Caleb Zimmermann and Rodney Lossow join us as we talk about what manhood is, what is can look like, and how our culture and our sin battle against a masculinity that resembles Christ. Listen to episode 8 for an honest and open talk that will leave you encouraged and not feeling alone.

How do we teach our children morals? How do we discipline in a way that is grounded in our own faith? How and when should we forgo punishment and give our kids grace? How does our parenting mirror the biblical storyline? In episode 7 we discuss these questions and more with Stephen Gronseth. Join us as we talk about using law and gospel as dads.

In episode 6 we talk about how to not just survive living in the city as Christians but how God can use us to bring hope, healing, and life through us. Rodney Lossow joins us and shared some of his story of growing up, living, working, and raising a family here in South Minneapolis. With great humility and inspiration we'll hear about God's faithfulness in weakness and also about the ways in which He has used his people for decades here in our city in big and small ways.

In episode 5 Connor and Spencer discuss living on mission, sharing our lives and the gospel with people who don't know Jesus yet, and how discipleship is not just a one time event but rather a long-term mindset. Again and again we're seeing it take years for people to come to Christ and they do so in the context of Christian community. Check out the conversation and be encouraged in your evangelism and discipleship however it might look in your life.

We bring in Josh Williams, pastor of Restoration Hope Church in West St. Paul, and talk about God as our Heavenly Father. We hear Josh's story of growing up without a father in his life, coming to faith in his teens, and now being a father himself. Join us for some great news: God is a father to those without one, his gospel heals us from our dad wounds, and he gives us the joyful gift of being dads ourselves.

In our third episode we bring on Tyler Leeper and talk through how the gospel can impact and empower our vocations. Whether it be through building relationships, loving those God has put in our jobs, embodying the gospel, or allowing the Spirit to use our work for his glory and the good of others, the gospel has a lot to do with our 9-5.

In our second episode of this new podcast for the men of Hiawatha Church, Pastors Chris and Spencer talk about the state of porn in the world and in our church. They discuss the culture we live in, the pastoral advice they give regularly, and the hope we have in the gospel. The world says "Be strong and be worthy." However the gospel tells us we fight against lust and sin not with our own strength but rather in our weakness we turn to the one who has overcome sin, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

In our first episode of this new podcast for the men of Hiawatha Church, Connor and Spencer look at Genesis 1 and 2 and unpack the goodness of God creating us as males. This truth can give us encouragement, help us understand our identities, and lead to thankfulness rather than pride or sheepishness.
