In this episode, Jason brings some inspiration and motivation to those of you who’ve been feeling beat up and are stuck down in the pit. You’re not the only Christian brother going through it. All of us go through various trials that knock us down and make us want to just throw in the towel on life (even the Apostle Paul). You’re not alone, but you gotta get up! You gotta get up and fight it! “NEVER QUIT” is part of who we are in Christ. Quitting is not an option. In the strength of God, you gotta fight it! In this episode, Jason shares some of his own personal and recent trials/struggles and he then pounds us with some inspiration and motivation with some hardcore tunes. Remember what Sir Winston Churchill said, “If you’re going through Hell … keep going!” #NeverQuit
In this episode, Jason dives even deeper into the question …
“How do I lead my family?”
It’s a question that Jason is asking God for himself, and he’s simply sharing what God is teaching him.
Here are four facts that Jason has dropped on us …
Fact #1 … God has appointed YOU (the man – the husband – the father) to be the spiritual leader of your family.
Fact #2 … There is no duty, responsibility, or mission in your life that’s more important or more sacred than your role as the spiritual leader of your family.
Fact #3 … Jesus is the ultimate and perfect example of how a man needs to lead his family.
Fact #4 … You (the spiritual leader of your family) must love God first and foremost.

That’s a question that I hear from a lot of young married men, and it’s a great question to ask. It’s actually a question that all of us need to be asking if we’re husbands and fathers (no matter how old we are). And it’s a great question to ask if you plan to one day be a husband and father. Heck, it’s a question I’m still asking and still trying to figure out. That’s what we begin diving into in this episode.
In this episode, Jason (with the help of Ice Cube) help you understand the importance of routinely checking yourself to make sure you are living in alignment with God’s Word. If you don’t routinely do that, you’re going to wreck yourself.
