Most #menoffaith say they #trust God, but very few prove it. In this episode, I sit down with Jacob Cokely to confront one of the fiercest battlegrounds in manhood today...generosity. Not the soft, comfortable idea of “giving when it’s convenient,” but the biblical call to #surrender that exposes the truth of a man’s heart.
Jacob shares the moment twelve years ago when God told him to give away #everything he had. He only had $500 left to his name. He obeyed. Nothing happened immediately. No miracle. No sudden breakthrough. But that act of obedience launched a life of radical faith that every Catholic man needs to hear.
Throughout this #conversation we uncover the spiritual warfare behind money, fear, and self-protection. Scripture warns us that a divided #heart poisons a man’s soul. Jesus demands total trust. And the saints, especially St. Joseph, model a quiet, disciplined obedience that transforms entire families.
This episode challenges men to reject the spirit of scarcity, step out of passivity, and embrace the mission God has for them. Generosity is not merely about #finances. It is about surrendering your time, your gifts, your talents, your energy, and your willingness to act the moment God prompts you. Jacob reminds us that Christ Himself embodied total self-gift. If Catholic men want to reclaim their homes, their marriages, and their spiritual authority, they must follow Him into sacrificial generosity.
Toward the end of the episode, I issue a direct and non-negotiable challenge:
**Take one uncomfortable step of generosity this week.**
Not tomorrow. Not when things calm down. Now. This is spiritual warfare, and the enemy uses fear and greed to keep men weak. Break the chain.
