    How the Church is Losing Men—And the Path to Bringing Them Back

    Is the church pushing men away instead of drawing them in? Many men feel disconnected, judged, or excluded, leading them to seek community elsewhere. But what if the church is meant to be a place of restoration—not rejection? Listen in as we unpack the real reasons men are walking away from the church and, more importantly, how to bring them back. In this powerful episode, I sit down with Daniel Farley, a man whose testimony is both raw and redemptive. From being excluded from his church as a young man to spiraling into addiction, gangs, and deep personal struggles, Daniel shares his journey of brokenness, redemption, and discovering his true calling. Key Takeaways from This Episode:✅ The Church’s Responsibility: Are we welcoming or alienating the very people Christ came to save? ✅ Redemption Over Rejection: Daniel’s firsthand experience of being cast out of his church and how it led him into darkness—until God called him back. ✅ Leading with Love & Truth: How the church can effectively reach men, especially those who feel like outsiders. ✅ The Power of Community: The importance of surrounding yourself with people who push you toward faith, not away from it. ✅ Fatherhood & Legacy: The urgent need for strong, faith-driven men to lead their families well. "The church should be a hospital for the broken, not a club for the perfect." – Daniel Farley Daniel's story is a wake-up call for both men searching for purpose and churches seeking to disciple them well. If we’re going to turn the tide, we need bold men to step into their God-given leadership roles—at home, in business, and in the world. 🔔 Subscribe for more episodes on faith-driven leadership, resilience, and personal transformation.
