Welcome And Scripture Of The Week

Chris Grainger 1:43

We do this once a month. If you guys have listened to the show for a while, you kind of know this is our cadence. And what we do is we typically start at taking some of the Bible reading plans from the Bible out, and we put those on the show, particularly the ones that are do really well. And we've been blessed. Many of the plans are just guys are finding so much value and support and encouragement with them. So it's like this is one that we need to share. This is what we need to put out there because there's lots of people, lots of guys out there right now who are just managing so much, and it's so easy in the world we live in to feel overwhelmed. And I don't know about you. Um, but if you if if you ever have that feeling of overwhelmed, this hopefully is gonna be an encouragement to you. Now, the podcast on Monday, I unpacked those verses in Matthew 11. So go back and listen to that. I'm not gonna rehash that stuff, but we're just gonna keep digging into this topic and this idea of being overwhelmed and what the scriptures say about it, right? And and the first thing we're gonna consider is the lie of self-sufficiency, okay? Now in 2 Corinthians, uh it tells us my grace is sufficient for you. That's literally what it says, my grace is sufficient for you, and for my powers made perfect in weakness. And so when I start thinking about this, you know, I I have a heart for helping others, okay? And uh, I just

Free Gift And Prayer Support

Chris Grainger 3:06

do. I mean, go go ask any guys in the lion. I'm all about serving and helping and encouraging and trying to help others. But for the longest time, here's something that I've learned. Uh I hate being helped. I did, I hated being helped. Uh, and it doesn't make a lot of sense. I wrestled with it for years, but upon reflection, I can see how it became a bigger, really a bigger part of my identity when my first marriage ended. Okay. Uh, because I was in unfamiliar territory territory at that time, right? I was a newly single dad. Uh, I had two little girls that I was raising, and the last thing I wanted those little girls to see was that their daddy was scared. And I didn't want them to see that. And and during that season of life, uh, I made a vow to do it all for my daughters. And I I took it literally. I I w I did it all cooking, cleaning, carpal, uh, bass, you know, shopping, grocery, everything.

Adam Rushing 4:06

It rested on me. Right. And it was very overwhelming. Over time I learned. I actually got to be I was pretty good at it.

Chris Grainger 4:18

And then I started taking pride in it. I was taking pride in what most guys would want run from. Now, I

The Lie Of Self Sufficiency

Chris Grainger 4:24

I'm not saying I enjoyed it, but I figured it out. And one of the the weaknesses I had back in that season, when I think about it now, was fixing their hair. Now, look, if you got little boys, you ain't gotta worry about it. You can put a ball cap on them and just let them go. Little girls is different. This was new territory for me, okay? And I was I was pretty lost. Um, but I was also pretty stubborn, right? And I wanted to be self-sufficient. That's what I wanted to do. I actually found a daddy hair class, guys. I mean, they they they had this thing, they offered it at our local YMCA. I signed up for it and I was like, let's go. It was a single-day course. All you gotta do is show up, and they would give you the foundation. And and and at that point, for me, that wasn't a weakness anymore, right? I because I had the hair down. I remember even talking, uh talking, walking in, talking to that guy who was running a class. I'm like, look, bro, he was trying to teach us how to do these little ponytails and stuff. I got that figured out. I want to know how to do the else braid, okay? So if you don't know what the else braid is, God bless your ministry. But I as a dad, little a little dad girl, I needed to know how to do the else of braid. So I figured all that stuff out. All right. And from the outside, even though my marriage has failed, it seemed like I had it all together. My girls were happy, uh, the bills were being paid, life was moving forward. But I knew that that pace was not sustainable, right? And my view of asking for help really became warped big time during that season of life. And I think I robbed my daughter daughters of something. I robbed them from the opportunity to see how I lean how I chose how I could really could have leaned on God more. And what I was teaching them was that dad could do it all. Like dad was a superhero. Now, every single dad out there totally gets it. You we're all superheroes. But our we don't want our kids thinking that we have zero you know areas of deficiency, right? And I fell into the trap that NB laid out for me. And when that when that marriage ended, uh he saw me in my weakest, and I tried to fill that gap with busyness and responsibility and and and just being you know a studious father anything except acknowledging the pain and letting others come alongside me. I didn't want to do that. And as guys, it's easier to mask insecurity with task. It just is. When we're busy, we feel valued, we feel appreciated.

Adam Rushing 7:05

Our sense of self-worth climbs.

Chris Grainger 7:09

But we have to recognize to be true that our worth is never tied to our output. And when we start trying to tie our worth to our output, that's until we get it wrong. One of the greatest parts about having a relationship with Jesus Christ is knowing that he loves us right where we are. When things are going well, man, he's rocking, he's cheering us on. And when life pushes us back, he's right there beside us. His love doesn't rise and fall with our activity. No, it's rooted in the relationship that he longs to have with us from the mountaintop perspective to the valley preparation moments. So my simple encouragement to you guys please stop believing the lie that your worth to God depends on how much you can get done. Right? Stop believing that. His favor does not rest on your productivity. Believe it or not, Buttercup, it ain't all about you. He ain't asking you to prove yourself, he's asking you to trust him. Because true strength is not found in doing it all, but resting in the one that already has. Do you feel that? So look, we all have these lies about productivity that we believe from time to time. Think about the one you believe the most and surrender that to God right now. We're gonna take our first break. We'll be right back, guys. It's time to stop battling pornography, lust, and temptation alone. We're done sitting on the sidelines, seeing shame win, and hearing from guys that are fighting private wars with no backup. So we decided it's time to fight back. We have our sexual integrity support group, which is a confidential space inside the lion's den for men who are ready to step into the light and pursue real freedom. This isn't just for guys in crisis, by the way. It's for any man who's tired of the cycle, who's tired of living in secret, who's tired of saying this is gonna be the last time. Look, most guys don't need another app or some rules. They need some brothers to come alongside them to say you're not the only one. This doesn't define you. And freedom is possible. So look, inside our group, you're gonna find a confidential, judgment-free forum to engage and ask questions. You'll have honest conversations without commendation. And you'll also have a monthly call with a trusted guide. So look, this isn't just about stopping pornography. It's about becoming a man of integrity, a man aligned, a man who lives in freedom, not secrecy. And you don't have to clean yourself up first to come. You just have to step in. So our sexual integrity support group is found inside the lion's den. And you can start that today with a 30-day free trial. So if you're ready to stop fighting alone and need that extra support, start your 30-day free trial right now at thelionwithin.us. That's thhelionwithin.us,

Sexual Integrity Support Group Invite

Chris Grainger 10:24

and step inside the lion's den. All right, now I want you guys to think about something, continuing this thought process around being overwhelmed. And that's the whole idea of strength and community. Like again, it tells us in Galatians 6 carry each other's burdens, and in this way, you'll fulfill the law of Christ. And I've felt firsthand how isolation is the enemy of excellence. 100%. And the surprising part is that some of the deepest isolations I've felt happen directly inside the church, right? And looking back, I can see why. The enemy loves to target the body of Christ. He just does. And what better place for him to show the vision invisibility than the church? And at the time to me, I was a pretty young Christian, it didn't make any sense. I was regularly attending, I was teaching in several areas, I was serving as a deacon.

Adam Rushing 11:24

At the same time, I felt unseen, as if it didn't matter. I knew something had to shift.

Chris Grainger 11:30

And uh I got a little nudge from the Lord. And when you get a nudge from the Lord, you better listen to it. Okay, don't don't suppress that. It could be indigestion, but it could be the Lord trying to get your attention, right? So I try I decided in that nudge to reach out to a couple of fellas and start a small discipleship group. And we kept it pretty light, you know. I I don't think we ever got past ten guys. In reality, it was only a handful that showed up consistently. But God did something in that little group of guys. Uh a few of us had walked through the grief of losing a child, ironically, in that small group. A few

Finding Strength Through Brotherhood

Chris Grainger 12:10

of us had walked through the scars of failed marriages. I'm just saying there was a lot of pain in that group. There was a lot of anger in that group. Hey, I was in it, so there was a lot of anger in that group.

Adam Rushing 12:22

But we leaned in and began to truly share and care for each other. And something something special started happening. We we found genuine friendship, love, and compassion.

Chris Grainger 12:38

And something I never found sitting in a pew. Just didn't didn't find it. And if you never felt that level of brotherhood, it's hard to describe. It really is. And the problem with men's groups, quote unquote, is so many of them just stay at the surface level, man. It feels more fellowship than anything. Uh we don't really get a discipleship, you know, and and it's more just a buddy system. And look, man, I like a sauce's biscuit just as much as the next guy, but like biscuits are not sharpening iron, right? Uh that's not where it happens. Because discipleship truly requires a deeper level of vulnerability. It means admitting struggles that most brothers just want to confess it. They hide it rather. They never want to confess that. Because confessing that you've been looking at maybe some stuff you shouldn't be looking at, or or maybe you're confessing that you're not as good a financial shape as as the world thinks you are, right? Or maybe you need to uh lay bare some areas of your life that that that really make you squirm in your seat. When you start trying to do that, it's hard.

Adam Rushing 13:49

It's hard to do that.

Chris Grainger 13:52

But honestly, looking in the mirror and offering an unfiltered report of your heart to trust your brothers in Christ is powerful.

Adam Rushing 14:03

Now it's also intimidating.

Chris Grainger 14:06

And quite frankly, that's why many guys just bail out of this. They never do it. But look, I'm just gonna be straight up. If you pursue these types of relationships, I guarantee you one thing you will find encouragement and strength, and your faith will grow more than a thousand surface-level conversations ever could. Now, look, that group you know that I was with originally has pretty much disbanded. I only got really two brothers left of that that that I call true brothers in Christ. So look, sometimes these things have been a flow. That's okay. For that season of life, it served me well. And I learned a lot of things in that season of life that led me to starting the line with business and have been able to serve now out from that small group thousands, right? It's it's crazy. But it starts with that small step, and it takes vulnerability, it takes being authentic as well. Like you can't come in there like you got it all figured out. You gotta be intentional, you know. And look, if you don't have this level of community in your life, don't play the victim card, bro. Don't don't don't do that. I don't want to hear your victim of why this ain't gonna work. Start small. It's okay. One or two dudes. Take some initiative. Be the kind of man that, be the kind of man, rather, that other men want to lock arms with. Okay? And when you do that, watch how God shows up and shows off. I'm telling you, it's gonna happen, right? But you as his son have to lean in, carry some burdens, and discover this true, the true strength in community. Okay, so look, again, the line within us, guys, I'm telling you, if you're looking for a place to get reps, this is a great place to do that. Hop into the lion's dense. Start coming to some of the weekly gatherings we have where you can start having conversations like this so that in the moment you'll be prepared. This is what we do. We equip you to be the man of the leader that God attends you to be. All right, guys, we're gonna keep digging into this. We'll take a quick break. We'll be right back. It's time to stop neglecting the body that God gave you. And we're done making excuses and watching discipline slip. So we decided it's time to rebuild strength the right way. And we have our Health Stronghold Support Group, which is a dedicated space inside the lion's den, specifically for men who are ready to stew their bodies with discipline and purpose. Look, this is not just for guys trying to lose weight. Let's just clear that up. This is for guys who know that energy affects you how you lead, your habits affect how you lead your family, and discipline affects your calling. And most guys don't need another workout plan or some extreme diet ideas. They need stronghold. They need to have a place where they can hear other men say that I fall into. I want consistency, not shortcuts. So inside our health stronghold, you're gonna find real conversations around physical health and discipline, honest discussions about habits, setbacks, and progress, and encouragement for men pursuing strength. This comes with a monthly call with one of our trusted guys as well. So look, it's not about vanity, it's about stewardship. It's a place to train without shame and pursue strength without comparison. You don't have to impress anybody, you don't have to have it all figured out. You just gotta show up. So the health stronghold is found inside the lion's den. And you can start a 30-day free trial today. So if you're ready to stop drifting, head over to thelionwithin.us. That's thhelionwithin.us, and hop inside the lion's den. Start your 30-day free trial and get started today at thelionwithin.us.

Health And Discipline Support Group

Chris Grainger 17:52

All right, fellas, let's keep rocking and rolling this idea of being overwhelmed. And we're going to talk about refocusing on what matters right now. So in the gospel of Luke, chapter 10, we get Mary and Martha, okay? And it's and you get uh Jesus is saying, Martha, Martha, why why are you worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed. Or indeed, only one. He's somebody himself. And uh there's some significant things for us to learn here. And it's and I'm gonna start off by saying this. It took me a long time to learn as a man that no, you know, is a complete sentence. It is, it's a complete sentence. And uh I need to start using it more. And what helped me embrace this uh was when somebody introduced me the idea and the concept of opportunity cost. And at its simplest form, opportunity cost is the value of the next best thing that you have that you give up when you make a choice. Okay? And so it's not all don't think of it as always good versus bad. Uh so it could be good versus better. Okay, and that and that's where things get tricky. It's pretty easy to separate good versus bad. I should do this, I shouldn't do this, right? It's hard when you have those you know, good decisions to make that they line up, they're both pretty, pretty good path options. And that realization forced me to be more intentional about my yeses. Uh I started to learn that a lot of my anxiousness and overwhelm that I was feeling stemmed from my default of always saying yes. And before long, you say yes enough, everything else starts to suffer. As a man, I found it hard not to help people when they

Mary And Martha And Saying No

Chris Grainger 19:33

asked me for it, right? Uh and to be honest, if I'm being like completely transparent, I like being included and being asked. I enjoyed it when people asked me for my opinion and my input. But that craving for validation quickly became my Achilles' heel. And I related a lot to Martha in scripture. I still do. I ran from meeting to meeting, I filled my days with activity, but I lacked true purpose. My mindset was simple. Uh I just gotta get as much done today as I possibly can. And the Lord gets me tomorrow. Guess what? I'm just gonna get up, rinse, and repeat, baby. Let's go. But after walking through some challenging seasons, fellas, I've learned to be far more cautious than what I commit to.

Adam Rushing 20:22

Because every yes comes with an equal no to something else. When I considered that possibility that my yeses might actually cause me to miss what God wants for me, I was an eye-opener.

Chris Grainger 20:39

And here's something God showed me. I had to stop focusing on climbing the next run of the ladder. And I needed to make sure I was on the ladder that God wanted to be on start with. Okay. And again, that purposeful pause. I don't want to chase promotions on accolades, I want to pour my heart into what he calls me to. And maybe you're you're listening to this this episode because the whole idea of isolation is resonating.

Adam Rushing 21:07

Uh and I can tell you what, you know, starting the line, some people would say that it wasn't a good fiscal decision.

Chris Grainger 21:19

Because it has proof it has not yet proven to be sustainable to take care of me and my family. But I can tell you this with uh unequivocally nothing compares to the freedom of walking in obedience to the Lord's call, and the Lord clearly called me to start the line within us. And if he calls me home today, tomorrow, 40 years from now, I know when I get to heaven, he's gonna say, Well God, well done, good and faithful servant. Because I took the steps of obedience when I started the lion. And I don't know where he's gonna take it, but I know I'm gonna I'm gonna keep keep taking the steps forward that he's called me to. And look, I'm not suggesting that you quit your job and start. Stop striving for excellence at work. That ain't what I'm saying. I'm saying make sure your priorities are aligned with God's purpose for you. Don't get caught up in the many things like Martha did, and miss the one thing that matters.

Adam Rushing 22:14

Sitting at Christ's feet, hearing his voice, and letting him direct your steps. That's what it's all about. That really is what it's all about. So start thinking about me, what ladder are you currently climbing? And is it his?

Chris Grainger 22:36

May want to consider coming back down and get on the one he's called you to. Alright, guys, I'm gonna take our last break. We'll come back and we're gonna finish this idea of being a guy who's overwhelmed. If there's one habit that can change your home, it's this when a husband prays with his wife. Not because it's a magic formula, but because it recenters your marriage under God's authority and care. And let's be honest, a lot of guys want to do it, but most don't know how to start without it feeling awkward. Maybe you've tried it before and it felt forced, or maybe you've never tried it because you don't even know what to say. Or maybe you're thinking, man, I'm not a pastor, I'm just a guy. And that's why we created this guide. It's our how to pray with your wife. Simple guide. It's biblical, it's practical, and it's designed to help you start praying with your wife in a way that actually feels natural. So it's a five-section guide, and it gives you a simple framework to get started. Okay, it makes sure everything is grounded in scripture, and it also has a powerful PDF that you can pull up whenever you need, especially when things get off, because they're gonna get off. That's normal. So this is all about reclaiming your marriage and reclaiming the spiritual leadership reigns of your home. Because praying with your wife is one of the strongest ways to fight for unity, to build trust, and to write the ship when life starts to pull you off a course. So if you're ready, get access today at thelionwithin.us slash guides. That's thelionwithin.us slash guides. And start unleashing the lion within at home by leading your marriage through prayer. All right, fellas, welcome back to the show. We are gonna finish this up with the whole idea of going from overwhelm

Simple Guide To Praying Together

Chris Grainger 24:31

to overcome. Okay, in Isaiah 40, it tells us, but those who have hope in the Lord will renew their strength and they will soar with wings like eagles. Love that, right? And as guys, we like to win. We just do. And there's something inside of us that longs to overcome obstacles, to beat the odds, if you will, to just come out on top.

Adam Rushing 24:54

And when I think about what it looks like to overcome, my mind goes to my younger brother. We were pretty close growing up until we got to high school.

Chris Grainger 25:08

Um and it was November 22nd, 1996. His best friend and his best friend's older brother were killed in a car wreck on the way to school that morning. And that tragedy rippled through our community, and it shook my brother big time. Uh, and it really set him on a destructive path. And he started running with the wrong crowd, and uh he was in a spiral.

Adam Rushing 25:37

It was uh it was challenging. And as his older brother, I stood by and watched it. I tried to pursue him, but I didn't really pursue him as hard as I should have. I didn't chase him down. His story got darker and darker, and more than once he nearly lost his life. And um eventually he ended up in a

From Overwhelm To Overcome In Christ

Adam Rushing 26:05

in the hospital, and he actually lost his leg below the knee. And it was during that season where um he realized the road he was on was headed to one path, and it wasn't a good one.

Chris Grainger 26:22

And one day he called me on the phone. I remember I was driving back from Georgia and he asked me a question about Jesus. And he wanted to know more about it, and uh I was pretty, I was a believer, you know uh I I definitely knew how I knew how to share the gospel. I I what I'd say I do some things differently these days, but I knew enough. So I walked through the gospel with him, and uh on the phone he was crying, and he made that decision to surrender his life to the Lordship of Jesus. And uh I know no matter what, whenever my time comes, whenever my brother's time comes, we'll see each other in heaven, right? Uh but here's the truth. Uh when he made that decision to follow Jesus, his life didn't somehow just get easier. Like the struggles are still there. And I think it's important to remind us that, okay?

Adam Rushing 27:20

Because many people are told a lie.

Chris Grainger 27:24

And they're told that following Jesus means cupcakes, cadillacs, and rainbows and Skittles, and it's just that ain't it. That's not the gospel. That's a prosperity message, and it's a false narrative. This is not right, okay? My brother had to hit rock bottom before he finally looked up to find God's strength. And when he did, things did start turning around. Yeah, he cleaned his life up for sure. I couldn't be prouder of him, couldn't be couldn't be prouder of him, right? Because he could have chosen to believe that his path defined him and let that fear just paraplize him to stay there. But instead, he chose to pat to follow God to step into that path of freedom.

Adam Rushing 28:07

Right?

Chris Grainger 28:08

And we have to remember, as guys, no matter what you're facing right now, the enemy doesn't have the final word. Enemy doesn't have the final word.

unknown 28:17

Right?

Chris Grainger 28:18

Not at all. His lies are designed to distract and discourage us and ultimately disengage us. But they'd have no power when we lean into Christ. None whatsoever. So, man, if you're weary, if you're defeated, if you're wore out, if you're tired, the most powerful thing you can do, the most powerful thing you can do is cling to him. Cling to Christ.

Adam Rushing 28:44

Find that strength in him, find that courage in him.

Chris Grainger 28:47

And that spirit of overwhelm that you're dealing with will be crushed underneath his victory. So I just want to end right here with to remind you to hold your head high, man. Hold your head high. Fix your hope on him. Remember this truth. Through Jesus, you are more than a conqueror. You are. And look, I don't know if anything that I've said in this podcast has encouraged you, has uh brought in joy to you. I really hope they have. I mean, writing these things, I'm just gonna be honest, guys, these things are hard to write, okay? Um I know, and and I and I know this is what God's called me to because of the way that He is blessing it. You know, I'm connecting guys all over the world every day. Hundreds of guys sign up with their email. It's crazy what God has been doing to the lion. And through his word and through the plans, and I just write from a real raw emotional place. And I hopefully you find value in it. You're not going to come to the lion and just hear me just spitting and telling you all the stuff that you're doing wrong. And here's five things you need to do to be better. No, that's not how I roll. Very different. I just just I roll with the open heart of transparency, things that I that I hurt with, that I struggle with, the things that I have learned from, and I provide it to you. And hopefully, if it you it's just if it's useful at all and it helps you in your discipleship journey, God gets all the glory. If it doesn't help you, it's probably me. It's probably somebody knows. But you know, I just want you guys to know I'm I'm here. If you're overwhelmed, I get it. I would just tell you, hop into the lion's den so we can have conversations, so you can be around all the brothers in Christ. So in those moments that when life hit, and you just feel that you know doom is certain, and there's just there's you don't know which way to turn, there are brothers in Christ who are ready to pray with you. That's been the greatest joy and encouragement for me. It's just knowing I'm not alone. So again, guys, the linewithin.us is where you find it. Our question of the week this week is where are you saying yes to quickly? Uh we've asked that on SKO podcast. We're asking it here. I'm gonna ask again on our member spotlight on Friday. Think about that.

Adam Rushing 31:15

And maybe I'm not saying don't say yes. I'm saying pump the brakes. Pump the brakes. And just make sure it's spirit-led before you take that next step.

Chris Grainger 31:28

Guys, hopefully you enjoy this. Again, the Bible app, open it up. That's the easy way to share the line within us as others.

you'll see that here coming out here in a couple days. Guys, if you're listening to this podcast when it comes out, they can come out on Friday for the member spotlights, okay? So, guys, give us a rating interview if you don't mind. Join the Lions in to support us there on the linewithin.us, thank you so much for hanging out today. Hope you have a great day. Look forward to seeing you next time and keep unleashing the lion within. Let's just say it out loud. Marriage is one of the greatest gifts that God can give a man, and one of the most consistent places where we can feel unsure of what we're doing. Even the strongest marriages have moments where you look at your wife and you think, you know what? I love you. I'm so committed to you. But right now, I have no idea what I should do next. And that's why we launched something new inside the line within us community. It's our very first support group, and it's for husbands, and we're calling it committed and occasionally confused. This isn't just a place for men in crisis. Though if you're there, hey, you're welcome. This is for any man who refuses to coast and wants to take his marriage from good to great. So inside, you'll find an active chat and a feed, honest conversations, and brotherhood that says, you're not alone. We've been there. Let's bring this to God and grow. And we're also doing a monthly couples night where your wife is invited because we're not letting the world set the agenda for our homes. Now, if you want access to this support group, it's very simple. Go to thelionwithin.us and join the Lions Den. Okay, that's thelionwithin.us. Start your 30 day free trial of the Lions Den community, and boom, you have instant access to the committed and occasionally confused support group. We'll see you inside the den.
