Summary
What if the biggest battle you’re fighting isn’t around you, but inside your own head?
In this episode, Jerrad gets real about the lies men quietly believe every day—the voices that whisper (or shout), “You’re not enough, you’ll never change, you’re unlovable, you don’t matter.” Drawing from personal struggles, conversations with friends, and the truth of Scripture, he unpacks how to recognize these destructive thoughts and replace them with what God actually says.
With insight from John 8:44, Romans 8:1, 2 Corinthians 5:17, and Ephesians 2:10, you’ll discover:
- The 10 most common lies men believe—and how they quietly shape our marriages, parenting, and walk with God
- Why these lies don’t just stay in your head but impact your words, actions, and relationships
- How Satan, the father of lies, plants accusations that erode your identity in Christ
- The practical, biblical way to combat lies—not with pep talks or hype—but with the Word of God and gospel-centered community
- Why truth spoken by brothers in Christ can break through lies when self-talk can’t
Whether you’ve felt the sting of shame, the weight of failure, or the loneliness of “I have to do this on my own,” this episode will help you step back onto the solid ground of God’s truth and live as the healed man He created you to be.
