month talking about mentorship. One-to-one mentorship is at the heart of what we do at Men of Iron. We believe every man should be involved in a mentorship. Tony shares his journey of how having a mentor has greatly impacted his life. Men, we all have purpose and finding that purpose is easier when you have another man walking alongside you. Mentors hold you accountable, challenge you, and encourage you to be the best man you can be. We all need accountability in our lives, we can't do it on our own. Getting involved in a mentorship will have a generational impact. If you don't know how to find a mentor, think of a friend in your life who is a season or two ahead of you. Ask that friend to mentor you and see what happens. If you need some help finding a mentor or protege, we would love to help. Apply today at www.menofiron.org/strong27. Your life will benefit from having a mentor.

How Mentorship Changed My Life (EP. 224)

The Men of Iron BODcast is back for Week 3 with Justin and Roman! This week we are talking about the dangers of fitness becoming an idol. "Whatever you do, do it ALL for the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31. If you don't view your fitness and body through a God-centered lens, it can quickly become an idol. This happens when you start putting your identity in your looks, or what you can accomplish through fitness, instead of God. What are some red flags to tell if you are making fitness an idol?

#1 - Spending too much time at the gym that it takes away from God or your family
#2 - If it doesn't bring you a healthy excitement and joy

When we talk about fitness becoming an idol there are two sides. There are men who spend too much time working out and men who don't spend any time or enough time working out. The overall mortality rate is 41 percent higher for men than women, and it’s higher for men for 8 out of 10 leading causes of death—including heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes (Indiana State University Report). There are probably more men listening on the "I don't prioritize my fitness" side of the coin. Men, God believes that you are worth it, you can do it. God wants to use your physical body for the relationships around you – for your wife, kids, neighbors, friends. It starts with building healthy habit. As we read in 1 Corinthians 6:19, "You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."

Fitness matters because of the Gospel, you were bought at a price, so honor God with your body. If you have struggled with your fitness for years it can feel overwhelming or intimidating to know where to start. We would love to help you on your fitness journey, reach out to us today and let us be a resource for you! https://menofiron.org/contact-us/

Ryan and Colton are back for Week 4 of the Fatherhood Series as we talk about loving your wife and how that impacts fatherhood. Loving your wife is an essential ingredient in who you are as a father. Your marriage is a critical part in your legacy journey. The way that you love your wife is the first love that your kids see. When you love your wife well, you bring security to your marriage and to your household. You may think your kids are too young to notice, but they feel the pulse of the household. It is God's design for your family that you would have a strong marriage with your wife. Men, continue to invest in your marriage and pursue your wife. Your kids are watching. The way you treat your wife is a major part of your legacy and how your kids will remember you. I want my kid to look back on their my wife and I's marriage and aspire to have a marriage like that.

Justin and Tony join the pod for the month of August as we dive into Overcoming Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. It's a topic and struggle that the Church and men in general have a hard time talking about. This episode we are talking about How Sexual Addiction Rewires the Brain. God designed us for intimacy and connection. That design is broken when we replace healthy relationships and things with unhealthy relationships. Pornograpy creates a chemical dependency. It's proven that sexual addiction actually changes and rewires your brain. When we continue in the same addiction/pattern, the neurons form in that direction and create a real visible path in your brain. Our brains start to depend on the highs that are given from these addictions. If you are struggling with sexual addiction, you have to know the science behind it and understand how your brain operates. You have to rewire your brain, to rewire means to stop going down the old path and start going down a new path. Men, whatever you are struggling with, there is freedom. It is possible! But remember, you can't do it on your own. Find accountability – confess to a mentor or friend and allow him to hold you accountable.

Porn is Ruining Your Brain (EP. 234)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

Justin and Tony are back on the pod for Week 2 as we continue our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about How Porn is Ruining Your Marriage. Stats say nearly 40% of married men seek out illicit images on a regular basis. 56% of marriages that end in divorce at least one spouse was obsessed with porn. Pornography is part of the picture but not all of it when it comes to sexual addiction. A lot of men fail to admit that they have a sexual addiction. If you keep going back to whatever your thing is, that's an addiction. Jesus says in Matthew 5:27, when you look at a woman lustfully you have already committed adultery in your heart. Jesus raises the standard. It starts with a look and can easily lead to other things. What is that look going to cost you? Your addiction to porn leads to objectifying woman, including your wife. You are ultimately measuring your wife up against these images on the screen. Sexual addiction is self-focused. The more we are lusting after things we want, we are not going after the things God wants. We are designed for connection and intimacy with God and others. Men, don't hide it anymore. It is ruining your marriage. You cannot overcome sexual addiction on your own.

Porn is Ruining Your Marriage (EP. 235)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

Justin and Tony are back on the pod for Week 3 as we continue our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about Pastors and Porn and how pornography greatly affects Christian leaders and the Church. Statistics say that 50-57% of pastors admit they struggle with pornography. So why are we not having conversations about sexual addiction in the church? One, it is a "taboo" topic and an uncomfortable and messy topic. Pastors and churches are afraid to admit it and talk about it that it is an issue. For pastors specifically, it is a struggle that IF they admit it could jeopardize everything. Another issue is some churches are afraid if they talk about the uncomfortable issues, people will stop showing up. To the pastors, church leaders and men listening to this, the Church is a place for the broken. We can't build towards what God has for us if we are pretending and faking. There is freedom in being vulnerable and being transparent! James 5:16 says, "Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." James 5:16 (NIV). The power of not being real is keeping us from all that God has for us. It's time to confess, get accountability and work towards freedom.

Why Aren’t We Talking About Porn in the Church? (EP. 236)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate
 
Justin and Tony are back on the pod for the final week of our series on Lust, Sexual Addiction and Pornography. Today we are talking about fighting lust, not porn. What exactly is lust? Lust is a strong, intense desire for something. Lust replaces God's design for intimacy and connection with sinful desires that are outside of His creation. When we get outside of those bounds, it leads to death and destruction. We take what God intended to be natural and we change it for our selfish gain. How are you honoring the image of God in other people? Remember, when you look at a woman lustfully, that is God's daughter. "I've mad a covenant with my eyes." Job 31:1 (NIV) Ultimately, our eyes connect to our brain, our thoughts connect to our heart and desires. Lust starts with what we see and think. It's not just a physical thing, lust is a bigger deal than just pornography. We have to approach the issue holistically – mental, emotional, spiritual, etc. Despite all the messiness and brokenness you may be facing, there is grace! God wants the best for YOU.

Justin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue the series on sexual addiction. When we are going through a season of addiction if feels impossible to focus on our relationship with God. No matter what you are going through, don't delay getting right with God. We know it is NOT easy trying to stop a sinful behavior on your own. We need others and we need God to overcome it. The closer we are with God the more He will be these natural desires into alignment. You are not going to be able to overcome it without God. Be open about your struggles, don't be afraid to share your story. Having another man walk alongside you and hold you accountable is crucial to recovery.

Why Do I Struggle with Lust: A Candid Conversation (EP. 238)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

Justin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue Part 2 of our conversation on sexual addiction. "I always felt like a fraud as a Christian struggling with sexual addiction." How often as men are we chasing after the temporary satisfaction in life and not the eternal? We expect God to give us what We want, not for us to chase after what God wants for us. Like any other relationship in our lives, our relationship with God takes time and intentionality. We must actively choose to invest time with God. When was the last time you spent time with the Lord? It doesn't happen passively. If you want to find freedom from sexual addiction, you can't do it on your own, and you can't do it without God.

Chasing God, Not Temporary Satisfaction (EP. 239)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

Justin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue Part 3 of our conversation on sexual addiction. Today we talk about making God a priority and how it will change everything! When you put God first you will start to see things differently. It is NOT going to be an immediate fix, but there is hope on the other side. Hebrews 11:6 says, He rewards those who diligently seek Him." Men, it takes intentionality. It takes making your relationship with the Father a priority. Be honest with Him about where you are at. Admitting your sin is the first step in the healing process. Put the proper guardrails in place, get accountability in your life. There is only one source for true peace and joy. There is freedom in sharing the truth, don't hide it anymore!

How Making God a Priority Changes Everything (EP. 240)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

Justin and Tony are back on the pod as we continue Part 4, the final part of our conversation on sexual addiction. Justin talks about battling his addiction for years, the key to finding freedom was bringing other people into the journey. Relationships and accountability are key to finding freedom and healing. There is something powerful about relationships within the body of Christ. Men, you need accountability in your life. Be authentic and real with the Lord and others. When you confess your sins to one another there is forgiveness there. There is a path to freedom that God wants you to take, and it is so much better than the path you are on. But YOU have to be the one to pursue it and you have to pursue it with others alongside you. When we live intentionally on this path, we start to see things how God sees things. From the very beginning we have been promised something so good, a relationship with God. So put down the old and pick up what is truly good, God. Whatever you are struggling with that consumes your mind, put that time and energy into God and see what He does. The Lord wants what's best for you, but He is not going to force you into it.

Today Colton is on the pod as we begin a new series, "The Restoration Series." This 5-part series gives us a glimpse into the lives of 5 different men and their stories of restoration. This week we sit down with Caesar as he shares his faith journey. Growing up in East Los Angeles Caesar attended church as a kid with his aunt and uncle. As Caesar got older he stopped going to church as his faith in God slowly started to fade. "I felt a sense of void and emptiness, no point or purpose in my life." But God kept pursuing Caesar. Through a conversation with his sister on the opposite side of the country, Caesar ended up in Pennsylvania. A change of course that would alter his life forever. Despite a strong desire to go back home and continue in his old ways, Caesar decided to stay. Through the prodding of his sister and small steps of faith, Caesar's life was restored. Often times God will remove us from situations that are unhealthy, but it takes action on our part. God is always working and God is always restoring. Sometimes we have to look back to see what God did for us. Stay tuned for the next story of restoration next week!

Chad hosts this episode of "The Restoration Series," as we hear Zack's powerful story of transformation from a life of despair and selfishness to faith and restoration. Growing up in Arizona with a single mom who avoided religion, Zack left home at 18 to join the military. After two tours in Afghanistan, he returned home struggling with PTSD and wanting to end his life. "The one time was really bad, I was sitting in a tub with a gun to my head and couldn't pull the trigger." In a moment of desperation, Zack sought answers from any religion he could find before his wife gifted him his first Bible. Zack knew if something didn't change he wasn't going to be around much longer. Through a business meeting, Zack met Dan and their conversation quickly turned to God. It was this life-changing conversation with Dan that would put Zack on a new trajectory. Weeks later an encounter with the Holy Spirit changed EVERYTHING. Zack prayed his first prayer to God in his kitchen and dropped to his knees. "Looking back I know it was an encounter with the Holy Spirit, I felt all of my sin lifted off of my shoulders."

Now, Zack mentors other men, shares his faith with non-believers, and has even led family members to Christ. His faith journey has also strengthened his marriage, which had been strained by past mistakes. "Knowing what God did for me in such a dark spot, I know he can do it for other people."

This 5-part series gives us a glimpse into the lives of 5 different men and their stories of restoration. Stay tuned for the another story of restoration next week!

In this episode of The Restoration Series, Colton returns to the podcast as we sit down with Roman, who shares his journey of restoration. Growing up in a Christian family, Roman seemed to have it all together on the outside—great family, successful in sports, popular, and doing well in school. It was during his junior year of high school that Roman started chasing after the wrong things. A relationship with a girlfriend resulted in a pregnancy and ultimately leading to a regretful decision. The pain of this decision led Roman to carry deep shame, depression, and guilt for years and caused him to harm himself.

Thanks to a prayer warrior of a mom and a loving father, Roman’s journey of restoration and healing would begin. His mom discovered what had happened, and his parents met him with grace and love instead of anger—mirroring the grace of God. “I told my parents about everything that had happened, it was such a weight off my shoulders.”

Around this time Roman also found a mentor in his coach, they started meeting weekly and doing life together. Roman’s faith and relationship with God starting growing exponentially. Through his restoration story, Roman now has a heart for mentoring young men, helping them avoid the same mistakes and experience the love and grace of God.

In today's episode of "The Restoration Series," Steve interviews Chad, who opens up about his journey through feelings of failure as a husband, father, and provider. He was raised in a home where faith was at the center, thanks to his mom, but after leaving home would be faced with significant trials that put his faith to the test.

After high school Chad left home, away from family and friends, where he deepened his relationship with God and gained a clearer understanding of himself. During an Easter break, he felt God prompting him to stay at school, which led to a job opportunity in Los Angeles that shaped his career. After marrying his wife, Amy, the couple moved to Atlanta to pursue freelance work, but they eventually returned to Pennsylvania in 2020, just as the pandemic hit. With job prospects dwindling, Chad experienced deep anger and frustration with God.

"As a father I felt so pathetic and useless, I couldn't provide for my family. I was bitter and angry towards God."

However, the support of friends and co-workers helped him find healing and restore his faith. Chad shares about the power of mentorship, which can begin with a simple conversation, his faith foundation has been a guiding force throughout his life. His hope is to leave a legacy as a man who put Jesus, his wife, and his children above all else. Chad’s story is a testament to God’s ongoing work of restoration.

In this closing episode of The Restoration Series, Phil shares his powerful journey from a difficult family background toward healing and transformation through faith. Raised in a tough family marked by alcoholism, lies, and money laundering, Phil often felt out of place. His life took a pivotal turn when he met his future wife as a teenager, whose influence—and that of her family—led him to faith in Jesus.

"If I hadn't met my wife and the Lord, I think I would have committed suicide."

After decades of shoving stuff under the rug, the early years of marriage and fatherhood for Phil started to bring messy things to the surface. Forcing Phil and his wife to work through past wounds. It was through this season that Phil started to understand the heart of God and what it truly means to have a Father. God used those experiences to show Phil what it looks like to lead his family. With the support of mentors, he learned to lead his family from a place of humility and service rather than power and control. Walking closely with the Lord Phil is seeing God's heart and the good plans He has for him and his family.

"He's rescued me from crazy situations and using those for heart change." 

Phil's heart for the Lord is evident in this conversation. He is actively pursuing the Lord and what God has for him. He has broken a generation cycle and wants to leave a legacy of a man who loved the Lord and ferociously pursued Him. A legacy of advancing the Kingdom.

Breaking Generational Cycles | Phil’s Restoration Story (EP. 246)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

In today's episode, we're kicking off a new series called The Church Needs Men Series, exploring the vital role of men in ministry. Paul Andrulonis, Associate Pastor at Sailors Union Grace Church in Maryland, joins us for Week 1. Growing up in a ministry family, Paul shares insights on why men are called to lead, serve, and live with purpose in the church. He emphasizes, “We must focus on people, not just the work,” and how essential it is for men to disciple and train others in their faith.

Men have a unique calling to lead, care for families, and take steps of faith—even when it’s uncomfortable. Often, men are hesitant because they fear vulnerability and the costs of leadership, but Jesus emulated for us what servant leadership looks like. Paul discusses how culture increasingly downplays the importance of men, but the church must counter this by affirming men’s roles and encouraging them to step up.

"Men are an integral part of the church and it's important for us to focus on them."

A crucial part of men's ministry is mentorship and identifying who can mentor and disciple and who needs mentorship. For young men, having godly mentors to answer hard questions and help navigate life stages—from new jobs to marriage and fatherhood—is invaluable. Church leaders play an essential role in identifying men who need discipleship. Young men looking for more mature leaders is important but godly men looking for young men to mentor is just as important. We need to think through the lends of who can disciple me and who can I disciple. It has to be that reciprocation of discipleship, that's what Jesus emulated while he was here. That is a huge part of men's ministry, being discipled and discipling others. Discipleship and mentorship never ends, it is a lifestyle. 

As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church. Stay tuned for Week 2 of the The Church Needs Men Series.

Why Men in the Church Matter (EP. 247)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

In this episode, Lead Pastor Mike Snedeker from Community Evangelical Church (CEC) in Sinking Spring, PA, shares insights on the importance of men’s ministry and the transformative role that Men of Iron has played in the church. For 13 years, CEC has partnered with Men of Iron to help men re-engage in church leadership and live out their biblical roles. Pastor Mike observes that modern culture often pulls men away from faith and into careers and hobbies, leading to a disengagement from church.

Through mentorship programs like Strong27, CEC has seen men prioritize their faith, spend time in Scripture, and grow in leadership, ultimately transforming their families and communities. Mike highlights that intentional discipleship, modeled after Jesus' example of mentoring a few to influence many, is essential for church growth. He encourages men to consider who they can mentor and emphasizes that true change begins with placing God at the center of one’s life.

"When you orient your life to the things of scripture, that becomes the drive of your life instead of the other way around."

Pastor Mike concludes by affirming that Men of Iron has been pivotal in CEC’s journey, helping them focus on disciple-making rather than attracting large numbers. This approach has deeply impacted their church culture, aligning them more closely with Jesus' call for the church to equip and send out disciples.

As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church. Stay tuned for Week 3 of the The Church Needs Men Series.

In this episode of the Men and the Church series, we’re joined by Kevin Wishard from LCBC in Lancaster, PA. Kevin connected with Men of Iron through LCBC's search for impactful small group material and found A Man's Game Plan (https://www.menofiron.org/game-plan). LCBC's city campus has doubled its men's ministry through grassroots efforts, focusing on engaging and connecting with men. As they focus on equipping men, they want them to understand that they are the spiritual leaders of the home, but many men have a hard time seeing this. Helping men understand their responsibility as spiritual leaders positively impacts families and future generations.

"Some guys don't really believe they are the spiritual leader of their home."

We dive into practical strategies for helping men grow spiritually, from setting SMART goals in faith, family, friends, fitness, and finances to building accountability through mentoring. Kevin emphasizes the importance of meeting men where they are and creating trust to help them take their next step in their faith journey. Men need other men to encourage them and hold them accountable. 

As we continue this series, we’ll explore how a lifestyle of mentorship and discipleship not only builds stronger men but a stronger church. Stay tuned for Week 4 of the The Church Needs Men Series.

The Role of Men in Strengthening the Church Featuring Kevin Wishard (EP. 249)

Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate

In this episode of our Men and the Church series, we talk with Dave Towers from Community Fellowship Church (CFC) in Lancaster, PA. As the leader of men’s ministry at CFC, Dave shares his passion for investing in men, building leadership, and creating opportunities for connection and growth.

We explore practical ways to engage men in the church by offering a space for men to have fellowship and deepen relationships. "We don't want to just preach at them, they get that enough, we want to give them a chance to talk and connect with other men." Dave emphasizes the importance of mentorship and how small group events can lead into mentorship opportunities for men.

"We don't want our men's ministry to grow because the church grows, we want it to be strong enough that it helps the church grow."

Men often don't realize how much they need other men in their life. Building a strong men's ministry gives guys an opportunity to find that and recognize the need for community. We want men to be more than just a Sunday morning Christian. As we get guys into mentorships, we don't want their growth to just stay within the church walls. We want to see men being discipled and then going out into their community to make more disciples. By creating opportunities for men to build meaningful relationships, the church becomes a catalyst for transformation—not just within its walls, but in the community and beyond.

This month we are so excited to kick off The Wives Restoration Series, a four-part series giving us a glimpse into the lives of 4 different wives and their side of their husband's restoration story. This week we sit down with Nyasha, as she shares her journey through dating, deaths in the family, and a thriving marriage with her husband Cesar.

Nyasha grew up in the church and later attended Lancaster Bible College. Through her best friend, she met Cesar, and their story began. Despite coming from different ends of the country and different upbringings, their faith in God ultimately drew them together. 

Their relationship blossomed, with Caesar demonstrating spiritual leadership even while dating. But life wasn’t without challenges. Caesar faced deep loss, and together they endured a difficult season in their marriage. Through prayer and encouragement, Nyasha reminded him of his calling and God’s faithfulness.

Men's of Iron's Anchoredman Bootcamp (menofiron.org/product/anchoredman-leaderpack) became a pivotal experience for Caesar, helping him grow spiritually and connect with other men. Moving from California to Pennsylvania, Caesar found it hard to form close friendships, but this program became a bridge, strengthening him as a husband, father, and leader.

"When men are committed to leading well the ripple effect it has on their families and communities."

Join us for Part 2 of The Wives Restoration Series featuring Heather Zeamer! A four-part series giving us a glimpse into the lives of 4 different wives and their side of their husband's restoration story.

Heather Zeamer, the wife of Men of Iron's founder Bryan Zeamer, shares her faith journey, interwove with intentional mentorships. From the early struggles in her parents' marriage to the transformative mentorship of a neighbor, Heather witnessed firsthand the power of mentorship and coaching. 

Heather shares how Bryan's faith journey began during a wrestling trip to Hungary and how mentors like his dad and Bob shaped his life. Bryan’s holy discontent—his passion for helping men find their purpose—was the spark that led to the birth of Men of Iron. Men of Iron has transformed countless lives, restoring marriages and families, and mentoring generations of men.

Heather reflects on the impact of seeing people through God’s eyes and how Men of Iron continues to redeem broken backstories, helping men live with purpose and intention. When men live out their God-given greatness, families thrive, and culture is changed.

A Vision For Redeemed Men With Heather Zeamer (EP. 252)

Join us for Part 3 of The Wives Restoration Series with Jen Rhoads! A four-part series giving us a glimpse into the lives of 4 different wives and their side of their husband's restoration story.

Jen grew up in a conservative religious family, knowing she was loved but never hearing it. She became a Christian at 13, motivated more by the fear of going to hell than a love for God. Marlin experienced a very similar upbringing, they met at a Bible school one summer, and would eventually get married. Early challenges in the marriage arose as they left their home church, stopped attending church altogether, and Marlin started hanging out with the wrong crowd. These unhealthy habits eventually led to Marlin asking Jen to move out.

Despite these trials, Jen's unwavering faith carried her. In 2012, after a season of separation, Marlin wanted to get back together but it wouldn't last long. After their daughter was born Jen discovered that Marlin was having an affair and now faced with the pain of a second separation. Through it all, Jen leaned on God, practicing what she calls "benevolent detachment," releasing burdens and trusting in His plan. A turning point came when she felt God promise a shift in their marriage—and in November 2014, Marlin sought to reconcile again.

Fast forward to 2020, during another rough patch, Marlin signed up for a one-to-one mentorship with Men of Iron. The mentorship transformed his life. The encouragement and camaraderie from another man helped Marlin grow as a husband, father, and spiritual leader. Today, Jen sees the fruits of this decision—their marriage has stability, their children feel the peace in their home, and Jen has found it easier to trust God.
