To kick off season 6 of the Legacy Dads Podcast, we are starting with a powerful testimony. In this first half of Joe's testimony, we hear about his circumstances - where he was sinful in a sin-filled world - and how God started to work on Joe through others. Spoiler alert...it isn't Joe who gets him out of the life he was in...but it did involve Joe "letting go, and letting God." Tune in for season 6, episode 2, to hear the continuation of Joe's story and to see just how wonderfully God is able to make things happen for His glory!

Hindered Prayers
"God never answers my prayers!" Chances are, as a Christian, you've probably felt like this one time in your life. God's word contains plenty of instruction for how a husband and wife should be in relationship with each other. In this week's podcast, Dave and Dante discuss 1 Peter 3:1-7...but mostly verse 7. If you feel like your prayers aren't being heard, perhaps, as a husband, you need to dive into this verse and see where you can make some improvements!
Blind to the Gospel
Are you ready for some scripture? Dave and Dante discuss the "god of this world" that Paul talks about in 2 Corinthians - and ways that Legacy Dads can use scripture to stay in the fight, to battle the enemy, and to really fortify the defenses against the enemy who uses tried-and-true methods to keep people from hearing, and knowing, the gospel. Grab a bible and a highlighter or a notebook or journal and be ready to get some scriptural firepower in your arsenal!
Praying - It's Not Rocket Science
You’re a legacy dad (or mom, or parent, caretaker, or whatever). You’ve come to Christ and know that you’re supposed to pray. If you’re a Christian in today’s world, statistics show that we are praying less frequently, for less time, and (arguably) with less depth than in previous generations. Maybe when it comes down to it, your prayer sounds more like a prayer from a pageant contestant than someone who is trying to talk to God. If you’re in this position (or anything remotely similar), this episode is for you. Dave and Dante discuss a couple of ways to pray - the five finger method, and the ACTS method - as ways to continue to develop your prayer life.
Man Killers
Dante and Dave discuss five man-killers that are sure to take down any man who isn't properly equipped to recognize and respond. How do we deal with fear or abdication or anything in between? Listen in for some practical and biblical ways in which to protect yourself and your family from these man-killers!
