Show Notes:

Joy as a Man’s Strength

• Scripture: Luke 2:10-11, Nehemiah 8:10, Philippians 4:4

• • • Joy is a force – “the joy of the Lord is your strength”
    • Advent joy is rooted in promise, not circumstance
    • A man’s joy becomes his family’s shelter
  • Jesus’ Joy in Hard Places

• Scripture: Hebrews 12:2

• • “For the joy set before him…” — His joy enables endurance
  • Joy anchors preservation
  • Advent declares joy that darkness cannot steal
    • Joy comes from a heart aligned with God.
    • It’s the natural overflow of a Spirit-filled life.

Show Notes:

• Peace as a Man’s Courage:
  • Scripture: Isaiah 26:3; John 14:27; Luke 2:14
  • Peace is not passive; it’s active against fear and disorder
  • Men are called to be peacemakers- not peacekeepers?
• How Jesus Models Courageous Peace:
  • He confronts storms and stills them (Mark 4:35-41)
  • He confronts demons and frees the oppressed (Mark 5:1-20)
  • He confronts sin and brings forgiveness (Matthew 4:17)
  • Peace begins with an internal mastery through the Spirit
• Practicing Advent Peace:
  • Protecting our homes from distraction and violence (both spiritual and emotional)
  • Confession being a weekly rhythm
  • Practicing gentle strength
  • Invitation instead of escalation

ADVENT SPECIAL: Hope 2025 - We will be doing 30 min episodes to close out each week of Advent and tasting wine instead of whisky.

Show Notes:

• Hope as Man’s First Calling
  • Scripture: Isaiah 9:2–7; Romans 4:18–21
    • Men are called to see what isn’t visible yet and trust God anyway
    • Abraham “hoped against hope” - Is this where spiritual leadership begins?
    • Hope is vision & waiting - two things that have been stripped away.
• Joseph’s Model of Strength
  • Scripture: Matthew 1:18–25
    • Joseph receives a call he didn’t ask for.
    • God tells him “Do not fear.”
    • Joseph responds by:
      • Listening
      • Obeying
      • Protecting sacrificially
• How do we have Hope in this season?
  • Anchor yourself in Scripture.
  • “Long Obedience in the Same Direction”
  • Leading your family in confidence, not arrogance or bravado
