Are you living in alignment with your purpose? Many men don't know that they were made for a three-part purpose and today on The Next Stage Podcast for Men, Rob Stout talks about a man aligning himself with the purpose the God chartered for him in Genesis 1:28. This is God's powerful, transformative mandate for a man to fill, subdue, and rule by producing good things, establishing order, and governing over that order.

The Next Stage Podcast for Men is a no-nonsense, bi-weekly audio and video podcast helping a man live a life of purpose, born out of his identity as a man created in God's image.
